As a motorcycle enthusiast and critic, I'd like to provide my take on the 2022 Yamaha Motorcycle Sport Heritage Series XSR900. A perfect blend of modern tech, raw power, and an uncanny nod to retro style, it embodies Yamaha's well-established reputation in the industry.
Let's start with the visible. The bike's aesthetics balance a modern-industrial chic with nods to the classic motorcycle designs. Small but evocative details such as the full LED lighting, bar-end mirrors, and embossed aluminum rear underplate uphold the neo-retro theme while forging a unique identity for the bike.
Moving past its stunning exterior, the XSR900 is powered by an 890cc liquid-cooled 3-cylinder DOHC fuel-injected engine coupled with a 6-speed transmission and a multiplate assist-and-slipper wet clutch. The bike offers a reliable yet exhilarating ride, capable of zooming down the highway as smoothly as it maneuvers city streets.
The technology incorporated into this motorcycle is another point to marvel at. With a full-color 3.5" TFT display and advanced ride-by-wire throttle, ride control and monitoring become an effortless task. Safety features such as the lean sensitive traction control system, slide control system, brake control system, and assist and slipper clutch add welcome layers of rider safety and stability on the road.
The Yamaha Sport Heritage Series XSR900 also comes with a comfortable seat height of 31.9 in and an optimum wet weight of 425 lb, making it comfortable and manageable for a wide range of riders. Not to mention its impressive fuel economy of 49 mpg, which adds a practical edge to its appeal.
All of these amazing features come at an MSRP of $9999, a reasonable price for such high-quality specs in the market.
While it remains true to Yamaha's heritage, the XSR900 is a modern motorcycle built with today's rider in mind. It artfully combines past and present, offering a unique blend of style, performance, and technology that stands out in the crowded field of street motorcycles.
I assure you that the 2022 Yamaha Motorcycle Sport Heritage Series XSR900 does not disappoint, partaking in the Yamaha legacy while carving its distinct path. While it may not be suitable for everyone, it will certainly capture the hearts of true motorcycle mavens who value history, aesthetics, and performance in equal measure.

When our family wanted to purchase our first boat we tried to find information for research. However the only information available at that time was sales brochures. All of the product information originated from the manufactures. The only price we could find was the retail price listings or MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price). Magazines featured articles, and had really great photo layouts, it only offered product description and the (MSRP) retail price.
We went to the dealership where the sales guy held all the cards. The best thing he had going for him was our lack of information. We tried to wrangle on price without any real success. We bought the boat, but we paid too much. After that experience we felt there had to be a better way.
So we started this website because we did not want anyone else to feel disadvantaged like our family did that day. We discussed what we would like to see. We found experts in their fields and started asking questions. We then put together a team to research products and most importantly the dealer price. We started with boats and realized that there was a great need for information on many kinds of large purchase recreational vehicles and products.
Look when you visit a dealership for a boat, motorcycle or camper, if you have not done your research your negotiation for that item will start with the Manufactures Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The highest price you could pay. The sales person will try to see what you know and size you up. If you do not have product knowledge including what the cost was to the dealer – you are going to pay too much.
See Dealer Cost™ offers product information that is in-depth and understandable. You can build your ideal product on line and see what it cost before you walk into a dealership. See Dealer Cost™ gives you the product options and most importantly the cost without the pressure of someone trying to talk you into something.
Knowledge is power.
After you find the product you want on See Dealer Cost™ and configure the options. You can save it to view or reference later. You can also print out what you put together (with the price). In turn you can use this information to negotiate your best deal.
What if the item is used? We are making available all the information we have gathered over the years so you can research to see the original cost. Even on used items you can use our site to negotiate your best deal.
Our passion here at See Dealer Cost™ is to give people power and knowledge. We were at a disadvantage once and we did not like the feeling.
By the way this great idea we had to build a website with this information. We had to fight to be able to bring this information to you. See Dealer Cost™ was supposed to be a one hit wonder. The manufactures magazines that they send to dealers said we would be dead in no time. They pounded their fists on their desks and said the consumer did not want or need this information. They said we would put them out of business. We were sued multiple times by manufacturers for this information. We are still here.
Why would they not want you to be able to see and use this information? They were afraid that you the consumer would be the true winner.
As it turns out – this information has not put anyone out of business. A consumer who is knowledgeable is confident buyer.
So we continue on with our team of experienced and expert people. We constantly update product lines and most importantly the cost so you have information to make your best deal.
We are proud of the team and proud to be able to assist you in your recreational purchase. We do not sell any of the items listed – we just gather the information.
The products include thousands of boats, motors, campers, motorcycles and more. We are constantly working to expand the information we present for you.
We all have families. We hope your buying experience is a better one than our family’s first purchase. Use this website to be a knowledgeable more confident buyer.
We hope we are a valuable resource for you. Enjoy your purchase.
Thanks,
See Dealer Cost™ Team Members
