With the XSR900 GP, make that 26 motorcycles for Yamaha in the USA. But it’s almost criminal when you realize that the XSR900 GP has been on sale in Europe for more than two years and it’s taken until now for Yamaha to get it Stateside. That’s because the bike was inspired by Yamaha’s GP models ridden by American legends like Kenny Roberts, Eddie Lawson, and Wayne Rainey. What the GP gets over the regular XSR900 in this case is separate high- and low-speed compression adjustment on both ends. Even for a guy like me, who’s not the biggest sportsbike fan out there, I probably wouldn’t think twice before getting my hands on the XSR900 GP.
