2010 Yamaha YZF-R6

Smoother mid-range torque

For 2010 the ECU mapping has been revised, which together with a new muffler design makes for a smoother performance curve, giving a feeling of strong and effective acceleration throughout the engine speed range.

On the road and the race track this better drivability can be appreciated by the rider, and the feeling of smoother mid-range torque enhances the overall riding experience, making the YZF-R6 an even more desirable middleweight supersport.

YZF-R6 - Catch the extreme

One ride on the R6 lets you know that this bike was born on the racetrack. Its technology is tuned to give you the kind of outstanding engine and chassis performance usually reserved for professional riders.

Its ultra-high-revving short-stroke engine unleashes dazzling power, made even more responsive by the state-of-the-art YCC-I (Yamaha Chip Controlled-Intake) and YCC-T (Yamaha Chip Controlled-Throttle).

Everything about the R6 is geared towards ultimate cornering, and getting rider and machine working as one. The chassis gives you handling developed through World Championship racing programmes, and the front forks are adjustable for all conditions.
