Available in Tech Black, the stripped down R6 RACE is the perfect bike for everyone from track day riders through to hungry racers who want to make their name with their first major victory. With so many WorldSSP titles to its credit, the lightweight 599cc inline four-cylinder engine has proved that it's the fastest in the business and with its Yamaha Chip Controlled Intake (YCC-I) and Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) as well as a slipper clutch, close ratio 6-speed transmission and Quick Shift System (QSS) the track-ready R6 RACE gives you the highest level of controllability on every circuit.
