  • Yamaha sent Chase out to scenic California for the press launch of the 2022 Yamaha XSR 900. Not to spoil anything, but let's just say it might be time to get the paperwork in order on the ole' MT-10.

    I too have an MT10, and admit I'm not the most accomplished rider and this bike is well beyond my ability, however she feels so special even at 50 % and that wonderful CP4 engine with aftermarket cans, plus ability to have OEM panniers, my only negative is hunting for petrol at just over 100 miles. Cheers Chase.

      21 black mt10 here, started out riding around in mode 2. That started to feel limp after a couple weeks, so I keep it in mode 1 now. There is some off idle hesitation and lurch when taking off. Turned off the TCS and the lurch is gone. Just savin up for a mid pipe n can combo and a flash for full power potential! RIP my rear tire!

    I’m coming from a MT07, and naturally thought of the MT-09…ride my friends and it seemed perfect…till I rode the 2020 XSR at Bike Week…fell in love. Now, with this 22 and the upgrades, I’m in more love. The difference between the 22 XSR & MT09 are perfect for me. A little less aggressive and twitchy from what o heard and that’s fine for me. Plus, while this bike has a retro style, it’s not too retro…at least for my taste…still low key modern. The seat is the worse, but it’s not a deal breaker at all! Thanks for the review…can’t wait!!

    I'm diggin it. I sold my Fj-09 after shattering my ankle and several back surgeries. Sold last year and have rode for over 20 years. Had an 05 FZ1 and traded it for the Fj with over 97,000 miles. Now starting to have withdrawals and know I can't take my long rides like I use to but have fun roads around where I live anyway. REALLY liking the 2022 XSR-900. Just hope the seat is more comfortable than the FJ. It was like a plank. I loved the one piece and how comfy the FZ1 one. I actually wish I could find another 05 FZ1, but not any for sale especially around me.

    I never really gelled that well with the previous XSR9 (even though I liked the concept) looks until I managed to see one in the flesh and that changed my mind, so much better in person although there was a couple of things that I still wasn’t fussed about. The new version looks good to me in on videos and people seem to be raving about the updates, the only I’d do looks wise other than normal stuff (sweet exhaust and a tail tidy) is a custom seat and and remove som of the visual bulk of it while obviously making it more comfortable.

    OC: Been riding a heavily modified '03 SV 650 naked (customised GSX-R forks and brakes, custom rear shock, bunch of engine mods, more aggressive pegs, touring style clip-ons and various other mods) in western Europe for the past ten years, I wouldn't trade her for an MT-10. But I would 100% buy an MT-10 in addition, if I had the space (which I will, soon :D). If I had an MT-10, I probably wouldn't trade it for an SV either.
    Having ridden both, both bikes are amazing, just in very different ways.
    The MT-10 offers a confidence and a wildness that the SV will never have. Feels like riding a docile bear. Furious and sometimes outright scary when you want it to be, but just very reassured and steady when you just want to chill. I don't need to ride that bike at 10/10ths to get everything I want out of it and that is one of it's greatest assets. It's an experience, not a competition.
    The SV on the other hand is light and flickable and you can use most of its' potential on public roads. But I'm literally unable to ride that bike relaxed at this point. I WANT to ride it at 10/10ths all the time.

    The bike's performance sounds unquestionably excellent but MAN...last gen XSR900 looked perfect! Gonna have to take some time for current gen XSR to grow on me.

      Yeah, I'm not loving the matching fender, tank cover and the little cowl under the seat. I would have to paint the fender black and the little under seat cowl black too. The truncated trapezoidal section at the back of the seat looks weird, and the old tail light just works for the aestetic. This tail ligntlooks like a Cylon eye.
      Also, circumcising the fuze-box dealies on the sides just doesn't look quite right. I mean, a lot of people didn't get it, but I think it looks burly and cool, and it just looks wrong now that it's not there. The TFT probably is an upgrade over the LCD for most people. BUT I *like* the round LCD. Again, it works for the bike and the vibe. Truth be told though, I'd rather have a set of dual gauge pods with digital elements. // 2016 XSR owner.

    @2WheelsGood.01 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Incredibly pretty bike. Simple, continuous lines. Sleek, large uninterrupted surfaces, tasteful headlights and small interesting subordinate design features like the vents and headlight bracket. To me, that is a properly executed design. In contrast to the MT line, obviously for a much younger and squidtastic crowd, the design reflects such intentions. Extreme angles, jagged edges, angry looking features etc.

    I love Ventura! So I traded from Super Duke R 1290 to 890 Duke R and that bike still crazy at time to handle! But been having lots more fun and can actually relax more in canyon carving than on Siper Duke. I thought "trade down" was an I parade for me. Do love looked of bikes like XSR900 and Z900RS though, so even though I recently got Duke R, I could see myself swapping it for this Yammy! OC

    I prefer the MT-09 but I’m biased because I own one. I use D2 and wheelie control 2. It will float the wheel slightly in 2nd if you whack the throttle open in the right spot. Clutches up effortlessly in 2nd and 3rd. That’s coming from someone who is very new to doing that. I’d buy the XSR only because it has cruise control lol. I wonder if you can just buy that switch panel now that it will be on a mass produced bike?

    Have an 2017 Fz10 witch I love and ain't prepared to let go of, but last summer fell in love with the rétro look of the xsr900, was even considering trading it in for one more nimble and agile bike, but the old xsr900 didn't have cruise control witch was a huge bummer, when I saw the new one's look + cruise control and that gold/blue 😍 , I'm reconsidering 😬 trading it in. But that power and sound from the Fz10 is just phenomenal. Dilemma 🙈 what am I to do?

    Hi Chase.. power to what you can handle ratio is very important.
    Or power to what you can use for that matter.

  • @jedcsh1
    @jedcsh1 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I've owned a variety of bikes over the last 15 years. The xsr is by far the most exciting bike. Combining good looks, light weight and modern torque/performance is nothing but smiles. Plus it's a Yamaha, so parts/maintenance are cheap and it won't leave a puddle of oil in your garage. I've had harleys, sport bikes, and ADV bikes...nothing has come close to getting as much attention and people walking up to me to ask about the bike.
    I'll lay down the argument that the first generation is the prettier bike, but Yamaha obviously cut some corners with suspension and tech. Looking forward to trying one of the new ones myself

    OC: I dunno, I think the sounds the MT-10 makes has me forgiving all the alien bodywork, extra weight, and price tag. Love the blue and gold color scheme. I personally don't care for the retro look, but I'm glad Yamaha can package modern performance into different shapes.

    The 5cm difference in the length of the swingarm between the MT 07 and Tracer 7 makes all the difference for stability. The 07 is borderline dangerous at high speeds in crosswinds. The Tracer was totally stable. Playfulness comes at a price.

    Like the bike, but I like the xsr900 version 1 better though. Mainly the speedometer. I like the seat. I think it would be cool to have an option for a bikini fairing, and seat cowl to help with they history of why they styled it the way they did the racer style.
