I've been wanting to see more content in this community so I've decided to "be the change"

So instead of ~~praying~~ posting my bike over and over, I'll try to post a featured motorcycle with some quick stats. First up:

2024 Yamaha XSR 700

Engine: 689.6 cc (42.08 cu in) 2-cylinder liquid-cooled four-stroke engine Torque: 689.6 cc (42.08 cu in) 2-cylinder liquid-cooled four-stroke engine, Power: (55 kW (74 hp)) at 9,000 rpm Top speed: 200 km/h (120 mph) Weight: ~186 kg (410 lb)

If you have one, tell us about it. What are your pros and cons?

Personally I hope to get one.

It just looked like it was designed for much more of it to be covered up. It didn’t have any style, like no care had been put into aesthetics. I ended up with a CB1100. If I were going to pick a retro twin, I’d probably go with a Triumph Bonneville or the Kawasaki. I ended up finding a used CB1100. I really would’ve preferred a twin, but the price was right and I love the style.

I can see that for sure. Especially compared in person to the Kawasaki. I'm hoping to post the Kawasaki next.

How do you like your CB1100?
