Kawasaki Ninja 650R History
Kawasaki Ninja 650R History & Generations Source: Wikipedia
. The naked ER-6n was not sold in North America until the 2009 model year.
Kawasaki released an updated Ninja 650R which includes new bodywork, mirrors, gauges, lighting, and a new tune on the same 649 cc (39.6 cu in) engine. Along with chassis and minor tweaks, an all-new bodywork design was introduced to the 2012 Ninja 650 and ER-6n along with a new 2-piece seat assembly… Kawasaki introduced the ER-6n in the USA. The ER-6f differs slightly from the Ninja 650R, as it features the passenger handlebars as standard (as does the ER-6n).
Kawasaki has updated the Ninja 650 with a new trellis style frame adding to the new lighter weight and better handling. With new sharper styling it has done away with the distinctive side mount rear shock for a more conventional one, it has also added a slipper clutch.
It has been replaced by the Z650 series.
