Yamaha motorcycles never compromise on quality, and this is reflected in the design and performance of the XJ Series. When you’re comfortable on a motorcycle, that’s when you have fun. Whether leisure riding or commuting that’s what the XJ Series will mean: real riding pleasure.
Yamaha’s Art of Engineering philosophy makes you feel at one with the machine, and the XJ Series’ 4-cylinder engine is crucial to this with smooth power delivery whenever you open throttle. This combination of cutting-edge technology and attention to detail is paramount to the XJ-Series and creates the confidence every rider should experience.
Power you can handle
Enjoy easy, smooth power whether it’s on the city streets or as you open up and head into the country. The 600cc fuel-injected engine is superbly responsive and a newly designed clutch makes for much smoother gear shifting. An aerodynamic half-fairing will help to protect you from the elements whatever speed you’re at.
Great roadholding and excellent handling
The reassurance of taking the twists and turns that make for an enjoyable ride comes from knowing you have excellent support underneath you. The XJ6 Diversion features 41 mm front forks and monocross rear suspension, as well as lightweight cast wheels to keep unsprung weight low – and to guarantee a smooth ride.
Enhanced agility
Great torque at low revs is a signal that the XJ6 Diversion means business – but it’s the inclusion of a four-into-one exhaust with midship muffler which contributes to centralise mass, that underlines this bike’s enhanced agility. You’ll also feel in command, too, courtesy of adjustable handlebars that allow you to dictate the best riding position.
New lightweight frame
Yamaha has given the XJ6 Diversion a new tubular frame that has been designed to provide easy handling. It also helps to emphasise the bike’s slim appearance – and it weighs in at an impressively lightweight 211 kg (216 kg for ABS version).
Storage that suits you
The XJ6 Diversion is a motorcycle that can cope with your flexible lifestyle. For added functionality we offer as Genuine Yamaha accessory a sturdy rear carrier and a big 46-litre topcase so you can easily stow away an overnight bag or shopping. An under-seat storage compartment features a U-lock for added security.
ABS option
Ride with increased confidence thanks to responsive ABS, which helps prevent skidding and brings you to a controlled stop.
