Graves Yamaha R6 — JD Beach #1
JD Beach's championship-winning Graves Motorsports Yamaha R6 Supersport race bike — the actual #1 plate machine with full Yamalube/bLU cRU livery, Öhlins gold forks, and professional race preparation throughout.
Overview
This is not just a Graves Yamaha R6 — it is JD Beach’s championship-winning Supersport race bike, carrying the coveted #1 plate. Built by Graves Motorsports, this R6 represents the pinnacle of professional 600cc road racing preparation in the MotoAmerica Supersport class.
Race Specification
The bike features full Graves Motorsports race preparation: Öhlins gold front forks, a fully adjustable rear shock, DID gold chain, Dunlop race slicks, and high-end radial-mount brake calipers with drilled floating rotors. The cockpit is pure race — clip-on handlebars, an analog tachometer, a steering damper, and stripped-down controls. A carbon fiber tail section and seat pan keep weight to a minimum.
Livery
In full team livery, the bike wears a deep navy and black Yamalube scheme with sponsor decals from Y.E.S., bLU cRU, Dunlop, DID, NGK, and Vortex. A set of white replacement bodywork is also on hand for track day use, keeping the original championship livery preserved.
