The name is Yamaha YZF-R6, a Japanese demon on two wheels born on the realm of World Super Sport Racing Program. Even if the 2007 version was a nearly perfect motorcycle, for 2013 Yamaha decided to improve it even more. A few technical tweaks, some design touches and a slightly increase performance help the YZF-R6 stay in front of the 600 cc pack.
Powered by a compact, lightweight 599cc DOHC 16 titanium valves, liquid-cooled, four-cylinder engine mated on a magnesium subframe, Transmission 6-speed w/multiplate slipper clutch, Fuel Injection with YCC-T and YCC-I, Direct-ignition coils, dual-electrode spark plugs and high-output magneto deliver extremely accurate, reliable firing.
The YZF-R6 was the first production motorcycle with YCC-T®, Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle system for flawless response under all conditions. YCC-T uses a powerful ECU and multiple sensors to provide perfect, smooth engine response and optimal power whenever the throttle is twisted under all conditions. Twin-injector fuel injection: shower-type injectors above each intake funnel help achieve optimum fuel atomization at high rpm. Besides that this bike is also equipped with a YCC-I®, Yamaha Chip Controlled Intake, is used on the R6 to vary intake tract length for excellent cylinder filling and a broader powerband.
For better handling the YZF-R6 used Deltabox® aluminum frame incorporates GP thinking in terms of engine positioning and rigidity for the ultimate in 600-class handling, Removable rear shock spacer and adjustable fork ride height allows the rider to tailor the ride position for the best fit and comfort. The lightweight swingarm pivots high in the frame, for increased anti-squat effect and mid-corner stability. To stopping the power this bike also equipped dual 310mm front disc brakes use forged one-piece radial-mount calipers and radial-pump front master cylinder with adjustable lever for astounding braking power and feel.
