The 2020 Yamaha Tracer 900 GT gets a colour update while pricing
remains the same at RM 58,888 recommended retail, excluding road tax, insurance
and registration. The new colour options for the Tracer 900 GT are Reddish
Copper dan Midnight Silver.
Designed as a sports tourer, the Tracer
900 GT comes with the engine from Yamaha’s MT-09, a three-cylinder mill
displacing 847 cc. Mated to a six-seed gearbox, the Tracer 900 GT produces 115
PS at 10,000 rpm and 87.5 Nm of torque at 8,500 rpm.
For braking, a twin set of 298 mm diameter
discs on the front wheel do the job while the rear wheel has a 245 mm diameter
disc, with two-channel ABS. As befits the ‘GT’ name tag, the Tracer 900 GT
comes equipped with a quickshifter, cruiser control, fully-adjustable
suspension, heated bar grips as well as a TFT-LCD instrument panel resembling
the unit on the YZF-R1 super bike.
Fuel for the Tracer 900 GT is carried in a
18.7-litre tank and 17-inch wheels indicate the bike is oriented more towards
the touring side of things. Rider conveniences include a slip and assist
clutch, two-level traction control that can be disabled, three ride modes and
manually-adjustable windshield.
