Pros: Speed, Handling, Looks Cons: Gear box, Seats
This bike was made for one specific purpose--Go fast!
I do not recommend this bike to people who are afraid of speed. Off the start you'll notice a heavy torque to the rear. This is designed to get you moving as soon as possible. I...

Pros: Very Controllable and Exciting Cons: Not Much you can add to change
Yamaha R6 a great bike for the money. Yamaha's R6 is for the type of rider who is looking for a motorcycle that can keep up with all the big boy's out there. The R6 is very much compared to the R1,Except for the motors. The R6 is 599cc and comes in two...

Best all-around performer out there
by sr885bk ,Aug 10 '06
Pros: Looks, Speed, Handling, FUN FACTOR, Brakes, Fuel Injection Cons: Wimpy exhaust, No low-end power, uncomfortable for long rides, quickly obsolete, common bike
I bought my special edition silver w/black flames off the showroom floor in 2004 and a dream came true. I've owned about 7 (and ridden about 7 more) motorcycles in the 4 years I've been riding(Suzuki rf-900 and Katana 600, CBR1000, Honda VTR are some sportsbikes) and I've got to say the R6 is definately the best all around performer. I've ridden faster, bigger bikes but they have poor handling. I've ridden smaller bikes with similar handling (As the R6) but they severely lacked power and style. The high-revving engine, programmable shift light and the full race riding position constantly remind you that you are on the machine that dominates the road and track. The only downside is that every year, the R6 gets better (the '06 is completely new and simply ridiculous ;-D) so if you want to stay on top, you have to trade up constantly ($$$.) Sadly mine was stolen (no insurance) but I will buy another without a doubt. Make sure you keep up on maintenence

Clutch Slippage a common problem
by dfichtner ,Jul 08 '04
Pros: See above Cons: See above
Many riders of 1999-2003 R6s are experiencing clutch slippage problems at 10,000 and 12,000 RPMs. Please check this site for further review. Some are so angry about it, they are talking class-action lawsuit because Yamaha refuses to stand by their product and recall it.
