There’s really nothing better than grabbing a kit, chucking it at your bike with a few expletives and the rest of the coffee pot, and rolling out the garage with a new aesthetic designed to make your neighbors jelly. 

In true fashion, Y’s Gear has contributed to this legacy by offering a custom kit duo for our dear community of Yamaha XSR900s, christened the “Blood Line Style” and “Touring Style” – and the results have us liking that boxy tail a wee bit more.

Embrace the aesthetic.

The kit parts are reminiscent of Yamaha’s 60th-anniversary edition, based on the original classic livery scheme, which is a nice touch. No better bit of body to slap on a neo-retro racer like the XSR900.

We’re also told that the kit has the perk of the following components: 

  • tail tidy
  • adjustable brake and clutch levers
  • headlight grill
  • Akrapovic exhaust system
  • steering damper
  • radiator cover
