XSR900 is based on the concept of The Performance Retrostar.YAMAHA's goal was to fuse modern components (modern technology) and authenticity (essential elements) to create even more value.
World Walk is proud to announce the release of XSR900 Tank Carrier (Purcell Grid).
The use of slender round rods gives a classical and delicate impression, while incorporating gimmicks as tools, such as a mechanism to lift up the top panel.
A belt made of stock cowhide leather is also available as a special option.
The more you use it, the more beautiful its expression changes, which is the charm of natural materials.
Both carrier and belt are designed and manufactured in Japan.The bolt-on structure can be installed without any modification.
[Material]
The material used is steel round bar, which is a common material used for World Walk rear carriers.
It is reinforced with a combination of thin round bars to ensure strength.
It is painted with black urethane paint.
The plates are brass cast for a classic look.
A cowhide belt is also available as an option to enjoy the change over time.
Top panel flip-up mechanism for refueling and top panel shape for better hold of cargo.The tank rack for the XSR900 is equipped with the minimum necessary functions such as a loop to prevent the belt from slipping.
The top panel is a little bit smaller than the rear rack, so it can't carry a big load, but it is suitable for daily use such as fixing rain gear, tank bag and undressed jacket.
In addition, in order to match the appearance with the body design, unnecessary elements were removed and a simple structure was aimed at.
If the general rear rack is a functional item, this tank rack is a dress-up part with a minimum function.
The top panel composed of slender bars gives a classical impression, and the semi-glossy black finish gives a sense of existence as a "tool".
[brass plate with age]
Plate attached to the top of the carrier.
It is made of "brass", an alloy of copper and zinc.
It is a material that does not corrode easily and is easy to work with, and has been used for a long time in arts and crafts, architectural hardware, furniture, and other traditional applications.
The more you use it, the more it becomes calm, and the more the original beauty of the material increases.
The engraved "Beyond" means "to skip the time, distance and technology".
["Flip-up mechanism" for refueling]
The top panel is raised by the hinge at the front of the carrier.
Locking and releasing the lock can be done with one hand, even with gloves on, and accelerating to the fuel outlet is very easy.
The top plate is held at about 105°, so there is no need to support it by hand when refueling.
[Tricks for loading]
Two loops are provided on the back of the top panel.
By passing the belt through this part, the belt shift caused by the shape of the load and acceleration / deceleration is minimized.
In addition, the back part of the top panel is warped by about 135°, which makes it possible to hold the luggage more comfortably.
[Rust-resistant stainless steel locks are used]
Stainless steel locks are used for fixing the top panel.
In addition, a spring type lock that is resistant to vibration is used, and a locknut is used to secure the lock.
[also available with load clamping belt]
You can also use a "strap type" belt as shown in the picture to secure your luggage.
The simple shape of the top panel of the carrier allows a high degree of freedom in terms of function and design.

[Used as a place to secure the tank bag]
Depending on the shape of the tank bag, it may be possible to fix it to the rack.
It can be used in a variety of ways depending on your ideas.(The image shows a Kriega / US-5)
[Leather is a living thing.Bring the joy of "growing" to you.]
Have you ever heard of the term "aging"?
In general, it means "the change of material and performance" with the passage of time, and in the case of genuine leather, it means "the change of beauty over time" by air and human hands.
In planning this product, World Walk incorporated elements that make "aging" enjoyable.
The material used is cowhide leather, which is strong enough to last for a long time.The edge (cutting surface) and the underside (back side) are carefully polished and coated, making it resistant to dirt and friction.
[genuine leather belt made by craftsman one by one]
A single belt is completed by many processes and human hands, including tanneries, mold makers, cutters and finishers.
This time, it was made by one of the few established manufacturers in Japan.
Each belt is made by craftsmen with rich experience and excellent skills, and you can feel the beauty of their handwork.
[The more you use it, the more it becomes your color]
The more you use the real leather belt, the more the fibers will loosen and the softer it will become, and the color will also change to a deep candy color.
This kind of texture can be enjoyed only with natural materials.
In addition, the buckle used for the belt is made of brass.
With the passage of time, the surface that was shiny at first becomes oxidized, and the original beauty of the material increases.
Real leather is a material that will last for decades if you take care of it, so even the scratches that increase as you use it will be something to love.
