What do you get with a Yamaha xjr1300?
Buy the Yamaha, but only if the deal’s right. With the Yamaha XJR1300 you get a centrestand, analogue clocks and… that’s about it, despite the 2007 updates. The older SP gets Ohlins shocks, but you can’t adjust them, so it’s all a bit pointless. The factory sells crash bungs, a hugger and luggage.
Is the Yamaha xjr1300 Superbike brakes top drawer?
The ex- R1 superbike brakes are top drawer, though. The Yamaha XJR1300’s DOHC air-cooled motor started its life pushing around the sporty-touring type thing that was the 1984 FJ1100.

Although the new suspension has far more adjustability and makes for a considerably improved ride the XJR still doesn’t like being rushed.
