Gonna trade my 2012 KTM 690 Duke for a 2024 XSR900! Gonna drop off my KTM at the dealer this friday and ill get a trade offer later.
Its a yamaha demo tour bike with 10.000 km. Really looking forward to finally have one and to start my 3rd season on my dream bike!
I went with the blue color as its my favorite :)
Does anyone know what the width of the stock bars are on the 2022+ XSR? From bar end to bar end.
Thanks
I noticed a power cut below 3k RPM like stuttering, followed by engine light turning on. This stuttering only occurs after riding for 5 minutes and then disappears completely after that but the engine light still turned on or if the engine is already warmed up. Is this normal? Is it tps issue?
My settings are: • D-Mode: 1 • TCS: 2
Hey guys, i’ve been a lurker for a while and now finally saved up to buy a 1st gen XSR 900. I just need some advice about buying a used bike. What do i need to look out for or check on a used bike before buying? TYIA

Finally got my bike.
Since there was no 1st gen rentals anymore I had only experienced the 2nd gen, was afraid I would be disappointed with the things everyone was complaining about, twitchy throttle, bad suspension etc. but loved the look of gen 1 enough to take the gamble. Now after having it for a few days I'm wondering if they have done some serious modifications on this one, because all those things feels better than what they did on the 2023 rental bike I tried. Feels really good at low and high speeds in both standard and B mode, haven't tried A for obvious reasons, but really happy so far as someone that just got his license.
I'm traveling currently and while I was in a new city I found I could rent an xsr900 for about $30usd a day. So... Being interested in this bike... I rented one for 3 days.
Last night I put a deposit on one in a city on my way home from here and will go check it out in person Tuesday morning.
I might just have officially joined the group!
Hey all. I currently ride an XSR700, and have the opportunity to upgrade to a used 2022 XSR900 with only 200 miles on it.
I’ve been wanting a more powerful bike, and especially like the idea of having ride modes, cruise control, and the quick shifter.
The bike is priced at $7,899 but they’re only offering $4,250 on the trade in of the XSR700.
Is the upgrade worth it? have any of you made the same upgrade/ a similar move, and did you regret it? are you glad you did it?
I want some advice! Thanks!
Don’t want to flash the ECU because of warranty, still have 3 years left, anyone have experience with a power commander?
Got a 2025 on order and wondering what are good tank grips to look for? Also any other things i should look for to add?
Hi, I want to buy 1 side bag to bring stuff at the work place without the need of a backpack. I looked at SW Motech Legend LC1 side bag.
Will I be able to put a pair of shoes in it? Is the 9.8l size enough or 13l is better??
Will be there enough room for a passenger? The foot pegs look a bit close to the bag in online pictures.
Thank you.
Feel free to look at my most recent post here for context.
Basically, i had an issue reinstalling the front wheel. (I do not want to go into detail on what exactly I did wrong, because it is so unfathomably simple and stupid lmao) I now have the bike moving fine, everything works fine. No ABS light or SC light anymore. But when I was testing the bike before i solved the problem, i got the check engine light to come on.
Now im certain everything is working just fine. Its my understanding though that the check engine light wont clear itself like the other lights will. Is there a way I can clear it myself easily without something like a code-reader? For example just disconnecting and reconnecting the battery or something.
Hello.
I'm still a newish rider. My bike right now is a trident 660.
My plan right now is to give my current bike to my wife in the end of 2025 so she can learn.
At this point I plan to upgrade to an xsr 900. I see it comes stock with a quick shifter. However, I always thought the fun of riding was partly mastering all the clutch control stuff, feathering, and clutch ups, down shifting. This is kinda the "fun stuff" to me.
In curious, am i just new? Or are others turning their quick shifter off? Is it possible to just use the clutch as normal even when it's enabled?
Any more thoughts on the quick shifter? In probably over thinking it, but thought I'd ask
Currently I’m just running a led bulb but would like to explore other options that’s not the motodemic kit. I just ordered a 5.75 inch h4 amazon headlight unit but it doesn’t fit the og headlight housing so now I need a different avenue, and the motodemic options are now sold out sooooo yeah.
I’m Getting back into riding I took the past 2 years off, are there any differences in the new vs old body style ? I’m a big fan of the previous generation bike but I’m not sold on the new look. My local dealer has an amazing deal on a 2024. Does anyone have any experience with the changes made? Thanks
TL:DR Can I put the 2nd Gen pillion pegs on the 1st Gen?
I'm looking to update my ride and have 2 competing bikes in my options list. The 2018 and newer first Gen xsr900 and the 2018 to 2022 Triumph street triple 765 RS. I live in Thailand and they are approximately the same cost in the used market here.
I believe that the xsr900 would be a better all around street bike, while the STRS would make a better twisties machine. However, I do everything on my bikes, shopping, traffic, fast mountain roads, touring, and even light gravel and dirt roads. No, I don't want a damned Cb500x.
Anyway, like any dreamer I'm also looking at aftermarket support for things like crash bars, luggage options, suspension, etc.
I love the look of the later model pillion pegs that fold up along the subframe essentially disappearing when not in use. The earlier subframe has 2 brackets hanging down with the pillion pegs attached.
My question is, are the subframes interchangeable? Could the later pillion pegs be adapted to the earlier subframe?
I don't have a pillion often as my partner has her own bike, but having the option is critical. We tour in pretty remote areas of Thailand and the ability to swap to one of our bikes and leave one is required.
Thank you for the read and any information.
Anyone have pictures of someone on a 22+ with a passanger on board? and any passanger realted mods? tank bar/ seat grab handles or after market passanger pegs or bags etc... Thanks!
So I did the front tire change on the bike. Followed the instructions for removing in the wheel in the service manual, brought the wheel to a shop, had it mounted and balanced, then reinstalled the wheel on bike. Problem is, one of the brakes is partially siezed up, the front right one. (I can tell because of the markings on the brake disc). When i took it around the block, it required more power to move it, and by the time i got to the end of the block, 3 lights came on. The abs light, the SC light, and the check engine light. The front brake lever also doesnt feel quite right. Like there is a little too much travel. But it feels as if im holding in the brakes just a little bit, not enough to completely stop me from moving it with my hand, but requiring significantly more effort than it should.
Im not sure what or where i did something wrong. Ive done the same thing on my previous bike, an mt-03, and that worked fine. Anyone have any advice? Next time i can work on it i just plan to try and redo everything, i just need to know how to unseize that brake.
Things ive tried:
Bleeding pressure from the line. Im pretty sure i did this incorrectly as i really have no idea what im doing, only a little brake fluid leaked out. Tried it again and nothing.
Riding it around the block and hoping it would fix itself (?? Im not sure what i was really expecting).
Loosening the axle a little bit. (Did absolutely nothing).
I'm debating canceling my extended warranty and putting on a yoshi system with an intake. Don't get me wrong I love the bike and the power as is, especially coming from a 300 as my first bike for about a year. But, I'd really love for it to just be a bit louder and get rid of that throttle limitation. I'm not after huge performance gains, but I also want to maintain engine longetivity as best as possible. Would a flash from VCycleNut be adequate or should I get a full tune?
Hi, I have a question regarding ECU Reset. Someone offered me to reset my ECU to remove backfires/afterfires when I keep slowing down from high RPM. He says that an ECU reset will do. is it okay to reset ECU like that? BTW I have an underbelly Akropovic fully exhaust system and K&N air filter
