The XR9 Carbona has been conceived using the experience gathered at the iconic Pikes Peak race when Bottpower won in two categories and finished fourth overall back in 2017. Run over a 19.99km road course with 156 turns and an elevation gain of 1,440 metres, the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb – also known as the Race to the Clouds – is one of the most extreme tests for a bike and rider.
The idea behind the XR9 was to create a motorcycle with a high level of performance that’s ideally suited to riding on open and windy roads. As with many of Bottpower’s other creations, the XR9 has a hint of flat track aesthetics combined with a modern and aggressive stance. XR9 is an evolution of the design featured on the Pikes Peak race bike, while at the same time incorporating details from Yamaha's R-series – like the small hidden headlights that accentuate the sportiness.
The Bottpower team has made use of their extensive experience with composites and 3D printing with the aim of creating a motorcycle that is as light and capable as possible, and the company’s new body kit allows any customer to convert a Yamaha XSR900 or another CP3 Platform into a XR9 Carbona.
The kit is made up of several main bodywork assemblies together with a range of special parts, enabling every CP3-powered Yamaha motorcycle to be customized with a great level of detail.
