Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to riders with at least some prior experience, as the punchy triple engine and sharp chassis reward confident throttle control.
Purpose	A versatile sport-touring machine designed for riders who want engaging backroad performance combined with the practicality of a windscreen and upright seating for longer journeys.
Rider Fit	The 815mm seat height and moderate 210kg wet weight make it manageable for most adult riders, though shorter riders may need to tiptoe at a stop.
Character	Characterful and lively, with a torquey in-line triple that delivers strong midrange pull and a distinctive exhaust growl, wrapped in an agile aluminium chassis.
Not Ideal For	Not ideal for off-road adventures or riders seeking a plush, softly sprung long-distance cruiser, as its sporty setup prioritizes handling over rugged terrain capability or ultimate comfort.

Units

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 815mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 Yamaha MT-09 Tracer, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
