YAMAHA R6 (2010)

We are very pleased to be able to offer an additional service to our customers, the option to hire a bike for their course. And not just any bike, no less than the 2010 Yamaha R6, one of the best cornering motorcycles on the planet.

What makes it so good? The ergonomics are spot on - as soon as you get moving you become part of the bike, the suspension is firm and gives a planted feel, the steering is crisp and accurate, the engine is strong and loves to be revved, the throttle response is clean and confidence inspiring and the brakes are powerful with plenty of feel. In addition the sticky Dunlop's latest sticky tyres give plenty of feedback and it comes with all the fuel you need for the day!

The cost is £249 per day (including tyres and fuel) plus a £750 returnable damage deposit. You can arrive in comfort, ride a stunning track tool for the day, then jump in the car and cruise home with a big smile on your face!
