Frequently asked

What tire size does a Yamaha XJ 900 S Diversion use?

GarageDex's powersports data shows the Yamaha XJ 900 S Diversion runs a 120/70-17 front tire and a 130/70-18 rear tire. Tire sizes vary by year - see the table for each range.

What do the tire numbers mean?

A size like 120/70-17 reads as tread width (mm) / aspect ratio (% of width) - rim diameter (in). Match all three so the tire fits the rim and clears the swingarm and fender.

Do the Yamaha XJ 900 S Diversion tire sizes change by year?

Yes - fitment differs across the years we cover: 2002 runs 120/70-17 front / 130/70-18 rear; 2001 runs 120/70-V17 front / 150/70-V17 rear; 1999 runs 120/70-17 front / 150/70-17 rear. Match your exact year in the table.

Can I fit a different tire size?

Stick to the stock size - it's matched to the rim width, speedometer, and handling. A wider tire can rub the swingarm or fender and throws off the speedo, so only deviate on a shop's advice.
