Cool. It will be interesting to see how much the replacement for the out of production KLR 650 resembles the Versys.

Nice find! Is it me or did the pic not post?

I'm currently looking at the Z400 with very much interest.

I was not able to see the pic either. It has been a problem in many threads.

You got a great deal! I love the Versys, it’s an incredible motorcycle and a wheelie machine. I had a 2014 Versys650 and it was awesome. The only downside I had was seat comfort. On the Versys forum they came up with a cheap fix by raising the front of the seat. Didn’t work too well for me but did help a little. Enjoy the bike, it’s a hoot

Now that I've been actively hunting, at least according to CA prices, you STOLE that bike! Congrats! Cheapest 2012 Versys 650 I found was $5k.
