Well after 2 months patiently waiting, at long last i got my hands on the yamaha yzf r25. Been riding it for almost a day. Got to say it handles rather well and i love the blue silver. Cant wait to spend more time with it!

Hi, when is your last cruiser ride?
My basic understanding on V.650 is same engine as ERN6, quite alot "interesting" feedback from other forum about its reliability and durability.
Dont think is good move, first will be license eligibility and road tax issue.  smile.gif
Probably end up not selling much caught in between 250cc choices and some middle tier selections like Honda cbr 500. They will have big time figure out suitable pricing.

Agree to all statement above.
Both are very powerful bike and must be treated with respect.

Ridding a ZX6R myself for a couple months now.

Point you may be interested:

1. Hand numbing is a killer. Starting new, riding for 30 minutes my palm is crazily numb.
Now I can do 2 hours. But still numb
2. Engine heat is also a killer. Riding at high noon in a jam, you feet will be roasted to crisp.
The radiator fan only kicks in at 100C!! (any guru knows how i can throw in a manual switch?)
With the ambient temperature at 3+C and stuck in a traffic jam with the hot air blows directly on ur feet.
3. No fuel gauge sweat.gif

Comparing ZX6R with ZX10R, if you have the budget, gut and passion, go for 10R.
With additional 20k on the price tag, u get extra to 6R:
1. Steering damper (ohlins cost about 6-8k if not mistaken)
2. ABS (priceless, 6R with ABS needs to place special order in malaysia)
3. And ofcoz additional POWER
4. and sexier look.

Ride safe thumbup.gif

i find the ZX6R a damn good looking bike... which year model is yours? care to share some pics bro? tongue.gif

also, ABS for zx6r, would you know what the rough additional cost be?


also, regarding the radiator fan manual switch, i found this on youtube. not sure if it helps though...

hi guys, since not much is going on... just wondering what are the safety equipments/tools that you guys use when parking your bikes, be it at office or malls... or even at your home? (since crime rates are on the rise!)....
