Happy belated birthday Brenda, I haven't really been on here since I got my Tracer, I hope you are happy and healthy, you have my email address, drop me a line!

four MILLION miles on a Kawasaki??? :eek:

I had Akrapovic on my 2004 and they are still on their website.

That Puig screen made a world of difference over the stock screen.

Here's the best solution.

I take back that earlier comment, we have a stereotype winner! I am a BIKER, I never drink and ride, I ride a Yamaha (WTF is the accepted brand?), I ride safely and wear top brand safety gear or does that make me a poser? BTW all bikers are motorcyclists by definition.

Stereotype much? I ride with an MC, no choppers, all sport or touring bikes, some of us carrying a couple of extra pounds but does that make us lesser riders? I think not.

That looks just like my old one but I had no black, although there was definitely a darker blue. You say yours is a 2006 but here the 2006 had black frame, engine and wheels, mine was a 2004.

Have you measured to check if the voltage changes from 12V to 0V on the high beam line when you toggle the bar switch?

yeah there is a clutch lever but the end knob is missing. You can see it on the pic showing the left side.

It's not going to be easy to ride with the right foot peg missing...

I switched from a Fazer to an MT-09 Tracer in 2017 and I love the styling, it is not your everyday looking bike and I get lots of comments about it, all positive. I looked at the XSR900 at the time but my wife didn't feel comfortable on that short seat (we ride 99% two-up) and I couldn't...

Yamaha has announced that the R6 is to be discontinued after the 2020 model year. Other bikes to get the chop are the VMAX, WR250R and SMAX. The end of an era. This is going to leave a big hole in the SBK World Supersport field as well as other 600cc race classes all over the world and...

I have posted in this thread before but this is my 2004 just before my final ride, delivering it to my brother in law.

Here it stands for Break My Windows because of the number of BMWs involved in carjackings.

We have had hail that goes through roof tiles, car windscreens, damages airliners luckily this is rare but tennis ball size, sure, it happens. Back in November 2016 we had a huge storm here that caused chaos, people drowned in their cars on the freeway because the water rose so fast and the...

Based on my 16 years experience with it, the stock Fazer was fine for me and the way I ride, all I changed was the pipe. If you want to go faster, buy a faster bike. I sold my Fazer and bought a Tracer, again all I have changed is the pipe, it is fine for my requirements. My comments are just...

Moral of the story: Yamaha spend millions on research and development, it works fine stock, leave it alone.

It's a pity this doesn't show the speed, during the last few GPs we have seen riders at 60 degrees lean angle doing only 80km/h, the levels of grip and physics are literally right on the edge.

well this is a useful thread.
