In Europe, the GT+ has been available as a '23. In Europe they will continue to have a choice between the 9GT and 9GT+. Only the GT+ model gets the new switchgear and 7" TFT in addition to the other tech goodies, the GT continues with the 2 TFT screens, scroll wheel and the standard switch gear, much like when Yamaha introduced the 900 and 900GT models had different speedometers. I'll be trading in my 900GT for the 9GT+. In Canada, we only have the GT+ model available and it is priced within $300 of the FJR! I used to have an FJR and don't want any bike that weighs more than 500 lbs. My dealer informed me that the bike has been received, but Yamaha's pannier supplier has had supply chain issues so the panniers will be shipped to the dealer when they become available. It's winter here, so not an issue. I won't be picking up the bike till spring.

The German prices posted above include 19% VAT, so we'll see what Yamaha US will price it at. If they offered a model without the adaptive cruise control, I'd opt for that to save $$. Hopefully, the 9GT also gets rid of the 2 TFT screens in favor of one large screen.

I had one. I didn't like using it, or storing it. And lifting the bike isn't as quick as using a paddock stand. p.s. And for someone like me who owns multiple bikes, you need a different ABBA stand adapter for each one. With the paddock stands, you just need bobbins on the swingarms..

I have one, it's pretty good but not quite as good.. I have another bike without a center stand so this will work on both.

I always struggled to turn my bike around in the garage.. I finally broke down and ordered these: https://www.dynamotousa.com/?utm_source=mailchimp&utm_campaign=02002ac2e1f0&utm_medium=ad&gclid=Cj0KCQiArt6PBhCoARIsAMF5wagyisYGGDWksoee5oAoi79c4dpbLjlLaNKmE4B8cCEEFV8-XQnZaicaAhMyEALw_wcB# Very well engineered and a high quality product. Now I can spin the bike around with ease..

Welcome to the forum! The bike has the right balance of comfort, power and weight. Please post a pic of your bike if you can.

@Rovari @dazzler24 Have you installed the TPMS on the OEM rubber tire valve stems or have you replaced them with metal ones? Thanks.

Mine came in the bag with the extra key.. What's its purpose?

Some motorcycles' vibrations are known to kill the image stabilization of some mobile phones from Apple to Android. What works for me is the Quad Lock vibrations damper, with a Quad Lock case and rain cover. No issues at all in the rain, as I also prefer using navigation apps such as Waze with real time traffic updates than using my Garmin GPS.

I could live with the daytime running lights and the headlights where they are, but the 2 protruding air intake snorkles make the front end look even more disjointed. I like to get a new bike every couple of years and would have traded my 19GT for this one, not that I ever thought my 19GT was a great looking bike, but if this is the look of the new GT, I'll have to see it in the flesh but I'm not optimistic I'll like it any better.

I had a `19 Vstrom 650 XT, bought it new and sold it after 600 miles.. It a competent bike but I wanted more power. I'm very satisfied with my 900GT. I replaced the footpegs before I even rode it, with FJR cloned copies off Amazon for $10. No buzziness in the footpegs at all. If you can ride one, try it..

Woody's Wheel Works in the Denver, CO area will repair the wheel as good as new.

This is a better design than the original. Thanks for sharing your pics 👍

that's what I did after my last ride.. tomorrow I'll find it if it holds or moves.. The mirror moves at high speeds (140 - 150 km/h (90/95 mph) on short bursts when passing. Hopefully it won't move now.

that's just it, there aren't 2 nuts! There's only one, hence our dilemma. Virtually all other bikes I've had with mirrors attached to the handlebars have 2 nuts, one tightens against the other and the mirror doesn't move.
