Kawasaki has revealed the MY2019 Versys X 300 at the
EICMA motorcycle show in Milan, Italy. The Versys X
300 comes in dual tone paint scheme that is available in two options - Metallic
Moondust Grey / Metallic Flat Spark Black and Candy Lime Green / Metallic Flat
Spark Black.
As part for 2019 upgrade, the Versys X 300 now comes
with a black finish to the fairing and the headlight mask. The Versys branding,
similar to the 650 cc and 1000 cc models, runs from the sides of the fuel tank,
onto the fairing. The side and the rear panel, too, get a black finish, while
the fuel tank features Metallic Moondust Grey or the Candy Lime Green paint.
Unlike the MY2018 model, the latest version comes with black colour for the
wire spoke wheels.
The motorcycle retains the 19-inch front and 17-inch
rear wheel combination that is aimed to offer a balance between on-road and
off-road riding. The front wheel is wrapped in 100/90-19M/C 57S section tyre
while at the rear there is a 130/80-17M/C 65S tyre. Globally, the 2019 Kawasaki Versys X 300 is
available in both ABS and non-ABS variants.
The changes are limited to visuals, and the MY2019
Versys X 300 continues to use the same mechanical specifications as the 2018
version. Thus, the motorcycle draws 40 PS of maximum power at 11,500 rpm and
peak torque of 25.7 Nm at 10,000 rpm from its 296 cc, liquid-cooled, 4-stroke,
parallel twin cylinder, DOHC, 8-valve, fuel-injected engine.
