Hardware

The Kawasaki Versys X-300 has returned to the Indian market after quite the hiatus, and not a lot has changed honestly. The powertrain sure sees a bump in power and we expect it to carry on with the same refinement, but for the price that it comes at, it lacks a lot of features, premium hardware and rider aids that its rivals offer for nearly the same price point.
