magnatic Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 I joined last month to learn more about the GT and the more I read, the more I liked so I just pulled the trigger on a black one today. I'll take delivery of it in the spring. I've been on a Goldwing for the last 11 years so this will be a fun change of ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JL3 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I also just bought the 900 GT... let me know what upgrades you are considering. I have friends moving down there next December and I hope to ride down and visit. Bring on the spring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gv550 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I traded a 900 lb Kawasaki Voyager for my GT, quite a change for sure! More power and a lot less weight = fun, fun, fun. 2019 Tracer GT, Ontario, Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnatic Posted January 10, 2019 Author Share Posted January 10, 2019 I just came back from picking up a Blaster-X Integrated LED Tail Light that I had shipped to my UPS box in Buffalo. I've also bought some swingarm spools, 2 Pitbull pit stands ( at the Toronto bike show last weekend), side bag liners and FJR footpegs. I have an R&G side stand foot enlarger on order and I'm going to order the tank protection film from TankSlapper in a few minutes. I've dropped a lot of money considering I don't pick up the bike until March Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been a fan of V-twins but I can see how some like them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gv550 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 My Voyager was a 2009, first year for the 1700 motor. It was (and still is) a very good bike, had 680,000 kms on it when traded and the new owner has added another 10k without issue. That's six hundred and eighty thousand kilometers, not a typo. I also had a 2005 Nomad, rode it 239k and traded it for the Voyager. 2019 Tracer GT, Ontario, Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Motocheck Posted February 3, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted February 3, 2019 First I thought it was a typo. That’s damn use of the bike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
