Positioned in Yamaha's classic motorcycle lineup, the 2019 Yamaha XSR700LA features a 655 cc (40 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 78.0 x 68.6 mm (3.1 x 2.7 inches) with a 11.0:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the XSR700LA measures 186 kg (410 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 835 mm (32.9 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,405 mm (55.3 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 14-liter (3.7 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 4.06 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 345 km (214 miles) between fill-ups.
