Yamaha XSR900 2021

The Yamaha XSR900 is a classic optical illusion - with its round headlight, angular tank and attached tail light, it clearly passes for a retro bike. But it's no coincidence that the performance is reminiscent of the potent mid-range naked bike Yamaha MT-09, which is the extremely sporty basis for the XSR900. So the engine is a blast and the brakes are appropriately venomous. Fortunately, the engineers didn't overdo it with the chassis, the XSR900 offers sufficient comfort and the upright riding position is more comfortable than the powerful engine would lead one to expect. All in all, the XSR900 is one of the sportiest models among the retro bikes.

The retro flair that works on the "small" Scrambler 800 models is perfected on the Scrambler 1100 Sport Pro: A powerful, high-torque "old school" engine that fits the concept wonderfully, paired with a great Brembo brake system and high-quality Öhlins suspension components. This makes the Scrambler 1100 Sport Pro extremely comfortable on the one hand, but also very sporty and superior to any cafe racer in tight cornering. The look is also right, the 1100 models were designed with much more attention to detail than the 800s. As expected, the price is therefore much higher.
