Take the snorkel off and you'll definitely hear it, the noise is quite loud.

Kawasaki engineer induction noise in, so you get that sound of going quick even if you're not really cracking on.

KAWASAKI ER-6 N-SPECIAL 650cc, 2010 10 Reg , Green, 1 Owner, Now anybody out there fancy a race Bike ? As its the end of the season our race bike is up for grabs and didn't our rider Dave Bell do well again this season, Mini Twin Champion again , 4th in Manx ultra lightweight with an average lap speed of 110.8 MPH and all from an ER6-N, well its just a bit modified with over £3000 of performance enhancing goodies. Where to start, Belly pan, Maxton rear shock absorber, profiled Kent camshafts, power commander, Arrow can, braided brake lines, 300 rear sets, Pro Tape4r bars and Renthal sprockets, All this adds up to a very compedative race bike in its class. Its in good condition one careful owner and it is registered so it can ultimatly be put back on the road if required. Now if its something a litte bit special your after and need to beat the boy racers away from the traffic lights this is the bike for you so why not come down and take a look its definatley worth it., All usual dealer facilities, £4,950
