tojjer Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Hi, Just chopped my BMW F800GS for a brand new Tracer 900GT. Have to say, loving it so far. It's off to France with me on Wednesday so we'll get to get a better feel for it on longer journeys. Looking forward to having a read of a few of the threads and picking up some tips. Cheers tojj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tojjer Posted June 2, 2019 Author Share Posted June 2, 2019 Thank you. I can tell you already, that even only after a very small amount of miles, it is a much smoother bike to ride, and a lot sportier. Biggest thing for me is that the front suspension doesn't dive under braking like the F800GS did. That bike was terrible for it, and didn't give me a lot of confidence in the bends, even though you easily get it leant over to the very edge of the tyres. The front tyre was a 21 inch, 90 x 90. Frightening stuff on the road, but superb off of it. I see some people say about the TFT interfering with the sat nav. I have mine mounted on the handlebars and slightly back towards me. Not noticed any problems with it yet though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
