Street-ready Sport BikeA rider in the market for a practical 600cc bike doesn't have to compromise performance or style to get value. The FZ6R is a great combination of performance, handling, and exciting sport bike style, but also with a low seat height that's both adjustable to fit a wider variety of riders and also narrower where it counts to make it even easier to put both feet on the ground.
Compact, Torque-Rich EngineThe FZ-07 features an all-new 689cc liquid-cooled, in-line twin cylinder, DOHC, 8-valve engine with fuel injection. This engine has a unique power character. It provides outstanding low- to mid-range torque with very linear throttle response, yet offers strong mid-high rpm pulling power as well. The engine develops up to 50 foot pounds of torque and is designed to maximize riding excitement in the real world.
847cc liquid-cooled, in-line 3-cylinder, DOHC, 12-valve engine with fuel injection. This FZ-09 engine combines advanced high tech components including YCC-T® and Yamaha D-Mode, with a crossplane concept crankshaft to deliver an exciting, torquey and quick-revving engine character."Crossplane Crankshaft Concept" provides linear torque development in response to the rider's throttle input. Among the advantages of the in-line 3-cylinder engine are: (1) linear torque development, (2) even firing intervals that provide smooth torque characteristics and a good feeling of power in the low to mid rpm range, (3) a light, slim and compact design, and (4) performance that combines the characteristics of both 2-cylinder and 4-cylinder engines.A 6-speed transmission has been adopted to match the engine. The transmission has optimized gear ratios that help to deliver engine torque efficiently. The result is a transmission that helps bring out more of the low- to mid-speed torque and excellent response characteristics.
Latest Generation Crossplane Crankshaft EngineThe potent 998cc inline 4-cylinder engine features the same Crossplane Crankshaft technology developed in Yamaha's renowned YZF-R1 superbike. Tuned specifically for the FZ-10, this engine develops awesome low- and mid-rpm torque with arm-stretching top-end power.Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle with D-MODE and Cruise ControlThe FZ-10 features YCC-T®—a ride-by-wire throttle system that provides exceptionally precise engine control—and D-MODE, which allows the rider to select a preferred engine response at the flick of a switch. The FZ-10 also includes cruise control for improved highway cruising comfort.Adjustable Traction Control SystemAn advanced Traction Control System (TCS) assists the rider in managing traction on various road conditions by quickly modulating throttle opening, ignition timing, fuel volume and other parameters.
