  1. I traded in my 21 Tracer 9GT for the 24 gt+ and took a chance that my Givi luggage would fit. It fits perfect. The Rack for the 21-22 will fit the 24. I have the v56 Monokey top case. It will fit 2 full size modular helmets, it is huge. See photo. Good luck. I am sure you will have enough luggage space with the Givi.
  2. I got both recall letters yesterday. Of course, I just had my bike in for service last month and asked about the recall but just got quizzical looks and a shrug. Cmon, you can’t keep up with your own product? I’m sure it’s because they are waiting for the official word from Yamaha, so that they get paid.
  3. I got these for my 21 Tracer. Heli only had the risers for the 2019-20 900Gt at that time, but these fit perfect. HR09146. I did not have to change any cables. For the 21-22 9Gt they are selling an adapter. I did not need that as i just adjusted the brake elbow down. They did not come back enough for me. $ 80.00 includes shipping CONUS only.
  4. About 2 months ago. Steve took 10 days to build. He would remember me. I would call him. He is very good at communication.
  5. I tried the same thing you did to your seat but still had the tendency to slide forward. Steve fixed all that, no sliding forward, seat is taller for my long legs and is much more comfortable. Steve can put any color stitching that you desire.
  6. Sorry about the link, fixed it. Turnaround time about 1 week. Steve can do both driver and passenger seat. The Tracer driver seat cost $550.
  7. A shout out and thumbs up to Steve Going who reupholstered and modified my OEM seat. I originally was waiting for Russell day long to schedule me, but Steve had the time and was less expensive. Seat is one inch higher, which helps my 36 inch inseam, flatter- no more sliding into the tank, wider, and so much more comfortable. I took my bike for a 30 minute ride and noticed right away that I found the solution to the horrible OEM seat. Steve is a one man outfit, will text and call you about your exact needs, plus he's a super nice guy. Check out his website. stevegowing.com
  8. I would love and look forward to having it on a future purchase. Droning along the highways for 6-7 hours and having to turn off cruise due to slower traffic, then turning it back on for a couple of miles only to turn it on and off again is fatiguing physically and mentally. I want to enjoy the ride, the scenery, the experience. Some are saying ACC will cause driver distraction. What, I’m going to play video games? Start texting? Calling all my friends? Sorry, I’m old school, fully suited up, properly concentrating on my surroundings and hopefully one day enjoying a technology that lets me soak up the experience even better!
  9. Yes, I would ask Corbin to see if they can provide a higher seat.
  10. Took a 1600 mile trip to the Smokey Mountains and the Tail of the Dragon. First half of the trip used an Air Hawk along with the Corbin seat. 2 hours was enough time in the saddle before I had to start squirming. The Smokey Mountains and the return trip home used the Corbin alone. A better ride because I could now use the entire seat to slide up and back. The seat is hard and in about 2 1/2 hours it was time for relief. I did not wear bike shorts this trip, which I may try next trip. I am still going to order the Russell Day long. Overall the Corbin is much better than stock, I have it in the high setting with the Seat Slope MOD installed. So, no sliding forward into the tank. For me personally, I still need a taller seat as my 36 inch inseam causes knee issues.
  11. https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/tcx-hero-wp-boots?rrec=true Worn only twice. Very comfortable, waterproof. $175 plus shipping.
  12. I have a pair of the TCX Hero boots for sale. Size EU 46 US 12. $ 175 plus shipping. Only worn a couple of times. I went with the TCX Fuel bigger boots, which work better for me. I will post the sale in for sale items. https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/tcx-hero-wp-boots?rrec=true
  13. Corbin seat arrived, perfect condition, correct color. I had already put back the shims/spacers for added front uplift. I put the seat in the front upper slot and could see it was lined up with the keyed frame bracket, but would not attach. Thanks to TCLHB, I added 3 washers to the seat bracket and heard the click of attachment. The seat does move slightly side to side and as you can see in the pictures there is a gap especially up front, however I am not that picky and comfort is the goal here. My short test drive does confirm some of what TCLHB was saying. One difference, wearing jeans, I did not have the issue of sliding forward into the tank, which must be because of the added spacers. The seat is hard, harder than stock, but I expected this and will take time to break in. The seat does feel lower to me, maybe because of the scooped out area. The seating position does naturally bring you back further from the handlebars, into a neutral state, however I do have helibars risers which helps, and at times I found my arms locked, because it feels good to be back in the pocket of the seat. Otherwise this is my only complaint. I don't believe I can bring the handlebars back any further without cable extensions. Overall the Corbin is better than stock especially with the 3D spacer/shims, I did not slide forward at stops. I am taking a long trip next week and will report back further on the comfort level.
  14. Thank you, and thank you for the picture. I will let you and members know how it goes for me and then the test drive! I really hope it is more comfortable and helps my 6' 4' inch frame and 36 inch inseam be a bit taller seat.
  15. Looks great! Is that the Yamaha topbox? I got the Givi and after the same washer bracket issue, it now locks and comes off fine. Just to be clear- You added washers to the bracket on the frame that the key works off of, correct? Or are you talking about the bracket on the seat itself?
