The Yamaha Tracer 900 is my kind of bike. I knew I would like it before I even sat on it. The only question was how much I would like it.
I had ridden the Yamaha Tracer 700 and the MT-10 Touring Edition, so I had a pretty good idea what to expect from the Tracer 900. Even so, it was a pleasant surprise.

The good vibes started when I first got my hands on the Yamaha Tracer 900. I pushed the bike from behind parked cars into a space big enough to jump on it without denting anyone’s car. For a big bike, it was easy to move and had useful grab rails at the back making balancing easier. It tips the scales at over 200kg but I have struggled much more with lighter bikes. This was a good start.
