I have the MT09 Tracer and absolutely love it.
I have done a lot of touring over many years and this is the most comfortable tourer I have ridden.
The upright riding position puts no strain on the wrists or neck at all.
It is very light and quick but also carries lots of luggage really well.
The only thing I have had to change is the brake and clutch levers as they are waaaay too far from the bars for my small hands and I needed something more adjustable so I could bring them closer to the bars.
It also has an 18 Litre tank so definitely more suited to touring than the MT09 (if touring is your thing).

I could change my opinion, but then we'd both be wrong.
