2024 Yamaha XSR900

With timeless design inspired by Yamahas legendary racing heritage and the sheer power of its renowned CP3 powerplant, the XSR900 is the rebirth of a legend.

Features may include:

• Retro Influence, Modern Style

The striking look of the next generation Yamaha XSR900 is apparent from every angle. With the tank design, exposed aluminum frame and side silhouette drawing clear inspiration from iconic Yamaha race bikes of the past, there is also an unmistakably modern design element underscoring the machines high-performance capabilities. Full LED lighting, a full-color 3.5-inch TFT display and a host of premium touches including drilled fork caps, machined headlight stays, forged brake pedal, hidden passenger pegs, blacked-out levers, darkened brake reservoirs, bar-end mirrors, embossed aluminum rear underplate and aluminum XSR logo all combine to reflect modernity and a high level of fit and finish.

• Powerful 890cc Crossplane Crankshaft Triple

The 890cc liquid-cooled three-cylinder, DOHC fuel-injected (YCC-T) engine features bore stroke of 78 mm 62.1 mm and an 11.5:1 compression ratio for outstanding torque and thrilling power delivery. Adding to the fun, lightweight internals lend a responsive, free-revving engine character.

• Fracture-Split Connecting Rods

The forged connecting rods are made using the fracture-split methodwhere the big-end ring of the connecting rod is purposefully fractured and then reassembledto ensure an unparalleled degree of manufacturing accuracy. This creates a pair of perfectly matching halves that produce a much more precise mating surface when the rods are bolted together again around the crankshaft.

• Sophisticated Six-Axis IMU with Rider Aids

State-of-the-art six-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) features two sensors that measure three-axis angular velocity and three-axis acceleration. Data is transmitted to the ECU which controls an expansive suite of rider aids, including a lean sensitive Traction Control System, Slide Control System (SCS), front Wheel Lift Control System (LIF) and Brake Control (BC) System with lean sensitive ABS. Each can be adjusted for different levels of intervention or turned off completely depending on rider preference.

• Lightweight Aluminum Frame & Swingarm

The compact, lightweight aluminum frame is manufactured using Yamahas Controlled Fill (CF) die-cast technology, making it possible to produce complex frame structures lighter and stronger than conventional casting methods. The box-section aluminum swingarm extends the wheelbase to augment straight-line stability.

• Rider-Focused Ergonomics

Ergonomics of the XSR900 situate the rider more within the bike for a greater sense of control and confidence. Lowered head pipe position, unique subframe, lower seat height and the lengthened swingarm improve straight-line performance while maintaining the XSR900s trademark sharp handling.

• Unique XSR900 Detailing

Every aspect of the XSR900 shows Yamahas meticulous attention to detail reflected through a host of premium touches, including drilled fork caps, machined headlight stays, forged brake pedal, hidden passenger pegs, blacked-out levers, darkened brake reservoirs, bar-end mirrors, embossed aluminum rear underplate and aluminum XSR logo. An additional nod to the XSR900s sporting heritage, the colorway is a modern take on the classic French Sonauto Yamaha race colorsthe stunning blue, cyan and yellow combination famously campaigned by legendary French Grand Prix champion Christian Sarron, an important page from Yamahas rich racing history.
