#YamahaR6 #FastLaneGang #MotosAmerica
In this video I ride a 2011 Yamaha R6 that Euro Cycles of Tampa Bay (Tampa Bay Motos) has in stock. I am in search of a track bike and this one fits the bill. It is reasonably priced, minimal technology, and doesnt have too much power. However, this is KZbin and whatever I buy has to garner attention so if this does not do it then it will not work.

[@636Knight]

A man's track bike is another man's dream bike. 😮‍💨

[@HitsDelete]

Yes sir

[@kora9399]

i was at the track not too long ago and someone brought along a full carbon m1k and s1k.. :,)

[@R6_Leo]

Everyone seems to think a dream bike has to be 1000cc or more but a 600cc work of art R6 is enough to touch a man’s heart

[@yeoldmetalhead6592]

And when you finally find a good deal on your dream bike, you find out that it is some rich dudes clapped out track bike.

[@mustafayigitkartal4257]

The old gen r6 with that wasp-esque front end styling is definitely my fav, no clue why they did away with it.

[@dilly2023]

Looks so damn good

[@FastLaneD]

The styling will always have a soft spot in my heart 🔥🤘🏾 #FastLaneGang 🏁

[@BostonScreamer]

because they had the same style for almost a decade :) but this styling is my favorite

[@stevenbuteaux]

This video made me my day. Old gen r6 all day. Easier to get parts and cheaper when things don’t go your way

[@FastLaneD]

Very true…it’s definitely high on my list. I also love how this generation looks 🤘🏾 #FastLaneGang 🏁

[@jacksavage2612]

That and on the 2nd gen the seat size is wayyy bigger and more comfy.

[@user-ew5rc8kt1w]

R6 every day baby

[@ezzyriyuh]

OLD GEN ALL THA WAY BABYYYYY

[@urbanadventurer5]

I am definitely in favor of an over the top full track build. Build that mini World SBK/MotoGP inspired 600! 👍🏾👏🏾

[@FastLaneD]

That’d be innnnsane! A mini, full GYTR track build 👀🤘🏾 #FastLaneGang 🏁

[@BigTexZX10R]

I would go with a 636 or even a gsxr 750 for a track build.

[@SKEEZOTHEREALSKEEZO]

Yessir. Talk that talk!

[@FastLaneD]

Gsxr750 could definitely work…just need to ride one first 👀🤘🏾 #FastLaneGang 🏁

[@pomplardpanam8591]

The blipper makes all the différence...

[@jeremyloyd79]

My favorite bike is the 636! But I love to stunt on my bike

[@IN_ZANE_]

​@@FastLaneD Make sure it's 2011 or later

[@tylumhoffman456]

im not gon lie, a ZX6R would be game changing

[@BostonScreamer]

My r6 started as a matte gray street bike. Crashed it on track and made it a full blown race bike. Been building it ever since i got it a couple years back. Thing is a beast on track and i will never get rid of it

[@TrickRacing]

The Yamaha r6 is the greatest bike ever made in my opinion. Quick shift and auto blipper can be fitted to them since 2007 no other 600cc bike has that! I dont think any other brand 600cc has autoblipper even today !!! They win every 600 class championship since 2017 when the newer model came out. Looks the best, sounds the best

[@eriks.5829]

2024 ZX6-R with Full Exhaust, ECU Flash and Velocity Stacks... 125 hp to the wheel..She's a Screamer.. It feels like a much more robust bike compared to other 600's

[@lorenzoavila1491]

If the price is right get the R6, Perfect track Bike, And if you get it for low enough you can mod it out For the track. One of my buddies has a 2009 CBR 600 rr He rides in A group, So he's fast as f, Dusting everybody on all their new bikes, Larger displacements like 1000 cc, Smashing on BMWS1K.. It's about riding skills and that's a perfect bike to start Really learning track and how to get faster, Actually find the limits of these machines, And yourself..

[@naruto6063]

its highly recommended to get a 1000cc harley cruiser for the track!! LMAO

[@tausif.hasan.sojib82]

😂😂

[@Massacheefa]

300s and 400s basically own the track 😂

[@kidlo2050]

Zx6r is my dream and track bike. Can't wait to see you rip this bike on the track💯

[@AdventureStanger]

That’s the perfect track bike. 👍👌👊

[@kevinmckeon2543]

It has road suspension, road lines and pads, road fairings etc, but sort that and it's good to go. He'd have been better off just getting a used actual track or race bike if he wants to 'push his limits'.

[@mason8557]

@@kevinmckeon2543that’s why you change all that…

[@scottwitt7597]

08-16 R6 for sureeee. Id maybe look at one that's already decently set up for the track. If you really get into track riding, you'll soon want suspension, brakes, dampener, clips ons, list goes on and on. That stuff gets expensive. On the flip side, a stock to full track weapon R6 build would be pretty sick.

[@TinoVega99]

I’ve always said those R6s are the best looking bikes ever!! Looks faster then it is though lol

[@moe8903]

The 2008 and 2009 R6 have the most power of all the R6 years I believe

[@seanx9]

If you want to race and consider a 600 it's clearly an R6! And yes this design has still its own unique style, not too much looking like it wants to be an R1. The model after this one looks like a light R1 design-wise or like a modified R7

[@JediRhymeTrix]

If you're looking for a middleweight track weapon, I'd recommend either waiting for the KTM RC 990 or getting a Triumph Daytona 675R. The Japanese 600s have been done to death at this point.

[@FastLaneD]

Yeah, that’s my biggest hesitation…you guys have already seen an r6 track build 1000x 😅 need to think outside of the box 🤘🏾 #FastLaneGang 🏁

[@mrsmel269]

701 husky the lines are crazy different then any sport bike and in the right hands every one will be in your rear ;-)

[@kawicepticon8866]

Broski, Im not a Zuke guy ..not by a long shot but a G750 fully sorted is a weaponnnn!! I track a 1199r , A group, and its a gorilla w a ping pong paddle super fun but wears me out . I took out a g750 for a sesh that makes 142 on MR12 and omg I can ride that bike at race winning pace for hours . Take a look at a g750. Also the amount of after market support for it is massive . If I was doing a 600 ..Id do a gen 2 636 build. Im 6'2 205 street clothes so I appreciate a bigger 600.

[@UNVJAY]

DO IT, GO FOR IT! That thing is awesome!

[@raymondmateri3440]

D! Try a k5 to k7 gsxr 750 for the track. More midrange and top end power with the same frame and only a tiny bit heavier

[@Krotos1970]

I remember my 03 Gixxer 600 had an even more aggressive sitting position, of course I'm only 5'11" 178lbs, I test rode an R6 the same week and chose the Gixxer because it was lighter those years, back in late 06

[@Tae_94]

I think this is the perfect opportunity for you to try the GSXR750 out. You'll have that low/medium range power you're looking for with basically the same weight of a 600. Plus, its about time we see a suzuki on the channel, i mean damn 😂

[@jussc933]

alwayss enjoyable watching all content you make big bro as long as you have a yamaha on the channel we gunn watch 😁🤙🏽 great watch while to work

[@jussc933]

FASTT LANE GANGGG we in hereee❕

[@ItsNasty96]

Old r6 would be my option. Don’t really care for the newer headlights and new dash lol. Love the videos man, you’re my inspiration to get a bmw s1000rr

[@DakuJTenshi]

Those are aftermarket Motodynamic headlights. Very nice high-quality American made headlights. They sell out pretty every year they're made

[@Dan_Bell007]

In my opinion the R6 is one of the best track bikes. Easy to get aftermarket parts and it doesn’t break the bank to replace parts if you lay it down.

[@eliray9040]

Zx6r is wider I think then the r6 so you would feel more comfortable on it

[@FastLaneD]

I’d love to try one out! Hopefully they get one in on trade soon 🤘🏾 #FastLaneGang 🏁

[@mad151maxx4]

Best 600cc to me is honda cbr. I had a 92' cbr 600cc f2. I love that thing.❤❤

[@MotoFlows]

FastlaneD wish you would do a video on camera setup, helmet setup, settings, I think it would be cool. Just throwing some ideas. Love your content

[@CamWorthFit]

YES YES YESSSS!!! I have a 2016 R6 and I LOVE it. Make it happen brotha! You have to go 08-16 with the R6. It’s legendary.

[@MF_4]

YUP!!!! Do it!!! Perfect track build bike!!!

[@RastaMitchVlogs]

clip on's, rear sets, and suspension ( tune or upgrade) are the best first trackday mods

[@Drew-T65]

This badboy is sick…. I approved it👌🏾

[@dylankittle5079]

Older gen r6 for sure

[@tylercaputo1630]

R6 would definitely be good choice for the track plus if you do go through with the giveaway it'll put another yamaha in the garage. Giveaway build series would be dope. Plus merch sales gonna go up 💯🔥

[@HitsDelete]

Love the r6, great trackweapon

[@madguitarist63]

Get you the RS 660. Plenty of parts and it's a beloved track bike

[@justrollwithitdj6659]

Make it up to some trackdays up in the Mid Atlantic! Summit Point motorsports park will do you right !

[@RyanTebow]

Would be perfect, but i think your comfort shouldn't be ignored. Track days will be hours.. your knee hurts already you gonna feel beat up on that. A track build would be amazing never seen a motovlogger do one personally.

[@gr8dvroh26]

Definitely grab that r6!

[@aaron1015]

Buy this one and do a significant track build.

[@MrTyles1]

Definitely would love a full track bike series! You can tell you are at home when you are on the track bro!!

[@mrsmel269]

the r6 is sweet but you made it FastLane. the new stuff comes with factory quick shifters and other trick stuff. i know suzuki and kawasaki's 600's both come with quick shifters and for the track thats always a nice set up . the kawi's front suspension is a little different then what im used to. the tops (pre load / rebound adjustments are not the same on both forks ) and when i was looking around on a friends bike i couldnt find any thing connecting them together like big money liter bikes. hope your out chasing on something right now for us all. i sure wish i was but sadly banging nights . enjoy it and #livetoride

[@SirBigz]

If you decide to go with an r6, play with the sprockets and switch them up. I went from stock to a 15/47 and now a 15/48. The 15/47 felt great.

[@TheBrownHornet]

I’ve got a 2014 R6, I daily the thing, its such an amazing bike when you push it. Get the R6!

[@NordicMoto]

I HAVE WAITED FOR THIS VIDEO !!!! Best 600cc ever made? 💯% TECH can also cause you into a accdident, if you work against the bike or car while the tech trying to help you. Alot of motoGP riders turn off ABS REMEBER ISLE OF MAN TT!! THIS WEEK

[@jwashi4602]

Exactly what I was thinking. This man's track bike would be a dream bike.

[@user-mr5qx8qf2m]

Kawiiiii

[@FloridaMotoTalk]

You need a ZX-6R track bike in your life, but maybe I'm a bit biased. I've owned a 2013 R6 fully kitted for the track/racing but I'm taller and couldn't get comfy with the ergos. Now I currently on a 13' 636 and it checks all the boxes for me.

[@k4o5sfc]

Go for the one your on

[@wyattoutlaw2370]

Nice Reverse your gear linkage. Check your foot position in cornering …change to adjustable rear sets if needed.

[@CharlesMays-sw5cl]

I HAVE A 2012 KTM RC8 R 1190 AS MY TRACK BIKE.... LOVE IT

[@jonathanstowers8929]

THE BEST R6 GEN

[@BBradford1825]

I rode a R6 26 years ago and I agree. It was easy to ride. I’m a Kwai guy though so I’d have to get ZX6R. 🤔😜👍🏾

[@Sway1177]

I would say Gsxr 750. The only brand you don't own and they still produce them.

[@HustleHabit]

R6 sounds so good. I love mine. Since it's for the track, you'll be keeping it in high RPM anyway. If the price is right, go for it.

[@stevenbuteaux]

I been waiting for this video for yrs. Let’s gooooooo!!! Track bike coming soon

[@mikemendez5294]

I just got a 2012 Yamaha FZ8 as my first bike and after 250 miles I'm in love with it

[@GaryLeed-tq7uo]

My baby fr this video is special to me been waiting on it❤

[@jeremyloyd79]

If you want more mid power just gear it. Get more low end. Plus it will wheelie better to.

[@KeViNMCMXXCIX]

GSX-R 750 should have some more mid range. Kawasaki ZX6R as well. With it's 636 CC's. Same for the Triumph 765. R7/GSX-8R too even though they do have less top end. And they definitely need some mods and a tune in order to get the max out of it.

[@TherealSoloRider]

You turn the R1 to your official track bike since you’re not riding it much.. I would’ve recommended the RS660 but you’re a big dude. I think the R1 would be more ideal with your current skills I think

[@Hlywdt]

That’s what I said, especially since the r1 is paid off. Yea if something happened at the track it would suck but he wouldn’t take a big of a hit compared to the h2 etc

[@FastLaneD]

That’s a good idea…get some track fairings for it and do a track build for the channel 🤔🤘🏾 #FastLaneGang 🏁

[@ianginebra5904]

Love the R6

[@kabwelusale5943]

Love the color

[@rexyfortyfive]

I have a R6 race bike, Look at the Daytona 765 or Ducati V2

[@user-uw2ni7om8v]

Handcut teashirts suit you very beautiful.

[@FastLaneD]

Thank you 🖤🤘🏾 #FastLaneGang 🏁

[@adamwest_gsxr]

R6 allllll day

[@wayno23]

Power spread to narrow for a track bike especially for a guy who rides really faaaast bikes usually.

[@stevenbuteaux]

Buy it!!!!

[@Six3SixTay]

I’ll definitely say, the 2006 to 2016 Yamaha R6 has the sexiest tail section in the 600cc class!! The body style is pretty timeless & still looks great in today’s day & age. It just sucks they went from 2006 to 2016 doing absolutely nothing with it, but basically change the damn colors of the fairings.😂 The 60th anniversary with the gold wheels still is the nicest combo tho! On the R6 & the R1.👌🏽🔥💯 #FastLaneGang🏁 #OnTheRoadTo1Mil💪🏽

[@AveryRucker-to3el]

I love how you say the brakes need to be switched then proceed to totally rip on the roads 😂

[@stephenmims1431]

ROLL THE EXHAUST CAM BACK THAT MOVES THE POWERBAND DOWN A LITTLE

[@SaltyFlats]

Shake down on Patterson. I like.

[@parkerwithers2229]

Get the 2016 and build it! I also ride a 15 R6 and I would love to watch you build one

[@thelord4672]

babayyyyyyy all the way og gang r6 pls

[@user-do1mc5cx6s]

What an epic last couple of weeks you have had. It's awesome and inspiring to see you living your life the way you want to be. And for sure, get a 600. It would be a sad/expensive day if you went down on one of your girls.

[@tyronethomas5515]

R6 for the win Baybee

[@doubleoddbuck00]

That R6 would be perfect for the track. I would get the ECU flashed to clean up the midrange.

[@pomplardpanam8591]

U Can have a blipper because it's ride by wire on that R6 also U Can have warm up mode N pit limiter😊 N 120bwhp with ecu flash N modes thé dashboard Can be changed starlane brand bro

[@nosherwannadeem7218]

Old gen R6!!

[@jacksavage2612]

Older! It’s more relatable to the average viewers. Average viewers can’t spend 25-30k on a bike. I’m on a 2nd gen r6 now after riding a ninja 400 for 4 years. Whole time watching you wishing I could get a r6. So definitely cool to see ya come full circle. You have the nostalgia but there is more benefits to the older R6s than the newer ones do ya research 👍🏼

[@jacksavage2612]

I’m on a 07 R6S model. I got it with 2,400 miles for 5k.

@@FastLaneD I’ve ridden 2 different ones on track of my buddies. I came from an 07 R6. My opinion wouldn’t be the best buttttt the front end feel is better with the bigger forks. Newer dash is cool. Think they have a few rider aids like TC.

Take a big wheel on the track you will be able to do spin outs the the curves lol...

[@FrostyWhe3ls]

Why not set your BMW up with quick release track fairings and a track tank so you can rest assured it will be cheaper to fix. I mean no offence; but it’s very unlikely you’ll need wings at the level you’re at. Then when you’re done with that bike on track swap em back over
