The smaller brother of the flagship R1, the 1999 Yamaha YZF-R6 is an equally enthralling bike. Packing a 599cc displacement for its 4 in-line engine, it is capable to produce a peak power of 120 hp and 92 Nm of torque. The power to weight ratio is lower than that of the R1, as the R6 tips the scales at 169 kg.

Nevertheless, the 1999 R6 is no to for inexperienced riders, as it has been loaded with state-of-the art technology, and is an adversary to be reckoned with both on the track or on the street.

==2003 Yamaha YZF-R6==

Great looks, even greater power and maneuverability to match them both, the 2002 Yamaha R6  has them. If superbikes are not your cup of tea and would rather go for the middleweight class, then this supersport machine is one of the top choices. The frame of the bike is manufactured using the Controlled Filling Die Cast technology, resulting in a structure which is stronger and stiffer, while being lighter.

==2004 Yamaha YZF-R6==

The 2003-made R6 gets a new injection mapping, now able to provide more power and torque in the low- and mid-range rpm areas, and this spells excellent streetability. The engine works smoother thanks to the revised exhaust canister, while riding in the high-rev range will provide an exhilarating experience, both on the track and through the twisties.

With a Deltabox III frame making the whole machine stiff and narrow, the 2003 YZF-R6 is more aerodynamic and even more eager to make credible claims to any supersport crown available on earth.

==2005 Yamaha YZF-R6==

The smaller brother of the R1 superbike, the supersport-class 2004 YZF-R6 brings just about the same level of performance and thrill, of course keeping the displacement difference in mind. The engine of the R6 received multiple revisions for this model year, and they include new camshafts, bigger throttle bodies (now 40mm), better injection and new intake funnels.

2005 also brings in a new fork and a new rear suspension linkage, which triggered a redesign of the Deltabox III frame. Add in bigger but lighter 310mm brake discs, dual radiator fans, a revised headlight lens and overall reduced frictional energy loss.

==2006 Yamaha YZF-R6S==

If the 600R was not sporty enough for you, both tech-wise and from a design point of view, Yamaha has prepared a Street version of the R6 for you, sporting almost identical bodywork and character, though with a more "civilian" engine and transmission behavior.

==2007 Yamaha YZF-R6S==

A more civilized, street-friendly version of the R6, the 2007 MY R6S brings a new definition to the term "do it all sport bike". Unlike its supersport-derived sibling, the R6S has traditional forks and the 4 in-line engine also got a special set of tweaks to make the bike feel more reassuring and performing better, even though you'll not be  revving it up just as high as the R6's.

R1's smaller sibling, the 2007 R6 was not forgotten when upgrades hit the production line. This exceptional, 16,000 rpm-redlined engine is capable to deliver breathtaking performance both on the track and the street, though the former is its true home. Multiple engine and suspension tweaks have added to the handling feel of the R6, and the current version offers more dependability.

One of the most popular supersport-class bikes in the world, the Yamaha YZF-R6 carries on the heritage of the family through the 2008 model year. One of the most exciting track bikes, the R6 is also a fun machine when ridden on the street. Agile and powerful, the 2008 MY R6 also packs a huge amount of high-tech parts, including ride-by-wire and an all-new MotoGP-inspired frame.

The untrained eye will easily mistake the R6S for its track-focused R6 sibling, but despite the similarities, these are two different beasts. The 2008 MY R6S is the "urban" version of the R6, with a revised riding position and a slightly more tamed engine, with the peak torque and power point set lower in the rev range.

The 2009 MY Yamaha YZF-R6 shares the updates with its liter-class sibling, and brings forth a new, more powerful engine, loaded into a new, optimized frame with a design oriented on higher sporty performance. The higher-revving power unit has a new mapping and is equipped with a high-performance slipper clutch to help riders when they brake hard or downshift.

The YZF-R6S is the more streetable version of the R6, packing better comfort for longer rides and increased all-day, all-round convenience. However, the 2008 MY YZF-R6S is not an easy-to-tame beast, as it still retains much of the nerve of its supersport, track-oriented sibling.
