u/Outrageous-Wheel-248

This bike is such a gorgeous machine, always have to stop and take in the beauty of it when riding!

This summer me and my friend went on a 4000km roadtrip to reach Como/Italy, from Norway. We took the ferry from Bergen to Hirtshals, then hammered the autobahn down to Innsbruck. From there we took the Sella Ronda roundtrip from Selva di Val Gardena, continuing to Stelvio, then Dervio by lake Como. We took the trip around the lake, continued north and then east back over Stelvio, through Austria and up to Schweinfurt in Germany before doing the last stretch up to Denmark. All done in 1 week, way too little time to thorougly enjoy it :D And even less time to use a "dedicated" camera that had to travel in a proper bag etc.

This is where the Ricoh came in for me! It travelled in my tankbag, or my jacket pocket and I could pull it out at any time to snap some photos and not be an annoyance to my mate on the other bike. The SOOC results of this camera speaks for itself too, as you can see from the pics! Super happy with the Ricoh GR IIIx for this use case, and I find myself using the Sony A7V waaaay less than I used to.

I bought the IIIx at the start of June 2026 and used it for work, everyday stuff and travel - and wow this camera is amazing!

I use it 99% as a SOOC jpeg shooter and enjoy shooting for the JPEG and not underexposing to save highlights etc, adds another dimension to shooting the photos.

I believe these are all SOOC, the B/W ones might be slightly tinkered jpegs to add contrast though (don’t remember).

They’re all shot with a recipe on the B/W film sim or a negative film sim.

Mod list:
- Aliexpress headlight cover
- Aliexpress radiator guard
- Tracer 7 tankpad (OEM Yamaha)
- Knee grips (OEM Yamaha)
- Screen protector (Eazi-grip)
- Rear seat cover (Pyramid moto)
- Tail tidy (Pyramid moto)
- Mini blinkers (Rizoma)
- Full catless exhaust (Mivv X-M5)
- Cat CEL eliminator (Roadsitalia)
- Clip-ons (ProBrake)
- Bar-end mirrors (Oxford)
- Rim-tape (OEM Yamaha)
- Ceramic coating (Quartz v3.0)
- Weekend pack (OEM Yamaha)

Fitted these adjustable clipons from ProBrake and I love how it came out!

These are universal 50mm “clamp on fork” type clipons that are fully adjustable. Didn’t need to mod anything, just drill the dowel pin holes for the controls in the correct spot.

It’s definitely a more dedicated ride now, but I love the aesthetic so much that I’ll live with that.

Bonus for us Europeans is that they come with TUV papers so they’re fully street legal!

Turistene ser likevel ut til å kose seg i det minste!

Som lokal synes jeg det er ganske trist sommer vi har 😄

Lenge siden jeg har lagt ut noen slike videoer her i r/Bergen, men synes de er fine å lage som hobbyprosjekt, så deler denne.

Shot on negative film sim with a recipe. SOOC, completely untouched photos!

Bought this camera for this vacation and I'm so stoked with the camera. Yes, it's slow and sluggish compared to my A7V, but this one lives in my shorts pockets and lets me catch shots on the go that I wouldn't have gotten otherwise. Taking the A7V out for these scenes was a no-go for me with the paranoia associated with leaving it in the beach bag etc. There's also a charm to working more intentionally with how many photos I take for each scene instead of blasting away with the A7V and 24-70.

I posted some SOOC shots earlier today, now I'm posting a different selection, but with edited RAW files. All edits are based on negative film colour profile in lightroom (camera matching) with mainly added contrast and a slight hue-shift on blues, greens and global shift. Not much done in ways of lifting shadows or lower highlights. A few are shot with a 1/4 mist filter with the NISI filter adapter just for dust protection and some effect (when taking it to the beach etc).

There are a lot of photos, but I felt like sharing these as they're examples of photos shot on the go that I thought turned out real nice and that I probably wouldn't have gotten elsewise.

Feedback is always appreciated!

These are SOOC shots based on negative film sim from just one of the days on vacation😄

Was out riding and taking some photos today and this one came out way better than I anticipated!

I added in some other photos aswell.

Mods:

- Pyramid fly screen

- Pyramid rear cowl

- Pyramid tail tidy

- Mivv XM5 full exhaust

- Yamaha OEM rim tape

- Aliexpress headlight grill

- Aliexpress radiator guard

- OEM Mirrors turned upside down

I got this fly screen from Pyramid moto in the UK and I must say this really transformed the look of the bike for me! I've seen some photos before and not been completely convinced on the wind - or flyscreen look on these bikes, but I think it's because a lot of photos don't do it justice. So I tried to do it justice by taking photos myself. Together with the pyramid rear cowl it completes the bike for me!

Hi so I tried googling this, checking the official website for fitment etc and couldn’t find any info for the XSR900 2022+ neither here or there.

So I set out on a mission to find cross-compatible ring adapters so I could fit the GIVI bags on my XSR.

Checking part number for the tank lid revealed that the XSR shares it with the MT10 2016+, which is a bike listed on the GIVI official list, using ring BF27.

TLDR; You need BF27 to fit a GIVI bag on the 2022+ XSR900.

Pictured with the lockable model 902 which also has lockable zippers that I find very handy!

I got good response on my previous POV sound video of the 900 with a Mivv XM5, so posting another one with more varied load and rpms! Enjoy :D

I'm so stoked with the sound and feel of this bike with the Mivv X-M5 exhaust giving out a perfect note!

Love how the internal ND allows me to do 1/13 SS during daylight for these panning shots!
