Yamaha XJ6

The Yamaha XJ6 SP is one of the most wanted roaders from the streets. And there is no wonder why, as it features a highly attractive style, is easy to handle and delivers superior all-round performances.
Featuring a lightweight tubular frame, sporty suspensions, ergonomically designed handlebars and a low seat height, the Yamaha XJ6 SP has all it needs to reward its riders with a joyful riding experience.
Power comes from a 600 cc, 4 cylinder, liquid cooled, 4 stroke, DOHC, forward-inclined parallel 4-cylinder, 4-valves engine which cranks out a maximum power of 57.0 KW (77.5PS) at 10,000 Rpm and 59.7 Nm (6.1 Kg-M) at 8,000 pm. The engine sends its power to the ground by means of a constant mesh six speed transmission.

This is the bike that sets the standard in the middleweight class. With new bodywork and enhanced features for 2013, the XJ6 is one of our most popular bikes, because it combines outstanding all-round performance with easy handling and sharp looks.

Its compact chassis features a lightweight tubular frame with a low seat height, which makes for easy handling and enhanced agility. At the heart of this versatile motorcycle is a rapid and reliable 600cc inline 4-cylinder engine that delivers smooth power for strong acceleration.

And to complete this winning package, the XJ6 benefits from dual front discs and sleek new side panels, as well as a midship muffler and a new grab bar.

At the heart of the XJ6, there’s a powerful 600cc inline 4-cylinder engine that develops super-smooth performance. Whether you’re riding around town or enjoying a blast on the open road, this rapid and reliable engine delivers plenty of useable power. And with a lightweight 4-into-1 exhaust and midship muffler, it looks as good as it sounds.

Agile handling performance

One of the most significant features on the XJ6 is its compact tubular chassis, which helps to minimise the bike’s overall weight and dimensions for agile roadholding. And the low seat height of just 785 mm allows riders to get their feet on the ground with ease for improved low-speed manoeuvrability.
 

Special colour
The XJ6 is already one of the most stylish naked bikes in the popular 600 class – and with its cool new black/grey colour scheme this outstanding all-rounder looks so good from any angle. Running with special carbon-look frame guards and tank panels – as well as jet black wheels and a bold number 6 logo on the sidepanels – the SP model is the ultimate XJ6.
 

Durable and stylish storage
The XJ6 is a true middleweight all-rounder, which is designed to be used for a wide variety of roles. Yamaha offer an optional sturdy rear carrier and 39- or 50-litre top case suitable for anything from sports kit, an overnight bag or shopping. And for added security, there’s a U-lock storage space under the seat.

Racing-style instrumentation
The XJ6’s racing-style instrument console features an easy-to-read analogue tachometer on the right, and a multi-function digital display—which includes a speedometer—on the left. And for added visibility at night, the console benefits from white LED backlighting and a luminous white tachometer needle.
 

First-class comfort
This bike is designed to be ridden whenever the mood takes you, and to ensure you experience first class comfort every time, the XJ6 is equipped with adjustable handlebars. Combined with the low dual seat and the sculpted fuel tank, this allows you to create the most ergonomic riding position for greater riding pleasure.
