Electronic throttle, YRC riding modes and switchable TCS
YCC-T (Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle) unlocks a new generation of rider aids and contributes to an even more linear power delivery. Yamaha Ride Control (YRC) gives you the choice of two throttle maps and switchable traction control, with the option of a customisable YRC mode to tailor the TRACER 7 GT’s performance to your exact needs.
Touring-grade suspension with remote pre-load adjustment
New adjustable 41mm ‘upside down’ forks offer high levels of control and feel, resulting in enhanced road-holding while complementing the TRACER 7 GT’s image as the ultimate CP2 sport tourer. A monocross linked-type rear shock, customisable for rebound damping and preload with remote adjustment enables quick fine-tuning when carrying luggage or a pillion.
Cruise Control for long-distance comfort
The TRACER 7 GT is equipped with Cruise Control allowing you to relax over the long touring miles and arrive at the twisty roads refreshed and ready to unleash the CP2’s thrilling torque. Available from third gear and above 40km/h, it can be adjusted in increments of 1km/h or 10 km/h, depending on the road situation.
Revised chassis and swingarm with increased rigidity
The TRACER 7 GT’s high tensile steel backbone chassis provides improved rigidity and enhanced stability, even with fully loaded side cases or a pillion. The 40mm longer swingarm is designed to balance seamlessly with the updated front forks, enhancing confidence in high-speed corners while retaining the bike’s agile, fun-to-ride character.
Larger 18L ergonomic fuel tank
Unleashing the TRACER 7 GT’s touring prowess to cover long miles just got easier with a large 18L fuel tank, sculpted for an excellent fit to make mounting and dismounting effortless.
5-inch TFT display with smartphone connectivity, navigation and ergonomic switchgear

Full map and turn by turn navigation is available through the free Garmin StreetCross app, all of which can be controlled through the new ergonomic switchgear.
Touring ready with hard side cases and centre stand
The new GT is equipped with full size hard side cases as standard which can fit a helmet, and are mounted by one-piece aluminum stays featuring a floating damping system to minimize vibrations. Luggage capacity can be expanded with an optional top case, while a new center stand is included to allow easy maintenance and loading.
Radially mounted 4-piston dual front disc brakes
Providing next level stopping power even with fully-loaded side cases and a pillion, the new TRACER 7 GT features large twin discs gripped by radially mounted 4-piston brake calipers. The design delivers strong and consistent braking performance thanks to the increased rigidity, ensuring forces are equally distributed under heavy braking.
Torque-rich 690cc EU5+ CP2 engine
At the TRACER 7 GT's heart beats the characterful 690cc CP2 parallel-twin. Renowned for smooth and powerful torque delivery, the latest EU5+ upgrades boost pulling power and deliver an even more addictive exhaust note. A new A&S (Assist and Slipper) clutch ensures excessive engine braking during sportier riding is smoothed out for greater control and feel.
Adjustable GT-spec seat and improved ergonomics
The TRACER 7 GT’s wider handlebars and adjustable ‘GT spec’ two-part seat creates a more commanding, confidence-inspiring ride. Taller riders can raise the seat by 20mm while maintaining the accessible 845mm standard height. Pillions also get an upgrade with a larger, more comfortable seat and enhanced pillion assist grips for a secure, relaxed ride.
GT-spec heated grips and footpegs
The TRACER 7 GT is equipped with fully-integrated heated grips to ensure excellent rider comfort when the temperature drops, while both rider and passenger footpegs also feature durable rubber-inset footpegs to minimise vibration and maximise comfort over long distances.
