What did you do to your FJ-tracer-gt today?

I can see Insta360 oneX on handle guard... Do you have any vids uploaded on YouTube? I'm quite interested in that camera, I wonder how that thing/position would be taken. -

Thanks... uh well, I had a short ride this morning for a test. It seemed Okay for outward trip, but when I returned home... the extension was caught by a tire. 180km/h speed or air current may have caught the extension. Maybe I extended its length too much. I'll try 2/3 extending next time. -

OK, here's what I did today. I used EVA foam (a plastic or a cellular foam, what ever you call, its a soft foam 3mm thick) in order to fit the extension to the curve of rear fender. Costs about $2.50, took me approx 15min lol. 1. Black square sheet is the plastic foam. (t=3mm) 2. traced rear fender edge with a pen and cut out from cardboard paper. 3. also traced and cut out from the plastic foam. 4. attached with adhesive tape which I had for home use, it'll probably fly away in a certain speed... even if I put a weight on it to leave it for a day. -

Took off my rear mud guard to see if I could extend length for reducing splash when rain. I envy the shape of MT-09 rear mud guard which shape is quite straight.... -

That's Yamaha TT-250R Raid. It's a dirt bike TT-250R derivative, kind of light weight tourer/adventure bike made in 1995. -

Japanese sellers are mostly not adopted to international shipping due to language problem. 1/3 shipping is incredible. But recent virus issue made air freight expensive due to decreasing flights. -

Yes it worked fine. I had panniers so there are some scratches on it, and handle guard also have scars on the edge... -

Well, I took this photo from upper angle, so you might feel odd. This is Daytona engine guard, the brand you might not see in overseas. There's no Tracer photo on the Daytona website, borrowed photos are XSR900 and MT-09, though its the same guard so you can see how it fits and relation to the footpeg/rear brake. -

Two sons helped me as a human jack stand to install long thread bolt in order to attach an engine guard to my bike. -

Unfortunately it seems there's no other language version. Manual is also written in Japanese only. I wonder if they (Mitsuba) release these in overseas market... I recognize they are global company, quite famous among automotive oem industry. Is there any drive/motorcycle recorders in your market? -

Thank you. It's great to communicate with people in overseas thru common interest. Camera is Mitsuba "EDR-21", I'll post the link below. Sorry seems web page is Japanese only. https://www.mskw.co.jp/motorcycle/edr/EDR-21 One camera is on forward direction, close to the horn. Rear view camera is on above of the license plate. -

For Japanese market, it’s an option. But we can’t afford painted panniers like the one you have in overseas. However GT price setting is cheaper due to w/o panniers, so it’s 1.2 mil JPY w/ tax, about 11.1k USD. -

Finally picked up my ride on Sunday, while riding back home I took a pic with my old TT-250R Raid. Did you guys know that JDM Tracer 900 GT does not come with side panniers? I didn't even know that GT panniers are painted with same body color in overseas!!! There is no colored panniers on a option catalog... -
