Yamaha YZF-R6 2017

The Yamaha R6 2017 is still a visually and dynamically radical supersport motorbike that is one of the best and probably the last of its kind. The EURO4 standard costs the 599 cubic in-line four-cylinder with titanium valves a whole 11 hp compared to the 2007/2008 model. Yamaha is clearly targeting hobby, amateur and professional racers who don't care about standard performance anyway. With more than 50 accessories, the R6 can be upgraded according to need and budget. However, everyone should be aware that this can cost a lot of money.

Strong, direct brakes

sharp looks

automatic gearshift

good wind protection

precise handling

high transparency

radical seating position unsuitable for touring
