In this use, as in their original intended purpose, it helps to keep a wide variety around so that you can have an appropriate size or style for nearly any situation.

Anyone else here ever used a spent shell casing for a punch?

#ygrps-yiv-1003446498 p {margin:0;}I've seen pictures of people who have put DS tires on 'em and take them off-road.
Personally if I had one, I'd use it AS-IS. It would be a great little street bike that you wouldn't have to worry so much about pot-holes and bumps. That was the biggest problem I had when I was commuting on my old Seca II. It was a nice handler, but even a medium-sized bump in the road translated into loose teeth. The Versys seems to be a nice take on a street bike. Grippy, quick and enough travel to soak up L.A. streets.

I have thought of trading Concours for a Versey but like the driveshaft on the Connie although it is a bit heavy around town. I sure like the Versey especially the new black / flat black one. Seems to be a nice size bike. Not too big or too small and probaly do gravel roads pretty good.

I hate it when I do this. As soon as I hit "send" I find the relevant data.
The Versys' data from MCN:
Motorcycle Consumer News Versys test- November 2007:
Measured top speed ........117 mph
0 1/4 mile ..................12.96 sec. @ 99.15 mph
0 60 mph ....................4.86 sec.
0 100 mph..................14.19 sec.
60 0 mph ........................127.9'
Power to Weight Ratio ........1:7.72
Speed @ 65 mph indicated......60.8
Maybe this is the bike you're looking for?

The Honda Transalp has a listed top speed of 105mph. The Moto Guzzi 750
Breva has a listed top speed of 110mph. OK since the most I've gotten out of
my klr at this altitude is maybe 95, those bikes would have just the extra
power I need. But wait !! The klr listed top speed is 108mph. There have
been discussion here on this topic. I don't remember anyone going over
100mph except down hill. Are the Transalp and Breva top speeds ridiculous as
well ?
