2016 Yamaha XSR700 Revealed + Video
http://www.motorcycle.com/manufacturer/yamaha/2016-yamaha-xsr700-revealed-video.html
Yamaha has released images and a video of its new retro-styled production model, the XSR700. The XSR is a variation of the FZ-07 platform, a retro roadster slightly reminiscent of Ducati’s successful Scrambler. As of this writing, the XSR700 has only been announced by Yamaha Motor Europe, but we expect it will also be sold in North America; we’ll provide an update when we hear back from Yamaha Motor U.S.A.
The 2016 Yamaha XSR700 follows the “Faster Sons” philosophy that led to a concept model produced by L.A.-based designer Shinya Kimura. It pays tribute to the classic XS650 but with modern technology, including the 689cc Twin engine from the FZ-07.

XSR700’s 32.1-inch seat height is 0.4-inch taller than the FZ’s

サスストロークはFZ-07と同じで、シート高が0.4インチ高いと。
ドゥカティスクランブラーの成功から、ヤマハも出して来たようです。
スペックそこそこで、長く乗れるスタンダードなデザインが好まれるのでしょうね。
これベースに、カフェレーサー作るのも良いと思う。
