Yamaha YZF-R6 2008The Yamaha YZF-R6 is packed with advanced engine and chassis technology from our World Championship race programmes, allowing you to take your riding excitement to the next level. What makes the R6 so special is that it is designed to enhance the man-machine connection, enabling you to exploit your riding skills to the full.
As you would expect from one of the most advanced 600 supersport bikes, the R6 comes with the very latest track-developed electronics. Our YCC-T chip-controlled ‘fly-by-wire’ throttle delivers the ultimate acceleration, while Yamaha’s unique YCC-I electronically-controlled variable intake funnels make for higher levels of power and stronger torque. The race-developed Deltabox chassis ensures razor-sharp handling on the road and track – and the radical aerodynamic bodywork benefits from a low frontal area for awesome acceleration and top end speed.
