==Overview==
The '''[[Yamaha]] FZ6''' is a budget middleweight crossover bike built around the 2003 YZF R6 engine. The engine is retuned for more midrange power where it is more useable. It comes with a somewhat soft suspension that makes it easy on beginners and very well suited for sport-touring, commuting, or just having fun on curvy mountain roads.

A significant factor making this bike a popular choice is its underseat exhaust. Another attractive feature is its half-fairing, positioning it somewhere between a full supersport and a naked streetfighter (although in Europe and Australia the fully naked look is available as the FZ-6N option).

The 2003 Yamaha FZ6 is the naked, more streetable version of the supersport R6  beast. Sharing much of the technology and engineering with the latter, the FZ6 is  the perfect sporty commuter. Its narrow profile and sharp handling make navigating the busy city traffic a breeze, while the responsive throttle and confidence-inspiring ergonomics are perfect for canyon carving.

The all-new weld-free Controlled Fill die cast aluminum frame accommodates the R6 engine perfectly, while the bars which now reach back towards the rides and the wide plush seat and less sporty foot peg position provide excellent long-range worthiness.

Just like the FZ1 was derived from an R1 which lost its fairings and became a naked beast, the R6 gave birth to the FZ6, a truly popular stripped-down machine with exceptional daily rideability and tons of fun about it. Light, stiff and extremely nimble, this middleweight naked machine is all about freedom and practicality.

The 2005 FZ6 is not unlike an R6 with better all-day ergonomics, noticeably less plastic surrounding the engine and a much more suitable city slicer for the active rider. With almost the whole EFI power pf the R6, this bike is light and compact, but offers a comfy ride for hours in a row. The styling is top-notch, with an underseat exhaust and smooth-flowing shapes for the two-up one-piece seat.

A bike derived from R6S, the street version of the R6, the 2006 FZ6 is a naked machine which can do almost anything road-related. From commuting to canyon carving, sporty touring (with optional luggage systems) and overnight weekend outings, the bike can do it all. With plenty of power on tap from the 599cc engine and a lowered rev mark for the peak torque, the 2006 FZ6 also comes with a 6-speed gearbox and progressive, predictable throttling.
