Yamaha XSR900 was simply a next level MT-09 while this Abarth Limited Edition makes the bike even more special than ever. The retro inspired design now gets carbon fiber treatment and makes both the standard XSR900 and the Abarth Edition, one of their kind products. The Euro 4 norms brought an end to the similar themed XJR1300.
