Great review as always. I can't wait for the new and improved 2019 Tracer 900GT which will be available mid 2018. Better styling & windscreen, cruise control, heated grips along with all new improved suspension. Can't wait to have a go on one as well as seeing you review. Any chance your full show will be available for viewing in N. America?
Why don't we get this show in the U.K.? Our bike shows are horrendous and pointless!!! I'm thinking of moving to SA just for this show (and the weather)
Great review guys I bought mine last month. It's such a fun bike but I found 45 minutes on the saddle is about the limit for my body and need a break. If you're interested here is a dedicated Tracer forum motrider.com
Great review, and very nice bike! Great to see you again, Matt! Since I moved to Europe, I missed seeing you guys. Had one of the best days of my life with you guys at Gerotek!
+The Bike Show Yep, I have a ZRX1200R that I'm busy modding (ZZR1400 front fork, ZX-10R wheels, and some other stuff...). Looking to buy one of these Tracers for touring Europe!
GSX-S1000/F is basically a superbike for the street. FJ/Tracer is around 30 hp less, 20+ torque less, and has long travel suspension for messy road surfaces and touring. Different bikes. GSX-S1000/F is more comparable to the Z1000SX.
115 hp in the Tracer 145 hp in the GSX-S Tracer stands tall and comfortable GSX-S is more dedicated and sporty, with some comfort Tracer has nice wide gear ratios, for crawling along or for lower revs at highway speeds GSX-S has a tall 1st gear and higher revs at highway speed, although doing just over 40 mpg in most reviews.
Great video and great test !!! Greetings from the Harz Mountains Germany

Awesome review, loved the scenery. I love that motorcycle, but it has one problem... the all digital dashboard, I like to have something analogic to look at. You got one new subscriber here.
drop the music in background next time please...
I think the music is great...and definitely adds to the scenic feel of the review

i just took out the new 2016 twin..oh buddy! ua-cam.com/video/KexKW7gP0ow/v-deo.html
Please God, if you love me, you will allow the U.S. to get this color with the anodized blue forks in the future!
Prayer+action=results... Contact Yamaha and tell them
Yamaha fa bellissime moto ma dovrebbe usare dei colori migliori opinione personale
What I want to know, is, with people clamouring to LEAVE South Africa, you guys moved there?? haha :-)
Albert Tran; they are riding jeans from X-Kulcha, a Johannesburg based company. Find them here; www.xkulcha.com
I think he likes it! I do too. Great review, great show. Keep up the good work!
Great roads and some amazing footage. The drone shots adds a lot to the high production value.
2:40 - 2:60 as if you are riding in Algeria, we have the same exact road.... unbelievable!
Well done , great review, nice video. It's a winner for sure... I love my FJ09 .
The guy must work for Yamaha. This isn't a review. It's a commercial.

The Honda maybe boring to your taste but it a very good bike (crosstour 800x) I'm referring to, give me the Honda and you can keep your Wheel's.
Great test, beautiful footage, but why why why is the deinterlacing so terrible and jerky?
why is he driving on the wrong side of the road
I think you mean “why is riding on the wrong side of the road “
For R125 000 It's a Great Deal :) Especially with all the Extras as Stock. + The Triple sounds the best even with a stock exhaust
I agree. best bike on the market
What an awesome bit of kit.
One question, why hasn't you tested the BMW F800GT? You mention it but hasn't tested it.
beautiful view, beautiful place
with a touring bike like mt-09. ya.. "ride on"
How's the vibration for say freeway blasting at 70mph for a few hours if you need to do that to get to the good roads?
It should have 6 speed and cruise control imo
That was awesome bike. I love yamaha
M to the T with a 0 with a 9...
any handlebar swaps?
great review, mate! thanks.
go the All Blacks!
Great review, and very nice bike! Great to see you again, Matt! Since I moved to Europe, I missed seeing you guys. Had one of the best days of my life with you guys at Gerotek!
+Jaco Hattingh Hope you're still riding Jaco, you've got plenty of the world's best biking roads on your doorstep...

Nice review as usual.
That's badass
FJ-09, versys 650, fz-09 or fz-07. Which one is better. I'm on a KLR right now and looking to upgrade.
fz09 by far, best engine, great looks, best price
+MissMan666 ok but what about wind protection
Check the Yamaha website. I believe they do make cowlings and mid-sized windshields for the fz09.
If you want some decent fuel range, the FZ is not the bike for that. FJ or Versys 650 both have better range. 4.75 gal and 5.5 gal respectively.
gsx s1000 ou tracer ??? what is the best in your view ??? thankksss

Good For Yru. It looks lmke. grate incompetent What do you think, guyv... !!
I had MT09 Tracer for 2h demo. Bike has been returned after 25 minutes. I did not like it at all. :)
Great video and great test !!! Greetings from the Harz Mountains Germany
