2011 Kawasaki ER6-n


At first, the silly sideblades and overly-ambitious styling looked horrible to me. The fact that it is functionally excellent prompted me give it another look, and I must confess it has grown on me over time. Many of the details are still too cluttered (especially the exhaust and lower engine shields, and that silly headlight) but it does have a certain panache. It certainly isn't boring or bland.

The 650 twin is classed as a 'beginner bike' and dismissed by many as 'just a midsized twin.' But let's put that in perspective: the ER-6n would have been amongst the fastest production bikes in the world 30 years ago. It is still no slouch. Some say it vibrates a bit too much, but once again, that is just being nit-picky by anything but 2010 standards.

There is nothing to complain about the ER-6n's handling, it steers nicely, corners and is reassuringly steady on the highway. Again, this score is a sign of how much bikes have improved over the last decade or so, and just how many excellent bikes are out there now.

Kawasaki KLX 110L The Best 2011

The 125cc four stroke machine provides plenty of power, yet it is still extremely high quality, making is an awesome machine to start mini biking on! The Kawasaki KLX 110L 2011 uses a similar motor to most other bikes out there. The BBR Super Pro is the best bike on the market, but will set you back around $6,000, slightly more expensive than $700!

The bikes have been designed and developed using a range of features from the Honda CRF 50, Kawasaki KLX 110 and the BBR Super Pro. KLX 110 have worked closely with their research and development team to ensure that their bikes are nothing but high quality. Next we'll talk about the quality of the machines. If you have any idea about the cost of the smaller machines then you'll know that this kind of price for a brand new bike is next to nothing.

Most retailers sell the Kawasaki KLX 110L 2011 at around $700-800, although is can be slightly cheaper. Let's start with the price; this bike is one of the cheapest on the market. Hopefully this will help you make a conscious decision as to what bike is the rightKLX 110 for you! This article will explain why this bike rivals the likes of the Kawasaki KLX 110 and Honda CRF 50 for quality, yet is so much cheaper.

Mini biking is getting more and more popular by the day, so it is no wonder you have stumbled upon the Kawasaki KLX 110L 2011.

Kawasaki KLX 110L 2011

They are extremely high quality yet they don't demand too high a So it goes without saying that all of their mini bikes are also up to standard. There is no doubt that the likes of Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha and Kawasaki all produce some of the best motorcycles on the market. Exceptional quality reasonable price!

Staying with established manufacturers such as Kawasaki and Honda is essential! People are attracted by the cheap prices, only to be disappointed when the bike turns out to have poor handling, and fall apart over every bump it comes into contact with. Companies that are not established and do not have the necessary tooling required to make quality products, seem to think they can. For some reason there seem to be a huge amount of cheap copies in circulation.

Quality is king! This article will help you understand why the KLX is one of the best mini bikes on the market, and why you should look at purchasing! Great! Do you just want to know which the best bike to start on is, but will last a long time? Have you searched throughout the internet and you are becoming confused by the amount of different bikes available?

Did you think about purchasing a Honda CRF50 but have now realized that it does not have the power output that you require? Have you looked at as many mini bikes as possible and think that the Kawasaki KLX110 is the right one for you?  Are you looking to get into the mini bike scene?

Top Kawasaki ZX-10R 2011

The current ZX-10R is the lowest revving literbike (aside from the Aprilia RSV4), so Speaking of the S1000RR, that’s the stunning new target Kawasaki has to aim for in this revitalized market segment. The new Ninja will have comprehensive instrumentation, including the ability to switch between street and track displays. A performance-based anti-lock braking system will be optional, but a BMW-like quick-shifter won’t be part of the package.

We’re told to expect a TC system that is better than the BMW package on the S1000RR, able to be toggled through more customizable settings. Perhaps the headlining news is that Kawi’s lawyers have allowed engineers to develop what might turn out to be a class-leading electronic rider-aid package, including multi-adjustable traction control. This design concept sketch shows the general styling theme of the 2011 ZX-10R, but the race version (based upon the production bike) seen at Suzuka deviates significantly from the sketch, especially the shape and design of the side fairing panels. Rumors suggest a production version of the new 10R can lap Kawi’s Autopolis test track seconds quicker than the 2010 model. It’s a total ground-up redesign.

And yet, despite the apparent lack of visible innovation, we’re told to expect a seriously competitive liter sized sportbike. Instead, we find an evolutionary literbike design of a traditional inline Four engine wrapped in a perimeter beam aluminum frame. Rumors of variable valve timing are also likely unfounded. The new 10R has neither a big bang firing order nor a horizontal placement of its cylinders, despite fanciful speculation in lesser publications.  First off, let’s dispel two wild rumors.

The New Kawasaki ER-6N 2011

The ER-6n uses softer springs and damping settings than its Neither camp will be particularly inaccurate, but to each their own. While some may find it edgy and aggressive, others will find its appearance curiously akin to an arachnid. Opinions of the ER-6n’s fairing free mug will likely find themselves divided into two columns aptly named, love it and hate it.

With all of the apparent similarities between these two siblings however, the biggest dissimilarity between the two is in the body work, or lack thereof in the case of the ER-6n. The Twin motor changed slightly for ’09 as well, with revised ECU mapping and the addition of a larger airbox that are naturally passed on to the 2011 model. The similarities don’t stop there, as both bikes also use the same 649cc parallel twin powerplant. The ER-6n (n for naked) shares the same steel trellis frame, offset lay down rear single shock with adjustable pre load, and tubular steel swingarm as the 650R, which was designed to This revised balance over previous 650Rs allows a degree of flexibility for improved handling, and is almost as light as a comparable aluminum alloy frame.

This bike has a maximum power 8500rpm and maximum 71.07hp torque of 66nm 6700rpm. liters capacity tank is 15:50. This box comes with Kawasaki’s regular six speed gear. 2011 Kawasaki ER-6n will of come in a variety of Different colors like Black, red, blue, white and many mores. Its Should weight be 173 Kg. That kind of naked bikes.  This motorcycle comes with a 649cc engine.

Kawasaki ER-6N CKD Naked Bike Price Expected To Launch 2011

You can see details about the specifications and features available on the 2011 Kawasaki ER-6n below. Sisitem injection combustion energy released to be smooth and the maximum, a slim chassis and aerodynamic system which has been in the wind tunnel test in order to know the capabilities of both the wind chop when cornering or when the maximum speed in a straight path that requires stability. That’s because Kawasaki ER-6n is made and designed with care and added a sophisticated technology that will give comfort and satisfaction for the ride.

All riders and a lot of people who saw said that Kawasaki ER-6n is a vehicle that big and strong with a powerful engine, fast on the track without fear of obstacles in front.

Kawasaki ER-6N 2011

Although the ER-6n's triple petal brakes aren't as flimsy or overly cutaway as some, you still The riding position is refreshingly upright although a bit of a pullback would help shorter riders, and overall the ergonomics are 90% spot on. For about the same money as the KLX250S enduro, you can buy the sweetest liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, DOHC 8-valve 649cc parallel twin engine in history powering a trellis frame, swingarm, chassis, and offset laydown rear shock suspension with 4.9 inches of travel lifted from the Ninja 650R, all in a light, responsive, exhilarating 441 pound package. At the mid six thousands MSRP (could that -6n refer to the price?) the ER-6n may just represent one of the best values on a Japanese street bike in the 2011 model year. Although the styling is questionable at best and the headlight which is a spray painted black leftover Viper pilot helmet from the original Galactica should be knocked off the bike with a baseball bat before wheeling it out of the showroom, you can't help but love the ER-6n for its thoroughly astounding performance and phenomenal value for the dollar.

The ER-6n is a 650cc naked bike that shows the rest of the class how to do it right. However, that really is the only minor quibble that can be had with this otherwise sterling machine. What happened, Kawi, were all the good names taken? Huh?

You go to the Emergency Room when you're 6-teen on it? What does the ER-6n moniker refer to anyway?  The 2011 Kawasaki ER-6n has a really unfortunate name.

Kawasaki Ninja ZX 6R 2011

The engine’s dual cams, 16 valves, 13.3:1 compression and 38mm And there’s more than peaky top-end power, too. Squeezing big power from small displacement has been a Kawasaki forte for many years, from the 350cc A7 Avenger to the 500cc H1, and from that first Ninja 600 to this latest ZX-6R, class leading power is a Kawasaki sportbike birthright. It all starts with the ZX-6R’s jewel like engine, a 599cc assemblage of everything Kawasaki knows about powerplant building, and the result of untold hours of testing and refinement garnered from dyno room to racetrack and back again.

It’s a perfect combination for street riders, track day junkies and racers alike, a flexibility that helps explain its many 600 comparo victories. Critics everywhere agree the ZX-6R runs and performs like a larger displacement motorcycle, and one that packs a rolling chassis that out handles and out suspends all others. That DNA begins with a 16-valve, DOHC inline four engine that’s everything a top shelf middleweight powerplant should be: supremely powerful, smooth, and blessed with hammer like reliability. It was an absolutely dominating 600 shootout performance and one sure to be replicated in 2011 due to the ZX-6R’s track honed DNA and seamless all around capability. Then ask the many top level magazines and web sites that picked the current spec ZX-6R as Best Middleweight.

Don’t believe us? And in today’s ultra-competitive 600 supersport market, where technology, racetrack success and streetbike acumen can change dramatically year by year, that’s saying a lot.  The 2011 ZX™-6R carries that tradition of middleweight dominance to a staggering level (one that would’ve blown minds in 1985).

Kawasaki GTR 1400 2011

The mirrors aren't ideal either, now showing Scrolling through the on-board computer means taking your hands off the bars too, to push a button below the rev counter. We panned the Honda VFR1200F for its range of only a little less than that, and the Honda doesn't even pretend to be a full-on touring bike – with the GTR this is unacceptable, especially when rivals cover 200 miles before you even think about a refill. The on-board computer is unusually accurate, but it only reads around 40mpg in general riding which, combined with the 4.8-gallon tank, results in a range to empty of 190 miles. Switching to Economy Assist mode makes it slightly worse and lends the engine a flatter feel, and while the economy does improve by about four per cent, it's still not great.

On top of that, the GTR's fuelling is imperfect, with a snatchy throttle off-on response that is irritating in traffic and at low speeds, and uncomfortable for a passenger. Indeed, Suzuki's cheap-as-chips GSX1250FA, tested last week, will feel faster and more relaxed at the engine speeds most riders will be using, despite making a mere 97bhp. It's fun, but when you're negotiating new, scenic roads with a load and maybe a passenger on board, it's not what you'll be doing or need. When it does, it's wildly fast, searing down the road like a comfortable missile.

In normal riding the motor spends its time in the 3,000-5,000rpm zone, but it's half asleep here and doesn't wake up until the top edge of those numbers.
