It's An R6 for the Rat Race
It didn't seem right to let our super-sporty YZF-R6 keep all that high-tech, high-revving 4-cylinder love to itself.
Enter FZ6 - light and flickable, roomy and relaxed, ready, willing and more than able to fly down your favorite back road whenever you are, even if it happens to be on the other side of the state.
A new and completely weld-free Controlled Fill die cast aluminum frame snugs the tuned-for-midrange R6 motor high and tight. Atop that firm foundation we built a do-everything motorcycle to deal with whatever pavement you can find, smooth or rippled, wherever you go.
Minimalist though it may look, the FZ6 gets the real-world goods you'll appreciate more as the miles pour on.
Thick, wide seat, Handlebar that reaches back to the rider, Big windshield atop a stylish half-fairing, Centerstand, Passenger grabrails, Luggage hooks, Big fuel tank, It also looks the part, thanks to the underseat exhaust and modern-spec fat radial tires on cool R6-style 5-spoke wheels.
Then there's the fact that this one's more affordable than it looks; if you like what you see, you better start planning a long ride now. "At the bargain price of only $8,999.00, the FZ6 is going to either make the other manufacturers drop their mid-range bike prices, or guarantee that every FZ6 is sold before it even gets on the showroom floor." -cmg
• Yamaha R1 (4th generation) - Remember to Breathe...

Yamaha Motor Canada Ltd. is proud to announce the exciting details of the fourth generation “R1” supersport machine.
You're looking at our manifesto in metal - everything we've learned in 50 years of competition.
It begins with a third-generation, 998cc, liquid-cooled, short-stroke, 20-valve, in-line four-cylinder engine designed to make 180 horsepower power at a stratospheric 12,500 rpm. The shorter cylinder head is re-angled farther forward to 40 degrees, far enough forward to allow the main frame spars to go over the engine instead of around it.
That straighter load path makes the Deltabox V frame massively strong, even as it makes the bike narrow to better fit the rider. Together with its light, strong and long Controlled Fill die cast truss swingarm, all that power is deployed to the pavement with the help of a fully adjustable piggyback shock absorber.
Titanium exhaust with Yamaha's lightweight Exhaust Ultimate Powervalve (EXUP) is routed under the seat for greater mass centralization. 56 degrees of cornering clearance is a good thing too.
New, five-spoke wheels at both ends are light to spool up fast. Radial-mount forged calipers and 320mm discs provide outstanding braking performance for bending controllably into tight chicanes at the end of long, sixth-gear straights.
These are just some of the features that enable the YZF-R1 to blow the dust out of your synapses every time you hop on and twist the throttle.
The YZF-R1 is our ultimate expression, a perfect example of the mechanical beauty that flows when form is set free to truly express function.
2004 Fazer 600s, July 2003.
(special thanks to MCN news)
These are the first pictures of Yamaha’s new Fazer 600s. The spy pictures
were taken close to Yamaha Europe’s Amsterdam base and show both faired
and unfaired versions.
Both bikes have new frames and are expected to be powered by a de-tuned version of the engine from the R6.
Sorry, that is all that is known right now about the new Yamaha Fazer 600s.
