im guessing none of you took the time to read the features list on the 6r? lots of improvements plus general lightening and centralisation. not to mention the first fielding of showa's new fork design. the old one was a great bike to ride, just not the fastest one out there. looks like this one may fix the speed part.
my comments on the ex500, well do you really see room for another midsize modernised parallel twin in the lineup with the 650r around? kawi keeps old models around for a looong time but you cant seriously get mad when they ditch them for more modern gear
oh yeah, anyone whos complaining that they made it look like a baby ten oughtta remember that not too long ago the 6, 9, and 12 were nearly impossible to tell apart
