2009 Suzuki Gladius Comparison
The Suzuki Gladius ($6899) costs $500 more than the Kawasaki ER-6n.
Like the Kawasaki the Suzuki uses an underslung muffler. It doesn’t look as cool and it’s quieter than the ER-6n.
The Gladius’ ergonomics package is a good comprise between both short and tall riders alike.
The Suzuki's 3.8 gallon fuel tank feels bigger dimensionally than the ER-6n.
The Gladius employs an ultra-bright headlight.
The Gladius uses perfect instrumentation that is very easy to read day or night.
Without a doubt the Gladius is a very well balanced motorcycle and easy to wheelie.
The Gladius simply lacks cornering ground clearance as compared to the ER-6n.
The Gladius’ suspension feels a bit softer than the ER-6n.
2009 Suzuki Gladius Comparison
A liquid-cooled 645cc V-Twin engine powers the Gladius and it feels much more peppy than the Parallel-Twin in the Kawasaki.
The Gladius comes with Dunlop Sportmax Qualifer tires and they are very sticky.
