Ohlins makes a shock for the Tracer GT that has remote preload adjustment. YA 537 I have this shock on my 2019 TracerGT and it works really well Street S46 Shock (YA 537) | Öhlins USA ...

I recently received my Adcox seat for my 2019 Tracer GT and I quite happy with it. I have used Sargent seats on several bikes and was going to get one for the Tracer, however their Tracer GT seats were FUBAR. At first I thought I'd have to use the Adcox seat in the low position, but found I can still get my feet on the ground with the seat in the high position so that's how I use it. The seat is very comfortable. I was concerned about the wings interfering with my hanging off riding style but have adapted. I can feel the wings while hanging off but it's minimal. Fortunately I still have the original OEM seat so I can install it if I want to do aggressive riding. Overall I like and highly recommend the Terry Adcox modified seat. I hadn't heard of the wings collapsing but I don't have many miles on the seat to comment. For normal riding the seat is very comfortable.

That's great. Maybe that's the fix they told me they were working on and I'll be able to get the Pyramid 072447M rear hugger soon.

I was having a problem attaching the EVO Engage to my Tacer GT also. So this suggestion of adding the drilling template was a great idea except I know longer had the template. So I made a spacer using a piece of cardboard (non corrugated) and it did the job. Then I started thinking that it would be a mess if the cardboard got wet. So I took an empty plastic gallon jug that had thin flat sides and made spacer from it. It's works great. Thanks for this suggestion to make a spacer so the tank bag is easier to install!

Why bother with a slip on if your going to restrict the exhaust flow with a DB killer

If you do contact Pyramid with your problem please post up results or PM me as I considering the 072447M rear hugger once they have their rework done!

I bought a used front and rear seat from a member that had bought a Sargent seat I sent the front seat to Terry Adcox to be rebuilt. He matched the seat cover to be the same as the rear. It's a very comfortable seat and if I want to ride more spirited and hang off the bike I just put the original seat back on. It's great to have a choice. I should add that originally I was contemplating a Sargent seat for the Tracer. However Sargent totally messed up their new Tracer GT seat by starting with a seat pan they had for an older MT09 and it did not fit properly. I had Sargent seats on several bike before the Tracer and they were nice. But their Tracer GT seat was FUBAR

Here's the e-mail reply I received from Pyramid on August 19, 2020 Hi Doug, Yes we have since bought our own Tracer in to complete the fix for this part (as it proved more tricky than we'd expected) and we are close to having a solution. We hope to have it sorted and back on the market within the next 4 weeks - you will see it appear back on our website as soon as it's ready 👍 Regards Adam Pyramid On Wed, Aug 19 2020, at 03:45 PM, Pyramid Support <2e10pgqjl3mol4j3@emails.gorgias.com>

2019 Tracer GT here. Easy enough to do a wheelie. However I prefer to keep both wheels on the ground. Save my wheelies for off-road riding on a dirt bike not on the Tracer.

I don't live in Georgia, but close. Asheville NC area. I do ride some in northern Georgia both on the curvey roads and also off-road. There's some good off-road in northern GA. I mean northern. We usually ride off-road out of Dillard GA For road riding we'll get as far south as Helen and Suches. Lot's of interesting roads in north Georgia such as Hwy 28 starting in SC through GA and into NC.

I usually get about 40 to 45 mpg unless I'm riding on a main highway or Interstate (which I seldom do).

The Pyramid 072447M rear hugger is a replacement for the OEM that extends the length of the original hugger by 6 inches (152mm). The 072446 hugger extension is 5 inches (130mm) longer. So the 072447M rear hugger replacement offers more protection.

Maybe you just need new brake pads. I you do decide to replace them make sure you condition the rotors by lightly sanding with Scotch Brite (or similar) pads so the new pads will seat in properly.

Glad you're OK and the bike received no damage. I'm very familiar with the route you took as I live in the area. When you're up this way and want some tips for great roads to ride send me a PM

I replace the OEM screen with an MRA screen that's about the same height as the OEM. I also bought the MRA sport screen that I use in the hot summer months. This combination works for me!

MotoMachines in Virginia sells Pyramid products There is a replacement hugger available for the Tracer GT Pyramid Plastics Rear Hugger Extension Yamaha Tracer 900 & GT Matte Black ... I've had on on order however there was a problem with a few units breaking at the attaching point. I contacted Pyramid and they told me this; Yes we have since bought our own Tracer in to complete the fix for this part (as it proved more tricky than we'd expected) and we are close to having a solution.

I had never heard of this process. Sounds interesting. I'll have to look into it.

I was concerned about dragging the center-stand also. So I ground about half of the rubber stop away. With the shorter stop the center-stand does not interfere with the exhaust. I also have a riding style from doing track days where I hang off a bit and this keeps the bike a little more upright. The real fix was updating to Ohlins suspension with the correct spring weight.

I've had my GT since last September. I came of a Africa Twin and a 98 VFR. I think the Yamaha is a great bike for touring. I've changed the screen to an MRA screen and now have a Terry Adcox seat. Also have changed the suspension both ends to Ohlins. It took me a while to get used to the situp riding style after the VFR but it's starting to work for me. Never thought much about cruise control and don't ride many places where I can use it but it's great when I can. The CP3 engine is a gem. Overall it's a great touring bike!

I bought my 2019 Tracer GT with a1,000 miles on it from a Yamaha rep in Asheville NC Don't know how he rode it but I ride fairly aggressive in the mountains The D222 tires were toast at 3,900 miles I'm used to good performance tires so they were replaced with Michelin PR5's that feel a lot more confidence inspiring All in all the OEM tires were not too bad!
