The R6 is an impressive looking package in its yellow and black race livery. With a compact, centralized mass structure and eye catching styling, you just know it is one performance orientated supersport motorcycle. Visually it screams race replica, and on initial inspection, it sure looks like one, following on from previous R6’s with their track focus. The engine is a gem, absolutely linear through the rev range, the power comes on strong and just keeps on coming and coming until up-shift time. Fueling is excellent other than mild openings off a closed throttle. The bike does not have a quick shifter and nor does it need one. Short, crisp changes are the go both up and down the gearbox, with just a snick on the gear lever required. The gearbox is super slick, offering solid gear changes with easy clutch-less upshifts, and the brakes, both front and rear offered great feel, bite and stopping power. The seat and riding position is surprisingly comfortable, with a reasonable reach to the bars allied with high foot pegs that provide an acceptable knee bend for an older rider, allowing body positioning and weight transfer to take place easily. Turning into corners and within them are where this bike shines. It's nimble handling makes it a joy in the twisties. The R6 was born on the racetrack. Its MotoGP-bred technology is tuned to give you the kind of outstanding engine and chassis performance usually reserved for professional racers. The R6 is full of innovations and technology, you just won’t find on the competitor’s machinery. This bike will be fully serviced, inspected and detailed at the time you take delivery.
