Race Blu for Yamaha XJ6

Last month Yamaha announced a series of cosmetic updates for its naked XJ6, semi-faired XJ6 Diversion and fully-faired XJ6 Diversion F.

Now the firm has revealed that all three bikes will also be offered in a limited availability ‘Race Blu’ colour scheme. Inspired by the livery of the works MotoGP team, the finish consists of Matt Grey bodywork with Yamaha Blue highlights and wheels.

If the XJ6 models don’t appeal, the YZF-R125, YZF-R6, FZ8, Fazer8 and YZF-R1 are all getting the Race Blu treatment too.

Although top speed is virtually unchanged at 121 mph (195 km/h), the 0-62 mph (100 km/h) acceleration time is slashed from 9.9 to 8.7 seconds.
