2010 Yamaha FZ6 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Yamaha for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2010 Yamaha FZ6 pairs a 600 cc (36.6 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 51.6 Nm (38.1 lb-ft) at 8,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 65.5 x 44.5 mm (2.6 x 1.8 inches) with a 12.2:1 compression ratio.

On the scales, the FZ6 measures 208.2 kg (459 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 795 mm (31.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,440 mm (56.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 19.3-liter (5.1 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5.88 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 328 km (204 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 193 km/h (120 mph).
