SoFarAndNear Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 (edited) Hello, Just want to share an unofficial News. I had a chat with Yamaha customer service and asked about the New Yamaha XSR Models. I have been told that Yamaha Thailand is already working on it to bring these models to the Thai Market. I dont have any Dates but they used the word "soon". Edited August 10, 2016 by SoFarAndNear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhruGin Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 $9490 for std. colour I read ....so about 300,000 baht plus all that import duty here. Shame it will end up at god knows what... 450/500k? Mate in Oz just bought a Yamaha bolt, 409k here, less than 300k in Oz. Nice looking bike though this XSR900. However Ill wait a while to see if the Z900RS comes into play maybe 2018 (and when Ive got the spondoolies to chuck at a nice big toy). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denkiblue555 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Its a nice looking bike to add to the 850cc triples family - now the FZ09/MT09, FJ09, and XSR900......... I wonder if we will see the SCR950 too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Thai Import Duty is so bad. If it would contribute the countries roads itself it would be okay. But since a big amount just lands in the pockets of the high ranking officers its just a big shame. Edited August 10, 2016 by SoFarAndNear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Poko Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Motorcycle Thailand already posted the Thai/English parts catalog and free to download English Owner’s manual, which mains that the Yamaha XSR900 is actually coming. One of the editors I connected replied that tomorrow Motorcycle Thailand will reveal more information… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSJ Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Not a pretty bike! But if it starts everytime, performs well and is reliable I guess we can overlook the styling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pbas400 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 In Thailand MT-09 is 400 K THB in Europe, The difference between MT-09 & XSR900 is 1.5K eur so, the price for the XSR900 will be between 460k-500k THB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soihok Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Was looking at one in the Yamaha agents showroom here in Singapore a couple of Months ago. I like the tank, it reminds me of RD250/350LC. Apart from that I wasn't overly impressed, probably cos I had just been drooling over a new MT-10. Still prefer the looks of the MT-09. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is coming to Thailand there has to be a Japanese production line. The Thai - Japan FTA is the reason Japanese made bikes are now here at relatively reasonable prices. There is no EU - Thailand FTA covering motorbikes. This has reminded me of Honda's very economical CBF 1000F which is/was only made in Italy. Needless to say, it never came to Thailand.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The CBF 1000 F is aimed at quite a different type of rider (someone like me!) who wants a bike set up for longer distance riding with greater comfort and smoother power delivery. Alas, never to be in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is like ordering a steak in a restaurant and they bring you fish. Comparing apples and oranges here, two completely different bikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
