It definitely rewarded finessed throttle input but it didn't feel excessive.

Hello The fueling on the DL1000 was awful at low throttle. I got used to it but it was bad. Engine braking was very strong which was great most of the time but not great in combination witht the low throttle fueling. That said, it was very torquey low/mid when pushing, but ran out of puff toward the top. The engine felt very happy at motorway speeds although the bike felt quite loose at the front over 90. The DL1000 engine has a high C of G which was most noticable pushing it around. The weight on the Tracer seems much lower down and pushing it about is much more confidence inspiring. In comparison the Tracer is pretty much how I imagined a triple to be. It has much better but not perfect fueling when held at low throttle, less but enough torque low down, a 'lol' very usable power band, but feels a tad vibey. I think Im still getting used to the triple to be honest. I've only had twos and fours before. Cheers!

Hello! I have a new to me Tracer 900 2019 which replaces my old 2007 DL100 V-Strom GT Its the black with blue wheels colours and is stock other than OEM heated grips, and its great. Feels as light as a push bike compared to the old elephant. I work in London and have a 40 mile e/w commute including a fair bit of motorway. Its great to see such a comprehensive source of info and helpful folk and i look forward to asking many questions Cheers!
