Hi,

Does anyone have a weight estimate on yamaha yzf r6 engine, complete with fuel and cooling system and fuel tank? Our team urgently needs engine weight estimates for chassis analysis.

Thanks...

There is another thread very close by dealing with this very matter. Given that the exact R6 weight isn't posted yet, the CBR600 weight is a good estimate - they are both the same kind of engine, and the 1-2kgs difference isn't going to affect your chassis analysis any great deal.

Cheers
