Who it's perfect for

For those who use the Versys 650 as it was designed to be used: commuting, traveling, weekend trips. The Versys is tall and narrow, and a standstill fall or a low-speed slide will first hit the crankcase and plastics before anything else. The KN4114 is the specific protection provided by the Kappa catalog for this series, and it costs a fraction of what it would cost to replace a crankcase.
