Yamaha have a reputation for breaking through boundaries.They proven ourselves repeatedly by winning competitions on the tarmac and in the dirt, and you can count on the legendary spirit for high-tech bikes that also deliver winning performances on the street.The street machines are made to intimidate with their styling, from the muscular grace of the Yamaha XJR1300 to the Super-motard flair of the XT660X or the zippy playfulness of the YBR250.
What you're feeling is natural. It's the excitement, tinged with awe, of viewing a Yamaha XJR1300. This is a big machine. It's big on power, big on technology, and big on street-dominating style. It's an eye-grabbing engineering masterpiece that bonds classic air-cooled engine design with four valves per cylinder, fuel injection and a great-sounding EXUP exhaust. The superbly balanced chassis completes the picture, with a double cradle tubular steel frame.
The chunky 43 mm front forks, three-spoke alloy wheels and mono bloc 4-piston front brake calipers with floating discs add even more muscularity. The 2012 Yamaha XJR1300 that comes with style and size.
One look over the timeless line, one listen to that classic burble and you know it’s the definitive air-cooled muscle bike . The fuel-injected Yamaha XJR1300 utilities contemporary engine technologies like a super sport derived fuel injection system, forged pistons with carburetor rods and electroplated alloy cylinders, for contemporary performance. It’s the same story with the chassis – super bike spec brakes, wheels and tires meet Öhlins rear suspension for brilliant steering and handling.
