  1. I experienced the wobble on the newer Tracer but was easily remedied by tuning the suspension and setting the correct sag to the rider's weight. Didn't have any problem after that, bike is stable even at 220+ kph (135+mph). Other changes aside from those mentioned above and the aesthetics is the narrower handle bar too. As for internal components, essentially the same as the FJ09.
  2. I encountered the same issue on mine (2019 Tracer 900 non-gt) at 10,000 kms (6,213 miles). Can I just replace the chain if my sprockets are still okay? or do you recommend to change all?
  3. So I've done my research and have narrowed down my selection to Metzeler Roadtec 01s, Michelin Road 5s, and Pirelli Angel GT IIs. The Roadtec being an older tire to the other 2, how does it compare? What would you guys recommend? How about a Pirelli Scorpion Trail II? I am currently just waiting to finish the stock Dunlops on my 2019 Tracer 900. Obviously not so impressed with its performance and I agree with most sentiments shared here in the forum. To give context for the tire recommendation I'm looking for, I live in a tropical country (Philippines) where it's usually hot and humid and is raining at least half the year and where roads are not always great (from good asphalt paved roads to uneven, pothole-ridden, debris-filled, cracked, concrete). I love the occasional mountain carving rides but mostly enjoy long distance riding (multi-day trips and whatnot). I barely use my bike to commute so that won't be a big factor for me and am mostly a weekend rider. Anyone care to chime in which tire would be among the 4 models I've mentioned with perfomance in mind for both wet and dry conditions with a decent amount of longevity?
  4. how are the Angel GT IIs in the rain?
  5. I just saw this on Facebook haha! Haven’t tried yet. I’m guessing the oil sump is sturdy enough 😅
  6. awesome! thanks so much! will keep you posted on the progress of this "minor upgrade"
  7. got this! I think I got it. Would anyone be able to verify these dimensions? please forgive my sketch haha actual photo of spacers for reference which I got off the MT09 forum.
  8. Does anyone know the exact specs/dimensions of the spacers? Will just have them made in a machine shop.
  9. Decided to go with the SW Motech as it has a cleaner look than the Givi mount. Quite happy with the quality. Will purchase the Givi adapter next and save up for a 30L Trekker top case. Hopefully it will be sturdy enough in the long run.
  10. Yeah, I saw that and was looking for it too. Sorry if I had to post this topic again 😅
  11. Has anyone done this on the GT? If so, how's your experience? I believe, you'd need four 11mm spacers for the calipers and longer bolts. Would anyone know the exact bolt specification needed? Planning to use sintered brake pads with bigger front rotors for better braking power.
  12. Any issues riding at speed and weight capacity? The site says that the limit is 22 lbs and that you can’t ride past 130kph 😅 I’m deciding if I should get this or the Givi one.
  13. Anybody here know where I could order 11mm spacers for the caliper? Also, what are the new bolt specs if you go with 320mm rotor upgrade?
