2006 Yamaha YZF600R Sport Bike reviews

I purchased this bike with 0 riding time on a bike before. It was fairly easy to learn how to ride on this bike. It is balanced well, power is their after you get it past 9000rpm. MPG average is 45+ from what I have read elsewere and after almost 100 miles it took only about a gallon and a half to fill back up. Looks sharp and is fun to ride. Show less

This bike is a great starter or good for someone who likes to go fast but doesn't want back problems. It has enough power to pick up a wheelie in second gear but also tame enough so you wife/girlfriend can learn to ride it. Overall a well rounded bike. Show less

I had not been on a bike for 15 years, but knew it was time again. This road warrior was just the right ticket for someone who needed to get his feet wet again, but not have the wits scared out of him. I have taken it on some long mountain road trips, and it has kept me on the edge of my seat on more than one accasion. The muscle is there, the balance is there, and it does deserve respect in the corners. You will love this bike if you are just starting out again. Show less

This is my first bike, never even rode one before but all the good reviews sold me on the YZF. Was easy to learn to ride, great beginner bike. I'm extremely happy with my purchase. I'll be riding my YZF for a long time. Show less

I bought my 2004 YZF600R used. What a great bike. Handles the twisties well, is very forgiving, yet has enough power to keep me satisfied. Comfort is far and away better than all of the supersport lay-on-the-tank bikes out there, but with a good rider, can keep up with the best of them. I highly recommend this bike to anyone who wants power and performance without completely sacrificing comfort on longer rides. Show less

After a 15 year hiatus and 3 months of intensive review/research I finally made my selection and purchased this bike (color:Raven) 3 weeks ago. I am 100% thrilled!!!!! Can't think of a downside to this baby. I needed a break from my gas guzzling 05 Yukon and decided on this beauty for day to day hustle to work as well as for my planned weekend jaunts. She's powerful, sleek, ultra comfortable, and just know how and when to respond to my every command. No regrets in my purchase. Utterly fantastic!!! Show less

This is my first bike in over 30 years. In the 70s I had a Suzuki 250 trailbike. I was doubtful that a 600cc bike would be big enough for me at 300lbs. No doubt, this bike can fly! At only 200 miles, I'm trying to be easy on it, but I can tell the power is there. Very comfortable, smooth and good looking. Can't wait to open it up. Show less

This is a great bike it's really safe and fast! It makes a great ride for beginners! Show less

I'm very happy with this bike. Stable for around town riding, fast for keeping up with the bigger machines, and comfortable for longer trips. I purchased this bike primarily based on all the positive reviews available. It's a bike you'd be very pleased with. Show less

I just recently purchased this bike and I am very pleased with it. The bike is far more comfortable than the "traditional race" bike, but has plenty of power. I love the 600R. Show less
