hmm too bad I don't live in the US. I have a spare Yamaha Comfort seat (rider and passenger) for at T9 2021.

Just a quick update on this matter I have had the new seat locked in for a week now and succesfully unlocked it yesterday. I could see that the padding was about to shrink a little due to being under preassure when locked in. So I trust it that it will get better over time

Good idea. Will do that when its time to take out of the winter-storage

Yeah i Saw that episode as well...along a lot of the other episodes.

Thanks I guess it was to visit Legoland?

Thanks and you are right, CP3 is the common language

Hey So as stated above, happy owner of tracer 9 2021 Tech Camo owner. Born and raised in the very little kingdom of Denmark in Europe The Tracer 9 2021 is my first Yamaha. previous bikes were all Suzuki and for the record so far I'm very fond of the switch of brands. English is not my native language so bare with me if the grammar/spelling is not pitch perfect

OK I won't ask you how you know this but what I will do is express my deepest sympathy with the struggle of getting the broken key out of the lock Thanks for the input. It would have been easier if it had been possible to install some washers underneath the bracket. Since it is not possible maybe your idea of filing 1-2 mm off of the metal tab.

Thanks all. Problem semi-solved I tried using force (Sitting on the seat my self) and it locked in and was in place. However it was a struggle to unlock it afterwards. I guess it takes some practice. For a short moment I got scared that I could not unlock it So..next step is to find out what options I have in case I can't unlock it and even worse if I break the key in the lock trying to unlock the seat!

A few pictures to show the backside of the passenger seat. I can't seem to find the place to add washers between the seat pan and the bracket?

Hmm ok. Being a not very skilled person in terms of mechanics (I'm a software programmer with no crafting talent:) ) would it be too much to ask you to make a few pictures showing what you mean? Oh and thanks for the input

Today I installed the brackets for the original Yamaha side bags, and the bags as well Can't wait for some longer trips this summer now that I have the extra storage

OK, thanks a lot. Will try it tomorrow. And you are saying that it got better in time for you?

Allright..so you are saying to use force by sitting on it until it clicks in?

OK so I recieved mine last week and tried to install it yesterday. Sadly it did not fit and to make matters worse, it is a custom made seat where I had to return my own So now I'm without any seats at all which is a real bummer. I have emailed Topsellerie about the issue and expect an answer tomorrow about what to do. The issue as I see it. The rider seat can be installed OK The passanger seat can be installed OK, but only if the rider seat is NOT installed. If the rider seat is installed there doesn't seem to be enough room for the passenger seat. Not even by using force I can make it click in to the lock I have noticed that when the rider seat is installed and locked in, I can barely get my finger down to the release lever now due to very little space. This was not an issue with the original seat leaving my to conclude that the issue is the rider seat being too "long" for the passenger seat to fit as well.

Hi Thinking about investing in sidepads for my 2021 tracer 9 tech camo. I found these and was wondering if anyone knows if the are crap or actually same quality as the originals from Yamaha. These could serve as an example of cheaper ones! https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002978818834.html

I have made an order for a seat for my 2021 tracer 9. Send my own seat and awating arrival in 1 month...hopefully it will fit

Allright...well thanks a lot. That made a LOT of sense. I'll be off to a hardware store to buy 2 4mm washers for the left side. Again, thanks a lot...way better than what I would expect from the manual

Thanks...and if I can ask for one more thing... Im not very skilled in terms of mechanichs etc...I'm a software programmer just trying to make my way and learn along the way. Furthermore my native language is not english...so what I want to ask if it is not too much. Could you make a picture of what you mean when you say "bracket"...just so I know what it is

Thanks. My bike is the same as the one in the video (not GT, hence no KYB suspension) so I guess I need those washers on the left side as well. Do you consider these to be standard 1-2mm washers like these? https://www.biltema.dk/en-dk/construction/fixing-elements/washers/washer-assortment-250-pack-2000017240

Thanks that would be awesome. Hope the video was sufficient to describe the "washers" Im talking about

Hi I just bought a used set of Yamaha side bags (30L) for my Tracer9. Unfortunately the manual for assembly did not come along. My first question is if anyone has the instructions?? Second question. I found a Youtube video which pretty well describes how to install the bags but at 4:45 it seems as if a set of washers are added prior to mounting the rear foot-rest/bag fittings back on the frame. My second question is if these are normal washers or if they are some special ones?? Again if only I had the manual for assembly I believe the answer to my question would be there. The video showing the washers (video starts at time of installing them https://youtu.be/siE6oOYqjXg?t=282 Thanks in advance!
