Visually, the Yamaha XV950R does everything right - it stands out from the wide variety of cruisers with its sporty touch. In riding, however, it does not stand out significantly from the competition. The XV950R also has the usual problem with low lean angle clearance, which is not helped by the firmer tuning of the chassis.

Minimalist look with sporty accents

cultivated engine

taut and stable chassis

stable brakes

good workmanship

low centre of gravity and low seat height advantageous for smaller riders.

Engine has too little "momentum"

low lean angle clearance

restrained sound.
