Automotive design expert Shoeb Kalania has rendered a regular,
continuous production version of a cafe racer on Yamaha XSR900.
The XSR series is called as Sports Heritage series.
It aims to mix modern technology with traditional design. The XSR900 brings the
best of Yamaha’s latest engineering, wrapped in a retro design, paying tribute
to timeless classic machines. A cafe racer version will take this attempt
further ahead.
The Yamaha XSR900 cafe racer can be
the same inline three cylinder liquid cooled, crossplane 847 cc mill. In the
standard roadster, the engine is coupled to a 6-speed gearbox and is capable of
producing 115 PS of maximum power at 10,000 rpm and 87.5 Nm of peak torque at
8,500 rpm. This high compression mill will be ideal for a cafe
racer which originally in the 60s rose as a motorcycle built to sprint from one
cafe to another.
