Have a great time on the ZZR. I was thinking of going in the opposite direction and I am weirdly drawn to the MT09 Tracer. Anyone had a test ride yet?

Yep, took one out a couple of months ago. Great bike, but I preferred the naked.

Comfy, as quick as you need, good handling, and its not bad looking. Take one out and see for yourself.

Had mine aweek or so now and apart from the annoying break in for the first 600 miles im very happy with it. its great for commuting very light and the other half loves the room and big grab handles.and I think it looks great even the square back so hopefully a keeper.

I just don't get the reason you need a huge barge like that,,ZZR1400,,or Busa,,been put with a few, they just seems to bulky compared to our bikes.

You got to round them up and come up then we head west into them hills, right through to the coast, great scenery,amazing roads and not too much traffic.

I saw a few on Sunday,,lots of plastic,,is there an engine under that,,too big for tight stuff,when a Fazer is so chuckable,,no doubt it goes very very fast on the best roads for it, just not my idea of a Sunday play bike.As i said ,my mate has one ,but their again he likes pies,,he is about 18-19 stone at least,maybe if you are a big person then the bike has to fit.Dont know really.
