Yamaha has taken the wraps off a limited-edition gem for motorcycle enthusiasts – the XSR900 GP. This modern retro motorcycle pays homage to Yamaha’s illustrious racing history and iconic models from the past.
The XSR900 GP stands out with its custom race paint job, meticulously crafted by Yamaha’s various teams. Here’s a glimpse of the inspiration behind each design:
Only 11 units of the XSR900 GP will be available in the European market. While they come with a premium price tag, their historical significance and exclusivity make them irresistible to collectors and enthusiasts alike.
Whether you’re a racing aficionado or simply appreciate timeless design, the XSR900 GP is a blend of 80s nostalgia and modern technology. Yamaha has truly turned the nostalgia dial up to 11 with this special edition.
XSR900 GP is powered by a 890 cc 4-stroke, liquid-cooled engine that produces 119 PS @ 10,000 rpm and 93 Nm @ 7,000 rpm. The engine is mated to a 6-speed gearbox.
It also gets a 5-inch full colour TFT display, adjustable KYB suspension, new clip-on handlebars, delta-box chassis, Yamaha ride control with 6-axis IMU, cruise control, quick shifter with slip and assist clutch, Yamaha Spin-forged wheels with Bridgestone Battlax Hypersport tyres, and many more features.
Sadly, this historical masterpiece won’t be coming to India given the limited numbers and exclusivity to the European market. Nonetheless it is a good-looking motorcycle that most enthusiasts will appreciate.
