Default 2009 Yamaha lineup will be release at 3pm EST on 8 Sep.

Just saw it on their site. Didn't specify which models, but I imagine it'll have the R6/R1 in there. Can't wait! I may have found a buyer for my bike and since I owe less that what it's worth I could actually have money to put down this time. I priced it kinda high, which includes the track goodies I have. Reason is because I kinda don't want to start a whole new financing deal on a new bike, but if he gives me what I want, it's sold. I'm asking $7,500 which includes everything I have for the street plus my track 'glass and spare set of wheels (I paid over $1,700 for all that). That'll give me a solid $2,500 to put down on a new one (R6).

Anyway, I'm setting my alarm for noon tomorrow!

Maybe I'm getting cheap at my old age of 27 but until I hit the lottery, I won't buy another vehicle brand new...

Since Yamaha brought out the 08 R6, the 09 shouldn't be too much of a change. If you consider the average 2 year redesign cycle of the 600's, there should be a bad ass 600RR coming!

Well of course....


Allow me to qualify that statement...I'd ride that green bike, if I was into that sort of thing.
