It's unbelievable how wide the range of this motorbike is. When needed, it looks like a cheeky sports machine with which one likes to scrape the footrests. On the other hand, it glides confidently along the motorway. The Tracer 9GT+ is a great all-rounder!

Fun, rev-happy engine

Agile handling

Top quickshifter

Practical touring equipment

Well-functioning adaptive cruise control, which is a pleasure to use in practice

Huge, easy-to-read TFT display

Good operation of the electronics.

Vibrations on the footrests

very cumbersome navigation integration into the display

filigree-looking windshield that wobbles noticeably at high speeds.
