Who else has a little scrambler that&#8217;s actually called that, comes in yellow and &#8211;<br \/>\nOh!, ladies and gents, this just got interesting!<br \/>\nYamaha showed us an XSR700 over the summer, then they smack us in the face with this, just in time for the Progressive\u00ae IMS Long Beach\u00a0this weekend.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s still a bit heavy if you ask me, but it sure is a knockout in the looks department.<br \/>\nBack in the day, you had a motorcycle. You scrambled on it. The lighter the better. So an 850cc triple wouldn&#8217;t be my first choice for a starting point. It&#8217;s actually only 20lbs heavier than the Ducati&#8217;s (claimed) wet weight of 410lbs, and it packs around 40 more ccs. \u00a0The heads that you&#8217;ll turn at the coffee shops and on the occasional fire road or campsite are sure to make you feel like you&#8217;re king of the hill. Price is still TBD (don&#8217;t open wallet until Feb 2016!). Look out Ducati! Yamaha is soon to be scrambling up Mt. Hipster too.<br \/>\n-Cheers<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you seen the Yamaha XSR900? I would say that this is Yamaha&#8217;s line in the sand.
