Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy NY has the following for sale:

2001 Yamaha R6
1800 miles
Pulled from wrecked bike
Case is cracked at the mounting point on the timing chain cover. Can be welded back into place. This can either be done by us, or by the purchaser.
We bought this engine to test, but never used it because of the way it is packaged. We felt the CofG to be too high with the way they relocated the tranny compared to the YZF600 (which we've used since 1995). So we moved to a different brand. A lot of teams out there are using the R6 successfully though, so we're offering ours for sale here.

Email me venied@rpi.edu for pics of the engine. It is still sealed up, so no internal pics are available at this time.

Price is negotiable, so make a reasonable offer.

Is this motor still available?

Thanks
