The revolving door keeps on spinning

I had one some years ago, Gen1 non-abs, I was looking to see if I still have some pictures of it but unfortunately this is the only one I have left.
Versys 650 is a special bike. It's got weird proportions, it's of a questionable quality, it's got a decent pull to it, yet somehow always feels underpowered. Ran mine for just under 80000km, it didn't want to downshift quickly by the end, not with the foot anyways, I had to come to a full stop in 6th and then switch my right hand to the clutch , bend over and downshift it back to neutral by hand lol!
Once I I was standing on the pegs and hit a bump a little harder and both foot pegs just broke straight off, had to ride home with feet on the rear pegs and shift without leverage.
It would pull power wheelies in first and second gear and sometimes if I'm not careful enough and pressed the front brake with clutch in it would lock the front wheel in an instant.
But it was light and agile and fitted me just right.
I loved it and still miss it and keep looking for a newer one, gen 2 or 3, before the Ninja front end.

Sorry, flashback caught me by surprise, I had to share it
