2023 Yamaha XSR700

Modern classic styling and crossplane concept twin for fun performance, all built to be uniquely customized.

Features may include:

• Standout Style

The XSR700 blends Yamaha’s world-class engineering with timeless style, creating a new type of machine for riders looking for an authentic and honest motorcycle that doesn’t sacrifice performance. Drawing influence from Yamaha’s classic "XS" series of motorcycles, the XSR oozes class with its exposed aluminum details, retro-influenced bodywork, stepped seat and custom lighting and instrumentation.

• Modern LED Headlight, Classic Style

Heritage-inspired round LED headlight provides modern lighting performance with classic style, while integrated headlight stays connect into the fork shrouds for a compact front expression and a sleek 'snub-nose' look.

• Advanced Crossplane Crankshaft Concept Engine

The compact two-cylinder engine provides a unique power character with its outstanding torque and throttle response, complemented with strong high-rpm pulling power. It also features Yamaha's "Crossplane Concept" 270-degree crank that provides linear torque development in response to the rider’s throttle input.

• Advanced Twin Cylinder Engine

The XSR700 features a compact 689cc liquid-cooled, inline twin-cylinder, DOHC engine with fuel injection. This engine provides a unique power character with its outstanding low- to mid-range torque and very linear throttle response and complemented with strong high-rpm pulling power. This motor develops 50 foot-pounds of torque and is designed to maximize riding excitement in the real world.

• Crossplane Crankshaft Concept

The two-cylinder engine features Yamaha's "Crossplane Concept" 270 degree crank that provides linear torque development in response to the rider’s throttle input. The CP2 engine is also light, slim and compact and offers an excellent level of rider-to-machine communication.

• Offset Cylinder Block

The paired cylinders of the XSR engine are shifted slightly forward compared to the center of the crankshaft. This reduces drag during each combustion stroke of the pistons and improves efficiency.

• Standout Style

The XSR700 blends Yamaha’s world-class engineering with timeless style, creating a new type of machine for riders looking for an authentic and honest motorcycle that doesn’t sacrifice performance. Drawing influence from Yamaha’s classic "XS" series of motorcycles, the XSR oozes class with its exposed aluminum details, retro-influenced bodywork, stepped seat and custom lighting and instrumentation.

• Compact, Sporty Chassis

A lightweight diamond-type high tensile steel frame provides an optimized rigidity balance for light, agile handling and stability. The engine is a stressed member of the chassis which allows for a lighter, more compact main frame design.

• Advanced Instrumentation

The round LCD panel features a ton of information: digital tachometer, speedometer, gear position, eco mode indicator, ambient and coolant temperature, a fuel gauge and range of trip computer functions including a clock, instant and average fuel consumption, fuel reserve trip meter and the usual trip meters.

• Classically-styled Modern LED Lighting

A heritage-inspired round LED headlight provides both classic style and modern performance in equal measure. A round all-LED tail and brake light mounted above the rear fender and turn signals are also compact, stylish LEDs.
