2007 Kawasaki er6n

[Sparks!]

Anyone got or ridden a Kawasaki er6n?

Got my eyes on a cat d 07 model.

Are they any good for touring? Comfy? Nice to ride etc?

What's fuel economy like ?

Had a ride on one a while back while i was waiting for my strom having a valve check. I was quite impressed. Nice and comfortable riding position which you could easy ride for a few hours before having any back ache. It also handled pretty well to (compared to the strom)

Plus the shock position just looks great

I rode one and found it ok, not amazing but ok.

Basically, my CBR was in for some work that was taking an hour or two so I started test riding random stuff.

I really wanted to like it more, I love the looks of the thing but personally couldn't get on with it that well, it felt very light and flicky. I think some of it was down to me though, I think given a few days worth on it and I'd start enjoying it more.

They do still tempt me now.

I've always been tempted by one.

The only major problem I've read about is corrosion, mainly in the downpipes.

Sounds great with an aftermarket exhaust though...

I have one and think it's great. Very upright riding position was the only thing I wasn't sure of at first. I'm used to it now but I'm thinking about getting a new set of handlbars so I can put a bit of weight on the front. Fuel economy seems really good (I think the engine was a new design). Can't tell you about the power since mine's still restricted, but torque is good. The only thing is it has quite a high stalling rpm (I read this is common in parallel twins where the pistons are connected to the crankshaft 180 degrees from each other). Suspension is quite soft but I believe that's common in budget bikes - it certainly makes it very comfortable.

Struggling to get over 100 is a good thing for someone like me whos used to 170-180 lunatic bikes
