How does Tracer 700 compare to MT09? Everything same except smaller engine?
I haven't ridden the MT07 but I would think they are completely different bikes (performance, weight, handling, etc).

I've ridden both and they definitely very different animals.
It's definitely a horses for courses kind of thing.
I'd take the 700 if all I wanted was a short distance commuter that I could wheelie and hoon about on at weekends
The MT09 is more the touring, mile munching wannabe sport bike thats silky smooth with power everywhere
I'm sure you could do long distance on the 700 but personally the vibey engine would annoy me. The MT09 on the other hand has power delivery as smonth as butter so that would be a joy to ride long distance
So really depends what youd want it for
