YAMAHAXJ6 Diversion 2009 - Present

　　The Yamaha XJ6 Diversion was a newly released model that debuted in 2009 as a relaunch of the Diversion line. It debuted alongside the XJ6 N naked and the XJ6 Diversion F fully faired models. Also, the XJ6 Diversion F was the European version of the FZ6R American model.

　　In addition to the new appearance with more modern lines, the new Diversion line had switched to a new liquid-cooled four-cylinder engine, keeping the same 600 cc displacement of its predecessors.

　　In 2009, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Yamaha XJ6 Diversion, a motorcycle dressed in a half fairing. The bike was designed to be attractive and easy to use but also offered lots of fun.

　　The 2009 half-naked machine had standard features, such as a half-fairing with a single headlight unit, a tall windscreen for better protection, a one-piece dual seat with pillion grab rails, an under-belly exhaust system, a belly pan, and five-spoke alloy wheels.

　　A diamond-shaped die-cast aluminum frame was the mounting point of a 43 mm telescopic fork with 130 mm of wheel travel on the front and a single shock absorber on the rear with 130 mm wheel travel, providing optimum suspension performance and handling.

　　At its core, the 2009 Yamaha XJ6 Diversion had installed a 600cc four-stroke liquid-cooled four-cylinder engine that delivered an output power of 78 hp at 10,000 rpm and 60 Nm (44 lb-ft) torque at 8,500 rpm.
