Default New Versys, West Texas
Hello all, I recently purchased a new 2011 versys. I couldnt stand not riding since my last bike, a ZX-10R, was stolen. So yeah so far I love the bike.

Going from the ZX-10R to the Versys is a interesting change.

Alpine is a very nice little town, and yep - you're really close to both the Davis Mountains and the Devil's River area. Nice places to play...
