Yamaha Tracer 900
The Yamaha Tracer 900 has a top speed of 215 km/h, produces 115 hp and weighs 193 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.5/10.
Le Yamaha Tracer 900 a été introduit en 2015 en tant que dérivé du MT-09 pour le tourisme sportif. Il est doté d'un pare-brise, d'une compatibilité avec les sacoches et d'une ergonomie plus verticale pour plaire aux cyclistes de longue distance. Il a fait l'objet d'une importante mise à jour en 2018 avec une suspension améliorée, une électronique mise à jour et un style raffiné. En 2021, elle a été rebaptisée Tracer 9 (et Tracer 9 GT), perpétuant ainsi sa réputation d'être l'une des voitures de tourisme sportives poids moyen les plus polyvalentes et les plus amusantes du marché.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir
Proven MT-09 Engine
The Tracer 900 uses Yamaha's highly reliable 847cc CP3 triple engine, known for low failure rates and long service intervals. With proper maintenance, these engines routinely exceed 60,000+ miles without major issues.
Watch the Suspension
The stock suspension is a known weak point — many owners report the forks and rear shock feel underdamped, especially for heavier riders or two-up touring. Budget for an aftermarket upgrade or check if the used bike already has one.
Strong Resale Value
The Tracer 900 holds its value exceptionally well in the adventure-touring segment, often retaining 70-75% of its value after two years. Its reputation for reliability and versatility keeps used demand consistently high.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion
"One of the smartest used sport-tourer buys available today."
$6,500-$10,500 usedThe Tracer 900 is one of those bikes that makes you question why anyone buys anything else in this class. Yamaha's CP3 triple is genuinely brilliant — smooth, characterful, and pulls hard from basically any rpm. The chassis is sharp without being punishing, and those semi-active suspension models from 2018 onwards are genuinely transformative on long days. Used examples are plentiful and typically well-maintained because owners actually love these things. That said, go in with eyes open. The original seat is genuinely awful past 90 minutes — budget for an aftermarket unit immediately. Earlier models pre-2018 lack the electronic suite you'd want for serious touring, and the screen buffeting is divisive depending on your height. Check the chain and sprockets carefully; neglected ones get hammered. Wind protection is adequate but not exceptional, so tall riders especially should sit on one before committing.
