I've spent some time on a ER6N which is essentially the same thing. After riding my bike (ZX6R) and jumping on this thing, few things I noticed. Its not a supersport and I shouldnt ride it like one. After market exhausts on these things are LOUD, runs out of puff at 10k so most of your 'fun' riding will be done around 8k, normal riding from 4k upwards. Its 2 and a bit seconds quicker down the 1/4 mile than the 250, bit over a second slower than the ZX6R.

Took me ages to, and I didnt really get used to the handle bars, felt like a push bike to me...

Great bike, but if was looking for something similar seating I would have gone the Z750 which is an animal (4pots compared to 2pots) in comparison. In short ER great bike for commuting, and still having fun. But dont expect a supersport feel, 250r had more of that then this.

Oh and as for 'power getting you out of trouble' it will get you into more than out of it. Careful and well practiced riding techniques is where its at, power means speed which means less time to recognise, think, react... just my 2c (as I hop onto my silly fast supersort) Tongue

+ ummmmmm,...................oh crap, I lost count!!!!!!!!!

I'm seriously looking at the 650R as well as a good bike for riding 2-up and cruseing around, the 250r will still be there for the twisties.

Heard ya'll on the riding skill over unnecessary power.  In accordance with the MSF course I've taken twice, I try to practice what was drilled into my head: SEE - Search (ahead, beside and behind you), Evaluate (WTF is happening ahead, beside and behind you) and Execute (tke action safely instead of grabbing handfuls of throttle or brakes in reaction to the WTF situation)!

easterly, that's a great way to put it. I think they should include your description in the MSF, people might actually remember it then! Tongue
