Yamaha XSR700 2016
The XSR is the perfect everyday bike for me. It is visually a feast for the eyes, has an incredible amount of power, but is still light and agile. The seating position allows longer rides, as the luggage can be carried on the back without any problems. The XSR itself doesn't know exactly what it wants to be now. But I find the resulting mix quite exciting. So if you don't want to (or can't) have different bikes in the garage, the XSR is a very good choice. served very well. It has everything you expect from a motorbike. In a hotel, one would speak of an all-inclusive offer. It is perfect for It is perfect for the daily ride to the office, for weekend excursions and smaller tours to the south. Even with a pillion, the bike is very easy to move. As usual from Yamaha, the bike makes a very solid impression. Everything simply works here. The exhaust is pleasantly quiet, but from 5000 rpm it produces a very appealing and throaty sound. The rear end is a matter of taste. Personally, I would rebuild the rear and remove the plastic elements. I also find the standard mirrors a little large. The retro look was not quite carried through here. However, this can be changed very quickly and easily thanks to the many accessories. The instrument panel is basically easy to read. However, a lot of information is space. Here, design and functionality clash a little. Summarised in one sentence: The perfect bike for every challenge.
