    I bought mine at the end of October last year and I've put about 1600km on it. I can confirm all you've said.
    It's the first motorcycle I've owned in 20 years (borrowed friends' here and there since). Kept it in B mode until last week when I felt it was time.
    Felt mostly docile in B, now I fear for my license haha! I'm surprised what a difference some throttle mapping can do. Still keeping it on TC2 for now. The thing's a beast in STD mode, I wonder what A is like?
    Love it so much,nI'll keep it for a while. Got a full Spark race exhaust on it and I'm eagerly waiting for my Öhlins NIX 30 cartridges and YA535 rear shock to come in. Total overkill for how I ride but sometimes you gotta treat yourself.
    E: 2016 60th anniversary edition. I knew I had to have it as soon as I saw it, hence why I got it in late October in southern Ontario.

    A, standard and B mode all have same power. The modes change the throttle ratio only. Also they are partial ride by wire. The throttle is still a traditional cable pull burnt he cable go to a servo. From there it becomes a ride by wire. Other than that you are correct. Excellent motor. I love my cp3 engine

    Thanks man! Youve answered all of my questions I had for this bike. I’m honestly comparing the Honda cb 1000R with the xsr900 and after watching this video I’m leaning towards the xsr, but HOW IS THE RELIABILITY OF THE YAMAHA XSR900?

    I'm told by a Yamaha mechanic that 'A' mode doesn't produce more power..... It gives greater and quicker throttle response.

    • @YouMotorcycle
      @YouMotorcycle  2 роки тому +2

      Did I say it made more power? If so, sorry! I probably meant to say it makes more power (in the same period of time) as the other modes. In other words, better performance, though not necessarily greater peak power. Just better and quicker responsiveness and performance. Yamaha mechanic is correct, hope that clears it up!

    ​@YouMotorcycle Good bike review but a cemetery is a sacred place for people, not a bike testing ground. Great bike reviews require finding the right places to test them.

    • @YouMotorcycle
      @YouMotorcycle  3 роки тому +2

      I think different cultures see cemeteries differently. Right now I'm on my balcony looking into the cemetery and I see 3 kids riding their bicycles through it, a woman (parent presumably), a dog walker with two dogs, and a few minutes ago four cyclists came flying by. In my father's home town in the old country the cemetery is OUTSIDE of the town and kept behind a closed gate that is very seldomly opened. Very different places with very different views.

    You obviously never tried Kawis 4-cylinder which they have in the Z900. That thing pulls through the whole rev range.

    • @YouMotorcycle
      @YouMotorcycle  2 роки тому

      You're kind of making my point. You've mentioned one bike which is the exception, which sort of shows just how rare that is, and just how commonly the rule applies to so many others.

    • @EfferusZangetsu
      @EfferusZangetsu 2 роки тому

      Didn't mean it is as an ill intended critique. Just to point out that a bike in the same segment like the XSR has a 4-cylinder power plant which is super strong down low (Z900 RS). These days only smaller 4-cylinders are weak down low, 900s and anything above has crazy pull (depending on the tune and sprockets, Z100SX, Versys, MT10...).

      Because I live in the most densely populated city in my country, with only gridlike roads, no curves, nowhere to lean the bike, and only stop and go traffic. So I rode anywhere else it would just be a video of the back of the bumper of the car in front of me, as we all sit in gridlock. Why does this upset you?
