Finally, you are the first, in the whole of the motoring b(v)logging universe, to show and explain the seat on this bike. Well done Tony and I hope you get the recognition you deserve!
-
I love this bike. Will be getting one soon.
-
Great review, cheers.
-
Beautiful looking bike, and likewise if I had the money it would be part of my collection. The quick responsive gear change is great to listen to. As always a great review
-
I have had this bike for nearly a year now and love it. I tried the Z900RS and Speed twin, but this one just grabs you when you push it. Its so addictive. I dont mind the seat and had no real comfort issues. I do have the rear cowl on the way though.
-
Great review bud. Just subscribed.

Full circle. I discovered your channel researching Street Twins and kept watching for accessory installations after I bought one. Now that the customizations are done and I’ve outgrown it I’m looking at one of these and here we are again watching Man Cave Moto.
-
What an excellent review. I'm going to get one.
-
The foldable pillion foot pegs are a game changer!!
-
Cracking review, mate! Any info about the seat cowl would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.

XSR900 2016 model owner here. I love my bike, because it is light and the engine is a rocket. I do 65 mpg and I had not problems in three years. The new iteration has better engine, it has to be incredible. I do like the bulky seat of the new one, is a homage to the classic one. Anyway, great value for the money.
-
well done for the short and sharp review.
-
I rode one at the weekend. I really enjoyed it but I do wish Yamaha did self cancelling indicators
-
Great review! I can’t remember where I first saw this bike but was initially underwhelmed by looks but it’s really grown on me and I really like it. I’ve sat on one in the dealer and it seems like a good option,but it was ‘Raven’ so still keen to see the blue in the flesh.

I have a couple of Tracers, that triple is fantastic 😊great review
-
Great review.. the body kit for these looks nice to 😊
-
I like the look of the bike, especially with the seat cover. Might have to get a test ride.
-
I recently got this bike and it is quite amazing. Super fun to ride, looks great and I get lots of compliments. If your local dealer has one and you've been thinking about it, get it!
-
Dream bike. 2nd Gen XSR9 is the perfect road bike imo
-
Excellent review! What sticks out to me as a super-negative is the uncomfortable seat. It is a pet-peeve that manufacturers skimp on something so very important. I really don't want to spend an additional 4 to 500 dollars to get a better one when it should have come with a good one in the first place. For me, Corbin is not an option having bought one and found it didn't fit my bike and they don't take returns.
