Yamaha’s Sport Heritage range pays homage to the company’s most iconic riders and machines from a previous era, while at the same time giving riders the very latest engine, chassis and design technology.
Flagship of the range is the outstanding XSR900 GP, a truly stunning machine inspired by Yamaha’s winning race bikes from the ‘Golden Era’ of Grand Prix racing. With its torque-rich CP3 engine, beautiful race-inspired bodywork and Yamaha’s built-in racing DNA, the XSR900 GP has gained a loyal following of devoted riders since its launch.

For 2026, the XSR900 GP honours one of the most influential and prominent figures in Grand Prix motorcycle racing history: ‘King’ Kenny Roberts. America’s first world champion, ‘King Kenny’ claimed three 500cc titles, spent 13 years with Yamaha and is considered an AMA racing legend with numerous memorable performances — including his unforgettable performance at the 1975 Indy Mile.
Embodying Yamaha’s racing heritage, the 2026 XSR900 GP evokes memories of Roberts’ GP-winning YZR500 machines from the 1970’s and 80’s. The new Legend Yellow livery features a bold yellow and white colour scheme, accented by iconic black Yamaha speedblocks — a powerful visual tribute that blends retro race-bike aesthetics with cutting-edge performance.

Colours
The XSR900 GP will be offered in the striking new Legend Yellow colour, alongside the continued Legend Red.
