Sold my SuperTenere a while ago, very nice bike but to heavy for me. If it had come in 65 kg less I would have kept it.
I wish they had made the Tracer as a lighter XT850Z instead.
Started out looking for a lighter bike and my thoughts went for FZ8 and MT09. But then I spotted the Tracer. I fell for it
right away and especially the Race Blu one. Tested one at the dealer and it was only one big issue I didn´t like, maybe
nothing to do to fix it, the angle of legs towards the pegs. Not at all as the ST I liked so much. More like a R1 I would say.
Maybe I could live with it, what are you guys thinking of the leg angle going for daytrips at maximum 1000km´s with the Tracer?
Been thinking a lot of what to do to personalize it and there is some to do. Screen, seat, handguards, rear end and the
most important, stand up driving for long distancies, pegs down and handlebar up.
After all that I found this forum and read a lot of negative things with the Tracer.
Cam chain Tensioner still not fixed, gearbox issues and wobbleing tendencies as the worst things. WTF?
Please convince me not to have seconds thoughts about buying this nice looking bike.
Thanks.
