Yamaha has introduced two new classic
colour options for the 2020 XSR700 in Taiwan. The 2020 model of the
retro-modern motorcycle also gets two optional modification kits. The Yamaha
XSR700 has a charming and vintage look thanks to the round headlamp and
taillamp. The design of the motorcycle is inspired by that of the company’s
first 4-stroke model called the XS-1. To further enhance the classic touch of
the XSR700, Yamaha has introduced two new colour options namely Radial White
and Matte Silver.
The Radial White colour option of the 2020
Yamaha XSR700 originated from the classic colour scheme of Yamaha MotoGP bikes
in the 1970s. It has white as the base colour and broad red stripe on the fuel
tank. The front fender has been painted red as well whereas the alloy wheels
are finished in gold. The Radial White colour pays tribute to Yamaha's long
history of racing.
With the Matte Silver paint scheme, Yamaha
has tried to show the original texture and lustre of the metal. The fuel tank
has the company’s branding in a smaller font. The red highlight with black
bordering enhances the bike’s overall visual appeal. The Matte Silver colour
option comes with black alloy wheels.
The 2020 Yamaha XSR700 is available with
two optional modification kits in Taiwan. The first modification kit is called
the ‘Fun Ride’ kit. It includes parts such as aluminium goggles styling trim,
aluminium side cover, double styling cushion, front fork dust cover. This gives
the motorcycle a more mature look. The second modification kit has been named
as the ‘All-Rounder’ kit. It adds a pure classical taste with parts like the
retro side bag (including bracket), single-seat cushion (including rear
armrest), short goggles, handle cover, water tank protection net.
In Taiwan, the Yamaha XSR700 costs NTD
398,000 (US$ 13,477) .
