It took YEARS of work to get my 2016 XSR in a place that I think it is excellent and it took reworking the clutch, tuning, dyno, replacement parts, etc. Now it looks and sounds like you get all of that excitement out of the box without tweaks. Awesome job, Yamaha

I modified my xsr heavily, but only after the first year. The new one is a completely different animal. I wouldn’t trade, but I’m interested in other owners opinions. For me it’s perfect ergos, and the rest. The new one doesn’t have that. You? Full disclosure, I’ve had 4 Yamaha triples and the mt10. Cheers

@@user-hf8ie8mf3n I came off of a a late 2000s Bonneville onto the XSR after trying the thruxton RS, CB1000, Z900, and street triple. I liked them all for different reasons, but they weren't as rowdy as the XSR. I just finished modding mine after several years, exhaust, sliders, dyno and tune, tank panels, seat, LED lights, road tires, suspension, clutch, etc. and it feels PERFECT right now. Honestly, am going to ride it until batteries catch up with bikes and go electric. I couldn't imagine riding anything else after spending so much love and time on this animal. All of that said, if I did end up with a 2022 I don't think I would be as happy. The 2016 was right place right time for me, and I'm happy for Yamaha's refinement of the ride, but would pick accidental wheelies with a less aggressive rider position any day.

Just bought mine at the end of Aug. I’ve had it about 3 weeks and absolutely love it.

Hopped on one at the dealer the other day and your comment on the seat was accurate. I was supprised at how uncomfortable it was compared to my 2018 xsr700

I had a blast just watching. Thank you

I have it after my 2021mt09 and ı have to say that this bike is more stable on hıgh speeds and twisty roads and more less wind pressure than mt09 , sitting position is good

OC I love the looks, the tech, and the mill. This is my next bike, I live in Vegas the sun is always out in the desert

cool video man, it gives a good insight into how you experience the bike. I also really thought the saddle was a minus point, so I had it adjusted, new cover, new designs and more padding on the front and the back made even wider.

OC. I can't wait to pick up a XSR900 to accompany my 19 svart401. I love the neo retro /modern cafe look.

I fell in love with the Ducati Sport Classic 1000 a while back. They're really hard to come by though. The style of this bike really scratches that itch. I could see a really cool aftermarket fairing going on this bike and looking really cool.

Some people say that yamaha looks ugly and i can't directly find this 80s vibe in this bike. Still it reminds me those supersport bikes from 90s where after some minor crashes people often transformed them into streetfighters, probably due lack of money or time to repair. I kinda like that ❤

I've heard you say that the MT09/xsr900 has more of a scalpel type of feel too it, totally agree. I've owned my 09 now for a year and it's power delivery makes it feel like a scalpel on the street. Its very precise, hard hitting, but not that thumper grunty feel you get out of some of the other naked bikes. At least compared to the other Yamaha naked bikes

Just to lend some ease of mind to the idea of buying a used Street Triple, I bought one this year as my first bike, and haven't had any issues with it at all. It's the RX model from 2015 (basically the precursor to the RS) and I put over 6,000 miles on it this year alone. Did my own 30,000 mile service, and it runs great. While I can't possibly compare it to the MT-09 or the XSR-900, I can say that a used Street Triple is a good choice given that you have the ability to pick one up.

I'd say there shouldn't be any issues with a low mileage street triple, I have a 2011 triumph daytona 675, the bike the 765 striple was derived from, it has 15,000km I've had it since July last year, my 2021 mt09 since July '21 and a 2017 SV650 since 2017, which ever bike you go with, you shouldn't have any reliability problems. I'd go with the '21 mt09 though, it's the most fun and well put together bike if you're still young or young at heart, and I'd say it's pretty comfortable too with an aftermarket seat and the suspension tuned right.

does anyone know why the speedometer is turning green? and sometimes just white? I just bought mine :)

I'm in the market for a XSR900 or an MT09. I think the MT09 better suits my length of 1.92m (6ft3 I believe) but I'm not really sure. How tall are you and do you think the XSR would be a nice fit for taller people?

Oh man!!! I have never seen a better review than yours... In a way, I bought the bike after seeing your video. Thanks mate. For heaven sake, please tell me what phone mount you have that matches the bike color?

Got to ride a 2016 today which I loved. I think the round digital display looks better than the square, but the mode selection would be nice. The reason it doesn't work in the rain is the lack of protection in the front. A small windscreen would be nice. Is it optional or did they do away with it?

Optional unless you get the cafe version .

It be nice if you could do a 30 day review of the CLX 700 Sport. I agree with about 400-900cc is all you would need for the road.

I often wonder if ppl adjust levers handle bars and suspension before saying anything negative about riding position vs the mt09 just food for thought u can do simple things to make your ride fitted to u and yes sometimes half inch is a big diff and yes that's what she said lol

From the back the seat looks amazing and looks better on the black. The blue colour is amazing but with the gold it dosnt compliment it. It's personal taste. But don't get the blue until you see the black in person. It's just cool.

What about luggage options? Your mt -10 can carry more and has a windshield option

The Thumb Wheel works way better if pushed in a more, upward direction, as this prevents the wheel from turning so easily.. 👍

I have the 2021 MT 09 modded and tuned and absolutely love it but I have been considering moving up to the 2022 MT 10. I think more of the stability with the extra weight.

Жыл бұрын

MT09SP if fantastic but an MT10 in itself is my favorite ..

Probably the main reason why you feel you can ride this bike quicker/faster than 09 is it's geometry which is much more sporty. The weight is more on front wheel, kinda like on 07 or 10 and the riding position is slightly more on wrists which i personally prefer much more than 09. When i sat on this xsr it was immediately obvious for me that it will be much funnier and more agile bike than 09. I just don't like that 90deg upright position that 09 gives.

So on an xsr900 I should be able to do 200kph around 75kph corners? I'm already doing 150-170 around said corners on a '21 mt09. Don't think it has anything to do with the handlebar position, think it's all in what you're used to. I outride bikes with double the horsepower ony 2017 sv650 in the twisties, most of the time they're sports bikes or super sports.

Hey are there any belly pans you guys can recommend for this bike. Would be nice to cover some of that exhaust.

Got one on order. Had a previous gen MT09, but got rid of it because the suspension was lacking and the chassis, while great fun, was just a bit chaotic. Looking forward to a CP3 bike with a more settled chassis, and hopefully better suspension calibrations for aggressive use.

@@2Petya I like the XSR way better. The chassis feels very stable, like my R1. The shock and fork are pretty good after dialing in close to max rebound damping, and some compression damping on the fork. The shock isn't adjustable for compression damping, but if anything, there is too much any way. Fine for going fast on smooth roads, but a bit much for easier use on rougher roads. The only real downside is the EURO 5 tuning... just like on the MT10, R1, etc. If you like to really ride hard, you will notice there is electronic bullshitery taking place that modifies power deliver, at least in the lower gears. If I had to do it again, I would go with the XSR... but again, my MT09 as the previous, not current generation.
