Pros and Cons in comparison

Yamaha Tracer 7 2022

If you are looking for a motorbike under 10,000 euros with an excellent engine, cool looks and comfort, the Yamaha Tracer 7 is the right choice. The low weight and adjustable chassis make the Tracer 700 a real cornering machine. Purists will be pleased to know that, apart from ABS, there are no electronic aids, but when you look at the competition, this no longer seems quite state-of-the-art.

powerful engine

agile handling

adjustable chassis

comfortable ergonomics

cool look

large selection of accessories

Load change at low revs

weak brake

hardly any electronics

little wind protection compared to the competition.
