Thanks, RKC. I have ridden both the Vstrom and the Versys and it was a bit of a toss up for me. I was leaning toward the Versys just a bit because price is a little lower for both the new and the used models, seat is a little lower (but I think I need to get a lowering kit for either the Vstrom or the Versys as I am only 5'8" and these are both pretty tall bikes), and I just liked the Versys style a little better. Good article to which you directed me. I had been on the stromtrooper site, but had not caught that particular review. I did follow a guy's journal on kawasakiversys.com for a while. He is a photographer/writer who is riding a Versys through each country in Central and South America. Quite an adventure!
