The Yamaha YZF-R6 was introduced in 1999 as the super sport version of Yamaha's
Yamaha YZF-R1 super bike, and as a companion to the more street-oriented
Yamaha YZF600R
sport bike which continued to be sold alongside the R6. The motorcycle
featured Yamaha's completely new engine design capable of producing over
108 hp (81 kW) while stationary. The R6 was the world's first 600cc
production
four-stroke motorcycle producing over 100 hp (75 kW) in stock form.

The YZF-R6 has been revised several times since its introduction. Starting with the 2003 model, the R6 became
fuel-injected. The 2006 model year was a significant upgrade with a new engine management system featuring the
YCC-T ride by wire throttle and a multi-plate
slipper clutch.

YCC-I variable-length intake system to optimize power at high engine
rpm and an improved Deltabox frame design.
