2009 Yamaha FZ6R

The 600cc four-cylinder powered FZ6R looks to be a nice way for novice, or nearly novice, riders to break into sport bikes, with user friendly features like lower seat and handlebar height as well as improved wind protection from the full fairing. Yamaha has also tuned the engine and transmission to be responsive, while still being easier to modulate for newer riders. But perhaps the biggest attraction of the FZ6R for the uninitiated is the price, starting just below $7000 the new Yamaha should be a good candidate for affordable thrills to a wide swath of the population.
