About this model
About the Bimota YB 6
The Bimota YB6 is Bimota's Yamaha-powered sports line of 1988–1990. The original YB6 uses the 989cc Yamaha FZR1000 Genesis inline four; in 1989 Bimota added the YB6 EXUP with the 1,002cc FZR1000 EXUP engine and the exclusive YB6 Tuatara. Those names are technically important: the EXUP has a different 1,002cc basis, while the Tuatara is its own 989cc version. Keep YB6, YB8, YB10 and YB11 strictly separate: they use different model names, production periods and Yamaha donor bases. On every classic Bimota, verify original frame, engine and documentary numbers before identifying its trim or parts.

- Verify type plate, frame number, engine code and year before ordering parts.
- Check engine, fuel system and cold/hot starting for leaks and stable running.
- Test transmission or drivetrain, clutch and brakes under load for slip or shudder.
- Check battery, charging, lights, instruments and loom.
- Inspect frame, fork, tyres, wheels and plastics for wear or damage.
