    Hello, does anyone have an experience with Tracer on gravel road or very light offload?  Thanks

    Some really good advises posted by members. let the bike front end do what it wants, grips on handle bar should be light. constant throttle open helps weight shift to the rear, stand of pegs gives better control overall, look ahead not down. This bike is not meant to be off road (heavy, less ground clearance, small front wheel) but it can handle if you encounter one by surprised. Check out the video I recorded.

     

  2. Noticed same white background with red Yamaha logo on my Tracer. It happen randomly and appear to happen few time in some days and no show for weeks/month. Don't really know the reason. I noticed it appears more frequent when ambient temperature is hot.

    does anybody know what kind of plug this white one that already is connected? The right one wasn't so hard to find, but a want a loose left white connector to connect some wires nicely.

     

     

    Black and white which is also connected to cigarette lighter is this one:

    Fitted to most Ténéré/MT/Tracer/R6 models. This is the un-sealed square...

    and the grey (similar connector is used for heated seat) is this one:

    Find many great new & used options and get the best deals for Yamaha DC...

  4. I was able to install engine guard with little modification. The bolt came with the kit was little too long. Have to cut the bolt to right size, add few thread and it’s installed like breeze. 

    Engine guard looks really nice on GT. Added few post install pictures. 

    Yesterday I installed same engine guard on my friend’s Tracer GT that he ordered from same source as mine and it was installed right at first time (no modification needed). I assumed the one I got was not properly QC 🥴

    Cheers!

  5. Hey guys,

    2019 Tracer GT, 5000KM still on factory tires. Correct sag has setup for my 200lb weight. Tire pressure is F33/R36 PSI. Givi v47 top box and side cases were installed. MRA X-Creen Touring Clamp-On Windscreen Spoiler was installed on OEM screen (I took it off today as it was useless).

    I noticed wobble when decel and both hands off the bars. I was fixing my gloves liner, mostly I ride with both hands on the bars. 

    As suggested I will check steering head bearing. Before that I will ride without any luggage install on the bike and see if this will fix. If it does then I think it might required stiffer springs. 

    Tires and wheel are in good shape.

    In need of replacing OEM seat, thinking about Yamaha comfort seat, any other suggestions for 200lb rider? Planning a 9000km ride next month and OEM seat is painful after 90 min. 

  6. I was using Scorpion  EXO-R2000. Found it really good, reasonable cost with features of expensive gear. Had a low side, helmet hold it really well. 

    I was sold on Scorpion and got modular EXO-GT920 for street riding. Using it about a year now so far no major complaint. Good air circulation, soft padding, speakers cutout, sun visor, anti fog visor, glasses cutout. Feel cheap material, modular locking is clumsy (stop working after dust [cold desseet] ride, washed helmet shell that fix the issue)

  7. Thx @SMTM50  

    @Cruizin got it from eBay. Speedo Angels. Link is in video discription. I do not affiliate with them in any ways. My review is based on my experience and liking. Wasn’t paid by anyone 😕

    @betoney my experience is totally different. I started with anti glair and since then I’m using same one (over 6 months). No problem noticed as you mentioned.
