Evening all, Haven't posted for a while but picked up a new 2023 XSR900 today. Any other XSR900 owners here with any tips or advice? 

 

I m looking for a tail tidy in particular. 

 

Did 80 miles today towards the 600 mile break in service. 

 

It is similar to my MT09 but more composed at speed, particularly on the motorway. Suspension seems a little better and the addition of cruise control is nice to have. I think it looks better than the MT09.

Nice and best colour combo. Yea a few French cafe touches make it look a bit more European ie less manga.


I would get a different seat or get it re upholstered first to make it abit more comfortable before any tail tidy if it was me.

 

i think they played with the gearing abit (longer) to make it for fitting for the use case and the valving for the suspension.

Personally id still the look at suspension and see if its correct for you, rarely they are the settings perfect out of the crate, especially after the breaking in period.
