2012 Kawasaki ER-6n launch: MCN take a brief, behind the scenes, look at the new Kawasaki ER-6n on the world press launch in Portugal.<br /><br />Having ridden the new ER-6n it's clear it has been improved in every area - both in its ease of use and excitement, its build and its style.<br /><br />To add fun Kawasaki has played around with the tried and trusted 649cc parallel twin engine. It remains virtually the same but they've improved the fuelling, via a new ECU and changed the underslung exhaust. This results in improved acceleration and a greater spread of torque.<br /><br />Styling-wise it's a complete makeover from front to back. Prices haven't been finalised yet, but it's expected to be about £5700, or about £50 more than the current model.<br /><br />You can read more about the launch of the revised Kawasaki ER-6N here: http://bit.ly/okLSGm <br /><br />Get the latest motorcycle news at http://www.motorcyclenews.com/<br /><br />Onboard footage filmed on closed roads.
