No mention of the 94-96 YZF600?? I think it needs to be addressed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{1}}}|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/{{{1}}}|contribs]])

[edit] Known Issues Edits

I undid the 2007-02-22 change regarding shifting issues as the edit was anonymous and there were no citations listed for the claim that the issues are caused by inexperienced riders. --Baggend 08:23, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

There is indeed a common problem with the second gear slipping out, and it is partly due to poor shifting technique and the relative great distance between first and second. It's maybe something that is worth mentionning IMO and is talked at length on many forums (yzf600r.com). How do we go about referencing that? --Attig (talk) 12:27, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sports VS Sports Touring

I thought Thundercat was a Sports Touring bike. Netrat_msk (talk) 21:21, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

It's a super sport bike that was eventually replaced by the R6 super sport. Roguegeek (talk) 22:10, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

It was meant as a supersport. But as bikes with more aggressive and track focused bikes came into the market is is now regarded as a Sports Tourer by some commenters. It's a debatable point depending on what your definition of a sports tourer is.--Attig (talk) 12:32, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
