The Yamaha YZF R6 took middleweight Supersport technology to a whole new level – a faster, sharper motorcycle created with a single-minded vision – to attack the racetrack with breathtaking performance and stunning precision. If you never let the Yamaha YZF R6's tachometer needle roam into the second half of its arc, you might never know what's lurking there waiting to be unleashed.
