Offering the perfect blend of sports and touring, TRACER 9 GT+ Y-AMT is the ideal companion to your journey. Debuting new technologies to enhance your ride, Yamaha’s ultimate sports tourer sets new standards for the middleweight class. Equipped with an all-new adaptive headlight and Yamaha’s Y-AMT transmission, TRACER 9 GT+ is a technological tour-de-force.
Standard equipment on the TRACER 9 GT+ Y-AMT includes radar controlled adaptive cruise control, brake assist, Vehicle Hold Control and Yamaha’s innovative Y-AMT transmission, which allows riders to switch between automatic and manual shifting at the press of a button. TRACER 9 GT+ Y-AMT transforms from ‘sports’ to ‘touring’ in a way other motorcycles can only dream of, making it the perfect companion with which to take on the roads of life.
Tracer 9 GT+ Y-AMT is driven by Yamahas highly acclaimed 890cc CP3 engine that produces strong, linear torque, making this flagship Sport Tourer a remarkable performer whether touring through the Snowies or commuting to the office. Equipped with Yamahas Acceleration Position Sensor Grip (APSG) and Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T), this lightweight system eliminates the need for cables and pulleys and delivers superb response with a natural feeling.
The 7" TFT incorporates three themes and comes with Garmin LinkBox connectivity to provide integrated navigation, while calls, messages and music can be received through the Yamaha MyRide App and controlled using the five-way joystick on the left hand switch cube. A dedicated integrated storage includes a USB-A outlet for charging on the go.
In a world first in the motorcycle sector, the adaptive Matrix LED headlight provides illumination like never before. Linked to a camera built into the fairing, the system detects surrounding traffic conditions and automatically controls individual LEDs within the matrix to deliver a shaped beam of light to maintain optimal illumination at.
Experience a new way of riding with the choice of fully automatic (AT) or manual (MT) shifting via a finger operated see-saw switch. Invigorating when you want, easy when you need, Y-AMT works in perfect harmony with the cutting edge Yamaha Ride Control (YRC) electronic features to elevate the riding experience and deliver the perfect engine and transmission characteristics to suit the riding conditions and their own personal preferences.
The Tracer 9 GT+ Y-AMTs Unified Brake System incorporates a hydraulic unit to automatically distribute braking force to both wheels, adjusting the brake bias to optimise stopping power and controllability of the machine. In conjunction, the Vehicle Hold Control intuitively applies rear brake pressure when stopped, to allow seamless take offs when on an incline or slope.
Working in conjunction with the Y-AMT and KADS suspension, the radar controlled cruise control reduces fatigue by maintaining the correct speed gear and distance to vehicle in front when active. Radar also facilitates blind spot detection, which flashes a warning in the mirror when vehicle is detected in the riders blind spot.
Tracer 9 GT+ Y-AMT offers a highly customisable riding experience thanks to Yamaha Ride Control (YRC). This allows the rider to tailor their ride to match conditions and preferences. Three factory settings come preloaded (SPORT, STREET and RAIN) while two custom maps can be programmed through the dashboard menu or using the MyRide app, helping the rider choose their preferred engine power characteristics and electronic interventions.
The KYBs KADS (KYB Actimatic Damper System) electronic suspension is the most advanced system found on any Yamaha production motorcycle. Governed by the six-axis IMU and ECU, the adjustable units are linked to the YRC mode and dynamically adjust damping to deliver an optimal riding experience in a variety of load and road conditions.
Yamahas Smart Key System allows you to fire up the Tracer 9 GT+ without a physical ignition key. The key fob operates while in proximity of the bike and allows the central locking and unlocking of all functions, including the steering lock, fuel cap and the standard hard side cases, which remain secure whenever the smart key is out of range. When fitted, Yamahas genuine accessory top box also operates in the same way.
The Tracer 9 GT+ Y-AMT delivers improved wind protection thanks to a redesigned front fairing and windscreen. The new wind tunnel developed arrangement reduces buffeting to ensure both rider and pillion arrive at their destination fresher than ever, while the electronically controlled windscreen now offers 100mm of stepless adjustment to allow the rider to fine tune the aerodynamics to meet their own specific preferences.
The Tracer 9 GT+ Y-AMT features integrated heated handlebar grips, which offer 10 levels of warmth and the ability to be easily user programmed to three preset settings. These grips are optimised to deliver quick warmup and a uniform distribution of heat and can work in conjunction with the heated rider seat, which is available as a genuine Yamaha accessory.
The Tracer 9 GT+ Y-AMT features a low maintenance drive chain made by DID (Daido Kogyo). The endurance chain features rollers treated with a Diamond-like-coating, which increases both performance and durability. The chain stretches less, meaning less adjustment is needed and a longer service life is expected, while friction is also reduced which the rider will notice while pushing the bike.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) is standard fitment on the Tracer 9 GT+ Y-AMT. The system utilises sensors in both the front and rear wheels, which monitor the air pressure and send real time readouts to the TFT dashboard, allowing the rider to monitor tyre pressures on the go and warning in case of pressure loss.
