Convert Your Yamaha XSR900 Into A GP-Style Cafe Racer With Y’S Gear Latest Kit

Since the launch of the Yamaha XSR900 last year, enthusiasts have been keenly turning this capable naked into a retro-inspired GP-style cafe racer.

The Yamaha XSR900 can be transformed into a retro-inspired GP-style cafe racer using bolt-on kits.
The Y’S Gear ‘Authentic Sports Blood line exterior set’ is the latest addition to the lineup.

And now, the latest addition to the lineup is the Y’S Gear ‘Authentic Sports Blood line exterior set’ that promises to transform your XSR900 into a classic racing machine.

The kit includes a new nose cone, fuel tank cover, sub-frame covers, rear seat cowl, and front mudguard – all bolt-on components that can be installed in just two to three hours, according to the Y’S Gear website. The colors and decals used on the kit take inspiration from the Yamaha YZR500 Grand Prix racing machines of the 1970s, with the retro tuning fork logo and font used on the brands historic machines being perfectly replicated.

The Y’S Gear ‘Authentic Sports Blood line exterior set’ is already available for pre-order on the official website and is expected to be released in June 2023.

Priced at JPY220,000 Yen (approximately RM7.3k), the kit is a significant investment, but it promises to take your XSR900 to the next level.

There is currently no information about a European release or worldwide shipping, but enthusiasts worldwide are eagerly waiting for this kit to become available to give their XSR900 a classic racing makeover. If you’re interested in the kit, head over to the official website for more information about pricing and delivery.

Yamaha To Add A Fully-Faired XSR 900 To Its Lineup

Yamaha could introduce its own retro-style fully faired motorcycle to its lineup to compete with Honda’s Hawk 11 and Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RR.

Yamaha is developing a fully-faired retro-style motorcycle.
To feature the firm’s newest 890cc CP3 engine.

Japanese publication Young Machine claimed that Yamaha is working on a new motorcycle called the XSR GP.

If you’re an avid reader, you know that we are a fan of Young Machine because they have insider information about what’s happening behind the scenes at the Japanese Big Four factory.

In its latest issue, Young Machine reveals a rendered image of what the upcoming XSR GP could look like.

At a glance, the XSR GP resembles the Honda Hawk 11 and MV Agusta Superveloce 800, but Yamaha could also intend to take the fight to Triumph’s Speed Triple 1200 RR.

Like the XSR 900, the fully-faired GP will likely feature the same 890cc CP3 (inline-three) engine that produces around 117.3hp and 93Nm.

In addition, the XSR GP could also be a strong indicator that a fully-faired race-type YZF-R9 is in the works, as Yamaha previously patented the XSR GP and R9 nameplate earlier this year.

While we are excited about the upcoming motorcycle, sadly, it is unlikely the bike will ever make its way to Malaysia anytime soon; this is because none of the XSR range (including the XSR 155 and XSR 900) is available here.
