    Carver's ER6n-BINNED!

    IM gutted.
    i sold the ER6n and within a week it was binned into a car. (by the new owner)
    the bike that i did 20,000 hard KMS in 7 months on, that took me around taupo racetrack, on a few coro loops, on gravel, to work, everywhere really, now has bent forks and a folded disk.
    THE DRZ SM is good, but that ER6n has to be my all time favorite bike.

    here's what i did to it

    KLX110 renthal bars
    Muzzy exhaust.
    Conti Sport Attack tires.
    Heated Grips
    Pack Rack

    and thats it, this bike was awesome, and i recommend one to anyone.
    the brakes and suspension aint the best, but the bike can be a real sportsbike eater in the right hands as a few KB'rs have found out.
    it had been decked alot, but never down.

    goodbye ER6n, you will be missed.

    Ahh shame about that, minters bike it was when I saw it that time down 'Tron way... never mind, least it got used for a while in the way it should be used!

    I once bought a car off a guy - and 2 weeks later he was killed in a motorcycle accident.

    Careful out there next week.......

    Dude Sucks.
    Maverick and I have just thrown Micron exhausts onto our er6's (albeit 6f's) and next upgrade is either some flat renthals or faux clip ons. We both love the bike, I've had mine for almost a month and totally know how you feel, it's the funnest bike I've ever had, now it's got a massive growl to go with it!

    RIP ER6

    it never really bit me, and i rode it fucking hard, like real hard!
    they work well as a good alrounder

    its a cool bike, they are very under rated, mine was a ex demo, a 05!
    i remember hooking it through the gears on the back wheel, doing burouts with 120+ on the rear wheel wile the cops were being called down the road.
    good on gas too, i got 21kp/l regularly

    Heard some good things about the Arrow exhaust, but also heard some nightmares about installing the R&G sliders. Good luck! hehe

    I have a full Givi set up on mine, the indicators had to be mounted higher but don't look too out of place, it's amazing how much this bike can do, blasting the back roads, easily keeping up with the bigger bikes (rider dependant hehe), commuting a breeze, or taking an abundance of luggage, it's all so easy and _fun_ !

    I can fit 4 helmets and a crapload more around them with all my luggage on, that's a lot of boxes of beer
