I have a GT-air (1); there is now the 2. I personally love my Shoei. Do you have the pinlock insert inserted @limpy88

I don't think this is true anymore. BMW bikes nowaday have an array of add-ons that can be added to the bike and plugged into the standard electronics to make them work seamlessly

I was worried the lower part of the bar closest to the lower mounting screw would touch before the foot pegs would; thus causing you to crash. Am not sure if this would intact be the case though

I have the sw-motech crash pads. I personally opted for these as i really don't like the look of crash bars, and, was worried about loss of ground clearance when cornering during spirited riding. I also felt that given the height and weight of the bike i wouldn't feel comfortable with the bike falling on a single point (crash bobbin) The Sw-motech's look very nice but i am not sure they would actually hit the ground and leave enough space to stop the engine guards sustaining damage. The T-rex ones looked nice but at the time t-rex couldn't guarantee they would fit the GT and it was too expensive a risk to take with shipping and tax. Regarding the sw-motech crash bar; be warned that someone on here had posted that when their bike fell over it still sustained damage to the lower casings

Did you end up dragging the centre stand, or, did you remove that too? I ride right to the edge of the tyre and would be scared to remove the feelers as it gives me warning that i am about to scrape the centre stand (which is obviously a concern). Without the feelers I would be fearing over running the edge of the tyre, or, having the centre stand dig in the ground and lift the rear wheel off the ground

Suspension is stock but adjusted so that it is on the hard side. I am a heavy rider at 90kg but i find clearance to be less than that on my old naked. Regularly scrape foot pegs (and touch the centre stand)

The bike still gets a little too light at the front at 180+ for my liking but it is an amazing bike and you are going to love the power delivery. My biggest gripe with the GT is there isn't a lot of ground clearance and it doesn't take much lean to scrape the pegs and centre stand

It won't clear GT panniers for sure! Tail Tidy Fender Eliminator License Plate For YAMAHA Tracer/GT 900 2018-2020 ... This does and i have it on my GT

@wordsmith All the best for the future! Your witty writing will be missed

Tail Tidy Fender Eliminator License Plate For YAMAHA Tracer/GT 900 2018-2020 F unction:Replace the original rear fender. YAMAHA Tracer/GT 900... Am running this on my GT at a quarter of the price of a R&G one

I actually find b uses more fuel than A. Living in Malta we don't have motorways and traffic is bumper to bumper.

UK had also listed prices as starting £9,500 for the XR. The TracerGT sits around £10.500.

My guess would just be a weak battery. I don't think fuel is an issue. Have you tried charging the battery? Is it a case of after a long ride it starts up fine but then if you stop and start it begins to suffer. If so it could be because the battery is discharging a little with every start. Any problems whilst you ride it?

Have you seen the updated Tracer 700? It seems the 900 is staying the same though

@MartyP - Givi crash bars use all 3 engine mounts

Check www.GBracing.eu, www.rg-racing.com, and www.sw-Motech.com as they all have covers for them.

Loyal customers are not made earned because you buy something and it never had an issue, but, by the way you handle problems when they arise.

Mine does this too and after a few months it finally clicked to me why. The right hand is your gas hand so your hand is constantly on the grip and you are holding it tightly. The left hand is your clutch hand so you constantly remove your hand from the grip to relax, or, adjust your helmet, etc. If you engage cruise control and make a point to hold the handlebar tight with your lefthand whilst keeping a loose grip with your right and constantly removing your right hand you would see the same situation in reverse

The manual says 150nm not 150 fps. And yes, tightening the axle nut can indeed influence alignment as it can pull the axle back slightly.

The Tracer screen is the single biggest gripe on this forum. It is absolutely useless and since it directs wind directly on to the visor opening, you obviously get water entering it. The only way to completely eliminate it is by using a shower door for a screen.

@dazzler24 - Yes they are. Thank you!!!!!

Thanks @Gundarku!!

Cheers guys, I got an after market tail tidy do am trying to avoid butchering the existing wire. The aftermarket number plate light came with bullet connectors so am trying to find the plug instead of butchering the wire on the oem one. @piotrek It's basically the other side of the 2nd link in your post ( the connectors of the number plate and indicators are inverted on the harness to stop you connecting the wrong wire by accident)

Hey all, Does anyone know the official name of the plug for the number plate wire please? Regards, Chris

The back of the pannier is identical to the GT. The lid of the fjr panniers are just round giving them the much needed extra space
