Yamaha Announces Track Focused, Non-Homologated, R6 RACE 17 November 2020 Motorcycles Yamaha’s illustrious range of race bikes have enjoyed success from the pinnacle of racing, MotoGP and FIM Superbike World Championship, to grassroot series and track days. The Yamaha R6, introduced in 1999, has been the Supersport bike of choice since its creation and the 2021 model will be available exclusively as a non-homologated version, while a dedicated R6 GYTR Kit is being introduced from January 2021 for the ultimate track day experience. Racing History After scoring its maiden victory on only its second outing, with Jamie Whitham in the 1999 FIM Supersport World Championship’s visit to Donington Park, the Yamaha R6 has since taken the likes of Jörg Teuchert, Cal Crutchlow, Chaz Davies, Sam Lowes, Lucas Mahias, Sandro Cortese and Randy Krummenacher to world titles. This year, Andrea Locatelli joined that list after a record-breaking season with the R6, which continues to prove itself as the leading choice in WorldSSP.
