Ecu flash for yamaha xsr 9004/11/2024 ![]() I was quicker on the versys then I was on the tracer. Prior to the Tracer I put 8 thousand miles on a versys 650. so it as a brilliant engine that can overtake most other road users when in top gear and it makes that brilliant triple sound. My choice between 700/900 was made even easier by the fact I had just put 4 thousand miles on a 2017 MT 09tracer. The tank cut outs on 900 do not suit riders over 6' tall with long legs the 700 is much better in this respect. Can't wait to join the ranks of XSR owners soon! Thanks! If there are forum members that have ridden both or can give guidance on the decision I'd welcome any thoughts. For instance the article on cycleworld "yamaha xsr900 is great but it isn't the bike you want" It looks like the 900 has better suspensions, traction control, and other niceties, but some reviews have indicated that the bike almost has too much power and wants to go fast. However, I'm not looking for speed, but more for a commuter (20 miles each way) and around town bike with maybe day trips occasionally on the weekends. So my question to forum members is, if you could get the XSR700 or XSR900 for roughly the same price, which would you get? At first, this sounds like it should be obvious. ![]() Even if it is discounted, it's not likely to be too much below the 900. ![]() There are multiple dealerships with XSR900s around $8000 while the US MSRP on the XSR700 is around $8500. In the process, I've found that some of the new XSR900s around here have been heavily discounted. However, I've been visiting a few dealerships nearby asking when they expect them to get in, how much they'll be, setc. When I heard that the XSR700 was coming stateside, I was pretty excited as I've followed it and read reviews since it was released in Europe and it looks and sounds like exactly what I want to replace my "starter" bike (2000 Vulcan 500).
