Kawasaki Versys 1100 Unveiled, S & SE Variants Feature New Paint Schemes

Kawasaki has revealed the 2026 Versys 1100S and Versys 1100 SE, its latest updates to the popular sports tourer lineup. The introduction of Metallic Deep Blue with Metallic Diablo Black, and Emerald Blazed Green with black highlights, demonstrates a focus on aesthetics in the refresh. The premium S and SE variants exclusively feature these new paint schemes, skipping the base model entirely.

Engine & Suspension

The Versys 1100 continues to use its proven 1099cc parallel-twin engine, delivering 133bhp without any mechanical changes. The key features incorporate a bi-directional quickshifter, cruise control, and smartphone connectivity with voice command support. The SE variant further benefits from Showa electronic suspension for superior ride comfort and adjustability.

Expected Launch Date

Kawasaki India plans to launch the updated paint schemes before the year ends. Upon introduction, we expect a small price increase. These changes aim to attract touring enthusiasts who seek fresh styling alongside the Versys 1100’s trusted performance and touring capabilities.
