Our take on this /// Verdict

The Yamaha XJ6 Diversion F is a versatile and practical motorcycle that excels in its role as a daily commuter and long-distance tourer. While it may not be the most thrilling ride, especially for those seeking high-performance, it compensates with its reliability, comfort, and ease of handling. The bikes linear power delivery, thanks to its reworked engine from the FZ6 Fazer series, provides a smooth and relaxed riding experience. The upright riding position, well-padded seat, and adjustable handlebars make it very comfortable for both solo and two-up riding. However, the gearbox and clutch action can be a bit clunky, and the bikes lack of excitement might deter some enthusiasts. Overall, it is a solid choice for those prioritizing comfort and practicality over raw performance.

Price

As of my latest update, the Yamaha XJ6 Diversion F is not currently available in the Indian market as a new model, given its production run was from 2009 to 2016. However, if you are considering purchasing a used model, prices can vary widely depending on the condition, mileage, and year of the bike. Typically, you might expect to pay between 3.5 lakh to 5.5 lakh for a well-maintained used XJ6 Diversion F. This price range reflects the bikes durability and the value it retains over time. When calculating the on-road price, you would need to add costs such as registration, insurance, and any necessary maintenance or upgrades, which could add another 50,000 to 1 lakh to the overall cost.

Latest Updates

Friday, 15 September 2023 04:26 AM Yamaha is expected to launch the Diversion F in India soon, with the exact launch date yet to be announced. Market speculation suggests that the bike will be well-received due to its blend of performance, features, and practicality. I think the anticipation for this bike is high, and it could be a game-changer in the 600cc segment.

Thursday, 31 August 2023 10:45 AM The 2024 Yamaha Diversion F is expected to be priced around Rs 6 lakh in India, making it an attractive option for commuters and city riders. The bike features a 600cc liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, DOHC, forward-inclined parallel 4-cylinder engine. I think this pricing is competitive and could make the Diversion F a popular choice.

Thursday, 31 August 2023 05:43 PM Yamaha has highlighted the Diversion Fs new style, which includes a low seat height for easy low-speed maneuverability, a single large aggressive headlight, and a tail-light with a number plate holder. This design is aimed at enhancing both aesthetics and practicality. I believe these changes will appeal to a broader range of riders.

Thursday, 31 August 2023 04:09 AM The bike features advanced braking with hydraulic dual disc brakes at the front and a hydraulic single disc brake at the rear, both equipped with ABS. This ensures strong and reliable braking performance, which is crucial for safety. I think the inclusion of ABS is a significant safety feature.

Thursday, 31 August 2023 06:21 AM Yamaha has emphasized the Diversion Fs feature-rich instrument console, which includes a digital speedometer, analog tachometer, digital trip meters, and a digital fuel gauge.

Thursday, 31 August 2023 10:41 AM The bikes suspension includes telescopic forks at the front and a linked monoshock with spring preload adjustment at the rear. This setup is designed to provide a comfortable ride over various road conditions. I believe this suspension will handle Indian roads well.

The bikes overall dimensions and weight distribution are designed for stability and ease of handling. I believe this balance will make it a favorite among riders.

Mileage

Tuesday, 19 November 2024 08:17 AM The Yamaha XJ6 Diversion F offers respectable mileage for a 600cc motorcycle. In urban conditions, you can expect around 25-30 kml, while on the highways, this can improve to about 35-40 kml. These figures make it a reasonable choice for daily commuting and occasional long trips, considering its balance of power and fuel efficiency. However, actual mileage can vary based on riding style, road conditions, and maintenance of the bike.
