According to my book anti-seize

My book says anti-seize, my book also says once bearings are removed you toss them and replace with new.

What book is your book? What type of bearing?

Clymer is not reliable.
One time in the early days we had to race our back up bike because we trusted specs found in a Clymer.
You can trust the factory book most of the time. Clymer... Never!

Do you have a problem with Kawasaki manuals?
Versys 650 service manual
Note
Do not remove any bearings for inspection. If any bearings are removed, they will need to be replaced with new ones.

Yes, you are correct Sir... For the type of wheel bearings in your Kawasaki.
Needle bearings in your transmission, not so much.

Fun fact:
According to the parts diagram for the 650, the clutch bearing is a bushing, not a bearing. ?
