Enter the new 2013 Yamaha XJ6 SP, a new naked menacing bike we instantly fell in love with. XJ6s looked cool back in the day too, but the edgy lines of the modern models are more appealing than ever, and this special edition darkened color scheme is even better.
Engineered as a daily bike fit for both commuting and some friendly twisties racing, the 2013 Yamaha XJ6 SP sports a 600cc 4-cylinder in-line power unit which is more than capable to offer a thrilling ride, solo or with a pillion passenger.

With 77.5 PS and 59.7 Nm (44 lb-ft) torque, this fuel injected bike is also equipped with a 6-speed gearbox providing both the city-slicker acceleration and highway speed with ease. The racing-inspired dash is neatly complemented by the fighter-class belly pan and pointy chin and lightweight 5-spoke wheels.

An ABS version is available for €7,149 ($9,305), while the non-ABS 2013 Yamaha XJ6 SP retails for €6,449 ($8,395), Europe markets.
