Yamaha XSR900 GP — Racing Roots, Modern Roar
This isn't just a nod to Yamaha's past—it’s a full-on salute. The XSR900 GP looks like it just rolled off the podium of a golden-year Grand Prix, but it packs the punch of today’s tech. Sporty fairings, a tuned clip-on riding position, and the growl of the CP3 engine make this a throwback with a thrill.
Who it's for:
Riders who live for nostalgia but want modern edge—track-day cutters, twisty‑road crushers, and style-conscious commuters who love heritage looks without compromising performance.
Key Highlights
-
Golden‑era GP styling: YZR500-inspired fairing, seat hump, and bold red/white livery scream retro but mean business.
-
Powerful CP3 triple: A torquey 890 cc engine putting out ~117 bhp (~119 PS) and around 93 Nm (~68 lb‑ft) of torque.
-
Sport-tuned chassis: Fully adjustable KYB suspension, upgraded brakes with radial Brembo master cylinder, and a stiffer frame deliver precision and poise.
-
Next-gen electronics: R1-derived 6-axis IMU powers rider aids like cornering ABS, wheelie control, traction sliding control, quick-shifter, cruise control, and four ride modes (Sport, Street, Rain, plus 2 customizable).
-
Rider ergonomics: Mounted clip-ons above the yoke give you a grounded sport crouch—agile, accurate, and still road‐friendly.
-
Lightweight responsiveness: Spin-forged wheels wrapped in Bridgestone Hypersport S23 tires keep unsprung weight low and grip high.
