Il est doté d'un pare-brise, d'une compatibilité avec les sacoches et d'une position de conduite ergonomique plus droite. Il a fait l'objet d'une importante mise à jour en 2020 avec un style révisé, un nouveau tableau de bord LCD avec connectivité pour smartphone et une suspension améliorée. Il est devenu populaire en tant que véhicule de tourisme sportif léger et accessible, apprécié pour son moteur bicylindre parallèle CP2 polyvalent et son excellent rapport qualité-prix.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir
Proven Engine Reliability
The Tracer 700 shares its 689cc parallel-twin engine with the MT-07, a unit renowned for exceptional long-term reliability with minimal reported failures. Regular oil changes every 6,000 miles are largely all it needs to run strong past 50,000 miles.
Watch the Screen Mounts
A known minor issue is the windscreen mounting brackets cracking over time due to vibration, especially on pre-2020 models. Inspect these carefully on used bikes, as replacements are inexpensive but indicate whether the previous owner maintained small details.
Strong Resale Value
The Tracer 700 holds its value unusually well in the mid-size adventure-touring segment, typically retaining around 70-75% of its value after two years. Its popularity and limited depreciation make it a smart buy both new and used.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion
"The sensible adventure-tourer choice that quietly outperforms its reputation."
$5,500-$8,500 usedThe Tracer 700 is one of those bikes that doesn't demand your attention until you've lived with one for a while — then you wonder why you ever bothered with anything else. The CP2 parallel-twin is bulletproof if serviced properly, and most examples you'll find used have been ridden by sensible touring types rather than hooned to death. Check the chain and sprockets hard on anything over 15k miles, and look for windscreen crazing on older models. The previous owner's service history matters enormously here. Used prices are genuinely strong value territory. A 2019-2021 example in decent shape sits comfortably below what a comparable Honda or BMW asks, yet delivers comparable real-world usability. The suspension is a weak point on heavier riders — it's tuned soft from factory and aftermarket springs are a worthwhile immediate upgrade. Ergonomics suit riders from 5'7" upward without issue. Fuel economy hovers around 60mpg regardless of how you ride it, which tells you everything about the engine's character.
