Kawasaki Versys 1100 Launched, Powered By 1099cc Inline Four Cylinder Engine
Kawasaki has launched the new MY26 Kawasaki Versys 1100 in India at Rs. 13.89 lakh (ex-showroom). The premium adventure-touring motorcycle aims to provide riders with the ultimate riding experience across city streets and open highways. It aims to symbolise performance, endurance, and comfort.
Engine
Powering the Versys 1100 is a 1,099cc liquid-cooled inline-four engine producing 135 HP and 112 Nm of torque. The updated motor offers smoother power delivery and improved fuel economy through optimised gear ratios. Riders can also opt for the Kawasaki Quick Shifter accessory for clutchless gear changes.
Suspension
The lightweight aluminium twin-tube frame enhances handling and stability while maintaining nimble control. A 43mm inverted front fork and a gas-charged rear shock manage suspension duties. This long-travel setup ensures comfort on uneven terrain and sharp handling on highways.
Braking
Braking performance is handled by dual 310mm front discs and a 260mm rear disc with KIBS intelligent ABS. The advanced KCMF system ensures smoother transitions between acceleration and braking by managing cornering stability. Together, these systems improve rider confidence and control in all conditions.
Features
Electronics include a traction control system with three modes and selectable power modes for varying road conditions. The bike also features cruise control and a negative LCD display with a wide range of data. Riders can easily access information such as fuel economy, range, and even bank angle.
We have prioritised touring convenience with a USB Type-C outlet, 12V DC socket, and adjustable 65mm windshield. The ergonomic design offers a relaxed upright riding posture for long-distance comfort. Wide fairings and optimised aerodynamics provide excellent wind protection during extended rides.
Optional Accessories
The optional accessories consist of LED fog lamps, frame sliders, hand covers, and a larger windshield. Riders can further personalise their Versys 1100 for added protection and practicality. The motorcycle is available in Metallic Matte Graphene Steel Grey and Metallic Diablo Black colour options.
All authorised Kawasaki dealerships in India will begin deliveries for the motorcycle on October 15, 2025.
