Yamaha F6 2026: The Newest 6HP in Yamaha’s Featherweight Class
The 2026 Yamaha F6 is the latest factory release of Yamaha’s most powerful lightweight portable: 6HP at 5,500 rpm from the 139cc single-cylinder OHV four stroke, at a dry weight of just 59 lbs (15″ shaft; 20″ available). Its labyrinth exhaust and long span mounting system keep power delivery smooth and quiet, while the tiller offers Forward-Neutral-Reverse shifting, 180° steering, and a balanced twist-grip throttle. Built-in fuel tank plus an external tank connection give it genuine all-day range, and the decompression-assisted recoil starter with start-in-gear prevention makes it easy and safe to fire up. If you want the newest, strongest engine before Yamaha’s bigger F8 platform, this is the one in the small horsepower class.
