presentation of the XJ6 600 Diversion F 2012
the XJ6 is certainly full of surprises. Admittedly, it is the successor to the basic XJ 600, and its destiny seemed to be the same. In other words, an entry-level model for medium-displacement motorcycles, to discover motorcycling, then to be to be scrapped after 6 months because the desire for more fun, more watts and a sportier chassis began to seriously itch. Well, no! The XJ6 is much more than that. The engine has gniak, the chassis is really nice, and what's more, it looks good too. With a Diversion variant equipped with a fork head, the machine is now open to touring and protection. And today, the range welcomes a 3rd version to continue the trend. And here, it's even more stylish, and almost smells of sport. Introducing the XJ6 Diversion F - F for Fairing. Here, the dress is complete and the machine is now fully fairing. The air intake ducts on the sides even give it a sporty look. It's a real eye-catcher, and the cladding takes protection to a whole new level. It's the perfect match for the sexy Kawasaki ER-6 F, whose recent redesign has boosted its sex appeal. Underneath its exterior, the Diversion F retains the diamond-type steel frame, the 4-cylinder with 75 horsepower in the connecting rods, and should largely preserve the ease of riding of the XJ with more traveler pretensions.
