Kawasaki has introduced its flagship adventure touring model, 2025 Versis 1100 SE LT. It offers three adventure touring models based on North America. Lightweight Versys-X 300, Weight Versys 650, and Top Versys 1100.


The 1100 SE LT offers premium features including electronic suspension, heated grip, cornering light, and USB-C charging port. The price of the 2025 Kawasaki Busis 1100 SE LT is $19,499, which is about 28.3 million won in our money.

The engine's displacement increased from 1043 cc to 1099 cc. DOHC water-cooled inline 4-cylinder, 133 horsepower. The new oil cooler located at the front of the motorcycle has improved cooling performance.





The engine stroke increased its exhaust, making it 3.3 mm (0.1 inch) higher overall. The key feature of the 2025 Versis 1100 SELT is the electronic package.


The TFT/LCD display provides three levels of traction control: three preset driving modes (sports, road, lane), a custom driving mode (rider).Two power modes (full, low), electronically adjustable suspension adjustable.

It also has Bluetooth smartphone connection software. The latest version offers voice command technology, allowing the rider to control the app hands-free. Provides access to general vehicle information, maintenance schedules, GPS, phone notifications, and vehicle tuning.




The chassis consists of a very sturdy aluminum twin tube frame, show and suspension, four-piston monoblock caliper, and 17-inch wheels.


The front brake system uses two opposite 4-piston radial mounted monoblock calipers and 310 mm discs.


The cockpit is large and comfortable, and the seat provides sufficient support and comfort for long-distance travel. It also comes with a cornering light as standard.




Manually adjustable windscreens in the 40mm range provide adequate protection, but both hands are required to adjust. The road was a mess with dents and cracked concrete, but the Versys 1100 had a perfect ride.


This is because Kawasaki's electric control suspension has the ability to quickly change the suspension setting immediately. You can adjust it to your preference and driving conditions with just a touch of a button. Immediately switch from Sport mode to Road mode for smoother suspension settings.

Thanks to the softer setting, you can put more load on the suspension and drive deeper in the stroke, improving feedback and increasing mechanical grip. However, the electronically controlled suspension is regrettable. Electronic suspension damping makes fine adjustments in the middle of the corner, so you can feel anxious.


The electronically controlled adjustment during cornering interferes with the rider's sense of road conditions. Rivals allow riders to disable suspension adjustments and work like traditional suspensions, but the Versys 1100 doesn't have such an option, which is a shame.

Instead, it provides a strong and gradual braking force during sudden braking, so satisfaction is high. The Kawasaki Busis is a motorcycle SUV. In particular, the 1100 can be said to be a sporty SUV. Satisfying riding is possible in various environments such as commuting, mountain roads, and national roads.
