2011 ER-6nL ABS
The ER-6nL ABS is at the very cutting edge of 
contemporary design, with bold angles and sensuous 
lines that scream attitude at every curve. But don’t be 
fooled by this motorcycle’s aggressive looks - the ER-6nL 
ABS is highly accessible to riders of all ages and abilities. 
Its compact chassis/engine combination, ideal rider 
ergonomics and impressive but controllable performance 
make the ER-6n ABS an extremely user-friendly 
motorcycle with enough sass to put a smile on any 
rider’s face.
649 cm³ Twin Cylinder DOHC Engine 
• The ER-6nL engine is tuned to provide a smooth 
delivery of torque which is ideally suited for learners and 
less experienced riders. 
• Parallel twin engine is the most compact in its category 
and helps reduce the dimensions of the entire 
motorcycle to keep it small and nimble.
• Tuned to deliver smooth, responsive power in the 
low- to mid-rpm range with a smooth roll-on response 
for negotiating city trafc.
• Triangular crank and transmission shaft layout makes 
the engine very short from front to back, a semi-dry 
sump oil system reduces overall engine height, while the 
narrow pitch of the chrome composite plated aluminium 
cylinders helps reduce engine width.
• Mufer with 3-way catalyser and bullet-tip opening is 
mounted below the engine to help lower the centre of 
gravity and aid weight centralisation. 
• 180-degree crankshaft plus balancer shaft for 
extremely smooth engine operation.
• Oil jets in the connecting rod big ends spray oil on the 
undersides of the pistons to aid cooling.
Liquid Cooling
• Wide radiator maximizes cooling capacity to help 
maintain consistent engine temperatures for long engine 
life and sustained power during hard use.
• Allows closer engine tolerances for more horsepower. 
• Coolant is routed through the engine cases to reduce 
external hoses.
• Includes a temperature gauge.
Digital Fuel Injection
• 38mm Keihin throttle bodies feature sub-throttle valves 
for optimum performance and rideability. 
• The sub throttles, located behind the main throttle 
valves, are controlled by the ECU so that the EFI system 
has more precise throttle response, similar to a 
constant-velocity carburettor.
• Precise fuel injection plus exhaust catalyser 
signicantly reduce emissions.
• Automatic fast idle system makes starting and 
warm-up easy.
Digital Ignition
• Digital timing advance enhances power.
• Spark plug mounted “stick” ignition coils are compact 
and help reduce weight. 
6-Speed Transmission
• Cassette-style transmission puts the transmission 
shafts and shift drum into a compact layout that is easily 
removed as a single unit from the cases for easier 
maintenance.
• Kawasaki Positve Neutral Finder just lift the gear lever 
from rst when stopped and automatically select 
neutral.
Trellis Frame
• High tensile steel trellis frame is small and light.
• Designed using 3-dimensional computer analysis to 
achieve the optimum stiffness balance for better 
handling.
• Narrow at the knees and feet for rider comfort and 
control.
Single-shock Rear Suspension
• D-shaped swingarm and offset, lay down single rear 
shock complement the frame design to create an 
integrated line owing from the steering head to the rear 
hub.
• Short, compact frame and engine design allows the 
swingarm to be longer, which helps improve overall 
handling.
Triple Petal Design Brake Discs with ABS
• Front brake calipers have big 27mm pistons for 
excellent brake feel.
• Petal design offers improved cooling and warp 
resistance.
• Same disc design as found on the Ninja ZX-6R and 
ZX–10R supersports machines.
• Front brake lever uses a ball-joint and revised pivot 
location to deliver a smooth actuation of the master 
cylinder piston.
• ABS function helps prevent wheel locking when braking 
hard in a straight line.
6-Spoke Wheels
• The 6-spoke design requires much less material 
between spokes so that the rim thickness is thinner and 
overall wheel weight is reduced.
 

Condence-Inspiring Cockpit 
• Stacked instrument cluster features analog 
speedometer with white LED back lights and a 
multi-function LCD screen with fuel level, digital 
tachometer, clock, odometer and trip meter.
• Low, narrow seat combined with the slim overall design 
allows riders to rmly plant both feet on the ground 
when stopped.
• Carefully designed ergonomics result in a natural, 
comfortable riding position.
