Welcome Mike, Great choice. I'm sure your bike will fulfill all your motorcycling needs. Light, comfy, good looking and reliable. Enjoy.

Fair point, but imo it's just something else to go wrong. Too many new bikes have too many gizmos. Post warranty ownership will become very expensive.

Had them on previous bike, would turn off too early. No good. Turn them off yourself. Twice if you want.

I wasn't happy charging from the bikes socket on the go so use a battery bank from tank bag.

Wonder what it looks like without the mudguard.??? -
I use top left handlebar clamp bolt, 2 or 3 washers so ball is raised allowing better movement. Ultimate addons s9 case. Detach phone in seconds for taking photos, sat nav (Waze) etc. I also got the 3 inch extension but don't use it, and is a pain in the arse to use, bolt too short and fall's apart. Good kit and recommended on here.

Summer screen / winter screen. -
I'm sticking with standard, nice and quiet at home on idle but sings a great tune when ringing it's neck out and about. Bw sounds good. Nice job.

Had a run down the Snake pass, Peak district via Jodrell bank today cool morning but the heated grips saved the day. Big telescope at Jodrell monitoring our alien friends, no, not the politicians. 190 m ish. Lay by sandwiches lovely day.

Not new but finally an owner!
Dodgy Knees replied to iamthedruman's topic in New Member Introductions
Two very different bikes...I had a Ully and yes, very tall, one foot down for me 5.10. Good fun but a bit too much character for me, stranded on the side of the road once too often. The Tracer is a modern reliable bike that can be relied on. Far superior in all areas, except maybe character. 🤔🤔 -
Cheap garage flooring
Dodgy Knees replied to Dodgy Knees's topic in FJ-09 Tracer 900 Pics and Videos
No, floors solid but paint peeling. Good cheap fix. Warmer and softer than concrete. -

Corroded exhaust header clamps
Dodgy Knees replied to v1nn1e's topic in FJ-09 Known issues and solutions
I've been using acf50 for a few years now, some say apply 2 or 3 time's a year, others say after every wash, preventing rust starting and killing any already there. However, I do wonder if hot engines and header's are really worth it, as it all seems to burn off on start up. Maybe if storing for winter or laying up for a while might make better sense. My bikes only got 1200 miles on it and the downpipes already look a mess. I do like the look when applied, even on plastics, but hot bits, I'm not too sure....or am I doing something wrong.??? Front fender extender seems to do f- - k all to help either. Loving the bike tho. -

I'd have the dealer look at it, for peace of mind.
