Ohh ok..!! So, it is available in 2 variants....Originally posted by ken cool View PostThe R6 with the stubby exhaust came in 06, way before it came on the Blade.
The R6 does come in two variants, the one here is with the stubby exhaust: 2008 Yamaha YZF-R6 specifications and pictures
And the R6 'S' version is the other version here with the longer exhaust, both available on 08:

Hi Inder..Originally posted by inder.cool View PostHey Vivek..!! Congrats for your new Bike...!!
I had one query here....wasn't the new R6 having the exhaust like the new Fireblade...i.e half exhaust(as seen in the below pic)..!! OR does it come in 2 variants...!!

these are two differnt models altogether
one is the R-6 and the other is the R-6S
not only in looks ..but the compression ration and even the boreXstroke differs in both. and price diff is about 1300 USD.
However congrates for the New Yamaha yaar..anything in that CC of motor is awsome..ride safe
Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

There is one more difference ... The Front Suspension Forks are Normal way up, not upside down, like most Supersports ...Originally posted by R-series View PostHi Inder..

In fact, this was so shocking to me, I thought it was a modified bike ...

Thanks All!
Like many have pointed out, the R6S and R6 are different. The R6 is the current generation R6 with the gp exhaust. The R6S (that I bought) is essentially the '05 R6.
Reasons that I chose the 'S' over the R6 were...
1) Better Ergos (I use this to commute in L.A Traffic)
2) Better street manners
3) It can get off a stoplight without having to scream its lungs out
4) Looks better (which is highly subjective.. but just look at that face
)
5) Still a potent track weapon
Oh.. and this was the only 600 ever to be Sport Rider magazine's 'Bike of the Year'

Thats a stunner of a machine vivek, congratulations mate!
Beg to differ sunny, the 11, and sub 11 sec runs started happening only in the 2006 speedrun, and those too were on a red R1, and a yellow gixxer 1000.Originally posted by koolsun View PostCongratulations sir! thats a very sweet ride,looks gr8 with the golden mags combi
,i had first seen an r6 perform at the 2004 speed run held in mumbai at bandra reclamation and i was surprised at the times it clocked i think it did some sub 11 secs then,it was the fastest 600 in the event.anyways enjoy the ride,ride safe bro!
Since then the times have just gotten lower, but i don't remember seeing any 600 do a sub 11 run till the last speedrun.
