Default 2009 Naked Middleweight Comparison: Kawasaki ER-6n vs. Suzuki Gladius


What brought you to motorcycling? Maybe you grew up riding 'cause your old man rode, so it was only natural you would, too. Or perhaps you came to the two-wheeled world a bit later in life, either out necessity for affordable transport or because a friend talked you into taking a ride on the back of their bike despite your previously having no interest in riding. You might even be one of the many recent moto virgins who finally reached a point in life where years of squirreling away enough discretionary coin finally granted access to two wheels.

Of the various paths that brought us to motorcycling, one common factor keeps us here: fun! The fun factor is either what first wooed us to bikes or, like a bad drug addiction that you wouldn't have unless a "friend" introduced you, it's what kept you hooked from the first taste.

If you're in the market looking for that next injection of bike or have completed some rider training and are ready for bike numero uno, boy, have we got a couple fun bags for you! To ice the cake, these new middleweight machines even offer some sensibility to go with the laughs.

I like the headlight better on the gladius but I like the body more of the Kawi

Agreed. The ER headlight looks like a retarded cyclops.

I like my ER-6n. The it maybe ugly in the nose but it's one of the things that give it character.

I like Kawi's penchant for integrated front turn signals on these newer bikes -- most notably the new Ninja's. They help clean up the look of the bike so much, IMO.
