2008 Yamaha R6 YZF-R6 YZFR6 600

The Yamaha YZF-R6 is full of innovations and technology not found on other middleweight Supersports, designed to be the most exciting bike to race on the track and the most fun to ride on winding roads. Even at full lean, it allows the rider to dial up the throttle and sling shot out of a corner, offering confidence, agility, performance, and fun. It showcases Yamaha’s latest sport bike technologies, including the YCC-T fly-by-wire throttle, MotoGP-inspired straight frame design, and exclusive electronically variable intake stacks, taking super sport riding to a new level. The R6 is track-ready and street-smart, featuring a screaming, 15,000-rpm-plus fuel-injected four-cylinder engine in a taut chassis that snaps from upright to full lean instantly, making it a great street bike too. Packed with tech from world championship race programs, it enhances the man-machine connection, giving riders the confidence to exploit their skills with track-developed electronics like YCC-T for ultimate acceleration and YCC-I for bigger power and torque, plus a race-developed chassis for razor-sharp handling.
