I just ran over some sites of Kawasaki sports engines and asked myself: "Do I like the new Er-6n?"
There are some significant changes concerning visual appearence, chassis and motor management, but it´s still the great 650cc eingine with parallel twin-cylinder and 72 hp. However, I really like the appearance and drive of my predecessor

But what makes the Er-6n 2008/2009 different?
Here some changes:

• Kawasaki changed the style. It´s a new aggressive racy style to make it - and I quote: "... a nastier bike!".
• They also made changes on the chassis and developed a new steel pipe construction
• the 2008/2009 version also has got LED rear lights and also headlamps were changed
• I really appreciate the new sportive cockpit design and the fuel indicator which was missing at my predecessor
• As far as i know they also worked on the motor management. It´s the same motor like the 2007 one (72 hs, 8.500 rpm, max. speed 162 km/h), but there were some modifications made, let´s call it "fine tuning". Fuel injection was overhauled for better response at lower speed ranges and that bike is also available with ABS, like the older version.

All in all the new Er-6n is the same a manoeuvrable naked bike and it´s fun to ride it, there are one some little changes and we will see if it´s right, wheter "vibrations" are minimized or not... however, I haven´t ever recognized such "vibrations" at my bike...
