R6 2008-2016 GRAPHIC KIT

The R6 2008-2016 graphic kit is designed specifically for the Yamaha YZF-R6 generation produced from 2008 to 2016. Made in France from premium UV and solvent-resistant vinyl, each kit ships pre-cut with installation instructions – precision-matched to the original fairing profile of this generation.

The Yamaha YZF-R6 2008-2016: a dedicated graphic kit

Nine years of the same bodywork

The Yamaha YZF-R6 from 2008 to 2016 shares identical fairing geometry across all model years. This means a single R6 graphic kit design from this category fits every R6 produced during this period. The 2017 generation received a complete bodywork redesign, making motorcycle graphic kits non-interchangeable between the two generations. Ordering for the wrong generation will result in fitment issues – check your model year before adding to cart.

The 2008 update and the YCC-I system

The 2008 model year introduced the YCC-I variable intake system and revised fuel injection, setting the mechanical and visual profile of the generation that would run through 2016. The fairing shape defined in 2008 is the reference for all pre-cut adhesive vinyl kits in this category – making the fit precise across all nine model years.

What’s included in the R6 2008-2016 graphic kit?

Each kit contains 7 types of precision pre-cut adhesive vinyl pieces: 2 lateral side panels, 2 lower fairings (belly pans), 3 front fenders, 2 tank sides, 2 tank tops, 2 tail side panels and 1 tail top. The kit is delivered rolled with full installation instructions. The vinyl is heat-formable for the curved sections of the R6 2008-2016 fairing profile.

The Yamaha YZF-R6 is a 599cc inline-four sport bike used on road and track alike. The r6 sport bike graphics in this category are available in the same colors and finishes for both uses. See also our R1 2015-2019 graphic kit for Yamaha sport cross-sells.

How do I install the R6 2008-2016 graphic kit?

Clean and degrease the fairings thoroughly before starting.

Full installation instructions are included with every kit. Fairing removal is not required.
