Subject: [W650riders] Was. bring back the
w650 to the us - Petition. Now ER6 versys
Had to take my W in for its MOT test this morning, so while I was
waiting I took the Versys demonstrator out for a blat. Wow, very nice
bike. Certainly a lot quicker than the W even if lacking the lovely
gruntyness; but what really hit me was just how planted it felt on the
road. Absolutely rock steady. And the single front disc is in a whole
different league. I was very enthused, but as I don't have ?4395 (what a
bargain!) to hand I was very pleased that my W still felt pretty damn good
when I got back on it. The W seems tiny in comparison though; I felt so
much more visible on top of that flame orange Versys! If I can ever
afford a second bike again I reckon that'll be it. Pete
