But the bike has some great points. Its nimble, it actually feels like a SS bike except for the speed. Get 50-60 mpg easy, can go about 200-250 miles on a tank easy. Glad I started on a 250, then went to the ER-6n. |

Def a good decision, its such a great way to build your skill set before moving up. I've wondered about the hyo's, we dont hear from many folks that have them. I figured they'd be competition for the ninja 250 but they just dont seem to have taken off.

They were intended as competition, but hyo never put the effort into supporting the product to the point where they were competitive. Even under warranty the dealers didn't like working on them. Its a shame, because like I said, it was a fun bike, and they are great looking.

Hi new guy! Welcome, hope you stick around and post. For some reason all the new people that post an introduction never stick around.
