New 2021 Yamaha Tracer 9 GT Touring Motorcycle

2021 Yamaha Tracer 9 GT, 2021 Yamaha Tracer 9 GT TURN UP YOUR EXPERIENCE

Featuring an all-new engine and premium sport touring features that come standard, the most versatile touring partner for when you’re commuting or riding across the mountains.

Features may include:

• All-New 890cc Liquid-Cooled 3-Cylinder DOHC Fuel-Injected Engine

The 2021 Tracer 9 GT features a newly developed 890cc liquid-cooled 3-cylinder, DOHC, 4-valve-per-cylinder fuel-injected (YCC-T) engine with a downdraft intake. The bore × stroke of 78 mm × 62.1 mm and 11.5:1 compression ratio provide outstanding torque with strong power delivery characteristics. Almost all of the fundamental parts of the engine, from the pistons and connecting rods to the crankshaft, camshafts and crankcase, have all been redesigned. The combustion efficiency results in an impressive 9% improvement as well as an increased fuel efficiency to 49 MPG.

• New Lightweight Aluminum Frame

To achieve both sporty performance and excellent riding comfort, the new Tracer 9 GT adopts a newly developed lightweight aluminum frame with model-specific tuning. Using the latest Controlled Filling (CF) aluminum die-casting technology, this frame features the thinnest sections ever on a Yamaha die-cast frame at just 1.7 mm (thinnest section on the 2020 Tracer 900’s frame is 3.5 mm).

ENGINE

• Redesigned Fuel Delivery System

The fuel delivery system has been completely redesigned. On former Tracer 9 GTs, the fuel injectors were attached directly to the cylinder head, but the fuel injectors of the 2021 Tracer 9 GT are now attached to the throttle valve side of the throttle bodies. The injectors now spray at the back of the intake valve heads to promote atomization of the fuel and reduce adhesion of fuel particles to the port walls, producing outstanding combustion efficiency. The throttle valve is operated using the Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) electronic system which has been widely proven on YZF series models as well as the earlier Tracer 9 GT models.

• Lightweight Forged Pistons

The lightweight forged pistons allow for smooth, high-revving power.

CHASSIS/SUSPENSION

• Strong Steel Subframe

The 2021 Tracer 9 GT’s steel subframe ensures excellent straight-line stability and cornering ability, even when outfitted with a large fuel tank and three hard rear luggage cases.

• Redesigned Lightweight, High-Rigidity Swingarm

The Tracer 9 GT features a new, longer swingarm that is now located inside of the frame. It has a boxed construction formed by welding together aluminum plates. The new swingarm helps achieve both high rigidity and lighter weight, conveying the feeling of drive force to the rider and aiding with excellent traction at high speeds and when cornering.
