Sport Touring never felt this good. With semi-active suspension, hard side cases, heated grips, a quickshifter and LED cornering lights, the new Tracer 9 GT gives you dynamic touring comfort. A new high-torque engine and lightweight aluminium chassis ensure ultimate sports versatility. Turn up your journey with the all-new Tracer 9 GT.

PREMIUM TOURING FEATURES
The list of luxury features includes standard side cases, LED cornering lights, heated grips, twin TFT meters, a quickshifter, adjustable seat and R1M-inspired colours. With a fuel range over 350 km, the Tracer 9 GT is built to turn up your journey and take you into a new world.

NEW CHASSIS AND SUSPENSION
The fully adjustable electronic suspension is governed by a new six-axis IMU and ECU which activate a Hydraulic Unit (HU) and Suspension Control Unit (SCU). Damping settings are instantaneously adjusted based on load and riding conditions. A newly designed CF die-cast aluminium Deltabox frame provides higher levels of rigidity for sport-bike agility and sure-footed stability.

SPORT PERFORMANCE
All-new electronic semi-active suspension constantly adjusts front and rear damping force to give you the smoothest and most secure ride, whatever the load or speed. A larger-capacity 889 cc three-cylinder engine (from the 2021 MT-09) meets EU5 standards and produces stronger torque for intoxicating acceleration. Additionally, a new lightweight die-cast aluminium chassis ensures sport bike agility with tourer stability—solo or two-up.

Features & Benefits

ENGINE

New 889 cc CP3 engine
Developing higher levels of linear torque at lower rpm, the new larger-capacity 889 cc CP3 engine produces remarkable acceleration and thrilling corner exit speeds, making this the sportiest Tracer ever. Optimized gear ratios plus a refined assist & slipper clutch deliver super-smooth performance, with the glorious growl from the new twin-tail exhaust and redesigned intake system amplifying the thrill of every ride.

CHASSIS / SUSPENSION

Lightweight CF aluminum die-cast frame
The next-generation Tracer 9 GT is equipped with a newly designed CF die-cast aluminum Deltabox frame providing higher levels of rigidity for sport bike agility and sure-footed stability. A new aluminium swingarm is 64 mm longer to ensure excellent high-speed stability without compromising the bike’s nimble handling character.

KYB semi-active suspension
Fully adjustable electronic suspension front and rear is governed by the 6-axis IMU and ECU which activate a Hydraulic Unit (HU) and Suspension Control Unit (SCU). Damping settings are instantaneously adjusted via a solenoid in order to achieve a smooth and secure ride—regardless of the load or riding conditions. Mode is set through the TFT interface.

Lightweight SpinForged wheels
The lightest design ever fitted to a production Yamaha – weighing 700 g less than the previous model – the new SpinForged wheels on the Tracer 9 GT reduce unsprung weight for superior suspension feel and performance. As well as helping to reduce overall weight by 2 kg, these ultra-light wheels contribute towards the next generation Tracer 9 GT’s increased fuel efficiency.

Adjustable ergonomics
The Tracer 9 GT’s ergonomics can be easily adjusted to suit different physiques and riding styles. The newly developed rider’s seat is mounted 15 mm lower than the previous model, and features a simple tool-free, two-position height adjuster. Further changes to the ergonomics can be made by adjusting the footrests by 15 mm up or down, and the handlebar position can also be moved forwards by 9 mm and upwards by 4 mm by reversing the direction of the handlebar clamps, giving a total of eight different riding positions.

R1-type radial front brake master cylinder
The 2021 Tracer 9 GT is the first-ever Yamaha sport touring machine to be equipped with a front brake featuring a R1-type radial master cylinder. Manufactured by Nissin, this high-tech supersport-class braking system features a piston that moves parallel to the brake lever travel, giving a more linear brake feel and a higher degree of controllability.

2-position adjustable seat
The Tracer 9 GT’s handlebar/footrest/seat layout has been carefully developed to give a sporty yet comfortable riding position that gives you controllability with comfort. A new two-position seat enables tool-free height adjustment, enabling you to customize the ergonomics to match your riding style and physique.

DETAILS

6-Axis IMU plus lean-sensitive rider aids
The Tracer 9 GT is now equipped with some of the most advanced electronic rider aids in the class, giving you added confidence and precise controllability in different weather and road surface conditions. Developed from the R1M, the compact 6-axis IMU governs a lean-sensitive, three-mode Traction Control System (TCS), as well as a Slide Control System (SCS), front wheel LIFt Control System (LIF) and Brake Control system (BC).

Hard side cases
All-new hard side cases with matching colour panels are fitted as standard equipment (each case can accommodate a full-face helmet). For a natural riding feeling, the cases are mounted to a fully floating carrier system. An optional top case can also be fitted.

LED cornering lights
Next-generation LED cornering lights highlight the apex of every bend to help guide you in the darkest nights. Brightness is automatically increased as the banking angle gets steeper, giving a clear field of vision that allows for sporty riding long into the night. The system operates when the bike is leaned at more than 7 degrees at 5 km/h and above.

Full LED lighting
Compact LED lighting is featured throughout the Tracer 9 GT. Separate high/low mono-focus headlights give the bike a dynamic new look and provide superior illumination in any situation. LED flashers reinforce the bike’s premium status, and a signature taillight enhances the bike’s agile looks and sporty feel.

Bidirectional Quick Shift System (QSS)
The Tracer 9 GT comes equipped with an up-and-down Quick Shift System (QSS) for faster, smooth, clutchless gear shifting. A sensor on the shift rod detects movement, and the ECU momentarily cuts drive torque to the engine to give seamless mid-corner gear shifting that maintains chassis balance and stability with more relaxed cruising.

Heated grips
Fully integrated 10-level heated grips are fully controllable by the handlebar scroll wheel and monitored by the TFT meter. Specially shaped grips feature thinner rubber that allows efficient transmission of the heat for all-weather riding comfort.

Dedicated colours and graphics
The Tracer 9 GT is offered in exclusive Liquid Metal colour and graphics treatment that give a premium finish reminiscent of the R1M, adding a level of sporty sophistication to the machine.

Twin 3.5-inch TFT meters
Twin 3.5-inch TFT screens provide intuitive, easy-to-read data that enables you to focus on your riding while being kept fully informed. While the left screen displays key operational information such as speed, rpm, gear and rider aid mode, the right screen features non-critical data including odometer, temperature and tripmeters.

Cruise Control System
Similar to the system used on the previous model, cruise control can be activated when riding at a speed of 50 km/h or more and using 4th gear or higher, making long-distance riding more enjoyable.
