2000 Yamaha YZF-R6

Pros: power, handling, styling
Cons: slim availability

The yamaha R6 is absolutely the most badarse 600cc bike ever built. It has good torque all through the rev-range, but its top end horsepower is like no other 600 on the market. The handling is extremely precise and responsive, and its rigid chassis...

Pros: Fast, powerful, great deal for a sportbike.
Cons: Not the most comfortable.

The Yamaha R6 is the first motorcycle I have owned. I wanted a 600cc class sport bike and found that the R6 is one of the best. After choosing to get a R6, I was very pleased with the bike. I have been driving it for a year now and I feel I have ...

Pros: Fast, Lightweight, Manuverable
Cons: Not very many

The Yamaha R-6 is the baddest bike in production right now in the 600cc class. I currently own one and I love it more than any motorcycle I have ever ridden. I currently own the 1999 model and it was the best 600cc in 99'. Although, this year, Suzuki...

Cons: Uncomfortable after long periods of time in the saddle, pricey, uncomfortable riding with a passenger.

Pros: Awesome Handling and Powerband
Cons: The seats are in bad need of more padding

Most of my friends were shocked to see me get this bike. I grew up riding YZ/CR 80's and then bought a new Banshee last year. Every time I ride this thing I get off swearing I should mix gas and oil for it. It has one wild powerband. It rides much...

This is probably the absolute best bike you can buy for the money. I would say it is probably one the best bikes you can buy for any price. the handling is superb, this bike has some major balls for a 600, the breaking has a feel that makes you feel...

Pros: There is nothing better on the market for the money.
Cons: Jerky gear box feel. No real under-seat storage.

Pros: The 2001 R6 has great looks,very quick and light
Cons: a little to quick, quiet muffler

After reading and searching for my new bike, I became interested in the R6. I've look at the Ducati 750 Supersport, the CBR 600 and the regular YZF 600 and this bike is the best for the money. For 2001, this was the only bike updated this year....

Pros: Light Weight, Bright Colors, Easy handling, Perfect Control

I rode YZF-R6 for the first time on a saturday morning on the winding roads in Skyline Blvd, woodside CA. I was thrilled !!.

Pros: Razor like handling, nimble, quick, sexy.

Cons: -----------------------------------
