A prototype believed to be Kawasaki's new Versys 900 has been spotted testing in Turkey. It appears to use the Z900's 948cc inline-four engine, slotting between the Versys 650 and Versys 1100. The bike rides on 17-inch wheels, and Kawasaki has yet to officially confirm the model.
If they're carrying over the Z900's 948cc inline-four as-is, the current tune puts you around 123 horsepower as a baseline. The gap between the Versys 650 and 1100 was genuinely empty. Those 17-inch wheels suggest a road-leaning setup — never mind the history lesson, the spec sheet alone gets my pulse up.

Wondering if an inline-four tourer like this is beginner-friendly
With an inline-four I'd worry about weight and running costs
17-inch wheels should handle loaded touring well, looking forward to it
Finally something between the 650 and 1100, been wanting this gap filled
The Tracer 9 honestly still looks more finished
If it really carries the Z900's 948cc inline-four, ~123hp sounds like the baseline
It's still just a spy shot, too early to talk numbers
