2026 Kawasaki Versys X-300 Launched At ₹3.49 Lakh - Gets Refreshed Graphics
Japanese bikemaker Kawasaki has launched the 2026 Versys X-300 adventure-tourer in India at ₹3.49 lakh (ex-showroom). Although the core mechanical and feature package of the Kawasaki X-300 remains unchanged from the previous version, the 2026 model receives updated graphics and colour options.
The 2026 Kawasaki Versys X‑300 continues to use the 296 cc, liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine derived from the Ninja 300 platform that pushes out 40PS and 25.7Nm of torque. The X-300's engine is paired with a six-speed gearbox featuring an assist and slipper clutch, and is compliant with OBD-2B emission norms.
The 2026 Versys X-300 features long-travel suspension with a 41 mm telescopic fork up front and a monoshock rear with 148 mm of travel. The Versys X‑300 uses a high-tensile steel backbone frame suspended off a USD front fork and a monoshock at the rear.
In terms of braking hardware, the 2026 Kawasaki Versys X-300 comes equipped with a 290mm front single disc and a 220mm rear disc, supported by dual-channel ABS. Tubed tyres remain standard, mounted on the 19-inch/17-inch spoked wheel setup. Ground clearance is rated at 180mm and the seat height at 815mm, while the fuel tank capacity is listed at 17 litres.
New visual updates include a refreshed single dual-tone colour scheme-Candy Lime Green / Metallic Flat Spark Black - with a new graphic treatment. The 2026 Versys X-300's bodywork retains the tall windscreen, functional luggage rack and upswept exhaust layout as well as the semi-digital-instrument cluster.
Yutaka Yamashita, Managing Director of India Kawasaki Motors Pvt. Ltd., stated:
"The Versys series has always embodied the spirit of adventure, freedom, and
exploration - Any Road, Any Time. From the newly launched MY26 Versys-X 300 to the
versatile Versys 650 and the flagship Versys 1100, every model carries the same DNA of
confidence, comfort, and control. The Versys 1100 stands as the pinnacle of Kawasaki's
adventure-touring expertise, setting benchmarks in performance, technology, and long-
distance comfort. It has directly inspired the development of the Versys-X 300, which
translates the same touring philosophy into a lighter, more accessible package -
delivering the thrill of exploration to a broader audience. Our association with the Tour
de France perfectly aligns with this vision, as both celebrate endurance, precision, and the
relentless pursuit of excellence. Just as the Tour challenges riders to push beyond
boundaries, the Versys series empowers our customers to explore every road with
confidence and passion. For every Kawasaki rider, the Versys is more than a motorcycle
- it's a trusted companion for adventure, a symbol of freedom, and an invitation to Let
the Good Times Roll."
