tank

Has anybody used magnetic tank bags on the Tracer? Are there any problems or gotchas to be aware of?

Like the tracer, hope to get a test ride soon. Few things concern me, the wind noise and the plastic/carbon bits below the fuel tank, don't like them. don't tell the wife! Happy biker from Northern Ireland, anyone else from these parts? Peace (is this verification required all the time?, if...

I have a Baglux tank harness in black, in new condition for sale. The retail price is £115. Will sell for £50 plus postage (£6) or collect from Newcastle upon Tyne area

I bought a GIVI quick lock tank bag for the Tracer last week and installed it (I think the tank fitting kit is BF 23). Used it with no load and it was OK, but a couple of days ago I used it loaded and it came off while riding. Did some pushing and pulling and it didn't stay. I took it back to...

Just come back from my first trip away, huge smile on my face, properly fell in love with the machine, does all I could ask of it, comfortably. Played it cheap and got the soft bag stays with a pair of Givi soft panniers I already had. Worked a treat but used my old magnetic map bag for the...

This either happened after 1st service or for gearbox recall, I imagine it was when tank lifted they pulled it up high instead of disconnecting the drain pipes and then didn't ensure back down properly seems like they are caught on something under tank. I have a pic when got bike showing them...

Hey everyone, So I ordered a black R&G radiator guard which will hopefully arrive in a week. I then bought some second hand Yamaha 'Side Radiator Guards' of E-bay, Obviously you've all seen the side guards before, they're silver and have the diagonal slashes along the...

Hi all, Had my Tracer a week now. Bit of a false start as I only got 79 miles on it before I noticed fluid coming out of the breather pipes when it was left on main stand. (Smells of petrol but leaves a small oil puddle) Took it in this morning and they reckon no biggie, just keep an eye on...

Hi all. As some know, i highsiden my MT some days ago. I have since rested and nursed my two broken elbows. It´s starting to get better, so the bike is going to the mechanic tomorrow. It´s pretty banged up: Forks bended, tank dented, exhaust bended and engine cases scraped. I was thinking i...

Tank brimmed ,5 bars showing on the gauge,90 mile at sensible speeds,70+ no 3 figures had to get off and get some motion lotion,£15 worth of shell super duper stuff at 1.20 a litre,when I got off the motorway the last bar was blinking like a gudun ,all done in top gear ,I think we're gonna need...

Cab anyone recommend a clear see thru protector for the tank without spoiling the look of the centre stripe. Ive seen bikes with protectors fitted but they look awful on a base stripe tank. Any thoughts or pics would be great

Since my aussie ecu reflash did not disable my air injection system and the backfiring and popping at decel thru my akra carbon pipe was at times a bit extreme. I have removed my AIS and installed Graves blockoff plates I purchased thru Motomummy in the States. It took me about three hours to...

At the recent bike jumble at Stafford, i got talking to the guys from Dream Machine about matching the MT-09 Blazin orange paint, they informed me they have done, as they do the paint for a Plastic parts company that do plastic parts for the MT-09. A week or so later i was passing Dream Machine...

Hi Has anyone removed the sticker from the tank and if so did it leave any marks on the tank and also if you did remove it did you use any sort of label remover? Cheers

Has anyone got any idea where I can get the stripe for the Tank, NO mine isn't damaged, I just want one for a little project... Or will I get a match at a Sign/graphics Wizard shop.

Slight change in circumstances and also moving house / longer commute ahead i had a go on a 990 Adventure this afternoon as a commuter replacement for the MT. Nothing set in stone. but seeing the amount of MT's on Autotrader at very varied prices its difficult to gauge how much mine would be...

I needed a tank cover to mount the bagster bags I already own so I bought one for 130euros and (easily/sloppy) mounted it. Here are some photos I will try to upload better quality photos later. mt09_abs_raceblu - MT09.org Photo Gallery Bagster Yamaha MT-09 1661A is the exact model and color...
