Described by Yamaha as an ‘engineering masterpiece’, the XS750 took the world by storm for its smoothness thanks to the constant velocity U-joints giving a virtually vibration-free ride. The triple engine was a work of art with incredible low-midrange power; it appealed to a multitude of riders. The technology didn't stop there; the lightweight cast aluminium wheels eliminated more vibrations, and being spoke free, no maintenance was required to tighten them. Launched in 1976, it took just one year to get voted by readers of Motorcycle News as bike of the year in 1977.
