Yamaha Motor Europe presents through a pretty fun and entertaining promotional video one of the motorcycles with which they plan to dominate the naked category in 2009, the XJ6 Naked. The bike does indeed look sharp and it is also a great alternative to the Kawasaki ER-6n.
Yamaha Motor Europe had the inspired idea of creating a video which takes prospects through Diversion’s technical features, familiarizing them with the bike and making it easier to make a decision.
Recently launched, the clip is supposed to increase sells so the bike is presented as an all-new one even though it is derived from the FZ6, Fazer in Europe.
The revised inline-four now manages a decent 59,7 Nm @ 8,500 rpm and 78 Hp @ 10,000 rpm considering the bike’s 216 kilos and the versatile character.
Yamaha thought that its 2009 European lineup needs an adequate entry-level bike, something like the recently launched FZ6R, but a little more scenic. The solution came by reviving an old sport-touring bike, the Yamaha XJ6 Diversion which is also the name of the 2009 bike now ready to hit the streets of Europe. > More
