There's a rumor Yamaha are bringing out a Tracer 10 in 2024.
I can't look at the dash without thinking 70's scuba diver ! 😂
Ah fs why did you have to say it 😂😂
@@johnmcmahon7766 It's one of those once seen it'll never look any different !

That's why he's got the 360 Cam in front of it
Very nice Mr Dan. Happy travels.
Plus, bonus points for having two full size panniers due to the lack of a can on one side! 👍
Congrats Dan.. it’s a lovely bike. I’m sure you’ll have loads of fun with the bike, and hopefully your good lady with find it comfortable too. 😊
Wishing you many happy miles Dan. Super looking bike mate. Love that colour too. 👌🏍️😍
I always go for the new option. It is not a sin. Warranty, breakdown cover, peace of mind, no MoT..........All good. I don't know one end or a hammer from the other, and don't want to. I love bikes and love riding them. The up and down and pushy bits, don't enthral me. Good luck and safe riding.
Congratulations on the new bike, great colour combo, never had a Yamaha due to no dealerships in my area, enjoy the new bike, look forward to the new vids
Congrats and Merry Christmas....lovely bike 👌
Happy new bike Dan, health to enjoy!
Interesting choice . I currently ride a 2021 Tiger 900 GT PRO and the Tracer was one of my considerations along with GS850 . The new Tracer 9GT + is a cracking bike and definitely a contender if and when I replace mine . Will look forward to your reviews on longer trips with the bike . Keep up the good work
Lovely machine. Enjoy Dan!
Good for you! Absolutely loving your channel. Enjoy the new steed!
Congratulations on your purchase of the 9GT, I too have traded in my Tiger 800 for the 9GT which arrives next Tuesday and I can't wait!!
Congratulations on your new bike! Looks amazing
I bought exactly the same bike in the same colour 4 weeks ago. I'm looking forward to your future videos on the Tracer. It is a fantastic bike, a keeper.
And, wow, 75K subscribers, when did that happen! Congratulations!
Congratulations Dan, very wise choice 👏
I spent an entire day looking at new bikes, l went to 4 motorcycle stores and checked out almost everything including the new BMW 1300.
My favourite bike was the GT 9 Yamaha.
Very nice Dan! ‘Sounds lovely’ I’ll have to grab a ride out on one at some point. Have a great Christmas.
Congrats on your new bike, great choice, happy christmas from Ireland
Nice looking bike Dan. Enjoy it and ride safe.
Dan, think you have summed the bike up well, I also plummed a month ago for a tracer GT and love it, I did find the seat hard and angled toward the tank for me so got elite seats at sussex motorcycles to rebuild it, 120 quid reshaped and with memory foam all across it, its brilliant now, also added pyramid front and rear huggers, Jtec tail tidy, nippy norman grips which are ace and a puig screen, bike is bang on now and its a real hoot, handling, sound and power its a wonderful all round machine that's fun and engaging and plenty quick enough, I also did the dale hayes airbox mod which gives it even more induction sound with no other mods or adjustments needed, just adds less restriction on airflow and the bike loves it ! ride safe all
I also had a cb650 and now got a tracer 9 gt but the black one!
Awesome bike, still getting used to the power, she has loads of torque
Nice machine Dan.....There's no mistaking the sound of that CP3 engine .
Love it mate ❤ 👍

I just picked up a 2023 Tiger 900 GT Pro with full lugage and only 1k miles on the clock for £11,200. I was looking at the Tracer 9 GT Plus as well but the Tiger was such a bargain I used the difference to buy some quality gear.
Congratulations on your new Bike. I am hoping to finish this year on the same model. Enjoy your ride
Great choice Dan , I own a Tracer 9 GT and absolutely love it, I bought it after touring in Wales on my MT09 which I loved, but just needed comfort but the same grin factor😃
Happy New Bike Day!! Great choice..
Beautiful bike Dan. Enjoy it. I'm thinking of going for the gt+. Next year.
I love the sound of these things. Best sounding stock exhaust ive personally heard, not too-too loud either, which I prefer.
Great choice for a new bike. Liking the white paint scheme with lots of gold.
I just knew you were going to get this one. That spec and colour choice is lovely, congratulations and have fun
Congrats on the new wheels! It’s a good looking ride!
Nice bike Dan I look forward to see more videos of your new bike. Myself I’m getting a new triumph, Tiger 850 sport in March next year.
Looks and sounds great! I like the dash 👍
Brilliant bike, had mine now in red for two years from new and it’s amazing, full of fun and bags of character! Pound for pound you get so much more than other bikes in the range. You bound to get others criticising the split screen but should they have bought one, they would find it’s absolutely fine and makes no difference. Hope you enjoy the full orchestra of the engine sound too! 👌👍💯
Congratulations! Nice bike. And a good one aswell.
I bought a new bike aswell, a couple of months ago. A 2020 (brand new) KTM 790 Duke. Nice feeling!
KTM 790, Great choice
Congrats Dan 👏
You just HAD to caress it when saying, " .. GT..." at the beginning. LOL! Congratulations on the new ride Dan. I've heard really good things about this bike.
Great choice! I had a slightly older Tracer 900 as a courtesy bike for a month after my Vstrom was written off a few years back and it was an absolute hoot; fast, agile, good riding position, it ticked a whole lot of boxes. If I could afford bikes of that value I'd probably look at one too. Have they improved the saddle since then though, because that was my only gripe - it was a rock hard plank on the one I had, uncomfortable even on a commute, let alone a tour.
Get your arse on a cycle seat, after that you will be fine😂 I’ve done some 4000 mile tours on my 900gt never had a problem with the standard seat.
It sure looks good and sounds even better! I hope it will give you loads of fun.
Great bike Dan, love the styling and the colour. Felt like a change myself this year and got the KTM 1290 SAS, which I'm very pleased with, unfortunately I couldn't let go of my MT09 for the very same reasons you are enjoying the new GT; Yamaha make great bikes, look forward to your adventures.
Congrats on your new bike, the white and gold looks great. At the start of your video I thought that I hated that dash…then it warmed on me and by the end of your video I was rather liking it…didn’t take long😄
Great review. I have no issues with dash on mine. Very functional. Congratulations!
Crackin choice, very good looking & sounding bike. 👍😀👍
Very nice machine, I hope you have many enjoyable miles and memories with it!
Great video loved it. Like the bike. And the tracer 7 also. Glad you'll be posting some more videos. Hope to see more riding videos also. Tks
I've owned the CP3 in an XSR but I just can't quite convince myself to swap my Tracer 7 for the 9.
I own a Tracer 900GT and absolutely love it! I fitted a Delkevic exhaust (and got it tuned) so it sounds amazing, is economical, goes hard and being a Yamaha is ultra reliable!!!
Nice one Dan! Such a great bike!
Congrats, Dan on the new bike!! WooHoo2U! I need to know ALOT more 'bout that Tracer 9 GT tho. I've always loved that Tiger 900 from the goofy exo skeleton days!! It's a gold standard for other bikes to use in the ADV world. Where you spend your hard earned dollars says much about the manufacturer, the design & comfort of the bike. The Tracer 9 GT and the new GT+ didn't raise my blood pressure (enough) to research. Well, Dan- now I need to know!
Congrats on the new bike!
I own a 2019 Tracer900GT which is a great bike too! Just needs a comfy seat as the stock seat like a block of concrete! The induction sound is really addictive though! Enjoy and ride safe 👍
Congrats on the new bike, I have the same bike for over a year now. I love it. The dash is not so bad and you can have it show 5 fuel gauges. 4 on the right and one on the left 😊. Looking forward to more vids from you.
That doesn't make sense to me? Why have 5 fuel gauges. Are they each visually different or what?
That's amusing, will have to do that. 😂
i did it on a test bike before my friend rode it. made me smile..@@Englishbikerdan
I got mine on a Thursday in August and did an 800 mile trip that weekend. Love the bike. It was a bit different after logging 150,000 miles on two different Bandits. I did have to buy a shorter screen, as many others have noted the stock screen is just so noisy. I have no problem with the odd display, it can be handy for keeping different information up. I've added a GIVI topbox and at some point might replace the panniers with the GIVI bags from my old bike because I think the stock bags are, well...ugly. But I don't see them when I'm riding and is really what matters.
I knew the + was out there but don't personally need the adaptive control or new braking system. Love this bike!
It's an amazing looking bike. I've had a gen 2 and gen 3 mt09 they are so much fun. Definitely look into one of these in a year or 2
Congratulations. Excellent bike.
Nice bike Dan!! Can never go wrong with a Yammy!
congratulations! Enjoy.
Test rode one today to replace my 80k mile Multistrada. I love the engine! There are lots of new 2022 models available here in the US, I should be getting a good deal on one. Bummer they don’t offer the white and gold here but silver/black/blue looks great as well.
I don't have a Tracer 900 but I tested one and loved it. I think we have the same taste in bikes Dan. We love the Tracer 900 and the SV650. The sound of that triple is intoxicating.
Lovely bike. Good luck with it. I think you made a great decision! It has everything I would ever want! .........Sal : )
Very nice Dan it looks and sounds great 👍
I absolutely love these, I think they look and sound great. Enjoy sir 😁👍🏻👍🏻
Congratulations, fantastic motorcycle!
well done mate , ive got the 2021 tracer 9 GT best thing i ever bought , love it hope you have awesome times on her 😊
Skon fietsje, saw the black version not long ago. Absolutely stunning with the matching paniers.
I went for the GT+ this year (also persuaded a friend to go for the same😂). I love to see a channel I’ve been following for reviews, and since starting to ride has picked a tracer! Will be doing my first tour next year. Looking forward to your future vids and in particular touring footage 😁.
Good choice Dan! Enjoy the plus!
I’m sure I wont make the most of it… Massive step up from my Honda NC750x 😅. Love it though and very approachable power imho. Plenty of fun. Enjoy yours too!
Very nice! Ride safe.
I love the bike is while, big fan of white bikes.
But the plus is tempting with the dash and a bit less of a budget feel and the back lit switches could be nice.
But white is nice and the money saved is more than all the mods I'd do on both bikes.
Very nice dan, sounds mint.. Health too enjoy.. 👍🏍..
I was undecided, this or the Transalp. Both very good contenders. Went to the Transalp. More civilized, but above all , dealership close to me. Both are very good road bikes.
That's a lovely bike, that triple sound Is music to my ears ❤
Test rode one a few weeks ago and absolutely loved it. unfortunately the insurance is a bit much for me at the moment being a younger man living in a crime ridden part of central London. However we are moving out in a year or two and either this or an s1000XR will be what i'm moving to for sure.
Great choice! Sounds fantastic. Enjoy! I really fancy one but haven’t had a test ride yet. Been thinking I’d go for the GT+, but only because I’m a complete tart. Yours looks to be better value though. 😎🏴
Love tracer GT, got myself mt09. Love the sweet triple engine music. Amazing bike.
Congratulations🍾
Cheers! I’ve been looking at one of these to get me back in the motorcycle / YoutTube world. Use to ride a Kawasaki 650. Found a red 2022 9 GT for 10,890. Looks like the dealership is making way for the 2023 models so it’s enticing.
Came back to say. Made the purchase. Picking it up tomorrow. Very happy with my purchase and the savings I got. There was a 2024 model there as well but it was full asking price. The new dash looked nice though. Cheers!
Nice machine. Wish you many happy miles 😊
Thanks 👍
Very nice -- wish we got these in Canada!
This year I too traded my Tiger 850 sport in for a new Tracer 9GT. Love it! Safe riding!
Happy new bike!.. Whenever I see adventure style on 17's though I can't help but think something ain't quite right 🤔
Superb engine in that (CP3), have the same in my XSR900 and love it (whines in 3 and 6th)
I bought one of these new 18 months ago. It's a good all round bike although I preferred the triple on my Triumph 765. I've toured in the UK and not having to pay extra for panniers was a big bonus for me. I've done 8.5k miles since new and the bike has coped well in all conditions. The screen is rubbish although buying a spoiler eliminated the buffeting (but it's still noisy). My main gripe is the finish - be careful riding the bike in winter. Despite using ACF50 and regular washing my bike really suffered. The dealer supported a warranty claim but Yamaha weren't interested. As a result I won't be buying another Yamaha. Also be aware that number of people have had problems that have made the bike virtually unrideable. Throtttle position sensors and throttle bodies seem to be the problem, it's been going on since the bike was introduced and is still occurring with the latest bikes. Luckily, mine doesn't seem to be affected. Enjoy and ride safe. 😊
Thanks, this bike won't see any winter riding beyond the one I've just done! :D Cheers!
I don't know, between this and the latest version of the 1050, I chose the 1050. I liked more the power down low, the more relaxed riding position and with the tracer I always found myself breaking the law in order to get the engine in it's happy place, otherwise it felt choked somehow, restricted. Also the fact that I changed from a v strom 650 and the controls on the 1050 are basically the same. And the V Twin sound that I like more :)
Smart choice for UK! Love my MT-09 SP. I highly recommend putting on Dunlop Mutant tires. The wet grip and confidence inspiration is amazing. High-silica compound.
I prefer the Bridgestone S22 - after 8 sets, the new S23 will be fitted in spring 2024. Dry weather grip is more than excellent / confidence inspiring in the twisties or on the race track. Of course, if a rider needs to get more "mileage" out of a set of tires, there are other, more sports touring oriented tyres available.
Michelin road 6 is a very good option as well
@@WTF1wr1ownage
Smart choice - especially when you are often cruising in wet / damp weather as well.
Thanks for the tips!
@@DaleMt09sp they are killer tires man, my front has 25K kilometers on it and still going. Rear lasted about 22K kilometers. Beside the longevity the handling in the wet/cold is second to none.
Great bike, ex colleague has one, bloody lovely.
Have I missed something?
Thought you had an SV 650?🤔
Looking forward to seeing many videos featuring the T9GT. 🎯🍻
Hopefully not too early:
Merriest of Christmas to you too.🌲🎄
SV is safely tucked away for winter. 😁
Beautiful first review! I appreciate more a review from individuals that bought the bike rather from journalists that may have reasons to push one bike to another. You mention the Suzuki GT and the VSTROM among the bikes you looked at. I am interested mostly on the GT since the GX was announced and shares the same engine as the GT. Torgue wise how would you compare the tracer to the GT? Does GT feel faster? Does it have the same pull in low rpms? Also I have ridden the VSTROM and felt that it had lots of torgue in low rpm and good handling, what made you choose tracer over the VSTROM? ... thanks in advance!
I love the bike! That colour is stunning!
Bummer they don’t offer that color in the US
Had the the 1st gen Tracer boy do I miss that engine.. lovely 👍
Good choice, I ride a 2022 xsr900 which shares the same platform, same swing arm, same engine. Amazing bijes. The only niggle to me are the brakes not as good as they could be.
I got mine for 4K less money than the GTPlus. I'm very happy with mine.
Great looking bike Dan and sounds great and has a cool looking dash good bike awesome sounding machine
Hi Dan, great bike... I came off a Tiger 900 GT pro last year for a new 2023 Tracer 9GT for similar reasons to you.. the Tiger is a superb bike but I never really got on with the 19 inch front wheel as i was never confident pushing it into corners due to a feeling of vagueness (to me, and I did 12k miles on it!), I came off more sporty bikes and the Tracer gives me that sporty feeling again and I love it, The Tiger is an awesome bike but the Tracer is certainly more engaging and fun..😁
Congrats, great bike awesome engine..
I really like this bike!! Great looks which cap what it is in essence… which is a hooligan with lots of everyday functional extras (= great value). Like u Dan, I’m vibing on the right blend of fun x sensible. (R9t rider)
I've had 4 bikes in less than 2 years (since passing my big boy test). This is the only bike I want to keep and have stopped looking for a replacement. Always looking for additional bikes but not to replace it lol
Hey Dan love your new bike , some specs on them t9gt,s oohhh the sound of that triple engine and gear change is soooo addictive. I’ll have to get a spin on one anyway wear well lad . Oh bytw well deserved 👍🤜👏🙋🏻♂️🫡
Kinda jelly! Great bike and engine!
Good choice Dan but I went for a Multi V2S, never regretted it as I’m a bit of a twin fan and the Italian styling was so much better than the GT. Love the CP3 engine but it’s the front end to me that looks odd, anyway they are a great bike so enjoy.👍
Suppose looks are always down to each individuals preference but i really like the look of these
Torn between the two now. I heard some reviewers saying Multi V2 has issues with handlebars trembling at high speeds. No idea where I will land, to be honest...
Looks great and a dash you probably accept after time
Congrats EBD
Dan, excellent video. How were the Aerodynamics coming off the windshield specifically at your helmet. I noticed you added the wind deflector. Did that clean things up enough to be really good?
