The Yamaha YZF600R (known as the Thundercat in European markets) is a 599cc sports bike made by Yamaha from 1994 to 2007. While similar in style to its sibling the YZF-R6 the 600R maintains some significant differences including a less aggressive posture lower revving and higher torque producing motor and a large 1 piece seat.

Overview[edit]

First offered for sale in North American markets in 1994 the YZF600R underwent a major aesthetic restyling in 1997 and was introduced to Europe in 1996 as a replacement to the FZR600. It retained major mechanical components such as the engine transmission suspension components and steel "Deltabox" frame which is perhaps the largest contributor to its hefty weight when compared to the modern competition.

With its liquid cooled inline 4-cylinder engine; power at the rear wheel was 87.7hp (65.4kW) @11250rpm[1] the YZF600R Thundercat is a comfortable and road minded sports bike. While it weighs in at 491lb (223kg) with fluids it is still capable of 150mph (240km/h). Its comfortable seating position and relatively torquey motor make it suitable for sport touring applications while the fully adjustable suspension and Sumitomo One piece brakes (later used on the R1 and R6) also make it a good choice for track racing.

Yamaha produced and marketed the YZF600R in the United States and Canada for 13 years with little more than periodic aesthetic updates.

Emerging emissions restrictions ended sale of the Thundercat in Europe in 2005 and the YZF600R was discontinued in the United States and Canada in 2008 replaced by the previous generation fuel-injected YZF-R6 rebadged YZF-R6S.
