Hi Having traded my Tracer 900 GT 2018 for the Tracer 9 2022 I have a few items from the 900 that I need to find a home for. Low seat MRA screen Inner bags for the Yamaha pannier All in good condition. I live in Cambridge, so no reasonable offer refused if someone can collect! Vic

Has anyone fitted the Yamaha light stay to their Tracer 9 and if so any pictures, videos or tips. The instructions seem very unclear!

I also prefer the SWMotech/Yamaha bag. It follows the lines of the tank better and the tank ring is much more discrete than the givi which imho looks like an ashtray stuck on top of the tank!

ABBA Skylift back in stock in the UK now but no offers on their website. I think I’ll wait to order and see if there are any offers in May with the Kings Coronation holiday.

I don’t see that offer on their website??

Thank you very much for this comprehensive and helpful review. Very timely as I’ve been deciding whether to buy one. I live in the UK and it’s a real bargain here at at £490 including the tracer adapters and delivery.

Had a very wet ride this week and next day intercom was working ok, but my buddy suddenly heard lots of static after which my microphone died. Tested it at home and it really is dead! Tried the SC1A in another helmet and it’s fine. Does anyone know if the microphone can be replaced? Can’t find anything on the Schuberth site. Vic

I posted elsewhere on this. It really is ridiculously complicated for such a small job. Just 3 bolts to attach it, but to get to it you have to remove many plastic panels and the pannier hangers. The instructions are useless and putting it all back together is a real pain remembering which plastic pop rivets go where as they’re not all the same.

Having fitted the top box on my Tracer 9 GT I ordered a new lock to rekey it to my ignition key. Where other Yamaha instruction sheets have been incomprensible the instructions for the lock were really straightforward, and much easier than others may have thought from various videos. The lock comes with a printed key template, which describes how to measure the key with callipers, and then which tumblers to insert in each of 5 sockets. Really easy and no need for trial and error!

Yes indeed. If only it was as easy. I think the T9 seems to have made it more complex than it need be just to get at the 3 bolt holes!

My panniers were recently replaced after a car knocked my new Tracer 9 over. (His insurance covered it) i also recently bought and added a Yamaha 39L top box to my bike. The top box has a different lock and key. However I discovered today that I can unlock and open panniers with the Top Box key, but not vice versa. I’m wondering if that’s normal, or when the locks were transferred to the new panniers some tumblers were lost! Seems anyone with a Yamaha key might be able to open the panniers Vic

Hi I received the top box and plate yesterday and thought I'd install it this morning. Only three bolts to fix the rack to the bike, so probably a 5 minute job. How wrong was I! The minimalistic instruction sheet that indicates that you have to remove a few bits didn't help at all, but it turned out that I had to remove many pieces of fairing with loads of push rivets to get the bolts to go in and be able to fasten them. Then in putting back all the bits I'd removed, it was a challenge to remember which plastic fairing pins went were and and manoeuvring everything in to place. Finally got it done after about 2 hours, but what a PITA. Lost a few fairing pins in the process, and had to replace a couple, but still ended up with a few bits left over. I'm happy with the result but can't believe Yamaha couln't make it simpler! Vic

Hi Is it possible to buy just the coloured plastic panel for 2021 T9 pannier? If so does anyone have a link preferably for a UK based supplier. Vic
