Today we take a look at a motorbike that is on sale right now here in the UK and across other parts of the world too and it makes it's way to you in the form of the XV 950 R from Japanese motorbike manufacturer Yamaha. The XV 950 R makes it's way to you in the form of a Sports tourer model and has proven to be some good competition for the likes of BMW and Kawasaki with this particular model. If you're looking for a motorbike that is good for long travel distances and benefits from power and comfort too, we believe that the XV 950R could very well be the ideal bike for you.

What helps the Yamaha XV 950R stand out ?

So what has made it into this motorbike throughout the manufacturing process to help it stand out as a must own model and something you should spend your money on ?. Well firstly we see the welcome inclusion of a 942cc air cooled engine that also benefits from a fuel injection system, a wet multiple disc clutch, a TCI ignition and an electric starter too. As standard you can expect to receive a constant mesh, five speed transmission system. Hydraulic disc brakes and a 12 litre fuel tank capacity also make this bike something special.

There are some other unique features that come along with this bike also and we see these come in the manner of two into one exhaust pipes, ABS as standard, Piggy back shock absorbers, a rubber damped clutch and an all new revised air intake system also comes along for the ride too. With that in mind we believe this model could very well hold it's own going up against some other sports tourers such as the VFR 1200F from Honda.
