Higher specifications for Yamaha’s Sport Touring models
Improved Touring Performance for TRACER 7 & TRACER 7 GT
Yamaha’s TRACER 7 and TRACER 7 GT benefit from a comprehensive range of technical changes that are designed to provide an even more versatile and rewarding riding experience.
Driven by Yamaha’s too friendly EU5 CP2 engine with its torque-rich power delivery, these extremely agile long-distance Sport Tourers are known for their thrilling performance. Both models receive a number of refinements and upgrades, while the TRACER 7 GT is even more richly equipped with additional features for enhanced touring capabilities.
5-inch connected TFT meter
Both the TRACER 7 and TRACER 7 GT have been upgraded with new TFT meter giving smartphone connectivity. The new 5-inch colour screen provides the rider with key information in a clear, stylish and easy to understand format. The new system gives a choice of two screen themes. The ‘Touring’ screen displays information in a functional and conventional analogue style, while the ‘Street’ screen has a more stylish and contemporary feel.
Both bikes are equipped with a Communication Control Unit (CCU) that enables riders to link their smartphone with the machine using Yamaha’s free MyRide app using Bluetooth®. Once connected the rider can view information on incoming calls, emails and messages on the TFT meter.
New handlebar switch clusters with an ergonomic design enable the rider to operate the new meter with ease and select screen mode and more.
Improved braking performance
Accompanied by updated front forks, the TRACER 7 and TRACER 7 GT are fitted with larger dual 298mm front disc brakes that provide excellent stopping power and feel in any situation – whether on an urban commute or being ridden through the Alpine environment. The updated front forks feature revised settings for a more balanced and versatile ride, and a new unified full adjustability system makes setting them up easier.
TRACER 7 GT exclusive new features
More versatile than ever
As well as the new connected 5-inch TFT meter, larger disc brakes and refined front suspension it shares with the TRACER 7, the GT model is also equipped with a wide range of luxury and comfort equipment designed to provide the Sport Touring rider with an even more attractive ‘ready-to-go’ package.
20-litre hard side cases
Whether you’re travelling or commuting, the 20-litre hard side cases offer the ideal capacity without compromising the bike’s compact dimensions and aggressive good looks. Available in a diverse range of colours, their slim and robust design perfectly complements the TRACER 7 GT’s dynamic style.
Touring Screen
92mm higher and 70mm wider than previously, the GT’s new Touring Screen gives enhanced wind protection on long-distance rides. Made with unbreakable and scratch-resistant polycarbonate, the new screen ensures maximum riding comfort with reduced noise – together with enhanced wind and weather protection.
Comfort Seat
Specially designed seat providing improved riding comfort for the rider and passenger when touring. Featuring a dual-material skin with contrasting stitching, as well as different foam density zones for comfortable seating – and an integrated TRACER logo.
Side Tank Pads
Made from high density rubber, the side tanks pads increase grip and rider comfort whilst protecting the tank from scratches. The design is inspired by the Roads of Life philosophy, the concept behing Yamaha’s Sport Touring models.
Rear Carrier
The addition of the rear carrier as standard on the TRACER 7 GT is intended to provide even more rigidity and frame stiffness. As an extra benefit the passenger will have improved grip while sitting on the pillion position.
Colouring
TRACER 7 will be available in Midnight Black, Icon Performance and Redline.
TRACER 7 GT will be available in Icon Performance, Phantom Blue and Midnight Black with dedicated GT-graphics.
