Yamaha R9 On Track... Almost | XSR 900 GP Track Tested

With Yamaha announcing the new R9 coming next year I thought a track test of the XSR 900 GP was in order.. As the XSR shares the same engine, swinging arm, suspension it will give a good indication of what the new R9 could be like on circuit...

I love the vintage racebike look of the fairings

[KelvinChilvers]

Good video Chopsy, looks like you had fun. Never ridden on a track, it’s on my bucket list however when you look into it it’s quite expensive. Keep up the good work

[cecilwilson]

Personally I think it was one off the best released motorcycles off the last year, , it's got everything, , great video, , ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️ from northern Ireland

After all that caution on track, Chopsy promptly binned it on the way home 🤣

[ragerider]

Nice vid Chops. The XSR900GP is a stunning looking bike & is a decent enough track tool as well supposedly. Although, wouldn't know myself but regardless, it's too nice to potentially bin on a track day imo. However, either way, I think the R9 will be quite a bit sharper, as it should be. Very much looking forward to your review of it as well.

Great to meet you, Bike looked fab, shame weather was a bit naff, but you still looked good out on Track 👍👍🏍🏍📸📸 Thanks for the 2 second part in your video 👍👍I look forward to the Road Test on a better day hopefully all the Best 👍

[alanshearing]

Great on board footage ❤. Nice to see what this bike offers on track . Great video Chops . 👍

[jthemightyRS]

That little snippet from Snetterton at the end is killer. Funny now, as we know everything was ok with you and Kawasaki. That section of the track is a teeth gritter for sure.

Great to meet you and your nephew mate. Weather held out for a few hot sessions in the end. Hope you both had a good day. All the best, Mr. RR.

“Just had lunch as you can hear”… nearly missed your lunch sound but finally heard it at @12:44 😂

[davetalton]

It’s going to be a long winter again, I’m thinking I might try and get into the final trackday at Oulton next week. Great on board footage Chopsy!

[tymobyrne]

It will be cool seeing them running side by side.

Just posted my review of the XSR900GP after a two week loan from Yamaha… didn’t quite have the budget for a track day on it but I loved it, the perfect road bike

[wattie]

Nice one chopsy, the GP is defo growing on me love the Marlboro colour scheme, and sound s great, good smooth biking not worth the risk of stacking it mate .👍👍

[Roxak]

What a lovely bike, bummer that i got to pick up the missus at work every now and then. Bike sure looks way better with that pillion cover.

[npdf]

I love these looks awesome.. great thrash on track Chops :) Pete

[HippoDrones]

Looks like you had some fun, I can't wait to get mine to Brands 🙂 And can't wait to see your follow up review of the XSR900 GP

[tokyoyung]

If only we got these in the US. One could dream

[oldman]
