  1. I have changed windshield to Ermax high protection and color light black. I don't have problem with the standard screen but this looks much nicer, both design and color. It's around 40 mm shorter than standard screen. Personally I'm 1.83 centimeters tall.
    It doens't make a huge difference compare to standard, perhaps less turbulence in normal speed. At higher speed there is still wind noise. I doubt you can eleminate that totally with any windscreen so who cares. Drive a car if you don't like wind.

    Full turning circle works.

    My last mod is more comfortable seat. Still looking.

    @nick@forceberg.netEazi Grip also came out with a version. It's only 4 pieces, but I'm not sure about them. I know the Speedo Angels stuff is quality and they stand behind their products. They did say to make sure you use the wet install process for this one.

    I have Eazi grip. Works with water and soap which is included. Its a bit tricky to get in place. The top was the hardest part with the small inlays. I have few bubbles there.

    Finally picked mine up 2 days ago! It's soooo freaking awesome! 🔥🤘 this is completely a different bike compared to the Tracer 900. And the new gauges are really easy to read and looks great on this bike.

    Welcome to the club!

    I have done 300 swedish mil so far. I like the bike a lot but I will wait for a more comfortable seat. Hopefully Sargent will have one available for 2021 Tracer.
    I used to have Sargent seat on my MT09 which was much better than stock. Other than that I like the new Tracer, now my girlfriend can come with me for longer trips 😁

    Zafiro,

    is that stock seats or custom?  From some angles, it looks like it is custom.  That is a beautiful red.  Now, I am glad that I am getting the red.

    Stock.
    With some nice red stitches and Alcantara material. If you choose Yamaha Icon Performance you get blue stitches.
    Standard tracer 9 comes with leather seat but somehow my butt felt more comfortable with Alcantara.

  5. I like the fuel tank. So much more miles than my old MT09. Average of 4.1km/100 during normal riding. Better than my old bike.

    Regarding the gauges, feels like someone is watching me all the time :D

  6. Driven the Tracer 9 for several hours now its frustrating not to go above 5300 rpm. Still in the break-in. When I return my loaner to the dealer next driver doesn't need to care about rpm.

    The top of the foot peg is made of rubber which is comfortable for my feet but the ones for the rear passenger is the same as my old MT09. Why? looks wrong and cheap. Need to be replaced ASAP. But me knees doesn't have the same angle as my MT09 which is good for longer trips.

    Preparing for another trip with two friends later today (Triumph Tiger, BMW GS1250).

    I've visited Sweden a number of times. Wonderful place, but unfortunately I don't know the language. Translation?

    Are you saying the Swedes are lucky ducks getting the GT9 before the rest of us?

    If so, I think it's time I re-visited my local dealer to get an update.

    We are famous for Volvo, IKEA, meatballs and beautiful women ;)

    He asked me if I was from sweden and he told me where he is from and when his bike is delivered :)

    Svensk? Var i Sverige och vilken dealer? Väntar på min icon performance via Carlbarks i Kumla. Lev 7 juni sägs det.

     

    Sorry for Swedish 😇

    Skåne, Yamaha Helsingborg.

    Skåne is in southern sweden if anyone cares :)

  9. My own GT been delayed 3 times so my dealer have given this Tracer 9 until my own arrives.
    Zero miles on the speedo. Only driven it for an hour so far but it's a nice bike. Easy to drive and comfortable. I didn't feel the throttle to be twitchy. So I don't know what the fuss is about. The display I think I need to read the manual before I change any settings :)

    The new Tracer9 looks very good and I prefer it to the old one. I thought this matte military green would be awful but I liked it. So did my neighbours. I ordered the red color for my own, hopefully it arrives 25th may.

  10. My GT was suppose to come in march but delayed twice, new time is 25th May. But my dealer promise me to loan a bike from them for free until mine arrives.
    I'm having the new Tracer9 (non GT version). Getting the bike next week.

  11. Left my MT09 to my dealer for sale yesterday. Now I have to wait 4 months before my new ducati red Tracer 9 arrives. Looking forward to this. Seen all the pics and videos and I really like how it looks. I heard the rumours in September that the 2021 version would be a big update so I decided to wait. I think I did the right choice.

  12. Greetings from Europe, Sweden (land of IKEA and Volvo).

    I own 2016 Yamaha MT-09, today I put an order on a red Tracer 9 GT. Delivery in March. I like the design and the new updates.

    I can confirm there is both Tracer 9 (black forks) and 9 GT (golden forks) available for Sweden.
