Motorcycle enthusiasts have been talking about Yamaha XSR300 for years. It’s a spiritual successor to the famous RD350 with retro inspired design and modern performance. Yet, Yamaha has been teasing this model for a while now with no exact launch date. While some riders are getting impatient and looking for alternatives, others think it's worth the wait for a potentially game changing bike in the 300cc segment. It has also sparked speculation over whether Yamaha is fine tuning the bike or if it has production issues. Competitors are meanwhile launching their own retro styled models that could begin to nibble at the XSR300's target market. This situation has created a dilemma for potential buyers: And should they wait for the XSR300, or go for an available alternative?
