Yamaha Tracer 9

Yamaha Tracer 9

The Yamaha Tracer 9 has a top speed of 210 km/h (estimated; manufacturer does not officially publish top speed), produces 119 hp and weighs 220 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.5/10.

Le Yamaha Tracer 9 a été introduit en 2021 en tant qu'évolution significative du Tracer 900, avec un moteur triple cylindre CP3 de 847 cm3 redessiné, un châssis mis à jour et une configuration de suspension révisée avec une suspension semi-active électronique en option sur la variante GT. Il s'appuie sur la lignée Tracer qui a débuté avec la MT-09 Tracer en 2015, se positionnant comme un poids moyen polyvalent pour le sport-touring. La variante Tracer 9 GT+ est arrivée en 2023 avec d'autres améliorations, notamment un régulateur de vitesse assisté par radar, ce qui en fait l'un des poids moyens les plus avancés de sa catégorie sur le plan technologique.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir

🔧

Rock-Solid CP3 Engine

The 890cc triple-cylinder engine is shared with the MT-09 and has a strong reliability record, often exceeding 50,000 miles with basic maintenance. Valve clearance checks every 26,600 miles keep service costs relatively low.

⚠️

Watch the Quickshifter

Some early Tracer 9 owners report inconsistent quickshifter performance, particularly on downshifts, which can be jerky in urban riding. A software update or aftermarket autoblipper often resolves the issue.

💰

Strong Resale Value

The Tracer 9 GT variant holds resale value exceptionally well due to high demand for its adventure-touring segment and included electronic package. Expect to retain 75–80% of value after the first year compared to many rivals.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion

8.5/10
Idéal pour
Commuters who weekend tour at pace

"The thinking rider's sport-tourer that embarrasses more expensive alternatives."

$8,500-$12,000 used

The Tracer 9 is one of those bikes that genuinely surprises you. It looks sporty but rides like a proper touring machine, and the CP3 triple engine is an absolute gem — that mid-range punch between 4,000-8,000rpm is addictive in a way parallel twins just can't match. Used examples from 2021 onwards are hitting realistic money now, and that makes them seriously compelling. On used examples, check the quickshifter operation carefully — early units can be clunky on downshifts. Screen vibration at motorway speeds annoyed owners until the revised mechanism arrived mid-production, so ask specifically about that. Also inspect the exhaust headers for bluing; these run hot and some owners neglect heat wrap. Suspension is adjustable and genuinely good from stock, which is rare at this price point. The riding position is near-perfect for most builds, the electronics package punches above its class, and fuel economy hovers around 50mpg realistically. It's not glamorous, but it's devastatingly competent.
