Yamaha gives a facelift to its excellent (entry) XJ6 range for 2013. Among other things, slightly retouched lines on the and new practical aspects on its more road versions, the and .
2013 XJ6: sportier and more practical
Easy to take in hand (205 kg all full) and playful in the towers (78 hp at 10,000 rpm), the XJ6 appeals to beginners and bikers on the return (read in particular our). In order to maintain the success of this 600 cc roadster, Yamaha has slightly revitalized its front end via redesigned radiator scoops and headlight casing..
The whole gives off an impression of sportiness more assertive than before, just like the use of clear turn signal cabochons. At all good for the ego of the young license !
The little Japanese girl also takes care of the passenger’s reception with new handles designed for a better grip and increased comfort.
Appearance unchanged, the half-analog (tachometer) half-digital (speed, time, engine temperature, odometer, trips and fuel gauge) dashboard has LED lighting which should improve its readability. Finally, a non-slip saddle cover appears, as well as a position indicator responsible for facilitating the tension of the chain transmission..
According to our information, the Yamaha XJ6 model 2013 is already available in white "Competition White" and black "Midnight Black" at a price of € 6,599 (€ 7,099 with ABS). Or a slight increase of 100 euros compared to the price – excluding promotion – of the current model.
2013 XJ6 Diversion and XJ6 Diversion F: almost the same as the same
The XJ6 Diversion and XJ6 Diversion F, more or less streamlined versions made on the basis of the XJ6 (read in particular our and our), only benefit from part of the changes made to the roadster. Indeed, the two small road cars do not benefit from the small facelift granted to the "naked" XJ6..
The changes made to these two small cars are therefore confined to the new passenger handles, the more readable dashboard, the non-slip seat cover, the clear indicators and the chain tension indicator..
The 2013 Yamaha XJ6 Diversion and XJ6 Diversion F will be available in "Competition White". Their availability and price remain to be confirmed by Yamaha France.
Currently, they are displayed at promotional prices of € 6,399 (Diversion without ABS) and € 6,999 (Diversion F without ABS) in. Given the modesty of the changes made, the likely increase should also be fairly measured.
