The 2018 Yamaha XSR700 arrives in the company’s sporty heritage line up as a retro street motorcycle. The bike pays tribute originally to the Yamaha XS650 that is even today worshipped for its minimalistic and impressive design language.
The Yamaha XSR700 comes with some really interesting features like a two level seat and retro inspired rounded headlamp. Furthermore, the exposed aluminium components along with the basic shaped front and rear fender not only add a touch of elegance to this machine but also make it come across as a fine piece of art.
