Has anyone test riden the ER6 yet ?

Has anyone had a test ride yet - can you post what you thought of the unfaired one. I have a k2 but quite fancy one for a more sit up riding position and something easy for a novice + short ****. The only thing that puts me off a bit is will be loads more windy due to lack of fairing I don't go over 70 though as I've never rode anything other my SV and the cb500 I past me test on. I'll probably have a test ride when the temp. picks up a bit (just a fair weather biker I'm afraid)
Claire..

Ive not ridden one, just sat on it outside the dealer. the riding position is good and the pegs are a bit further back than my S model.

I did ride the Z1000 with its little fairing and was surprised how little wind and turbulence hit the rider, maybe Kawasaki have got the design right

You wont notice wind blast too much until arround 70mph, so I wouldn't worry too much. Haveing gone from a fared sv to a speed triple with no fairing, it gives me a bit of a hint now and again that i should slow down or get blown off!
