== Overview ==

Yamaha YZF-600 R6





















Starting out to give the 2005 R6 more horsepower
and a new fork, the R6 nearly became new motorcycle with new camshafts,
bigger throttle bodies, improved fuel injection, revised intake funnels and
more, resulting in a smoother, fatter powerband with three more horsepower
at 13,000 rpm.
To channel that power, a new, fully-adjustable inverted fork with 41mm tubes
was added for the most precise handling possible. It was too good a place to
resist mounting powerful new 310mm front disc brakes, radial calipers and a
radial master cylinder to even further exploit the R6's amazing front-end
feel. The added rigidity of the new fork led to a redesign of the main frame
to accommodate new rear suspension linkage.


New for 2005


- Engine upgrades in the form of 40mm throttle
bodies, revised fuel injection and ignition mapping, new camshafts and
intake funnels, etc., all result in a 3-horsepower increase at the same rpm
as before with more power across the board.
- New, fully adjustable inverted fork with 41mm tubes further reinforces
R6's main strength: precise handling. New, cast top triple clamp and forged
lower clamp also increase rigidity, and work with revised handlebar
positioning.

- To complement the new fork, the rear section of the Deltabox III main
frame was revised internally to work with revised swingarm linkage and
mounts for improved handling.
- Lighter, 310mm front brake discs replace 298mm units. New radial-mount
four-piston calipers and radial master cylinder provide greater braking
power and feel.
- 120/70-ZR17 front tire replaces previous 120/60-ZR17 for improved
handling.
- Twin, ring-type radiator fans are now used to ensure optimal engine
cooling.
- Revised headlight lens and revised under-cowl for even better style.










Engine:
- Ultra-compact, lightweight, 600cc DOHC 16-valve liquid-cooled inline
four-cylinder puts out 123 horsepower.
- Competition-bred suction-piston-type fuel injection features short intake
ports and a special vacuumcontrolled intake system to ensure instant throttle
response all the way up to the 15,500-rpm redline.
- Compact slant-block engine design uses stacked gearbox shafts to create a low
center of gravity and balanced weight distribution.
- Ram-Air Induction System delivers cool, high-pressure air for optimal
combustion and greater horsepower at high speed.
- Lightweight forged pistons on carburized connecting rods for superb strength
and reduced reciprocating mass.
- Linerless, ceramic-composite cylinder bores mean greater heat dissipation for
consistent power delivery and reduced friction.
- Close-ratio 6-speed transmission delivers seamless power and maximum
acceleration.
- Special three-axis gearbox design stacks input/output shafts to keep overall
engine size to super-compact dimensions.
- Curved radiator follows the contour of the frame and bodywork for an
ultra-sleek look and excellent cooling performance.
- Specially designed, one-piece cylinder and crankcase assembly provides
superior engine rigidity and light weight.
- Engine is a fully stressed chassis member to allow for a super-light frame
design.
- Compact, large-capacity clutch ensures consistent, fade-free performance.
- Rifle-bored camshafts with specially designed valve lifters and
computer-perfected timing for reduced spinning mass and quicker acceleration.
- Large-capacity internal water pump and separate liquid-cooled oil cooler
ensure optimal engine cooling efficiency.
- 4-into-2-into-1 aluminum exhaust optimizes engine performance, reduces overall
weight and is tucked in high for maximum lean angle.
- Direct ignition coils, dual-electrode spark plugs and high-output magneto
deliver extremely accurate, reliable firing.







Chassis/Suspension:
- Radical Deltabox IlI aluminum chassis is light, stiff, and extremely compact
for razor-sharp handling.
- Controlled Fill die casting produces an incredibly sleek swingarm that is
remarkably strong and light by pinpointing exactly where material needs to be.
Pivot position and swingarm length (576mm) are optimized for great traction
feel.
- Fully adjustable (preload, compression and rebound damping) 41mm inverted
telescopic front fork with 4.7" of travel offers race-bred suspension
performance with ultra-precise rider feedback.
- Fully adjustable (preload, compression and rebound damping) piggyback rear
shock with 4.7" of travel delivers exceptional rear wheel tracking and
stability.
- Removable CF die cast rear subframe is light and strong.
- Super-light five-spoke 17" wheels reduce unsprung weight; the casting
technique makes the rim section light, not to mention wickedly cool-looking.

Additional Features:
- Durable, lightweight, aluminum clip-on bars provide optimal vibration damping
- Narrow 4.5-gallon fuel tank provides excellent rider ergonomics and aggressive
seating position.
- Multi-function digital and analog instrumentation features: digital
speedometer, analog tachometer, dual tripmeters with odometer, upward-counting
fuel reserve meter, water temp gauge and lights for neutral, high beam, low fuel
and turn signals.
- Dual Gatling beam 60/55-watt multi-reflector headlight features a sleek
profile for superb aerodynamics and visibility.
- Dual LED taillight design reduces both weight and size while providing
excellent visibility and a sleek profile.
- Standard toolkit located in convenient storage compartment under passenger
seat.
