+1 to that. I sincerely hope I can simply swap my current MRA Vario from my current 2018 to a new GT+. 

Managed to obtain some information on that. Good news! It fits!

CTTO for the picture.

Anyone have any idea if any of the older screens fit the GT+?

There is not much information on this AFAIK.

Any inputs will be appreciated as from what i understand, the adjustor is slightly taller due to the larger TFT screen on the GT+

I have ASV levers installed without any issues with the CC

Has anyone installed short levers that will also operate the cruise control switch?

I also have issues with the RHS of the mirrors.

I also locktite my RHS mirrors and they seem to be good for now.

Btw there seems to be a revision on the mirrors.

I broke my LHS mirrors and got them replaced and noticed the difference.

I noticed them stems are thicker now

The part where it screw in also seems to be chunkier now as well.

Hope this helps.

Update: It seems like the mirrors are also found on the Latest T9GT too.

I have the aukey CC-T8. It is very tight and stays in place. Plus it fast charges my Samsung Note 20 Ultra and does not blow the 2A fuse if u only use 1 of the USB port at anyone time.

I have the original Neotec. Anybody who's owned both Neotec versions, is the Neotec II worth the extra $$$ over the Neotec I?

I have both.

the neotec 2 is 100% worth the extra $ over the neotec 1.

i do believe the givi ones are out rn

I ran through a set of T32's.  They performed fine, where good in the rain, and lots cheaper than the Road 5's I normally run, but I found they wore quite badly, got much less mileage out of them than Road 5's as while tread depth wasn't used up, they squared off much faster on top (lots of long, straight roads to get to windy roads from here), and the sides cupped really badly.   Probably my fault, really, just pushing them harder than they're really intended to be pushed.  I'll go back to Road 5's, but the T32's are not a bad tire at all, and are a pretty good deal.

The dual compound R5's resist squaring better, and their tread profile tends to hold up to really aggressive riding better.   But, you pay for it: they're significantly more expensive.  If you can get good mileage out of the T32's, they're a damn good buy.

May i check what tire pressures you normally run?

Currently on a set of RD5GTs. Considering the T32s next.

Thanks!

Yes it is a tad taller.

I've had both Bagster Bultex and Yamaha comfort.

Bagster ready lux was off chrome burner. It was too soft. My butt could constantly feel the seat pan.

The Yamaha comfort was abit too hard and tall for my liking. But the material that was used offers huge amounts of grip as compared to the original seat.

For reference, i'm 5 7 and have a 32" inseam.

Eventually I sold both and reverted back to the original.

YMMV. Hope this helps.

I personally want a Tracer 7 GT with cruise control state-side; it's probably my favorite looking bike at the moment and I love the sound of a piped CP2. I'd buy it day 1.

That's why we're all here isn't it? The FJ/Tracer 9 series are the only "sport touring" bikes under 500lbs and still over 100HP and has a full electronics suite available; though theoretically you can slap bags on any sport bike for touring and deal with the shitty mpg/range *cough* MT10 *cough*.

Its called "Empty tank" for a reason 😆

Up shift or downshift? Which year?

I too experience it sometimes when up shifting into a false natural from gear 5-6.

Got this off the FZ09 forum. Hope this helps.

Left old

Right new

I've not had issues in the 2 years i had with the bike.

The bike is used almost daily and i have almost 41000 kms on the clock

I have a Givi 52L rear top case with FJR panniers.

Hope this helps.

Yes This is the givi M8 baseplate. it will fit the tracer with the correct rack.

It looks like you have an FJ.  Do you know if the mounts are the same for the Tracer?

ASV levers.

Shorty in the summer on the madstad mount, 26" in the winter

Did u drill holes for the puig to fit on the stad bracket?

it'll make your butt fat! Most importantly, your butt may not smoothly follow after your handle bars squeeze through!

 

 

The fjr panniers are not much wider than the city panniers.

surprisingly they are still a very easy to squeeze through as long as the handlebars clear.

The dirty portion is on the underside of the TBs

Very nice.

I replicated something like that for my boxes as well. 😆

Before I order...trying to confirm this seat will work with my 2020 GT...I am going to assume yes but it says 2018/2019 in the description.  Wish I could find it in all black with black welts.  Not sure this red matches up with the 2020 metallic red.  Any input would be great!

Those look great.  Did you add the reflective tape?

Thanks!

Yes i added the reflective tapes myself when i was bored of how plain the lids looked. 😄

I do not think they will fit.

Yes get the FJR panniers. I am on a set of those and they should have been the panniers that came with the bike stock. They are amazing!

Well, I am trying to make good use of the OEM panniers as well. I do not want to have a set of brackets for holding aftermarket panniers because it won't allow me to use the smaller ones. I think the only option is to get some FJR panniers. It will be the wrong colour but that doesn't really matter. Perhaps I could do a vinyl wrap anyway

They mention a "Lites" version is available but don't say what it is... any idea?

Here u go. They are really the best. I went through a set at around 30000 kms.

Am on my 2nd set now. Very comfortable!

idk about the fork springs, but the length of the external fork is the same. Sorry can't be of much help.
