u have to haggle with em on freight tho- the set freight price of abt 20 pounds is a bit high.. i emailed em, and i think i paid 10or 12 pounds... as i said, it was still cheaper than buying here.... and a HUGE range of bars!!

I'll get some photos up once the bike is clean (so don't hold your breath...).
Yes, that was me contributing to the suspension debate on ninja650.com, a useful website for ER6 riders, especially when trying to source parts from overseas. I can vouch for both the stores which feature heavily there.
Possum, the plan is to race the bike next year in the Twinsprints class in NSW, though a potential move to QLD might knock that on the head. In an ideal world, I'd like to try a Versys as a road touring bike; it's not that I'm a die-hard Kawasaki afficionado (the ER6 is my first Kwak), but I do like the upright position and intent of the Versys, and a 650 twin gives me all the oomph I need in a country where the speed limits are draconian, driving standards appalling and the road surfaces crap (I'm a Pom by birth and spent a lot of time riding all over Europe, God I miss that).
I am surprised to see so few ER6s around, I suppose it could be compromised by its image, something that the SV650 has managed to overcome (largely by being another bloody good bike). Each to their own....

I didn't import the bars, as a generic item, there are loads available locally, at a reasonable price. The Ventura bars came from Motorcycle Accessories Warehouse in Castle Hill, Sydney, an outfit I can recommend for discounted parts and for their excellent workshop.
