YAMAHAXT 600 1999 - 2003

　　The Yamaha XT 600 was a motorcycle manufactured by Yamaha from 1984 until 2003. The bike replaced the XT 550 and featured design changes but also a downgrade of the fuel tank, shrinking it to 11.5 liters from a long-range 30-liter tank used by the 600ZL Teneres model.

　　In 1999, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Yamaha XT 600, which was designated as the Yamaha XT 600E, packing the same features as the previous model with several modifications.

　　In the aesthetic department, the 1999 XT 600 was equipped with standard features, such as a high-mounted front fender, a small rectangular headlight integrated into a small cowl, a one-piece dual seat, engine bars, a high-mounted exhaust system, and lightweight wire-spoke wheels.

　　Suspension-wise, the motorcycle packed a 41 mm oil-damped telescopic fork on the front with 225 mm of travel and a preload-adjustable mono-cross suspension system with 220 mm of travel, offering optimum suspension performance and handling.

　　As for the braking performance, the bike relied on a 267 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the front wheel and a 220 mm disc tied to a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel, offering optimum stopping performance.

　　The 1999 Yamaha XT 600 had its soul brought to life by a 595cc four-stroke single-cylinder air-cooled engine fed by a single carburetor, delivering an output power of 45 hp at 6,500 rpm and 50 Nm (37 lb-ft) torque at 5,500 rpm.
