Yamaha YZF description

7090 Southwest Freeway 2011 Yamaha YZF R6 Condition: ExcellentColor: MaroonCall sales today at or shop with us on-line 24/7 at houstonsuperbikes.comDont let this beautiful bike pass you by. This #1 light weight contender wont last long the way our dedicated Houston riders are here. Yamaha's Chip Controlled (YCC-T) ride-by-wire throttle system with electronically controlled variable-length intake tracts (for a broader powerband) works to smooth out most of the dips and valleys from the high strung 599cc inline-Four, as well as reduce engine braking at high revs--another good idea that's mechanically aided by a back-torque-limiting slipper clutch.Lean forward into the racy riding position and you'll see a programmable shift light and big analog tachometer right where they belong: front and center. At 6 grand, a cleverly placed R6 logo serves as a good reference for where the engine needs to be spinning to get away from a standstill with a bogless launch. The rev limiter doesn't begin to cut in 'til 10,000 rpm later.Fully adjustable suspension can be tailored to soak up imperfect streets or firmed up for track days. The 41mm fork provides great feel from the Dunlop Qualifier's contact patch--and helped me avoid an incident brought on by a truck spilling transmission fluid right in front of me. That steep swingarm angle doesn't hurt when it comes to sudden midcorner corrections, either. Little pressure is required on the scalpel-thin front brake lever to stop the 394-pound-dry R6 in its tracks.

Max Biaggi loses the plot . . and very nearly his teeth !

Tue, 29 Mar 2011

I’ve just got back from Donington Park and the second round of the World Superbike championship. The racing was exciting, going off without a hitch, and the weather was unseasonably kind, but the meeting will be remembered by those in the fairly close knit WSB paddock for reasons other than the temperature or the race results. It’ll be remembered by most, especially those who witnessed it, as the meeting where Max Biaggi finally lost his already feeble grip on reality.
