Aftermarket Suspension

Anyone replace their suspension? I love the power band, and don’t have experience in various suspensions/bikes, but I feel it could be a little more… confidence-inspiring?

After tuned what gas octane do you use?

Yea I just ordered the ftecu kit and two wheels dyno works tune map and found out they used octane 91-93.

(Kelpi flanker/standard baffle and dyna air filter + lid)

Have you guys used normal 87 on a tuned xsr700?

I’m on the fence whether I should even tune it lol, I really just use it as a work horse hehe.

Err in display

Hi fellow riders! As the title says today, after around 8 days off I got back and tried to turn the little one on, only to find that when trying to, I heard a nasty sound (like an electric buzz) and the word "err" in the display.

I've checked the manual but couldn't find anything, and a sort of battery charge check I have in the bike was in red so I assumed that the battery might be down, so I put the battery to charge.

Anyways besides that, does anyone know what could be the reasons for the "err" showing?

Please let me know if I missed some data to explain the issues.

Thanks!!!

Rpm on highways

I live in the states and recently got a 2020 700. I was riding on the highway at 85mph and the rpms were reading 5700-6000. Is it ok to hold that for a tank worth of fuel. I do ride down to Florida from Atlanta and am wondering if i should switch the sprockets or say screw it and hold it at 6k

Long Crank issue

I hopped on the bike, started just fine, rode it about 5 minutes down the street to pick up a prescription. Left shop turn key and go to start and it just kept cranking. Turn off then on key then it fired up. It is a 2020 model with 7400 miles

Lean angle?

What is the max lean angle of a 2020 xsr700. I can not find it online at all. Will i be able to get knee down on it and how easy it for pegs to touch?

Buyers Guide

Looking at 2020 Xsr700 with 7k miles and full Yoshimura exhaust. Is it any good on highways like 85-90mph (135-145kph)? For long periods of time. I have to go at-least 1-1/2 hrs for any fun roads and dont want to be a sitting duck on the highway.

Ran with Super Low Oil - Now there is an Aggressive Knock/Ticking

Here's the full story

I was riding on my way to the gym. Stopped at a light on a back road tried to a wheelie and my bike didn't come off the ground at all (very underpowered). Try it again with the same results. Continued riding to the gym, Just Befor I got to the gym realized I heard a ticking sound from my bike. Once there I checked as much as I could have and I didn't see any oil in the glass window. After I was done at the gym, my buddy picked me up and we got some oil topped it up. we used about 1.5 l of oil. There was a slight knocking when the bike just started. Once it got warm it went away and only came back softly above 4000 RPM. Spoke to another buddy of mine and he said it'll be safe to ride home once you don't go above 3,500. So I rode it home, and I've been trying to figure what's wrong so far. I haven't really been making that much progress. Most ticking sounds on forums I have found refer to very common "yamatic" but I know this is something different.

Addition Info:

Low oil pressure light never came on while any of this happened. I also did not find a pool of oil under my bike where I normally park it both at home and at work. Did not find oil in my exhaust. May need to replace oil pan gasket.

I haven't drained the new oil to check for any debris. I need to get some tools before I can do that.

TLDR:

  • very underpowered when accelerating quickly
  • started to hear a ticking sound
  • found there was no oil
  • topped up 1.4 l of oil
  • tick went away once the engine was warm and under 4000 RPM
  • rode home slowly
  • tick seems to be coming from the upper part of the motor.
  • haven't drained the new oil yet

How is XSR for beginner?

I have ridden XSR125 for 4 years and now want to upgrade. I would like something in A2 category (45HP) but XSR700 seems like a logical upgrade even tho it's much more powerful. So how is it? I am almost 35, 2 kids. No need to chase speed. I just want to commute to work and sometimes do weekend tours on great looking motorcycle. How much throttle controll is required? Will I do accidental wheelie if I mess up a little? Can it be ridden responsibly or need for speed turns on with the engine?

Tyres suggestions 2024

Hi everyone!

I'm close to the fateful moment of tyres change... I'd like to have some suggestions and also feedback on the tyres you're using.

I'm currently using the Michelin Road 5's for the last 15000km, I'm extremely happy for the longevity (of course) and also for the handling, however, I have little experience to judge the performances.

I ride about 40% on city and highway and 60% on twisty mountain roads. I could go for the Road 6's or try something else, what do you suggest to me?

Mt07 dash

Has anyone tried putting the dash/cluster from the mt07 on the xsr700? The input looks very similar if not identical. I just hate the single tiny round dash from the xsr

What fuel do you use?

Hello guys, I have 2016 xsr for a year now, I leave in Portugal so we normally have 95 and 98 oct gasoline, I've readed that the 98 oct will only do diference if the motor compress ratio goes 11.5:1 or above. The xrs have 11.5:1 ratio. I just want to know if it does any diference at all, or it is just not worth to pay that extra for the 98. Thank you and nice jouneys to you all.

Side stand length

Hey all Can someone please measure the length of a stock side stand? From the pivot point to the end of the stand. My bike leans (I think) too much while on a stand. I have a feeling that the previous owner swapped it for some shorter aftermarket option.

Tips for buying a used XSR700

Hello! I’m not sure if this is the right place to be posting this question (guess I’ll find out). I’m a newbie. As the title suggests, I’m looking to buy a second hand XSR. I have found a 2016 model with 11,000 miles on it. It seems to tick all the boxes for me, including a full Arrow exhaust system, which I’ve heard in person and sounds awesome. However, the description mentions that it has been remapped - what does this mean and is it cause for concern in terms of the longevity of the bike?

Any other advice for what I should be looking for when buying this bike used is greatly appreciated :)

Thanks!
