This brief test drive of the Kawasaki ER-6 from the Italians at MotoTV has both models come off quite well in the testing.
The video is in Italian but in essence, they say it’s a versatile bike, and a real alternative for both city traffic riding and short trips.
The biggest difference is perhaps in the look, although some chassis and frame updates have been included, with more rigid suspension, reduced vibrations and greater overall comfort.
The 72hp naked is also said to be a great bike for women and one of the most impressive aspects is the cornering.
The bike will be available from January at 6,200 euros, an extra 500 euros for the ABS option.
