Yamaha XSR900?
Discussion
Based on looking at some pics, the headlight is good, the seat hump not. Could do with the 80s curved spoke, but otherwise looks great.
Based on riding the previous XSR900, it'll be great for playing silly buggers around A roads. More power than I care for, but bouncy, fun handling.
If I didn't prefer my bikes with one fewer cylinders I'd be all over it.

I owned a first gen XSR and if it’s like that the engine is an absolute peach, sounds great and goes very well.
The general feel and handling of the previous MT09/XSR was quite wayward under duress, as it was quite a nose up stance with boingy forks and rear shock. I understand the new MT09 is a lot better in this regard so suspect the XSR is too.

I have have one in black, had it a few weeks.
I really like the look of it and you get used to the seat hump.
I don’t have much to compare it to as it’s my first bike, but am enjoying it.
The induction souls a good.
The quick shifter is great, brakes good and build quality seems all ok.
Prob not much help!
