So hats off to the new Tracer 700 as a result of it’s been the right tool for riding round the outside of all the overweight tourers and Lyrca-clad chicanes congesting the Dolomite’s several mountain passes.
The engine is identical in each specification and output to it of the naked MT-07, but the air intake and exhaust are revised so as to fulfill Euro4. With a useable 74bhp and punchy 51ftlb of torsion, it created straightforward work of powering out of nadgery, steep pin bends.
The new twin-cylinder Tracer options all-new bioengineering that build it desire a way larger bike. The foot pegs stay within the same place as on the MT however a brand new rear subframe has raised the seat up by 35mm that means there is currently additional legroom, meantime the bars have conjointly been raised and stirred slightly backwards. These changes produce a very snug, commanding riding position, particularly once combined with the seclusion result generated by the new 17-litre fuel tank (three litres larger than the MT-07's), and therefore the refined wind-cheating effects of the manually adjustable screen, little hand guards and one-piece two-piece fairing.
The other key amendment is that the Tracer's metallic element swingarm in situ of the naked's steel unit. it has been extended by 50mm to supply larger stability once absolutely loaded, and conjointly has the result of sterilisation the MT-07 platform's instinct to wheelie. The suspension's conjointly been reworked, with the front fork running a revised spring rate to address the supplemental weight of the fairing, also as longer travel for additional traveling comfort. The rear shock is additionally physically longer with additional travel and revised linkages. It offers a ride that's well-damped while not lacking management, meantime the elongated distance and augmented rake have done nothing to spoil the bike's lightsomeness. if truth be told it tips into bend with unimaginable ease.
With a completely fuelled weight of simply 196kg, the lightest bike in its category, the gutsy twin-cylinder Tracer has been a blast on these barmy bends informed the top of Europe, and because of the sensible Michelin Pilot Road four tyres, I’ve ne'er given an edge a reversal, terribly consoling through the biblical electrical storm we tend to rode through earlier.
With a formidable vary of accessories – like baggage, screens, heated grips, comfort/heated seats, crash bars, fog lamps, 12v sockets and additional - glorious 200-mile and tank vary, and excellent comfort, the Tracer 700 ticks all the traveling boxes. however with its low weight, composed suspension, easy-to-use engine and lightsomeness, it is the good fun bike too, and proves that sports tourers do not ought to be huge, large and high-ticket to place a smile on your face.
