Check fuel petcock filter and any inline fuel filters. Possible dirt or water was taken in .

SOURCE: 2000 Yamaha R6 leaking gas - coming out of winter

this is a carb model yes? if you stored bike with fuel tap on then it could be your carb floats stuck. there is nowhere on the engine itself that gas would be going. is it dripping from the tank? fuel petcock? fuel pump (probably under the tank) ethanol in gas can completely screw up pumps.

if it's a carb problem shut off gas, remove aircleaner let fuel in carbs evaporate for a week. get some Berrymans B12 spray carb cleaner and get a bunch of it in there, it will break down the gum/varnish from the gas. also get Berrymans B12 fuel additive and put some in the tank. re-assemble and see how it goes.

SOURCE: My 2001 yamaha R6 motorcycle dies as soon as i let

I wonder if maybe the kickstand switch is bad letting the bike think the kickstand is down. When you let out the clutch it shuts of the engine as if the kickstand is actually down.

2000 Cadillac ran out of gas I put gas in it and battery died I got a jump and it still won't start

if you ran out of gas this will not cause a battery to go dead. you may have a charging problem causing the car to run only off of the battery voltage until the battery was too low to run the ignition system and died.

Low idle when warm and wont start back up

I had this same issue for my 2016 R6. When to the mechanic. He removed the tank, the upper throttle body and showed me the rpm sensor. There is a small screw at the bottom of the sensor. He adjusted that two three times and Idle was back to 1500 Rpm.

Motorcycle sputters and has trouble starting

My guess would be you had water in the fuel. going up the hill put the water in the floatbowls right in the pickups for the carbs and going down pulled the water away.

I HAVE A 2001 R6 IT HAS A SMALL KNOCKING AT IDLE AND IT GORS AWAY WHEN YOU GIVE IT GAS AND AS YOU LET OFF IT COMES BACK BUT ITS NOT ALL THE TIME IT COMES AND GOES EVERY FEW 40 SEC AT LOW AT IDLE AND WHEN...

Increase the eidle speed then trade it in on a newer bike. It sounds like a rod bearing is going bad. Or you can keep it and pay the $1500 needed for the repair work.
