<p><a href="http://bmxforkid.com/2009/09/04/yamaha-2009-fz6r/">Yamaha FZ6R</a> is a cheaper version of <a href="http://bmxforkid.com/2009/09/04/yamaha-2009-fz6/">Yamaha FZ6</a>.  FZ6R offers features that make it easy for beginning riders to get started. This bike fits neatly into the  entry-level sport bike category.</p>
<p><strong>Price:</strong> $6,990 &#8211; $7,090</p>
<p><strong>Key Features:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>A rider in the market for an entry level or commuter 600cc bike doesn’t have to compromise performance or style to get value: introducing the new 2009 FZ6R! It’s 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.</li>
<li>The newly designed engine delivers smooth power just the way today’s rider needs it, brisk acceleration with plenty of torque that makes it a pleasure to get around town, with lots in reserve for when you want more. This is certainly not a “no frills” motor. It’s based on the awesome, previous-generation R6 motor, fuel injected and tuned for real world street riding with no-hassle reliability and all-day comfort.</li>
<li>Even if your primary goal is commuting to school or work, you want to be able to get out and have fun riding some twisty back roads. The FZ6R is ready to put a grin on your face! The newly designed diamond-shaped frame made of high-tensile steel pipes, using the engine as a structural member of the chassis, becomes the foundation for handling performance. It’s designed to provide the right rigidity balance to contribute to smooth cornering performance.</li>
<li>When it comes to putting power to the pavement, the new FZ6R uses nothing less than quality radial tires, 120/70R 17-inch front and 160/16R 17-inch rear. And this bike’s excellent stopping performance is due to dual 298mm front discs and a 245mm rear disc, both with comfortable to use controls.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Engine:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>With its heritage firmly rooted in the power plant from an earlier generation R6, the engine in the FZ6R has been carefully updated to meet the demands of today’s motorcyclist. This new engine optimizes the entire flow from the intake of the fuel-air mixture to combustion and exhaust. The cylinder head, crankcase, intake and exhaust system, and clutch and shifter have been completely redesigned, creating a power unit with an entirely new character, even though it shares bore and stroke dimensions and compression ratio with the previous FZ6.</li>
<li>The 600cc liquid-cooled 4-stroke in-line 4-cylinder engine is ready to respond with smooth, linear performance when the rider twists the throttle. Maximum output is achieved at a spirited 10,000 rpm and maximum torque is obtained at 9000 rpm. Bottom line: Its outstanding “torquey” low to mid rpm engine performance is just right for someone who enjoys commuting to work or school or riding the canyons on the weekends.</li>
<li>Lightweight forged aluminum pistons are used. Because the aluminum alloy is heated and formed under pressure without having to melt it completely as in conventional casting techniques, the strength of the original metallurgic matrix of the aluminum is maintained. As a result, a forged piston is stronger than a cast one and can thus be designed for lighter weight, which contributes to a reduction in vibration. In fact, many riders will be surprised at how smooth this motor is.</li>
<li>The 32-bit ECU controls the four-hole, two-direction, high-dynamic-range type fuel injectors for superior injection control. By delivering the precise fuel-air mixture needed for conditions, the engine can deliver better power and better fuel economy.</li>
<li>Much like many of today’s high end sport bikes, the FZ6R has a 4-into-2-into-1 midship exhaust. Not only does it provide a throaty, yet comfortably quiet exhaust note, the system also includes 3-way catalytic converter technology to reduce exhaust emissions.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Chassis/Suspension:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>With its exciting sport bike looks, onlookers will know this isn’t just another middleweight bike. There’s no mistaking Yamaha’s high-performance heritage in this new FZ6R.</li>
<li>The seat has separate front and rear sections, and the rider’s seat features an innovative height adjustment mechanism. The seat can be set 20mm – just over 3/4 of an inch – higher for taller riders, a change that can make a big difference on an all-day ride</li>
<li>The overall chassis rigidity has been designed to provide both excellent handling and all-day comfort. In order to further enhance the smoothness and comfort of the ride, the front-end dimensions a have been optimized, including a caster angle of 26° and trail of 103.5mm, contributing a bike that has great steering feeling, making the bike even more of a pleasure to ride.</li>
<li>The front suspension has sturdy 41mm inner tubes, matched to a die-cast aluminum upper triple clamp and forged-steel under bracket, providing superior cushioning performance and good front-end feel. Wheel travel is a generous 5.1 inches to help soak up those bumps in the road.</li>
<li>The rear suspension is lightweight and contributes to the centralization of mass, and the mono-cross suspension provides excellent wheel travel, a full 5.1 inches. Superior road hugging performance has been achieved with optimally designed damping-force valves and oil channels.</li>
<li>This bike boasts hydraulic discs front and rear. The 298mm diameter front discs are lightweight for reduced unsprung weight, while the single rear disc is 245mm, and the brakes feature semi-metallic pads. The brakes have been designed to offer great feel and superb braking ability.</li>
<li>FZ6R mounts tubeless radial tires on cast aluminum wheels. While their lightweight construction helps centralize mass, they also help contribute to agile handling.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Additional Features:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>The new meter panel gives the rider plenty of feedback, including a digital display speedometer, analog tachometer, odometer/tripmeter, fuel gauge, and water coolant gauge.</li>
<li>Body work has an exterior coating for superior shine.</li>
</ul>

<p>Yamaha&#8217;s YZF-R6 is a 600 cc (36.6 cu in) sport bike, first introduced in 1999, updated in 2001, 2003, 2006, 2008 and revised in the years in between.</p>
<p>Yamaha also created a cheaper street version <a href="http://bmxforkid.com/2009/09/04/yamaha-2009-yzf-r6s/">Yamaha YZF-R6</a> .</p>
<p><strong>Price:</strong> $9,990 &#8211; $10,190</p>
<p><strong>Key Features:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Light, powerful and bristling with knowledge gained from years of racing, the YZF-R6 is the most advanced production 600cc motorcycle Yamaha &#8211; or anybody else &#8211; has ever built.</li>
<li>The YZF-R6 was the ﬁrst production motorcycle with a ﬂy-by-wire throttle system for ﬂawless response under all conditions.</li>
<li>YCC-I, Yamaha Chip Controlled Intake, is used on the R6 to vary intake tract length for excellent cylinder filling and a broader powerband. On the higher revving R6, its benefits are even more pronounced.</li>
<li>Slipper-type back torque-limiting clutch greatly facilitates braking/downshifting from high speed.</li>
<li>The YZF-R6 achieves fuel economy up to an estimated 40 mpg** with a fuel tank that holds 4.6 gallons of gas.</li>
<li>The Engine Control Unit (ECU) has remapped YCC-T settings to optimize power output in each gear, to achieve smooth, linear power delivery out of the turn, with excellent overall drivability.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Engine:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Compact, lightweight 67 x 42.5mm 599cc DOHC 16-valve liquid-cooled titanium-valved four-cylinder has a compression ratio of 13.1:1, for great response. Domed pistons with valve cutouts produce a compact combustion chamber.</li>
<li>Fuel injection mapping for the YCC-T—Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle dual-injector system complements the high compression ratio for great throttle response and reduced engine braking.</li>
<li>YCC-I—Yamaha Chip Controlled Intake electronically varies intake funnel length for an amazinglyf broad, smooth powerband.</li>
<li>A magnesium subframe removes weight from the rear of the motorcycle for increased mass centralization.</li>
<li>Fork height adjustability and rear ride-height adjustment accommodates a great range of riders and tires.</li>
<li>YCC-T uses a powerful ECU and multiple sensors to provide perfect, smooth engine response and optimal power whenever the throttle is twisted under all conditions.</li>
<li>Twin-injector fuel injection: shower-type injectors above each intake funnel help achieve optimum fuel atomization at high rpm.</li>
<li>Slipper-type back torque-limiting clutch greatly facilitates braking and downshifting from high speed. Close-ratio six-speed transmission delivers seamless power and maximum acceleration.</li>
<li>GP-style titanium muffler contributes to mass centralization and contains EXUP® for a broad powerband, spot-on injection and emissions compliance.</li>
<li>Linerless, direct-plated ceramic-composite cylinder bores mean greater heat dissipation for consistent power delivery and reduced friction.</li>
<li>Cool magnesium valve and engine covers are light and stylish.</li>
<li>Direct-ignition coils, dual-electrode spark plugs and high-output magneto deliver extremely accurate, reliable firing.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Chasis/Suspension:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Deltabox aluminum frame incorporates GP thinking in terms of engine positioning and rigidity for the ultimate in 600-class handling.</li>
<li>A die-cast swingarm pivots high in the frame, for increased antisquat effect and mid-corner stability. TZ-type chain adjusters ease rear tire changes.</li>
<li>Four-way adjustable (preload, high-speed compression, low-speed compression and rebound damping) inverted fork with 41mm tubes increases freedom in setting up for street or track use; soak up the bumps and resist bottoming when braking.</li>
<li>Four-way adjustable (preload, high-speed compression, low-speed compression and rebound damping) piggyback rear shock delivers exceptional rear wheel tracking and stability.</li>
<li>Dual 310mm front disc brakes use forged one-piece radial-mount calipers and radial-pump front master cylinder with adjustable lever for astounding braking power and feel.</li>
<li>The casting technique for the five-spoke 17-inch wheels makes the rims light and strong, not to mention wickedly cool-looking.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Additional Features:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Built-in lap timer is controlled by a right handlebar switch.</li>
<li>Multifunction digital and analog instrumentation features: programmable shift light, digital speedometer, analog tachometer, dual tripmeters with miles-on-reserve function, odometer, water temp gauge and lights for neutral, high beam, low fuel and turn signals.</li>

<p>Yamaha launched the YZF-R1 after redesigning the Genesis engine to offset the crankshaft, gearbox input and output shafts and this &#8220;compacting&#8221; of the engine yielded a huge dividend in that the total engine length was now very short. This allowed the wheelbase to be shortened significantly which resulted in much quicker handling and an optimized center of gravity.</p>
<p>In late 2008 Yamaha announced they would release an all new R1 for 2009. The new R1 takes engine technology from the M1 Moto GP bike with its crossplane crankshaft, the first ever production motorcycle to do so. Crossplane technology, puts each connecting rod 90° from the next, with an uneven firing interval of 270°- 180°- 90°- 180°.</p>
<p><strong>Price:</strong> $12,390 &#8211; $12,490</p>
<p><strong>Key Features:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>In the supersport liter class, there’s always lots of talk about power. You expect that. What you wouldn’t have expected – until now – is a radically superior way to deliver that power. Introducing the 2009 YZF-R1, the first ever production motorcycle with a crossplane crankshaft. Crossplane technology, first pioneered in MotoGP racing with the M1, puts each connecting rod 90° from the next, with an uneven firing interval of 270°- 180°- 90°- 180°. This all but eliminates undesirable inertial crankshaft torque, which allows the engine’s compression torque to build smoothly and provide a very linear power delivery out of the corners. It’s a feeling that’s simply unmatched, like having two engines in one: the low-rpm torquey feel of a twin with the raw, high-rpm power of an inline 4. In fact, the new YZF-R1 is not a continuation of existing supersport development; it is breakthrough technology that represents a paradigm shift in both technology and performance.</li>
<li>This next-generation R1 keeps all the technological superiorities developed for its predecessor: YCC-T (Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle) is MotoGP inspired fly-by-wire technology used to deliver instant throttle response. YCC-I is Yamaha Chip Controlled Intake which is a variable intake system that broadens the spread of power. The fuel injection system provides optimum air/fuel mixtures for maximum power and smooth throttle response.</li>
<li>The R1 features Yamaha D-MODE (or drive mode) with rider-selectable throttle control maps to program YCC-T performance characteristics for riding conditions. The standard map is designed for optimum overall performance. The “A” mode lets the rider enjoy sportier engine response in the low- to mid-speed range, and the “B” mode offers response that is somewhat less sharp response for riding situations that require especially sensitive throttle operation. Switching maps is as easy as pushing a button on the handlebar switch.</li>
<li>In keeping with this machine’s exceptional cornering ability and crisp handling, the all new aluminum frame has been designed to offer exceptional rigidity balance. The rear frame is now lightweight CF die-cast magnesium, contributing the optimum mass centralization. Suspension includes new SOQI front forks which use one of the tricks developed for our winning MotoGP bikes: independent damping. The left fork handles compression damping and the right side handles the rebound damping. And the rear shock adopts new bottom linkage for optimum suspension characteristics.</li>
<li>All new bodywork does more than add break-away-from-the- crowd styling. Completely new, the new model has a more serious, less busy look. The side fairing is smoother for a sleeker appearance. And, instead of the usual four bulb headlight design, the ’09 model now has only two projector-type bulbs mounted closer to the nose of the bike. This positions ram air ducts closer in for a more compact, smooth look. In addition, the rounded lenses are new and unique to the supersport industry.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Engine:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Crossplane crankshaft technology proven in victory after victory on MotoGP machines provides a high-tech uneven firing interval. Unlike typical in-line-four engine design, where the two outer and two inner pistons move together in pairs with 180°intervals, the crossplane crankshaft has each connecting rod 90° from the next with a unique firing order of 270° –180° – 90° – 180°. This overcomes the inherent fluctuations in inertial torque during each engine revolution, and the accompanying peaky torque characteristics. Instead, compression torque continues to build, giving the rider more linear throttle response with awesome power and traction out of the corners.</li>
<li>To maximize rider comfort as well as power output, this newly designed engine adopts a coupling-type balancer that rotates in the opposite direction as the crankshaft.</li>
<li>This engine features new forged aluminum pistons to take maximum advantage of the power characteristics. As proven on previous models, titanium intake valves are lightweight titanium.</li>
<li>A forced-air intake system is adopted to increase intake efficiency by using the natural airflow during riding to pressurize the air in the air cleaner box. This contributes to outstanding power delivery characteristics in the high-speed range, while the design also helps to minimize intake noise.</li>
<li>Slipper-type back torque-limiting clutch greatly facilitates braking/downshifting from high speed.</li>
<li>The exhaust system is completely new. It’s meticulously designed to enhance engine output while, thanks to its threeway catalyst technology, also reducing exhaust emissions. The silencer is a single expansion type, and, the sound coming through from the unique crossplane-crankshaft-equipped engine is unlike any other in-line four cylinder production supersport.</li>
<li>This fuel-injected engine takes full advantage of YCC-T (Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle), the MotoGP-inspired fly-by-wire technology used to deliver instant throttle response. There’s also YCC-I, Yamaha Chip Controlled Intake, the variable intake system that broadens the spread of power. Fuel injectors have 12 holes for precise fuel delivery that translates to the most power from every fuel charge.</li>
<li>Have it your way, thanks to Yamaha D-MODE variable throttle control. There are three modes that control how YCC-T responds to throttle input from the rider. The selectable “A” mode puts more emphasis on acceleration in low to midrange rpm. “B” mode, on the other hand, provides less sharp response to input for riding situations that require especially sensitive throttle operation. Selecting the map you want is as easy as pressing button on the handlebars.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Chassis/Suspension:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>The frame is completely revamped, with a combination of uncompromising rigidity where needed along with carefully achieved flex for the precise rigidity balance this bike needs to give the rider the full benefit of its handling and engine characteristics. No one-technique-fits-all-needs design, it is a sophisticated combination of CF die-cast, stamping, and gravity casting… the exact technology needed for each portion of this advanced frame.</li>
<li>New SOQI front forks take a page from the championship-winning design of our MotoGP weapon, the M1. Since both forks always move together, compression damping duties can be confined to the left fork, while rebound damping is precisely handled by the right fork.</li>
<li>The new SOQI rear shock both high and low speed compression damping plus an easy-to-use screw adjustment for preload. This unit also adopts a pillow-ball-type joint for exceptional shock absorption, road hold feeling, and damper response. To achieve maximum performance, a new bottom linkage is used to work with the rest of the chassis refinements for brilliant, crisp handling characteristics.</li>
<li>Factory racers get machines tailored to their preferences. Welcome to the club. R1 has adjustable footrests, with a 15mm height and 3mm front-to-rear adjustment.</li>
<li>The press-formed fuel tank has a shape developed using 3-D simulation analysis technology. The elongated shape of the tank allows it to fit neatly within the frame in a way that promotes concentration of mass.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Additional Features:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>The newly designed instrumentation includes everything a rider wants to know, including gear position.</li>

<p>The Yamaha FZ1 is a street motorcycle manufactured by the <a href="http://bmxforkid.com/category/yamaha/">Yamaha</a> Motor Company Ltd. of Japan. Yamaha also produce a 600 cc version called <a href="http://bmxforkid.com/2009/09/04/yamaha-2009-2009-fz6/">Yamaha FZ6</a>.</p>
<p>The 2009 model (introduced on September 08, 2008) is technically unchanged from 2007 and 2008. Yamaha reverted back to black rims and replaced the gold anodized USD forks with black anodized ones. Yamaha also reintroduced the Raven colour scheme but with slight changes and called it Granite Gray.</p>
<p><strong>Price:</strong> $9,790</p>
<p><strong>Key Features</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Street brawler brings 998cc of fuel-injected previous generation R1 power to the fray, in a light-and-strong aluminum frame.</li>
<li>Sculpted fuel tank and one-piece handlebar move the rider forward for aggressive naked-bike excitement.</li>
<li>Adjustable suspension lets the FZ1 be dialed in for a wide range of uses, everything from urban assault to sport touring.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Engine</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>998cc DOHC 20-valve previous generation R1 engine is tuned for tremendous mid-range punch and massive top-end power.</li>
<li>R1-style fuel injection with computer-controlled sub-throttle valves provides precise fuel/air mixture for superb power delivery across the entire rev range.</li>
<li>Closed-deck cylinder block provides great strength while allowing a narrow engine in spite of big, 77mm bores.</li>
<li>Narrow-angle five-valve combustion chambers produce a highly efficient 11.5:1 compression ratio.</li>
<li>Carburized connecting rods with fractured big ends produce a quick-revving engine with excellent high-rpm durability.</li>
<li>High silicon-content ceramic-composite cylinder sleeves ensure great heat dissipation for consistent power delivery and reduced friction.</li>
<li>Four-into-one chamberless short-style exhaust contains stainless steel EXUP and three-way catalyst with Oxygen sensor for outstanding power delivery throughout the rev range and low emissions.</li>
<li>Curved high-capacity radiator with twin ring-style fans keeps everything cool under all conditions.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Chassis/Suspension:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Aggressive chassis geometry for quick handling; the engine is shoved forward for excellent handling.</li>
<li>Aggressive ergos: 4.75-gallon tank moves the rider forward into a position of total control—supersport-like 51 percent front-wheel weight bias means confident, quick handling.</li>
<li>Light-and-rigid aluminum frame uses a special mold casting technique that allowed engineers to minutely vary metal thicknesses for optimal rigidity throughout.</li>
<li>Stressed-engine design holds the engine in place with six mounts, for excellent vertical stiffness and handling.</li>
<li>Rigid Controlled-Fill aluminum swingarm reduces drive chain–induced suspension movement for excellent handling, tire grip and looks.</li>
<li>43mm fully adjustable inverted fork contains compression damping circuitry in the left leg and rebound in the right—proven effective on the YZR-M1 MotoGP bike—as well as stiff springs for excellent handling.</li>
<li>Two 320mm front discs squeezed by monoblock four-piston calipers and a single 245mm rear disc serve up strong stopping power.</li>
<li>Removable subframe for easy maintenance and detachable passenger footpeg mounts for even more stripped-down style.</li>
<li>Light, R1-spec five-spoke wheels and fat radial tires, including a 190/50-ZR17 rear, complete the look and serve up the traction.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Fairing features a half-cowl design with R1-style headlight layout that creates a super-aggressive naked bike profile.</li>
<li>High-tech instrument display features analog tachometer, digital speedometer, dual trip meter with miles on reserve function, odometer, water temperature and lights for neutral, high beam, low fuel and turn signals—also a fade-in lighting feature with adjustable brightness.</li>
<li>Two-piece seat serves up great comfort along with total control.</li>
<li>Passenger grabrails for riding comfort.</li>
<li>Durable O-ring-sealed drive chain provides longer chain life.</li>
<li>Dual 12V 60/55-watt multi-reflector headlight features a sleek, R1-type profile for superb aerodynamics and visibility.</li>
<li>Standard toolkit located in convenient storage compartment under passenger seat.</li>
