YAMAHAXJ 600N 1994 - 2002

　　The Yamaha XJ 600 was a motorcycle made by Yamaha from 1984 to 1991 when it was replaced by the Yamaha Diversion/Seca II. The bike was lightweight and was dressed in a top-half fairing.

　　In 1994, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Yamaha XJ 600N, a motorcycle identical to the XJ 600S, except that it came naked as opposed to the top fairing of the S version. In addition, the N version packed a different instrument panel that turned with the handlebar. Also, the bike was not sold in North America.

　　In the visual department, the bike had standard features, such as a round headlight on the front with two gauges mounted on top, a one-piece dual seat with passenger grab rails, a dual exhaust system with a silencer on each side, and lightweight three-spoke aluminum wheels.

　　The 1994 Yamaha XJ 600N had its heartbeat set by a 598cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine fed by four Mikuni carburetors, delivering an output power of 62 hp with a peak force at 8,500 rpm and 54 Nm (40 lb-ft) torque at 8,000 rpm.

　　The power produced by the engine was transferred to a six-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-plate clutch and sent to the rear end through a final chain drive, pushing the motorcycle to 179 kph (111 mph).
