Kawasaki keeps it simple with the Versys 650 - there is exactly one variant in India, the Versys 650 STD, priced at Rs 8,63,000 (ex-showroom). No colour choice confusion, no trim-level debates. For 2026, the bike gets the new Metallic Graphite Gray / Metallic Spark Black colour with green highlights, replacing the previous colour options.

That ex-showroom price of Rs 8.63 lakh translates to very different on-road figures depending on where you register the bike:

- **Delhi:** Rs 9,74,085 on-road
- **Noida:** Rs 9,91,006 on-road
- **Mumbai:** Rs 10,77,645 on-road
- **Bangalore:** Rs 10,60,885 on-road
- **Hyderabad:** Rs 10,60,385 on-road

The variation is driven primarily by state RTO (road tax) rates, which can swing from around 10-12% in states like Delhi to as high as 18-20% in Karnataka and Maharashtra. Insurance premiums for a bike in this price bracket typically run Rs 30,000-35,000 for the first year (third-party + own damage), and dealer handling charges add another Rs 3,500.

For EMI buyers, a standard 36-month loan at 10% interest on 80% funding works out to approximately Rs 22,000-24,000 per month depending on the city. Most Kawasaki dealers offer manufacturer-linked finance through Kawasaki Financial Services with occasional zero-processing-fee schemes during festivals.

Compared to its main rivals - Suzuki V-Strom 650 XT at Rs 8.84 lakh and Triumph Tiger Sport 660 at around Rs 8.95 lakh - the Versys 650 is the most affordable entry point into proper sports-touring in India, though the Honda NX500 at Rs 6.33 lakh makes a compelling case if you can live with slightly lower displacement.

| Variant | Ex-showroom Price |

One thing to factor in: Kawasaki's service network is concentrated in metro areas. If you're buying in Tier 2 or Tier 3 cities, confirm there's an authorised service centre within reasonable distance before committing - warranty claims and spare parts sourcing can get complicated otherwise.

The 2026 price increase of Rs 15,000 over the 2025 model is purely a model-year rollover adjustment. If you can find a discounted 2025 unit from stock, it's mechanically identical and represents better value.
