Yamaha XSR700 2016

If you want an entry-level motorbike that will keep you happy for a long time, but at the same time has a cool retro look, there's really no getting around the Yamaha XSR 700. With the MT-07 as the technical basis, you're buying what is probably the most popular beginner's motorbike at the moment - just in a different guise. The XSR 700's greatest triumph is its unbelievably elastic in-line two-cylinder, which neither overtaxes beginners nor bores experienced motorcyclists. The throttle response is pleasantly direct and the power develops very harmoniously, there will never be an 'oops' moment here. However, the XSR 700 should be seen as a relaxed cruiser rather than a sporty motorbike. The chassis sways very easily when ridden fast and brings uncertainty into the vehicle. Experienced riders will find it easy to cope with, but a beginner may be overwhelmed.

Elastic motor
