Click here for an CycleVIN Motorcycle History Report on this 2019 Yamaha R6. Additional photos are available here for your perusal.
The Yamaha R6 has long been the forerunner of riding innovation and cutting-edge technology in the 600cc supersport market. The 8th generation R6 was no different, introducing new features that helped the brand in blue retain their class-leading status in the 600 class, all the while navigating around increasing EPA regulations and restrictions. The newest generation R6 introduced features such as the YCC-T, a Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle System which helped to maintain consistency in throttle response in all conditions, as well as the YCC-I, a Yamaha Chip Controlled Intake that varied the intake tract length for better cylinder filling and a broader powerband.
The YZF-R6 also now came standard with a slipper-type clutch, which was essential for those looking to take their motorcycles and push them to their absolute limits. The engine saw updates to the ECU and fueling, as well as even higher compression, which increased the R6’s midrange power. As Motorcycle News phrased it: A designer’s touch here and the same effort there, has led to the Yamaha R6 being the definitive supersport package…”
