Motorcycle specifications YamahaTracer 7 GT 2025 Pockets of mischief

A beautiful screen, evening colors and lots of info right under your nose... The Tracer 7s have taken their dashboard to the next level. They've (finally) caught up with the current trend, with 5-inch connected digital displays. What's more, the motorcycle and a smartphone can communicate via the MyRide app.

In 2023, the bike's equipment is enhanced by the addition of (rather stylish) side tank protectors, a USB port and a rear luggage rack - always a very practical appendage.
The Tracer mid-size bikes also think about better braking by opting for larger discs, now measuring 298 mm. Yamaha takes advantage of this update to re-tune the fork settings and pre-cab the machine so that it can be fitted with a shifter (optional).

Suitcases, bubble, seat, accessories... We can't possibly limit the Tracer 7 GT to these words alone, to this exhaustive and soulless list, to this serious vanity. Is this GT label usurped? Does this enlarged stern look like an ennobled machine? Does this mix of roadster, tourer and cruiser see the slightest escapade as quickly as the driver?

We'll stop the tirades there. Let's concentrate on the GT "pack" that has been grafted onto the little trail-routier-un-peu-sport. The recipe has earned its durability, as Yamaha used to offer the little Tracer GT only in odd-numbered years. This phase is based on the redesigned version of this machine.

The taste for travel is identical to the previous generation. First of all, a good windshield that breaks the wind with a much larger surface area. Over 9 cm more height and 7 cm more width. Cervical vertebrae will appreciate this.
The neck is done. Now it's time to think about the buttocks, which may or may not be tanned by the miles and the quality of the seat. On the Tracer 7 GT, a comfort saddle with topstitching takes care of the rider. Especially his bottom.

next , a pair of suitcases and their fixings. These are the City models, capable of carrying the weekend's minimum. With 20 liters each, there's no room for a full-face helmet. There's about as much space as in a small microwave oven. If you manage well, you can fit a laptop, a shirt, a pair of pants, a pair of shoes, 2 pairs of socks, your wallet, glasses and a photo of your mother-in-law. You can fit a thick wool winter sweater in the other suitcase.

All this to say that the Tracer 7 GT allows you to carry only the essentials, but is more practical than two backpacks. It's an accessory-equipped bike; no relation to the Tracer 9 GT, which is a very specific version of the 900, with pilot-operated suspension and cornering lights that the standard Tracer 9 doesn't have.

Underneath the package, we find the MT-07 in its touring dress, with its 73.4 hp CP2 twin, its healthy and fun chassis, its reduced electronics that allow unfiltered enjoyment of motorcycle riding, and its trail-SUV simplicity and comfort.
