Torque Specs and Aftermarket Parts
Your_Boy_Yuriy replied to jthayer09's topic in Tracer 900 GT Discussions
If all else fails, just remember never exceed the maximum torque for bolt/screw size. You can just google search "standard torque chart metric" for reference. -
I would have love to join. However, I'll be running a half marathon in Champaign-Urbana IL

Yamaha rear rack and 39L Top Box installed.
Your_Boy_Yuriy replied to Butrzrulz's topic in FJ-09 Parts and Accessory reviews
I really like how the top case and rear rack has a nice clean OEM look. Plus, you can also order a custom lock for the top case to match your bike ignition key. So you don't need to have two different keys. With a 50L top case you can fit two helmets though -
FJ-09 questions, potential new owner
Your_Boy_Yuriy replied to themyst's topic in FJ-09 Tracer 900 General Discussions
Well, I actually have a 2020 tracer 900 GT. In stock form I did not get any speed wobble at 130 MPH absolutely no wind or any other cars around. Then I installed a madstad windshield and I get speed wobbles around 110ish MPH with little to no wind and no cars around. However, on the highway around 80 MPH semi's really upset the bike with my madstad windshield also my side and top cases are installed. However, if remove my top case, sides cases, and windshield then the bike is fine at high speeds (130MPH). And much more lively. Just remember... there's a speed limit. -
FYI, I highly recommend checking your valve clearances sooner. Most people have tight valves. Yamaha recommends the maintenance at 26K miles I believe, check it sooner, like 20K Miles.

I personally don’t adjust anything when going off-road because it’s so spontaneous. it be really hard pumping up the tires in middle of nowhere. different tires will definitely help. My bike is literally 99.5 percent of the time on pavement . The more you try to make the bike more like a dual sport the worst it will handle on the curves. it all depends on your riding style.

Bike handles good with roads with light gravel like the pictures above. can easily handle 20 mph cruising and top speed 40ish before something sketchy happens. Handles pretty well is hand sand…lol lastly with small rocks you just have to be more careful. I was more afraid of bottoming out. Go slower and there’s less chance of bottoming out the shocks and the oil pan. Which I did both before.

Let's See Those Chicken Strips
Your_Boy_Yuriy replied to Your_Boy_Yuriy's topic in Tracer 900 GT Discussions
Same here I have been starting to scape my pegs too... usually I wear boots that stick out a little further then the pegs so I have to tuck me my feet in more. I never really thought I would be scraping the pegs on my tracer. -
Haha Oswego is now completely different. You won't recognized it anymore all the corn fields are now gone.

Being paranoid on the long trip sucks... happens to me all the time. Sounds like it has nothing to with your coolant. You can check to see if you have any stiff links in the chain. That makes a lot of noise. Chains usually last roughly 20K miles. Obviously some can go out earlier and some can get more miles. To me this sounds like it might be your issue. If you think it’s running on two cylinders pour some water on each header and check the consistency of the steam. Might have an intermediate spark plug failure... but I doubt that. just remember if it doesn’t ride the same as before then somethings wrong. Best of luck and don’t get too paranoid.

I think I have a short.
Your_Boy_Yuriy replied to Mr.Jeem's topic in FJ-09 Known issues and solutions
So I’m hoping that you picked up this bike with a discount since it had the battery in reverse? -
Hello there, That's the first I ever heard of a stock exhaust being too loud. If your bike isn't brand new with zero miles maybe the previous owner swapped out the stock exhaust with a aftermarket one? I personally don't know of a aftermarket exhaust that will reduce the noise. Worst case scenario shove some stainless steel wool into the exhaust... lol just saying
