I've got a Nitron R2, it totally transformed the handling and ride.

Thanks. I'll have a look tomorrow.

Over the winter, I bought some sequential led indicators. I've also bought the led relay, and the mounting adaptors. Before I start this weekend, can anyone tell me where the indicator relay is sited please?

Cheers Glenn. Great info. I might fit one before this years Euro trip.

I've got Andreani's. However, I bought they used, and just swapped my forks with the previous owner. This might help though. Andreani Fork Cartridge Installation How To | FJ-09 Tracer 900 Forums

I find the standard Dunlops OK, but not good. They've never given me cause for concern. However, they lack feel. In the wet, you ride waiting for something to happen, although it never has. They're not bad enough to warrant changing before they wear out. Recent road test put the Metzeler Roadtec...

I've just looked at mine. It seems to have a similar gap.

Mine does it on the overrun from about 40ish, but only if I let go of the bars. I found out when trying to do up a pocket zip. I suspect that other bikes do it too, but no-one else lets go of the bars completely. I had a similar thing with my F800GS.

I'd suggest trying the breakers, and see if you can get a spare standard seat. Then send it off to Tony Archer. Ironically, every bike I've had has given me arse ache, but not the Tracer.

Just booked my ferry. Annual trip with a mate watching a few stages of the Tour de France. France and Switzerland this year.

I can't remember exactly, but it's in the menu. Must have been quite easy, I did it! There's a part in the menu where you can choose what info is on what screen on the dash. I changed the settings while moving things about. Have a look in your handbook, that's probably where I got the info from...

The 3 different heat settings are individually adjustable. The first time I tried them 1 was barely noticeable, and 2 was too hot. I've turned 1 up, 2 down, and 3 (if I ever ride in the winter!) also down.

I've just been around France, Andorra, and Spain. Cruising at 80 - 85mph gives about 56mpg. Backing off to about 75, gives over 60. All figures off the wildly inaccurate speedo. I've no idea how far out the mpg figure is. Anyone checked it? Oddly, the speedo isn't so far out when you change it...

Me too. Had an F800GS for the last 7 years. Been all round Europe on it. Now starting the same adventures on the Tracer. Just back from France Andorra Spain watching the Tour de France.
