Kwak ER6n

What does the group think to this then:

I can't make my mind up about it.

 

I can. Ugly as ****. I though it was a maybe a mini Z1000,
which would have been good, but that's horrible.

 

I dunno, I like the swingarm/shock/endcan set up and the wheels are funky
(note wavy disks). Overall though it doesn't seem to gel. Bit funkier than a
standard Er5 though.

 

Very similar to the Z-series and also hints of Cagiva. I quite like it.

 

"The Design Dream Team the world has been waiting for - Philippe Starck
and Joey Deacon - together, at last!"

 

Yeh, race style wheels, Buell style exhaust.. the clocks look a bit out
of place though. Not too sure about the head light unit either, I prefer
side by side lamp units.

 

Pretty damn funky, I think.

At least Starck has finally understood that bike design can not derive
from toilett brush design, as he did in the Aprilia Moto 6.5 shitebike.

 

You need to get some more uptodate mong references. Lots of the youngsters
on here won't know who Philippe Starck is.

Whoosh.

 

I like it, but I can't dismiss the suspicion that the engine will be a
horrible lumpy nail.

 

Hell yeah - I aksed my boy who the "Joey" he was rifferring to as he
could'nt be a ware of the original JD.

He tells me there is a popular TV show called "Freind's" with someone
thick on it called Joey, to which "Nnnnf! Joey!" riffers. I smiled and
left it there.

Well, it _is_ a kawasaki twin, after all... same motor as the 'new'
KLE600, d'you think?

flash says...

I like it, but I won't buy one until they're considered old shit, and
consequently very cheap.

 

Beav says...

Yeah, in the same way that a GPZ500S engine was meant to be half a
ZX10, which was utter bollocks.

 

I can. It looks like a good learner bike for poofs.

 

I agree, there's just something not quite right about it.

 

It's Van de Puup from the Ikea ads!
