HISTORIC YAMAHA RACING INFLUENCED DESIGN
The XSR900’s pure and purposeful design offers a unique blend of timeless sports styling combined with references to Yamaha’s legendary Deltabox-framed race bikes of the 1980s. Details like the gap between the café-style humped seat and racer-inspired fuel tank – as well as minimalist side panels and hidden rear lighting – underline its position as a true Faster Son.
HIGH QUALITY DETAILS AND PREMIUM MATERIALS
The XSR900 is fitted with high quality materials throughout. From the superb cockpit detailing, drilled fork caps and forged aluminium foot controls through to the dual colour and dual stitched seat – as well as racer-inspired details like the quick release fasteners and folding passenger pegs – the look and feel of this premium sport heritage bike inspires lasting pride of ownership.
FLEXIBLE AND RELAXED RIDING POSITION
You’ll find that the ergonomics on this outstanding sport heritage bike give you all the flexibility and versatility you need in different types of riding – sports, urban or relaxed.

SIGNATURE XSR FULL LED LIGHTING
The XSR900 features full LED lighting with a split projector and half round position lamp, styled in a round retro-effect headlamp. The hidden taillight has a smoked appearance that enhances the bike’s pure and timeless looks – while compact and bright LED flashers complete lighting package.

HIGH PERFORMANCE BRAKES AND SUSPENSION
No compromises have been made when it comes to the XSR900’s technical specification that includes a Brembo radial master cylinder and 298 mm dual front discs that gives you high levels of braking power and precise controllability. Fully adjustable USD forks and link-type rear suspension system are easy to set up to suit your needs, and Yamaha’s latest superlight Spinforged wheels minimise unsprung weight for responsive handling performance.
SOPHISTICATED ELECTRONIC RIDER CONTROLS
At the heart of the XSR900’s advanced electronics is an R1-derived six-axis Inertial Measurement Unit, which controls the Lean-Sensitive Traction Control, Slide Control System (SCS) and front wheel LIFt control system (LIF) for secure riding in different conditions. Modes can be selected and controlled via the full colour TFT meter.

LIGHTWEIGHT DELTABOX-STYLE CHASSIS, LONG SWINGARM
First developed for Yamaha’s race bikes in the 1980s, Yamaha’s Deltabox frame design is recognised for its combination of strength and lightness. The XSR900 is equipped with the latest version of the Deltabox frame, and features walls of different thickness that gives "tuned rigidity" providing sporty and precise handling with a higher level of feel and feedback. A new longer swingarm gives the bike a relaxed and planted feel to suit its versatile character.
QSS, CRUISE CONTROL, A&S CLUTCH
The XSR900 comes with a high specification as standard and includes a Quick Shift System for clutchless upshifts and downshifts, as well as an Assist & Slipper (A&S) clutch for increased chassis controllability when slowing down. The Cruise Control is ideal for when you’re in a relaxed mood.
