The Yamaha Tracer is a bike I've never tried, I've always thought of it as a bit boring.. But I couldn't have been more wrong! This latest top of the range GT+ model which is laden with tech but what's it like to ride??

@Fernando90054 5 месяцев назад

Yamaha is one of the top motorcycle brands in what’s concerned to motorcycle’s engine wise. This Cp3 is fun and strong and the styling of this tracer 9 GT + is very well sorted out in that grey color but the detail of the golden or yellow stripe making the transition to the black gas tank it’s classy in terms of design and paint job. I wish they could put the MT-10 engine on this bike 😊 Thanks for the excellent video. And I will be looking forward to the touring part of the test.👌🏻

@mrcintheuk4641 5 месяцев назад

Always like the way you give the essence of the bike rather than just the specs. I'm an old git and in my experience the bike often has more talent than the rider and people invariably end up promoting themselves in respect of power to their level of incompetence. The jury is out on the new leathers. 🤔

@LambChopRides 5 месяцев назад

Thanks buddy, yeah if you want specs go look at the Yamaha website right? I try to let you know how it feels to ride. Yeah leathers not very flattering in that view 😄

@marcusgeorge1825 5 месяцев назад

The radar range is generally on cars steering wheels so it makes sense for it to be on the handle bar. The brake and clutch levers from the factory are set for people at 5’6”, so of course they’d feel too upright for taller riders. You can’t adjust them for a test ride, just make it the first thing you do when purchasing any bike. Suspension adjustments second (if possible).

@douglasalexander4348 5 месяцев назад

I’ve the older 2017. The reason I got it was it’s fantastic fun, and you can hammer it round the lanes. Pop the panniers and my tall shield on, now I’ve got a lightweight tourer. Be aggressive with it and it will reward you. The newer Gt ones the same, more refined suspension, but the same DNA.

@epicrider7861 5 месяцев назад

I got the exactly same colored GT+ in November last year. I added the heated seat to make my winter ride less painful. This bike is well put together and my riding expectations have been spoiled after having owned this bike. GT+ has everything I want for my bike. The CP3 engine is a peach, I believe. It sounds awesome as well. I also own new MT10 and Tenere700. So, I have all three CP versions at the same time currently.

@wiscomoto 5 месяцев назад

I've got a gen 1 Tracer 900 (FJ09 in the States). I absolutely LOVE it! It did suffer from a horrid seat and weak suspension, but both those were easily rectified. I've got it well dialed and it's equal parts hooligan machine and tourer. I'm debating adding either the new T9GT+ or another FJR for long distance work, but the nod is going heavily towards the Tracer with the tech. Oh, and I can confirm knee down and scrapped pegs, at least on a sorted Gen 1.

@paulvanhout9695 5 месяцев назад

Excellent review, if I was new to adventure bikes this is the one . Lovely 3 cylinder engine. Good you can choose all tech or no tech as such. Only thing horrible in borring grey .Don't know Why you said you negative things about wearing leathers we do on our multistrada even touring to France. Plus much better for wind resistance still use pike peak small screen.

@e1huron 5 месяцев назад

Amazing review! Looks like it's a lot of fun. Could this be a bike to upgrade from the Tiger 660?

@MatNewtonTrio 5 месяцев назад

Haven’t ridden the GT plus but was straight to the dealers when the GT came out with the intention of updating mine. I love so many things about the Tracer, the engine is certainly the highlight. The CP3 has lots of character and I love that induction noise. I’ve had my 2016 model for the last 5yrs and have enjoyed it for the most part. Sorting that suspension and remapping it is an absolute must. They definitely sorted a lot of that with the GT. My only real niggle is the screen which Yamaha still haven’t sorted (I’ve tried many different ones). I think the power of the bike is a nice compromise, I can press on and use the power without getting too silly. I hated the split screen but the big LCD looks nice. TCS off at all times unless it’s a bit cold or wet. You can get your knee down 😂. It’s definitely got the fun factor.

That assisted braking might have saved my last bike when a van stopped dead in front of me. I have a lightly used 21 plate GT on the way. Leathers in 10deg is brave. 🥶

@junderwoituk 4 месяца назад

Great review chops and the leathers are looking cool 🙂 I think I like the colors on the Std GT than the GT+ version better, as the gold wheels and forks look cool together. Again I think all manufactures need to be a bit more bold on available colors, too much black all the time.... a bit boring?

@MGman100 5 месяцев назад

A great review, certainly putting the bike through its paces. I have the T9GT and have done 8.5k miles in 18 months. Plus points - sound, performance, panniers. Negative points- windscreen (I've added a spoiler), poor finish after one winter and fuel gauge. I don't think the GT+ is worth the extra money and I still firmly believe that my Street Triple engine was better.

@siontwowheels 5 месяцев назад

Great vid as ever Chopsy!… It is a really, really good ‘everyday’ bike isn’t it. Practical when you need it to be and great fun when you want it to be… Although I think it would be difficult not to have fun up that road (getting to and up ‘your’ hill climb! 😎) It’s so good, I think any bike is fun through there isn’t it! 👍🏍️😎

When looking at bikes in November it was a toss up between one of these and a Tiger 900 GT Pro. I would have been happy with either but went for the Tiger since I could get a deal and because the Tracer is new there was no deals to be had. I like my Tiger but I'm sure this would have been good too.

@MrAndrew1953 5 месяцев назад

I’m convinced this bike,this model if the reddies are available would be top of my list . I don’t think I’d go for the panniers,preferring a large top box. Heated seat and grips. Bloody nice,well featured bike.

Much better dash than the early one that was horrible, not a fan of the overall look,panniers are a peculiar shape, I like that it’s got decent bhp, it’s pity the Tiger 900 was up there on the bhp that’s still a bit down on bhp, I like all the design tech features, but not the price tag of this Yamaha ,

@MH-xd2nd 5 месяцев назад

It is fascinating that Yamaha has largely abandoned the litre-plus class. Both the MT10 and R1 sit right at the sports end of the market. No Super Ten replacement, FJR etc. It’s also interesting that they have cheap, touring and full fat versions of the Tracer 9, so you can’t really say the GT+ is too expensive when you can get the base bike for about £10K - which might actually be the smart buy. As always though I expect Yamaha sells far fewer basic bikes than GT/GT+ because buyers want the tech. Looks like a lot of fun!
