I guess we all need to sell out and start a new forum. That Tracer might be the new trend... Saves me from needing a new helmet.

The FZ09's and FJ09's have been a great value.
I hope Yamaha keeps that in mind with all the new doodads added.

 Looks like a dogs breakfast, its like the chitty chitty bang bang of bikes and its about to kick out a couple wings between all those sharp edges. Although it has many modern attributes its still a down grade from the FJ in my opinion depending on how one rides. Reminds me of the FJforever member who sold out, I could never sell my FJ and will own it until my exit from the planet, thats FJ forever.
