A different breed of supersport machine, but a bike for the thrill-seekers nevertheless, the 1999 YZF-600R is a more street-oriented version of the acclaimed R6. Almost identical to the R6, it is easily recognizable by the different livery and the one-piece, two-up seat. | A different breed of supersport machine, but a bike for the thrill-seekers nevertheless, the 1999 YZF-600R is a more street-oriented version of the acclaimed R6.

The YZF-600R provides better rider ergonomics which make it a better choice for guys looking for a sport-natured commuter or who are even considering longer hauls. Add in a luggage system, and the YZF-600R can become a sport-touring bike, as well. | The YZF-600R provides better rider ergonomics which make it a better choice for guys looking for a sport-natured commuter or who are even considering longer hauls.

The YZF-600R is a great choice for those who like the zero-compromise performance of the R6, but would rather they had some extra comfort on two wheels. This bike is a derivative of the supersport machine, but tailored for a more linear response and offering a revised riding position for improved in-saddle all-day comfort. | The YZF-600R is a great choice for those who like the zero-compromise performance of the R6, but would rather they had some extra comfort on two wheels.

A | A nifty sporty all-rounder, the 2005 YZF-600R is also tailored to a lower rpm point for the peak torque and power, given the more urban usage and everyday riding in slower traffic. Equipped with a much more comfortable two-up seat, the 2005 YZF-600R can also become your fav machine for overnight trips, with some accessory luggage system. | ||

Powerful enough to be listed as a bike "not intended for novice or inexperienced riders", the YZF-600R is still more than capable to put a big smile on anyone's face, as it will keep up with the more powerful similar machines around the bend. | Powerful enough to be listed as a bike "not intended for novice or inexperienced riders", the YZF-600R is still more than capable to put a big smile on anyone's face, as it will keep up with the more powerful similar machines around the bend. | ||
