2007 Yamaha YZF-R6 for Sale

Additional Features:

• Quick-detach license plate holder and rear turn signal mount makes prepping for track days or racing a snap.
• Built-in lap timer is controlled by a right-handlebar switch.
• Multifunction digital and analog instrumentation features: programmable shift light, digital speedometer, analog tachometer, dual tripmeters with miles-on-reserve function, odometer, water temp gauge and lights for neutral, high beam, low fuel and turn signals.
• Standard toolkit located in convenient storage compartment under passenger seat.

Chassis/Suspension:

• Deltabox aluminum frame incorporates GP thinking in terms of engine positioning and rigidity for the ultimate in 600 class handling.
• MotoGP-style 52.5-percent front-wheel weight bias helps produce razor-sharp handling.
• Light, Controlled Fill swingarm pivots high in the frame, for increased anti-squat effect and mid-corner stability. TZ-type chain adjusters ease rear tire changes.
• Four-way adjustable (preload, high-speed compression, low-speed compression and rebound damping) inverted fork with 41 mm tubes increases freedom in setting up for street or track use; soak up the bumps and resist bottoming when braking.
• Four-way adjustable (preload, high-speed compression, low-speed compression and rebound damping) piggyback rear shock delivers exceptional rear wheel tracking and stability.
• Dual 310 mm 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.
• Removable CF die cast rear sub-frame is light and strong.
• Super-light five-spoke 17-inch wheels are light and strong; the casting technique makes the rim section light, not to mention wickedly cool-looking.

Engine:

• Compact, lightweight 67 x 42.5 mm 599 cc DOHC 16-valve liquid-cooled inline four-cylinder features titanium valves, 12.8:1 compression and compact combustion chambers for awesome, lightning-quick response.
• YCC-T (Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle) 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.
• Back torque-limiting slipper clutch greatly facilitates braking and downshifting from high speed. Close-ratio six-speed transmission delivers seamless power and maximum acceleration.
• Despite the increased bore, piston and pin weight has been reduced for more power and smoothness; 1 mm smaller main journals reduce friction while 1 mm larger connecting rod journals increase performance.
• Compact slant-block engine design uses widely triangulated gearbox shafts to make the GP-derived, straight frame concept work; optimum weight distribution and excellent handling are the result.
• GP-style titanium muffler contributes to mass centralization, and contains EXUP, an O2 sensor and catalyzers for a broad powerband, spot-on injection and EU-3 emissions compliance.
• Linerless, direct-plated ceramic-composite cylinder bores mean greater heat dissipation for consistent power delivery and reduced friction—also a narrow engine.
• Cool magnesium valve and engine covers are light and stylish. Curved radiator with twin-ring cooling fans keeps everything cool.
• Direct ignition coils, dual-electrode spark plugs and high-output magneto deliver extremely accurate, reliable firing.

Key Features:

• Light, powerful and bristling with knowledge gained from years of racing, the YZF-R6 is the most advanced production middleweight motorcycle Yamaha - or anybody else - has ever built.
• The YZF-R6 was the first production motorcycle with a fly-by-wire throttle system—for flawless response under all conditions.
• Straight frame concept: developed from the Yamaha M1 GP machine, the YZF-R6’s steering head, swingarm pivot and rear axle all lie in a straight line—for unsurpassed handling—with an inline four-cylinder engine designed for optimal layout and mass centralization.
• Slipper-type back torque-limiting clutch greatly facilitates braking/down shifting from high speed.
• Formula 1-style air management presents very small frontal area for excellent aerodynamics; ram-air induction ducts cool, high-pressure air through the steering head for optimal combustion, more horsepower and enhanced engine cooling.
• The YZF-R6 is the AMA Supersport Champion in its rookie season.
