Yamaha Motor Sales will launch the track-only YZF-R6 Race Base at ¥1,375,000 on February 26, 2027. It's a build-to-order model with a reservation window through August 31, and the company has announced that this final order run will bring production to a close.
The R6 is a working tool that's raised countless riders on track. I know firsthand how much a 600-class bike can sharpen you. If this is truly the last order window, anyone who genuinely wants to ride it hard has no time to hesitate.

Is the street-legal version of the R6 no longer being sold?
It's already been killed by emissions regulations. This is the final competition-only order.
Ordering by end of August really feels like being rushed. It's a 'last chance' sales tactic, but anyone who wants one has no choice but to buy.
Race-base means competition-only with no safety equipment. You'd be stuck if you mistakenly bought it thinking it's street-legal.
1.375 million yen for a track-only, non-plated bike, that price is pretty bold.
This is the last R6, miss this and you'll never buy one new again. Might even be a bargain.
So the R6's production is finally ending... feels like the last flame of a parallel-four 600 supersport is going out, it's sad.
