2009 Yamaha FZ6R, 2009 Yamaha FZ6R A rider in the market for an entry level or commuter 600cc bike doesn t have to compromise performance or style to get value: introducing the new 2009 FZ6R! It s a great combination of performance, handling, and exciting sport bike style, but also with a low seat height that s both adjustable to fit a wider variety of riders and also narrower where it counts to make it even easier to put both feet on the ground The newly designed engine delivers smooth power just the way today s rider needs it, brisk acceleration with plenty of torque that makes it a pleasure to get around town, with lots in reserve for when you want more. This is certainly not a no frills motor.

2009 Yamaha FZ6RY R Sportbike (2009)
2009 YAMAHA FZ6RY R, The 2009 Yamaha FZ6 stands out thanks to a winning recipe: a light, comfortable and versatile overall package powered by a more than decent number of horses that satisfies all rider s needs as long as they plan to stay on road. Furthermore, the Comfort seat , previously found only in the accessory list, is now standard. The YAMANA YZF-R6 is a bike that takes a more docile approach , however its 600cc liquid-cooled inline four-cylinder DOHC, 16 valves has proven a top performer on all models that it powered, the last being the FZ6R.

2007 Yamaha FZS6WR (2007)
2007 YAMAHA FZS6WR, An excellent example of Yamaha's foray into Naked Sport Touring, this FZ6 was built prior to the engine redesign that rendered them less tourqey and more meager at top speeds. This bike revs higher, has more low end torque, and gets to greater top speeds than it's descendants. The motor is more akin to the R6 than they are nowadays.
