same for my ER6F

hrm, if you're afraid of the falling bit (jatuh bodoh, not jatuh accident) then you might want to get something cheaper (in between)


its very easy to ride bro, no worries.

why is it too good to be true?

no its not.
you see, the 250R was made to look like a sports bike. Nothing wrong with that.
But its still a 2 cylinder 250cc with a very casual riding position.
I dont have pictures but if you look at the power band and torque graph you will see that this bike is meant for city riding/confort/easy to use power.

This bike is not actually new, its one of the latest in the ZZR family.It had many names all over the world,
Ex250, GPZ 250, ZZR 250

But rest assured, its not a superbike.

Alot of people argue what actually is a superbike.
in summary, superbikes are:

1. bikes that are for racing ONLY and MUST have a road version.
2. if 2 cylinder (850-1200 cc) if 4 cylinder (750-1000 cc)
3. must be 4 stroke engine.

example,
a Yamaha R1 is a road bike. You can modify it extremely and put it into the superbike category (take out silencer, take out lights, take out mirror etc etc)

You know MotoGP? These bikes are not for the road and do not have a road version. They are NOT superbikes because they are considered different. Yamaha M1 is a bike only made for the MotoGP.
Something like F1 racing. F1 car is not the same as Supercar correct or not?

duuude, when one of my friends saw my FZ150i, they asked me , "this one, considered superbike right?"

I really dont know if they were "perli-ing" me or really asking honestly.

No harm asking them if its on sale right?

Haha Later they'll ask me to go to ask Naza World, -___-

Just that, if you go to Naza world in PJ, they also have this small area selling ducati stuff. So chances are its the same ducati franchise in KLCC.

Anyone tried the Z750R?

I have second thoughts when riding naked bikes. My frame is 184cm so I dont know if its suitable or not. Not like can test ride on highway.

thanks mates.

Makes sense. Speed isnt my thing. I just enjoy quick overtaking and bends.
I also ride in the city alot.

ER6F
touch the ground + knees are bending.
184cm


R6 seat is slightly taller if I'm not mistaken.

hi Bro

While its true that the 650F looks more like a supersport (only slightly) the added fairings really dont add much to the aerodynamics of the bike. As some have mentioned here (and speaking from experience as I'm about 184cm) the upright seating of the ER6F really makes it a faired-street bike.

The 650F and 250R are bro and sister, they have the same purposes.
Everyday Ergonomic Riding.
Suitable turning radii for traffic jam scenarios
and good fuel economy.

The naughty naked sister is the 6N. This one probably shines less during highway runs but if 130-140 is what you like doing, it will do it just fine. (strengthen your arms a bit)

Dont worry about the in-line 2 cylinder sounds because once you reach 5000-7000 rpms it still screams like nobody's business (stock exhaust)
Parking the bike maybe you wont be showing off the sound so much.

So I fully support getting either of the ER's. They're really great for beginners.

P/S: Bikes of any kind have crap aerodynamics. Not because of the bike, but because there is a rider on the bike. So really the bigger factor in determining how smooth and fast the bike can go, is its power delivery and those fat tyres.

I liked both. Just that there was no stock of ER6N at the time, and I bought my machine 2nd hand. So thats mine in the pic.


Do you plan to change pipes sometime later? Maybe on my last year of contract I'll change to an LV.

33k no insurance. I just carried over insurance from previous bike.


33k, 4 months old, 6000km.

If he were sincere, he wouldnt censor this number plate. after all, if nothing to hide, why need to censor?

I think I've lost my desire for high speed. Maybe I'm old? just 27 actually.
I started to like motorbikes when I was 7. When I bought (grandmother bought) a diecast model Harley Davidson Fatboy for me.
It was heaven. LOL


Till today, I've always had a thing for cruisers.

If money wasnt an issue, I'd like to try out the 883 series.
But in Malaysia this is just a dream. I actually plan to move elsewhere to settle down with my ma'am. There, prices are pretty much the same as in the US however maintenance is still not cheap.

But by then, my backbone probably wont be happy with an 883. So I might like to try the Super Glide series.

Guess this is best to be in another topic, not in superbike lounge.
