- In today's video, Chase gets behind the handlebars of Yamaha's all-new 2024 Tracer 9 GT+ during its exclusive press reveal. Having spent countless hours on its predecessor, many of the updates on this model appear to directly address Chase's earlier wishes. But does this new Tracer 9 GT+ truly elevate the riding experience to the next level?

I’m in the UK and I’ve owned this bike for nearly 3 weeks. In fact had its 600 mile service last week. It’s a great bike. I love the quickshifter. The handling is possibly the best I’ve ever had, apart from a KTM Superduke. Acceleration is smooth and controlled, but without the arm wrenching I get with my BMW R1250RT, though it’s much lighter of course. The radar cruise control is excellent, though of course it’s not as versatile as it is on a vehicle with an automatic gearbox (in reality, a car). Haven’t experienced the advanced braking system (fortunately). The TFT screen works well, though the Garmin based GPS is fairly basic and fiddly to set up. As a pillion machine it’s okay for shortish rides but my wife finds it nowhere as comfortable as the RT. The luggage also is okay, but panniers are a strange shape, and there’s no central locking like on the RT. Mind you, the RT costs around £6k more!
I had the 2022 model and had to sell it after like 4 months... Great bike but I could not get comfortable on it. The seat was horrible and I could not get the bars in a good position that didn't;t have my neck in agony after an hour in the saddle.
I for rid of the Tracer 9 GT and got a new ZX14R and the Ninja is WAY more comfortable for me. Weird, right?
Naaa, most Kwakis are really comfy bikes 😊
Did they make the tach trace because it’s a tracer? That’s pretty sick
Looks like the silver is to just outline where the joystick is. Still half the price of a Harley and more stuff like the adaptive cruise control.
I have over 20k miles on the current generation bike. I added an exhaust, Corbin saddle, sport screen, and had the ECU re-flashed to get all the available power in all gears. I always ride it in full power mode with all the safety nannies turned off. I've also never scraped the pegs during aggressive cornering(A-1 mode, and setting pre-load properly would have likely fixed that for Chase). I would love it if Yamaha would bring over a lower cost base model, like they have in Europe. Give me the TFT, cruise, heated grips and basic abs. Power modes, electronic suspension, TC, SC, radar or integrated braking are not really necessary in my opinion. I can't see myself up-grading to this new model just for the TFT and slightly better controls.
I just recently purchased a new BMW F900XR which has many of the same features as this. I think Yamaha did a great job on this machine, but seriously they need to do more color options. I know some folks will love this gray/black but to me it just looks bland.
I liked the bimmer over the Yamaha too.
Beemer engine is made in China. Pure overpriced junk.
@@CaptainFeathersword The bimmer is slow and boring though.
I guess is depends on what one is looking for in a bike@@thumpertorque_.
The bmw is made in china and garbage, bye now. Mmmhhmm yep china
I am glad you were able to have a taste of the great roads (and trails) in Idaho! We like it when people are surprised here.
Yea Boise was awesome!
Will a full face helmet fit in a bag? How much buffeting? Can you adjust windshield? If so can you make adjustments while riding? Larger windshield available? Matching top box available? If so, how big is it? What does it cost? How tall are you? How much leg bend? Are foot pegs adjustable? Where’s the HP on the RPM curve?
These are excellent questions that a good reviewer should address. This is virtually a commercial for Yamaha.
congratulations on your video channel! now that you have ridden the Ducati Multistrada V2S and the Yamaha Tracer 9GT+. Which one would you choose?
Cheaper than Multistrada V4S and also have adaptive cruise control bye ducati
How did you like Boise? I have lived here for 23 year and think we have some of the best roads for riding and yes road conditions can be rough at best
@Chaseontwowheels - starting at 10 minutes 55 seconds into the video you mentioned that you weren’t gonna be talking for the next however long & rather than include the audio of the motorcycle many of us - probably - most of us enjoy listening to as we watch POV ride sections, you dubbed in some music that we could listen to just anywhere… for future reference maybe just let us listen to the motorcycle and enjoy the dialogue intermission? The whole video doesn’t have to be narrated AND DJ’d by you. We’re here for you AND the bike. We love you we love your channel but idk just something for next time. Thanks
Good notes. I’ll definitely keep that in mind in the future.
I was seriously waiting for this bike to come out in the USA... until I managed to find a Triumph Tiger 1200 GT pro for 18k out the door. Couldn't beat that! This looks like a great option though.
If that included tax, you got a screaming deal. Congrats. I love to hear people get deals like this. The Tiger is in a higher class than this Tracer.
@brettvictory4606 yes I did. A gentleman traded it in after only 200 miles, just didn't like it. Crazy deal.
Ride your own ride, especially on unfamiliar rides...
OC: It already has my favourite modification NO SCROLL WHEEL. May Yamaha remove it from ALL future bikes.
Amen
On my XS11 street mode meant there was concrete or asphalt under the tires. Nice bike, good review. Thanks.
Great review! If I hadn't got such a crazy good deal on a brand new 2022 T9GT that I picked up last spring I would have loved to of wait for this. That dash is so much better! either way, still loving mine!!! Best bike I've had yet.
Same here
Love this bike - but the screen is a joke. I demo'd the MT09 right before having an hour on the GT+. The MT had no buffeting and it was a windy day - the GT+ felt like the screen was going to cone off and my head was battered no matter what position i set it too.
Smaller screen needed.
I can't believe they let you run up Bogus on brand new bikes. Pretty awesome intro to Boise, IMO.
Also: Boy-see, not Boy-zee. 😁
OC
*OC* They finally got rid of the Squidward gauges and have a proper TFT. I agree that this definitely fixes all of the issues I had with the previous Tracer 9 GT. So, did they fix the tiny-ass side cases? It bugged me so much how an XL full face helmet didn't fit in them! That's a deal breaker for me in a touring bike. Sucks that I'd have to go to Shad or Givi to get proper side cases...
Should’ve saved your money man instead of buying that CFMoto 😂
#noregrets
@@chaseontwowheels I like the attitude!!! 🙌
You alluded to it, but never mentioned it directly. That is the semi active suspension. Is it Front only? Can you control it independently from the engine ride modes? Would have liked to hear more about it. It's a must have for me anymore with modern bikes.
It's semi active front and rear with only 2 suspension modes
Sport Touring is an underrated category in the U.S.
Not only US, here in Europe the situation is the same
Why the F manufacturers put in radar cruise control but no blind spot monitoring!
Very good and detailed review. I really enjoed your feelings and thoughts from a common rider. Cheers from Rome Italy 🙂
Bogus Basin Road (mountain road) was resurfaced about a year and 1/2 ago. It was unrideable for a while, I waited for all the cars and trucks to smash down all the gravel that needed to be pushed in. Also in the Treasure Valley of Boise, development is so rapid there are dirt and gravel trucks everywhere so corners there is always gravel.
I have seen a Hayabusa off road the adventure tag is pure marketing. 😊
Yamaha R9 GOTTA come next.
Yessss!
OC I need one of these. I really wanted an XSR 900, but this would fill that same need, just with a totally different look.
I've noticed on your other vids that you've really taken akin to your CFmoto Ibex 800. The only thing stopping me from getting that bike as well is just the general maintenance and reliability issues that no one seems to have. Have you had any weird maintenance issues that have been a pain to fix? Or is the Ibex as perfect as it seems? Thanks
Im a couple thousand miles in so the only stuff I’ve done on it is chain and oil stuff but so far it’s been a champ.
@@chaseontwowheels CFMOTO 800 or Tracer 9? What did you like more?
With all of the features that you love on this bike, you really need to get some time on an BMW R1250GS. While it doesn't have active cruise control, it has everything else, and I think you would really enjoy it. We can probably arrange for me to bring mine to Atlanta if you don't have another way to get ahold of one.
Hi, i’m actually considering an F750GS and comparing it to a Tracer 9 GT. Would you say the GS’ can be sporty for fun weekend rides?
@@Vanity7k I don’t know anything about the 750, but yeah, It has plenty of get up and go. 150hp and 100ftlbs is a decent amount no matter the package.
Is there someone out there who didnt try a BMW gs already?
@@thtpilotguy 134 HP and 105.5 ftlbs. Maybe 150HP plus on the new 1300GS.
I had to see this video twice. First time I was only thinking about that phone almost falling of your right pocket! 😂
Yamaha should add to the next upgrade: 1) Blind spot monitoring 2) Hill hold 3) Both headlights on in low beam. Then it would be perfect.
smart key
I got a new ‘22 for cheap last week and I love it. Your last review sold me. Thanks man!
how cheap
@@TheDennzio I think I paid just under $12k. There are a few leftover ‘22s on cycle trader even cheaper now
What is the best way to lower this bike? Play with suspension ?
Could this be a bike for a beginner??
The thing I saw people complain the most about on the previous model was the wind turbulence you get at your helmet. Is that changed at all??
Same as old model I guess
That's an easy fix with an aftermarket screen
Even if you raise the screen?
OEM touring windscreen with wind deflector on the top of it works very well for me on my 900 GT.
@richardhretczak536 I put one of those on my fz1 with the zero gravity touring screen. It makes a world of difference. I ride with it down on hot days though because it blocks too much wind.
What happend to luke and your editor?
OC, really nice bike...
Great video!! I have a 22, love it, only issue is the clutch take up and lack of manual suspension adjustment like the R1. I have one question, on the bikes shipped to left side driving roads, is the low beam light on the opposite side?
Everything but a tenere ADV trim 😂
I'm wondering if the bike has too much technology. After all, the more fandangos you have, the more you have to go wrong. BTW, I'm sure it's a great bike. I have an XT 660 SuMo myself and love it to bits.
Out of the gate yamaha bikes always have those bars with a ball on the end protruding from the foot pegs. I always remove mine I guess it's cool to have a warning you're near the end of traction but ya.
I drove the 2021 model for a week in Europe with the weird display. Fenomenal bike!!! Loved it in spite of the display.
I’m gonna get this new one. I wish it had Apple CarPlay like Goldwing does
i'm cross-shopping all the Yamaha CP3 bikes and i'd seriously get this if i didn't already have a goldwing. Looks really damn nice. Want something a bit more hooligan.
This bike is sick a win wow. Only didn't like where they put the seat warmer cable. It hits your thumb depending on your grip
Had a Kawasaki Concours i was wondering since the Concours have a 1400 cc motor if im going to be bore with a 900cc and if you felt the motor working hard and rev high since its a 3 cylinders compare to the inline four of the Concours on highway speed thx.
Idaho is flat? We need to teach geography in schools! The issue with gravel or the rock in the road shouldn’t have come into play if you were paying attention
Topcase n heated sit lol 😆
around the 9:50 mark you see a guy put his leg down, why? I see Tom cruise do this in the mission impossible movies and I don't think I ever put my leg down in a corner unless I'm on maybe gravel going slow. My BMW R9T comes with a steering stabilizer that every bike should have.
Hello! Greetings from Spain!. Do you know or somebody know if there is new information about the broken chassis that have this Tracer 9 model and MT09? I am recovering from a motorcycle accident I had on January 6 where I broke the frame, I was driving about 50kmh (31 miles) and a car skipped a stop... Ride safe guys.
About the bike it's an amazing bike, good weight, sport behaviour, comfortable..
I wish you would address how tall you are and how comfortable your legs were and give us an idea of how comfortable a tall or short rider would feel on this bike. I myself am 6'6" I don't know if I even fit on it.....
I don’t do long tours so I have no room to talk really. But the ACC on a bike isn’t a bragging right to me. My brand new Palisade has it along with many other driver aids that it becomes intrusive.
All I want is the quick shifter up/down which I hear is amazing and hill hold which it doesn’t have.
Wonder how it compares to a Kawasaki Versys 1000 SE LT+?? hmmmm 🤔
Amazing bike. At my age I would like this in a version that leaned more to the ‘touring’ side..
The adaptive cruise control with quick sifter sounds amazing! There's plenty of elevation changes in VA with busy traffic & being able to downshift to pass without dealing with throttle & resetting the cruise sounds sweet 😊
Fun fact. It’s actually the same screen as on the TMAX which came out 2/3 years ago.
bikes a low rider for sure ,I remember riding home from dealer scraping on the on ramp ,scared the crap out of me ,,,first thing I did on 2020 tracer was remove those fender finders on the bottom of the foot peg ,,makes a huge difference
Well done yamaha. And t9gt. Cant wait for tracer10gt. With CP4 engine and 1000cc or 1200cc
The FJ-09/Tracer 9 is such a great all arounder. If I could only have 1 bike for all purposes, this would be a top contender.
Fj-09 had a wayyyy livelier engine. I miss my 2015.
tracer 7 gt looks more like something I'd be down for, but it's not available in NA? What's going on with that?
I have tracer 9 gt 2022 and i m asking if i can change the double tft to the new one
And i think yamaha did not fix bad point that they did not put light in the keys control and it bad thing in the dark
This comes with bags. Did I just miss the part where you talked about that or any other cases etc available? Kinda missed the entire touring part of the sport tourer if not no?
Did they fix the windscreen height issues from the last generation?
What was the issue?
@@808Markthe windscreen was not in a great position for the average person and it made the experience not that great after all
The looks are so polarizing, I can't bring myself to like it =/
is it $6,000 better?
Luv your videos 😮😊
wait did Yamaha get a CF Moto MT800 inspired speedo? lol that is next level
Nice review. Brother in law i looking at one. Definitely worthy of looking at.
You thought Idaho was flat? You don’t spend much time out west, do you?
Don’t need to wish. You can adjust the foot pegs up one notch for ground clearance.
OC chase I noticed that you used the new dji osmo action 4 . Looks like a new gopro 11 killer. Great video as always.
Yea they actually worked flawlessly for this press launch.
I am curious of what would you have to say about BMW F900XR. I am in market for one of those two bikes. Just had a ride with the F900XR and it was just heavenly. Have to still try Tracer 9 and then I'll decide. All the best from Slovenia the land of Akrapovič
OC I'm so torn between this and a gsxs1000 gt+
4:51 I use that spot for my GoPro. It's perfect if u ask me haha
I have a 2020 tracer and it has a forward lean angle. Does this model still have that forward lean angle?
He said it did on the lower setting of the adjustable seat , but it evened out on the higher setting.
Tracer GT plus or Moto Guzzi V100S?
Love the bike but it is skittish when pushing it in the twisties.
BMW lets you upshift with cruise on
Huge fan from Singapore, really hope you can do a review of the Ninja 1000sx!
I own a 2022 Tracer 9Gt & IMO this 2024 model year represents a big improvement. I am concerned that the colors all seem to be camouflaged for the road which is NOT something I like, I prefer colors that help me stand out. The radar & linked braking is great but I'd like to see Hill Assist added, too. And the screen needs to be much improved. I plan to keep my beloved "Big Red" Tracer 9gt for another 3 years & I hope to see those features added when I trade up....and, The Elephant In The Room, hopefully Yamaha N America will actually be supporting this bike by then. Right now European showrooms are full of factory accessories while over here in N America we get very little & most of what's listed is permanently "Out Of Stock".
As for the observation on ground clearance & scraping pegs, maybe not going so fast into a tight corner would help....especially if you can't see where the road is going in time to react. Ride what you can see.
i was surprised to even find the motorcycle itself in showrooms where i'm at. Cycletrader has them lumped in with the regular one. not a separate trim level you can filter....
Your last paragraph: where's the fun in that?
They got rid of the muppet dash!
Chase is so socially awkward that he didn’t know how to fist bump 2:06
😂that's why we love him
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣that tac is so damn sick!
I'm on a S1KRR right now and I'm looking to trade it for a touring bike and the ground clearance is a huge concern for me. I'm used to doing a lot of leaning in the twisties and I want a tourer that is emphasizing sport. With such a relaxed position, it doesn't really enable the sport part very well. I'm also interested in the Tiger 1200 GT Pro and fear I would have the same problem with that bike.
Go with a s1000XR. It's one of the easiest bikes to ride fast I've ever owned. You can then throw some on panniers and easily tour for days.
Honestly if that’s the case I think Ducati might be where you need to be looking.
Oh fair point!
Try the GT Pro, wonderful suspension ground clearance no issue. Choose any one of nine damping settings in any rider mode if you don't like Triumph's pre-selection.
@@chaseontwowheels Yes, you're right Chase but the two things that are driving me to the Tiger are the shaft drive and 10k less price (triumph are running some summer promotions). I wish the Multistrada wasn't so pricey 😭
Should probably add “Tracer” to the title.
Not gunna lie neither me, anyone on my team or comment noticed that tell you. Haha nice job.
Can the radar for the gt9+ be TURN OFF?
no
What about the GPS
I'm looking for a good reason to trade my Diavel 1260. I need practicality but I don't want to pay out the ass for it. Sounds like the Tracer ticks a LOT of boxes. Great review Chase.
Blasphemy. Go multistrada
Haha the man already said he DOESNT wanna pay out the ass for it. Otherwise, yes go Multi. Hahaha
@@chaseontwowheelsThanks Chase! haha
No riding boots?
Is this vlog shot on the Action 4?
Sure is! It was so nice using them in this Press launch.
17:22 Did you just show your phone PIN on camera? 😮
I think you're just seeing things ;)
@@chaseontwowheels 🧐
OC 💪🏾💯
Can you remove the luggage?
You sure can!
The previous generation design was so much better than this. And those panniers, a complete design failure.
👍🏿
I own both a Concours 14 and a new ‘22 MT-09. I’d hate to think the engine in the MT is all I had when flying down endless roads. Maybe it could be better termed a weekend warrior, but full on sport tourer is pushing it. Plus, it’s still uglier than a mud fence. They added fancy cruise and upped the price $2K. Typical. It’ll be $12K in a year. The new display is killer though.
No rear radar. WTH. Love my Blind Spot Detection on my V4S Multistrada. But a great review. Thanks for the info.
Heated grips?heated seat? tank size? mpg? wind protection?
I love this bike but it’s out of my price range
Just finance! Or get the tracer 7 gt!
No. Don’t finance it. If you don’t have enough money don’t buy it.
@@richardhretczak536 everybody doesn't live in a cheap area or make 6 figures. Some of us need to finance to get the things we want, otherwise we'll never get these things
@@808Mark I don’t make 6 figures and I don’t think I live in “cheap area”. What I was advising you - don’t get into financing. Get used one with low mileage of previous generation. Do you have to have newest model? I’ve had many bikes and never new one. So far it has worked for me very well.
@@808MarkI always wonder why people in the US are so relaxed about financing everything all the time. If you’d save the money you’d pay monthly for the bike, you’d have the money saved up in no time right? Also rates are crazy at the moment, I wonder how much you would end up paying if you included interest.
