Yamaha is offering to buy back the new 06 R6 from anyone that has purchased one!
They over advertised the 17,500 redline and doesnt look like its able to hit it. Real redline is at 16,000 RPMs, the tach is reading 9% off. Check out the picture of the letter below. (btw this isnt a doctored letter etc, its from an MRA member that took the picture, and received the letter from yamaha!)
