Yamaha R6 Why you Dont want this Bike 

Love mine 😂

He is a complete idiot trolling for clicks. He never even hits the power band. Get on my sons r6. Twist the handle a little bit and hit the red line. You will be holding on for dear life.

@@smileydag What he means is that the power at low rpm's isn't impressive, it feels dead. But at high RPM, that's where the r6's and r1 and r1m's hit the powerband, it not only sounds amazing but they reach good top speeds.

@Player 1 Very accurate. My friend is a Yamaha fanatic, he had every r6 since his first one in 08. They feel very dead when you're on low RPM, but when you open them up a bit you really can feel that power. They also sound amazing.

@@smileydag so hes "a complete idiot" and you spend your time watching his videos ?? 🙄😏

Holy shit

Lmfao dude 😂😂

I cranked up mine the first time and thought I had space in the straightaway. I reached that turn so fast I wasn't ready to turn and almost went off the road. Never gonna forget that, it was amazing. Also a good reminder why bikes like these are bad for newbies.

The first time that happened to me I felt my nuts get a little bit bigger

I hit the power band for the first time and I got the same feeling as I did on a rollercoaster pure power

Got 2012 r6 also.. fricking love it all I ever need for road

I just got one as my first bike, never ridden before. Just taking my time learning about the bike and I won't be taking it past the neighborhood until I've had my riding courses.

@@soph541 hey I'm doing that in a few days

I have a 02 r6, absolutely love it, bigger sprocket and the dynojet kit, big difference

Bought a crf450l end of last year then bought an mt09 few months ago.

Just got my ‘03 limited edition R6, A2 restricted 34kw/47hp (since I’m euro boy) best choice I’ve made

@Honour Reverse counting intensifies ..... 5....4....3....2....1...

I’m debating between the r6 and zx6r everyone says the zx6r is better

You’re still a Dbag lol

Taylor Shockley which zx6r tho? I had the 2006 636 and that thing hurt my wrists and knuckles more then the r6 I got the r6 2008 and I find it more comfortable then the 636 I had

Had a 2009 zx6r best 600 to get imo.

MUFC 91 I got a 2009 zx6r last month and it’s been a absolute Pleasure since I was worried about my wrist and back hurting and they did the first day but after that I got used to it and it hasn’t hurt since glad I went with the zx6r

a little bottom is flat by definition. we like a lot of bottom. just not fat

It made no sense because he likes guys

Hey I like boobies too.. and they don't have to be huge... 😂😂😂

Yeah till you want some good top😂

Facts!!!

curious he prayed it would be ok

He's not wearing much gear, but he is wearing a helmet at least

No one wears gear I've noticed. Except me I always suit up

no its that stupid thing where he talks about all that religious bullsh*t stuff no one cares about

I ride insanely fast, but ride with I'll gear, but I drive causious while being fast does it make sense? No

My first bike was a 2014 r6

@@nextstepautodetailingllc969 thinking about getting one during winter when there cheap. How was your experience? I will be taking a class and also learning off buddy’s.

Its a horrible first bike for a newbie. Low speed maneuvers are a pain if you dont know what you’re doing, aggressive riding style can cause wrist pain and death wobbles if you dont know how to properly ride, high rpm power band takes a lot of mental power and focus to stay into which you dont want especially if youre still consciously thinking about your cornering lines, braking, shifting, and counter steering already. But if you want something that you can actually learn on and have more fun in a safer way then 300-500 twins really is the way to go.

@@triyo1089 Its not a horrible beginners bike it depends who starts on it and how mature you are. I started on a R6 when i was 21 as my first biking with only have ridden sports quads before hand. I took it slow tried to master all the slow maneuvers before going past 9k rpm. i promised to myself that i wouldnt go past it in the first month no matter how good i got a slow maneuvers. And thats what i did. I graduatelly build from there. Been riding for 2.5 years now never had any accidents, tank slappers or dropped it and Still have a R6 just a newer one, i am fairly tall so i dont have to lean on my wrists . Its not a bike you should joke about, but if youre mature with it and disciplined its perfectly fine.

@@ThegreenamgIts nice to have 2 points of view but I will just explain who I am and maybe you guys would have a better understanding of why I picked an r6. So I am mature enough know how dangerous they are and I know I'm not invincible so I'm going to ride in higher gears so I don't pop a wheelie lol. I'm also going to be taking a class for about 2-3 days on just learning the basics and getting all the protective gear. Financially getting a ninja 300 is about $4-5k here and if i just got some 600cc they are about $5-8k.

yeah sorry buddy - i rode one and was underwhelmed. my v twin 1000 pulls the front wheel up before 3000rpm with no clutch abuse. in normal road use - its in a fat power band wayyyy before this thing decides to get out of bed and wake up. nah sorry, don't like pissy 600's. keep tap dancing on your gear shifter.... not for me.

Anthony Spanjich some people like track racing

Anthony Spanjich lol That R6 would spank your big 1000 cc v twin

@@chop2093 at a track - more often than not, i agree. they brake better and turn on a dime and i get annoyed as they nip up inside me at the track. I tried mates cbr600, zx6 and r6 (in the fast group). when i got angry with them and rung them out, they were very quick whereas mine was dropping off at the top end. but i spend 98% of my time street riding now. this is where excellent bottom end / midrange shines. i've had screamers before (kr250, rd350lc and then the beast - rg500 with mods) i loved them. i'm old now so i've gone vfr1200f recently with many mods (kept my trusty sp2 for now but its getting painful). the vfr is no match at the track to dedicated sports bikes (yes, I took it and it pogo sticked its way through bends with its heavy shaft drive - leaving weird skids as 600's slaughtered me) but it sure does honk everywhere in the rpm, i can ride all day and don't need to be stretchered off it . (197 rwhp with everything i could think of shoved on it) not bagging your bike. i went through a fun screamer craze for 10 years when i was young. we have all sorts of bikes to choose from.... my preference is immense grunt but i don't bag 600's for what they were designed to do. try a big vtwin or v4... you may like it when you get back pain, old etc?

Anthony Spanjich no. R6 smokes your bike anywhere doing anything

I started on a 750 I like 750s I like you tooO🤣😭😭 but everybody keeps saying gay an r6/1 because of my writing style. Whatever I’m broke anyways.

Ryan Miller ikr 😂

Sometimes you have to

The motors are alot more solid at starting once over 100 temp. Cold blooded hyper animals.

It probably needs a valve adjustment lol

@@mx4menot4u Ive had 2, and they always started right up.

Haha... Savage

Deal is 100 or under.

Wya

Lmfao i was thinking the same thing

Steve Rivera right!! Haha

Nice to hear 👏 just bought my first bike, 2006 R6. Took MSF using a Honda Rebel.. quite different power lol. I’ve spent the first two days playing with neutral and first 😂

@@flirtyhershee those gears are important if you want to get anywhere. And if you don’t want to fall over at stop lights😂

Yup, but then they made the FZ-09/MT-09 and they made it so people could actually flip over

@@matojxr1 you could already do that with the R1

HelpMe R6’s cost more than ninjas?

Idiot

I’ve had An R1 and a CBR600rr and currently an R6 I suggest the Honda for sure as a super sport starter much better power delivery for someone learning the clutch better seat position and the small things like a gas gauge are necessary sometimes for the beginner rider now I’m not saying R6 is a bad bike just Honda is better for beginners I believe

Yea I am thinking of starting on an r6

is the consumption disgusting when used for town commuting?

​@@manbiteslife3110it's pretty good at saving fuel. But commuting this bike at low speed is the second last thing you want to do on this bike.

whats the first @@amin7581

@@amin7581 May I ask what the first one is?

Video in a nutshell. "Normal riding. Boring, sucks. Anything outside that, great bike." 🤔

I agree that it's not a good first bike though. I don't think I would've made it home with the R6 had I not had experience on the SV. It was certainly a different ball game but the basics and even some of the finer details of riding I learned from the SV helped so much with riding the R6. I'll admit I was a bit scared I would lay it down when I test rode it, but here I am a few hundred miles later getting comfortable with the bike finally (but not overly confident; I know my limits).

is the r6 suitable for daily use? is it a street bike

@@themaestro2209 it's a bit of a pain in the ass in the first days, but, with time, you can use it...

Mohamed Mesbah it’s transportation just like any other 600cc maybe with a little less low end torque, my yzfr6 was great for commuting in town

Pretty much. And is also clickbait from the title

r6= negligible bottom end.... lame midrange, and wild top end. that forces you to get to the top end to have any discernable fun.... which is too fast for most road use and just leaves disappointment until you get there. probably a great track bike but an utterly crap street bike requiring ballerina gearshift skills (eg 3 cogs down from cruising) to make the thing wake up.... and then upshift back into gutless territory when you're done. I hated it.... but loved it when I got angry and strangled it? I completely agree with Shaun.

Kudos for keeping your R6 all these years, that's awesome!! :)

Zach D I’ve got an 11. Second bike I’ve owned. Had it for over a year and finally decided I might keep it a while so modding it

Thank you

Yea until you accidentally hit the power band mid turn bc you’re new and have no throttle control 😂

@@triyo1089 Haha yeah definitely need to know your bike whether you're a noob or a pro lol

@@darkrebel123 i just mean that power band is dangerous for newbies lol

Uhh no lol the minute you hit 2nd the r1 pulls away like it's nothing

I always let my baby warm up to 140 before leaving

Currently in school for motorcycle mechanics. Depending on the ambient temperature if you let your bike sit for more than 15 seconds idling you're not hurting or harming it.

Warmup should be for 2 to 3 min... depending on engine capacity...once it idle normal... it's good to go.....

Ypu never warm a bike, go read a manual

@@iinsomniacz always warm up ....let the oil circulate...... throughout the engine ....

Agreed, I went -1 on the front sprocket of my zx9r and its awesome on curvy roads but straight line top end not so much.

Just did this to my FZ6. Has an 03 R6 engine in it and it's a world of difference

lucky seven I ride my dads zx9r , and he said he changed he sprockets for better acceleration. Which ones would that be

Semko K bigger sprockets on back, smaller on front, which is what this guy did. It limits the top speed of the bike but gives it more torque, which helps acceleration

IMTHEDARKNIGHT - oh ok ty

Yikes

Yamaha r6 is nothing like your Ninja 300

Same I have to let my bike sit for atleast 3mins before riding off due to that lag feel

Big sexy Who say’s you’re too old for an R1? 😄

@@lth1999 2009 Yamaha fz6r its a great bike for taller riders but if you're under 5 foot 5 then the Kawasaki and Suzuki are better for you Honda and Yamaha make motorcycles for taller riders i find.

MonstaFreak13 eh I went straight from a ninja 250 to a naked sv1000. Took a little bit but I can go through twisties just fine and through the city it has INSANE torque

@Rays Through Trees, Summer Breeze not very good I bet

Your 636 would smoke an r6 what do u mean

facts, it would really dust all other 600s the gsxr and r6 would give it a run but its really the best 600

my 02 SV650S still puts them to shame off the line.. They still don't have the low end torque a V-twin does ... Sprockets don't fix low end torque that much

Was looking for this comment lmao

Why change your mind when you’re right 😂

Derek Becker currently riding a CBR300R, just started riding an exact month ago. Got the bike on 6/29/19 and I’m already at 680 miles, I need to take it for the 600-mile service already haha, everyone around me is in a 600/650 though .. 😢
