Expected to compete against the new Suzuki Gladius, Honda CB600 Hornet & Kawasaki ER-6n, the XJ will fill the void in the market under the FZ6.

XJ6 N is basically a XJ6 Diversion with it’s faring removed and replaced with a beacon type headlight we have seen earlier in the FZ6 N & FZ1 N.

The rest is identical to the XJ6 Diversion minus the fairing, a multitube steel chassis, which holds the engine cylinder head and crankcase on his rear,
