Radical R-Series design
Developed using latest R-series design, the YZF-R6 features an aggressive face incorporating hidden recessed headlights and dual LED position lights that reinforce the radical R-series family look.
With its sharp bodywork and owing horizontal lines, Yamaha’s ultimate 600 supersport has pure race-bred DNA running through its veins.
Aerodynamically efficient bodywork
The aerodynamically efficient bodywork is one of the key features that’s enabled the YZF-R6 to dominate the World SSP Championship in recent years. Developed from the proven R-Series family design, the dynamic looking front cowl and race developed screen underline this strong R-series DNA and contribute towards its outstanding performance.
High tech electronic control systems
Featuring a wide range of high-tech electronic systems, the YZF-R6 is the most sophisticated 600 supersport bike ever created by Yamaha. Equipped with a 6-position Traction Control System (TCS) as well as a Quick Shifter System (QSS) for clutchless upshifting, and D-Mode adjustable engine power, the YZF-R6 gives you ultimate control.
YZF-R1 type front forks
From the day that we launched the first R6, this extreme supersport has continued to set the standards for handling agility and lightweight controllability. To ensure that this winning 600 continues to lead the field it’s equipped with fully adjustable YZF-R1 type 43mm forks with R6-specific settings that deliver excellent handling performance on the street and track.
Ergonomic riding position
Your body position – and the ability to shift weight quickly and easily – is one of the most influential factors in achieving ultimate handling performance. Featuring a slim seat with a low fuel tank and narrow magnesium subframe, the YZFR6’s ergonomic riding position enables you to move freely about the bike when braking, accelerating or cornering.
Slim magnesium subframe
Manufactured from CF die cast magnesium, the rear subframe contributes towards the bike’s light weight and enhances mass centralization – while its narrow dimensions ensure excellent ergonomics. By allowing you to mold your body closely to the chassis, this design gives high levels of controllability and contributes towards aerodynamic efficiency.
