“Riding a new bike is always a matter of anticipation....”

written by casperdog777 on 08/12/2007

Good Points
Nice high riding style
Good design package
Proven ER6 engine
Good insurance rating
Economy is good
Long tank range for touring

Bad Points
No good if you are under 5'7"
The headlight is an acquired style taste
The brakes are apparently not so good but I find them OK
Standard screen could be larger.

General Comments
Riding a new bike is always a matter of anticipation. Will the experience match the desire? Here is the offering from Kawasaki, using the ER6 engine in a new frame and uprated long travel suspension. This is a a new sector bike which defies a logical slot in any category. It is a do it all rounder and the 64 bhp pumps out enough power for most sane people in the real world. The water cooled twin cylinder can quickly achieve a 70 mph speed and beyond is no problem. The bike feels responsive and eager and my first ride showed that the reviews were not professional hype from overpaid motoring correspondents, this is a real world bike for everyman (and woman for that matter. I would say that for me it is a good package and one I wish to explore much further and longer. Early days but it looks like this long legged baby and I will be friends for some time.
