Conquer Road

Based on the popular FZ-09, the XSR900 is a beautiful blend of 3-cylinder performance and eye catching "authentic sports" styling. The XSR includes all of the FZ-09's key features plus traction control and ABS equipped brakes. A natural riding position offers solid riding comfort while the slipper clutch with assist highlights the more serious sports side of the XSR. Tasty, timeless styling combined with plenty of Yamaha's latest technologies, the XSR is guaranteed to provide a fun, exciting ride.

 
Power
 
Liquid-cooled, 847 cc inline 3-cylinder fuel-injected engine with a downdraft intake. The engine has been tuned to provide plenty of low to mid-range torque with strong yet linear throttle response.
 

Styling
