  1. I noticed on the yamaha website, they've also added in a $100 freight surcharge at the bottom of the page. I'm actually happy they're keeping the same colors, I quite like the silver blue combo I've asked my dealer to contact me when they get one in as this is going to be my next bike.
  2. this is odd, the price is the same it was for 2021 (I think 22 is $100 more)and I think it's essentially unchanged from the 21 model. This sounds more like talking about the launch of the tracer 9gt for 21 model year.
  3. the other option would be to consider a flip up helmet like schuberth or similar. .
  4. different types of nasal cannulas out there. Do you wear the cannula with tube going over your ears and gather in front at your adams apple? Some cannulas have bigger ports (ie the prongs that go into the nose). and also if you're using an oxygen concentrator it might be tough. If your helmet has removeable cheekpieces you could try that. It's kind of like with wearing glasses, and you may have to reposition the nasal prongs once you have the helmet in place. I've never done this, but I'm a nurse and so I'm familiar with the equipment.
  5. I think the biggest thing for me on the 21-22 is the steel rear subframe which at least according to articles enables you to carry more on the bike.
  6. wonder when they'll get to dealers, my dealer has no idea. I'm between a ktm 890 adventure and the tracer 9 I notice they also added $100 "freight surcharge" effective for MY 22 .
  7. will this be a 2022 or left over? When is it expected? My dealer wasn't even remotely interested in getting me a leftover 21 since they didn't have one in stock.
  8. on paper, I still have to say, the tracer 9 gt still gets the nod for me, and hope to get a 22 model early next year. My local dealer didn't seem remotely interested in trying to get me a 21.
  9. what's the wet weight of the tracer 9 gt. I could only find a weight of 485 listed without saddlebags. I'm guessing wet weight is in the 500 range?
  10. yep early morning midweek and it's pretty free of traffic. BTW, this guy is a local legend on riding the gap on a wing quickly. For a time he had a video service where he'd follow sport bikes and film them.
  11. this is good to see, I'm going to wait til early next year to buy. My local dealer didn't seem interested in trying to get a 21 for me. It's odd in the article they make it sound like the 22 is new design when the 21 brought in the steel subframe, upgraded engine, increased price etc.
  12. The tracer has a service due at 600 and 1000 miles? That seems crazy. I'm actually looking at getting a tracer for my next bike, interestingly, my local dealer says they can't get me one now and I'll have to wait for the 22s.
