Standard equipment on the Tracer 9 GT+ Y-AMT includes radar controlled adaptive cruise control, brake assist, Vehicle Hold Control and Yamaha’s innovative Y-AMT transmission, which allows riders to switch between automatic and manual shifting at the press of a button.
Tracer 9 GT+ Y-AMT transforms from ‘sports’ to ‘touring’ in a way other motorcycles can only dream of, making it the perfect companion with which to take on the roads of life.
Experience a new way of riding with the choice of fully automatic (AT) or manual (MT) shifting via a finger operated see-saw switch. Y-AMT works in perfect harmony with Yamaha Ride Control (YRC) electronic features to elevate the riding experience and deliver the perfect engine and transmission characteristics to suit the riding conditions.
In a world first in the motorcycle sector, the adaptive Matrix LED headlight provides illumination like never before. Linked to a camera built into the fairing, the system detects surrounding traffic conditions and automatically controls individual LEDs within the matrix to deliver a shaped beam of light to maintain optimal illumination.
The 7” TFT incorporates three themes and comes with Garmin LinkBox connectivity to provide integrated navigation, while calls, messages and music can be received through the Yamaha MyRide App and controlled using the five-way joystick on the left hand switch cube. A dedicated integrated storage includes a USB-A outlet for charging on the go.
The KYB’s KADS (KYB Actimatic Damper System) electronic suspension is the most advanced system found on any Yamaha production motorcycle. Governed by the six-axis IMU and ECU, the adjustable units are linked to the YRC mode and dynamically adjust damping to deliver an optimal riding experience in a variety of load and road conditions.
Tracer 9 GT+ Y-AMT offers a highly customisable riding experience thanks to Yamaha Ride Control (YRC). Three factory settings come preloaded (SPORT, STREET and RAIN) while two custom maps can be programmed through the dashboard menu or using the MyRide app, helping the rider choose their preferred engine power characteristics and electronic interventions.
Working in conjunction with the Y-AMT and KADS suspension, the radar controlled cruise control reduces fatigue by maintaining the correct speed gear and distance to vehicle in front when active. Radar also facilitates blind spot detection, which flashes a warning in the mirror when vehicle is detected in the rider’s blind spot.
