In case you missed out, Yamaha USA introduced their brand new XSR700 Sport Heritage motorcycle and XMAX scooter for their 2018 model lineup at the AIM Expo in Columbus, Ohio.

Besides the new bikes, the 2018 lineup also includes the Star Eluder and all-new Star Venture and YZ450.

The XSR700 features a compact 689cc inline twin cylinder engine with a Crossplane Concept 270-degree crankshaft, a sporty chassis alongside powerful ABS brakes. It also pays tribute to the original Yamaha XS650 but with a modern touch. It has a stitched two-level seat and an old-school style round headlight.

The XMAX however, is powered by a 292cc single cylinder, fuel-injected engine. The Constant Variable Transmission (CVT) makes riding a much easier task. And to keep everything in line, there is a Traction Control System (TCS).
