R6 street bikes discontinuing

In WERA, not likely...not for quite a few years.

The “all new” R6 still has the same frame and motor as the previous R6. They did make some changes to the electronics, different forks, and I believe different rotors.

But unless somebody is running a lap record pace, those small changes won’t make a big difference. Which is why the previous generation R6 continued to run up front all over the world, even after the new one came out.

Seeing how a 2006-2020 R6 is still capable of winning at the Club level, I don’t see this affecting the SS grids for some time.

So when does the new R6.37 get introduced?

 

plus they will need consumables and engine rebuilds. A lucrative market!

 

man, Yamaha is taking the loss to Kawi over the extra 36cc's pretty hard.

Or is it 37cc's?

 

I just sold one a couple of years ago

 

Wouldn’t be an R6 equivalent but I’d love to see Yamaha put together an FZ07R model:

10lbs less
10hp more
Racier ergos
Leftover R6 boingers
TFT dash and electronics.

be a great streetbike that would compete with the new Ape RS660.

 

Might be the Hayabusa. Discontinued in Euroland, still available in the US.

 

Would a 2021 R6 be legal if it is unchanged from the homologated 2020?

 

Only if Mongo says so.

 

Ducati and Triumph have been in talks with World Supersport about the Panigale V2 and 765...

 

Put money into development of an MT-07 race spec model to compete with the new RS660.

 

True, and I’ve heard this for years, but if a modern R1M or similar costs 23k and used to cost 14k, then surely an awesome cutting edge 600 can be made for 14k now right?

This is fucking retarded and pisses me off.

 

You can thank the new Euro Emission standards.

 

"I'm from the government, I'm here to help" neat

 

The world is completely fucked up

 

Just more 2020 fuckery.

 

This is the next step on the journey back to 750s, maybe 800s.

 

if they're gonna do this, how about make a "GYTR" upgrade that is a 500 CC 2 stroke twin. just sayin.

 

Just so the Aprilia can release the RS690? lol....
