kawa dont have a stock?wahh...

actually kawa stop the production for er6n to give way for er6f.....
after survey for 4-5bike shop, found 1 new er6n show unit at 1 motorcycle shop in kl....
my luck i think.....fast2 i booking the bike and pay full at next day....
maybe tomorrow @ monday can ride that bike.....

I'm frequent travel from JB - KL on weekly basis, I found ER-6N is cheap option for high speed and comfortable motorcycle compared to kapcai, at lease can reach destination in 3 hours, now using car really expensive plus toll, and bus is slow, Car fuel + toll = RM100 , if using motobikes maybe just around RM40. Still surveying for ER-6N. Want to test but last time I went to shop they not allowed me to sit.

and pliss remember altho bikes are very fuel efficient, for er6n usually rm0.10 per 1 km @ 140kmh all the way.. but consumables will hurt your pocket,
with the rear tyre being the most expensive. Usually, a decent, sport touring type tyre such as battlax bt020 or bt021 can last you about 12000~ 15000km and it will cost you about rm500~520 a piece.. and not forgetting the chain and sprocket which can last about 15000~30000km depending on your care and maintenance and will set you back between rm400~600 per set.. and other than that the oil filter for this bike is quite expensive @ about rm50... hehe.. me? im a former er6n rider before i got in an accident 4 months back..

Dude, please share with us what happened.

I'm a B holder...fell in love with er6n..but aiming for Z750....

im contemplating on z750 or er6n..coz the difference is bout 20k. but ultimately i need a bike that i can use to commute to work and home everyday and not worry bout fuel or maintenance everyday.

how close is work from your office?
will you be riding on the highway?

1) the Z has ALOT of torque and will be fun on the smaller roads
2) the 6n has less torque but for highway cruising, you will save more petrol.

thats why i ask about your trevel distance.


the difference is only 20k.
But remember, you almost double the cost of maintenance when you compare 2 cylinder vs 4 cylinder bike

distance - dengkil to TPM

my work requires me to travel throughout west malaysia for IT support, but not planning to use the bike la..koyak oo..got company car

heavy usage around klang valley la.

6n - 2 cylinder
z - 4, right?

how much u think the cost would be ah?

assume standard service, engine oil & filter will set u back about RM 150 per service for Er6, for Z750 roughly u just double it..why?

ER6 2 Cylinder
2 bottle 1L Engine Oil (Rear tyre 160) 50 MPG (less fuel consumption)

Z750 4 Cylinder
4 bottle 1L Engine Oil (Rear tyre size 180, cost more) 40 MPG ( ++ fuel)

I would think that the ER6N was originally made as a daily city cruiser more than a long distance bike. The sitting position seems to be like a Blade or any other naked bike which can be quite uncomfortable for long distance without a few rest stops here and there... I know that mainly due to my aching knees riding from Johor to Penang.. hahaha

with ur distance from JB to Penang sure need few stop..

Er6 riding position were most comfortable for the majority. Unless u got urself a Goldwing

I goes back ipoh couple time in a week..i take me roughly 1 n half hour with 10 minute break for smoke

U must be riding more than 200KM/h i guess. Wind resistance not that good for naked. Get urself a nice Windshield..sure feel better

do they still have new units of the er6n? how much does it cost OTR and what about installment? tempted to get one

ehem..
the bike handling is light and nimble meaning you can flick the bike side to side during tight corner..
the acceleration is good, but dont expect it will accelerate like 1000cc bike, but it is night and day when you compare it to the other
beginners bike namely the ninja 250r..
the top speed will be 205kmh and if you are patient you can touch 210kmh
but ming you the bike is naked so you have to lie your chest on top of the tank to ride at that high speed..
usually for me, i always cruise at 140kmh but even at that speed i always get body ache because of the wind

add 10 ++ more k on top of that get zx6r

add 10 ++ ahh this will never end...

hi guys,

just got my er6n today. the torque is really powerful.

I have a question for the owners of er6n. Is your gearbox very clunky? Whenever I change gear, it is very clunky. 1st gear is horrible. It jolts quite bad.

I have read a few forums and it seems that it is not break in properly.. The problem is that this is a second hand bike (Year 2009 and mileage is 35k) . It is impossible that it has not break in properly yet.

I suspect maybe it is the engine oil. Maybe the previous owner did not use fully synthetic engine oil.

if the bike the 1st owner already ride beyong 35k.. i don think there is any method to break-in again.. the servicing i think u can check the service manual..

Hopefully can be resolved after my service..

try riding a 1000 cc kawasaki. Hear the sound when you change gear.
hell, try changing gear on a dry clutch ducati.

my point?
Its normal.
I dont know how engine oil can be linked to gearbox but I can tell you its not a problem.
Never was.
