The new twin-cylinder Tracer features all-new ergonomics which make it feel like a much larger bike. The foot pegs remain in the same place as on the MT but a new rear subframe has raised the seat up by 35 mm meaning there's now more legroom, meanwhile the bars have also been raised and moved slightly backwards. These changes create a really comfortable, commanding riding position, especially when combined with the cocooning effect generated by the new 17 litre fuel tank (three liters larger than the MT-07's), and the subtle wind-cheating effects of the manually adjustable screen, small hand guards and one-piece bikini fairing.
