Hello, As you can probably tell I'm a full-blown newbie to this forum, and to the MT-09. I've wanted one for years but am finally setting out to purchase one. I was told by the dealership that all 2016 and onwards models come standard with ABS, as I do a lot of daily riding in rain and on...

I know the Tracer is aimed at the 50+ age group, just wondering am I the only one going against the grain. I brought the bike brand new for my 30th Birthday present to myself to replace my old and battered FZS600 I get that it is tailored for the older rider, but I have had a lot of fun in the...

Hi all, new to the forums but I thought i'd share my experience with the dreaded tracer high speed wobble that some, but not all experience. I generally ride 2-up, often with luggage as we do a lot of touring and suffered problems with the factory setup resulting in a vague front end under hard...

Well next week marks the 1st Anniversary of my purchase of my 2015 Tracer. I got it with about 800 miles on the clock and I have clocked up another 4000 since then. This is my first Yamaha, I have owned Hondas since 1970 (Still have a 1998 Blackbird) and have also tried a Triumph(955 Tiger)...

Not being able to just near £100 for the Yamaha (Gilles) chain adjuster block, I picked these billet one up on Ebay for £35, arrived in a couple of days and fitted this morning. I think they look a lot nice than the OE ones, and seem to be a lot more sturdy. I also added a nice new stainless...

Well everyone. The MT is gone, sold, and the new owner has taken it home. Now there is an empty space in my garage, and I'm not sure when that will be filled by something else. Not even sure what bike I will get as a replacement. In the past weeks I have ridden: -BMW S1000RR, S1000R...

Hello everyone ! Reporting as a new proud owner of matte gray 2016 MT 09. For some time following this forum. I wanted this bike when it came out in 2013, in the meantime I was the owner of Ducati Monster 796 ABS and although I really liked the bike, that was not it. Ducs have a great sound...

Having now got my Tracer and enjoying it very much I can't help noticing how much vibration I get through my hands. Ive always suffered a bit with numbness in the hands like most people but seem to get a lot more on the Tracer. Is there anything you can buy like special gloves or grips that...

Just bought a brand new MT07 moto cage. Delivery in jan 7 2016. The most of the time my wife will ride this bike but I'm a fan to. I have a Honda VFR1200F for three years now with 70000 Km on. Hope I enjoy this forum and they learn me a lot of things. Certainly I will do some modification like...

Has anyone found a seat that is a bit more grippy than the OEM one, as I feel like i slip around the place quite a lot? Or am i going to have to find some grippy material and cover the seat myself?

Ordered a comfort seat set for the Tracer, received it last night and stuck them on. First impressions are that the seat is a lot firmer. I previously had my standard seat on the higher of the two settings, but with the comfort seat it felt like I was sitting on a hard cushion on my standard...

Hi everyone . A quick introduction . Just got my new Tracer yesterday . Previous bikes here in Japan include 2 Honda Blackbirds ,Sportster and Suzuiki Intruder. Had my first real ride today on some pretty hairy twisties.Very different to the Blackbird but am looking forward to getting to know...
