I had the GT 900 2019 model and the vibration through the handlebars and pegs was a lot more that the 2015 model, however, with touring pegs and after 6000 miles, it softened out a little. Overall a beautiful bike to ride, with so much torque that i didnt know what to do with it in the UK!
Check your shock isn’t too soft for your weight (mine was) and change tyres to mich 5. Way more feel, stock felt wooden and vague in corners in comparison. No wobbles from mine.
@@mattkemp1902 Interesting about the 7 ! You’ll get good mileage from the 5 as well, considering it’s grip. They look a bit of a compromise with its heavy tread cuts, but I’m the limiting factor going round corners.
I have same but in different colour. I totally agree with your toughts and opinion about this bike. What I need to exchande is the tires . Dunlop sportmax is not very good. I'll change for Michelin pilot road 5 - much better tires. What kind of TPMS (tire presssure meter) did you installed and what is your opinion about it?
I agree the triple Yamaha’s power is so much easier to reach than on the Kawasaki’s . Those aren’t clouds bringing rain it’s Angela Merkel throwing Germans retirement money in the air. Yes feeling getting used to the throttle response, fuel mapping being ride by wire it’s a little Snatchy
hey bro..i have the exact same bike and same tyre pressure monitoring system..just one question! ur tyres pressure way too low..22f 25r??? this is in psi or what>?>!
Yamaha suggests using quickshifter over 4k rpm but that's on my 2020 anf it didnt even come with one in the states 😡I could see why it would be clunky around town but smooth out when your acceleration is harder/higher rpms🤷♂️
Hi! I have a Yamaha Tracer 900 2020 (great bike btw) and I installed a big Puig windscreen with adjustable spoiler and...I am not kind of happy with that. I feel a wind goes to the middle of my body. Maybe I want too much. And this is actually not a car:) But could you please give me a model of your windscreen? And could you also desribe you feelings about a wind flows?
This is the original touring windscreen by Yamaha. Just ask your Yamaha dealer. The Windprotection is almost perfect for me. Regarding this issue maybe Kawasaki Versys 1000 SE is better.
@@igorkuznetsov8295 Original touring is much better than any givi/puig windscreens. I'm using it on the tours . In the city and short trips I'm using standard windscreen (less than 5 mins of installation)
I'm have MRA vario screen which works well and it is a little quiter than stock, especially on the highway. I first tried the original touring screen from yamaha, but wasnt happy with it. When down it caused turbulent air, in the up position it was ok, but sometimes making annoying cracking sounds on the highway. I wanted better protection when touring in rain. But still have an option to get more air in hot summer. I will try to modify the touring screen in the future with drilling the holes and adding the vario spoiler from mra, to see if it will work and smooth the airflow. It will be expensive fail if it wont.
Because of the side panniers and the topcase. This issue I have also experienced on the naked bike I must say, but at speeds beyond 210 kmh. I think it depends also on the amount of wind from the side. And I would not say that the steering trembles. You just feel that the bike does not go on a straight line and the front wheel looses a little bit grip. We must also consider the following fact: This bike is not constructed to go at these high speeds, it is not a sportsbike. And where on the world can you legally drive over 120-130 kmh except on german autobahn?
@Dallas Bros. I can answer you. It is not a bike for 2 persons. Especially if your total load reaches max limit of 179kg ( I am 95kg, 2nd is 65kg plus clothing and top case with luggage). Passenger feels comfortable, but for a rider it is a nightmare to drive the bike. And because of week rear spring even at maximum preload you get a very small ground clearance. I am thinking of installing a aftermarket suspension because of that. It starts from $700-800 for rear shock.
