2025 TRACER 7 & TRACER 7 GT: A NEW ERA OF SPORT TOURING PERFORMANCE
POSTED: 13/05/2025
The 2025 Yamaha TRACER 7 and TRACER 7 GT are set to redefine the middleweight Sport Touring segment with a bold new look and a host of exciting technological upgrades that enhance both long-distance performance and comfort.
Developed for riders seeking a thrilling everyday sporty ride and the ability to tackle challenging commutes and long-distance tours, the new TRACER 7 series combines the latest Yamaha technology with refined chassis and ergonomic enhancements to offer a dynamic and exhilarating ride with unmatched levels of comfort and practicality.
DYNAMIC NEW TRACER LOOK: THE PERFECT BALANCE OF STYLE AND FUNCTION
The 2025 TRACER 7 and TRACER 7 GT showcase Yamaha’s Roads of Life philosophy, blending sleek next-generation sporty aesthetics with practical comfort-focussed functionality.
The new compact forward-motion design exudes energy as if ready to spring into action even at a standstill, while the TRACER’s presence has been honed with striking position lights that fade-in on engine start and create a unique threedimensional effect for a premium look. The LED headlights, framed by sleek bodywork and subtly covered by side cowling, maintain a subtle profile while the slim rear taillight complements the compact tail, adding depth and reinforcing the TRACER 7’s dynamic and refined aesthetics.
YCC-T AND YRC CUSTOMISABLE RIDING MODES FOR AN ELEVATED RIDE
For 2025, the TRACER 7 and TRACER 7 GT come equipped with the advanced Y-CCT (Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle), providing precise throttle response for a more intuitive ride. Coupled with YRC (Yamaha Ride Control) modes, riders can select from multiple riding modes to suit different road conditions and riding styles.
YCC-T also facilitates the switchable traction control, and Cruise Control is also a standard feature helping to reduce fatigue and increase comfort over long-distance touring. The TRACER 7 models come preset with Sport and Street riding modes, with a third Custom setting which can be defined by the user via the TFT dashboard or the free MyRide app.
LATEST TORQUE-RICH 690CC EU5+ CP2 ENGINE
At the heart of the TRACER 7 and TRACER 7 GT beats the latest torque-rich 690cc EU5+ CP2 engine, designed for an exhilarating yet versatile ride. Delivering 54.0 kW at 8,750 rpm and 68.0 Nm of pulling power at 6,500 rpm, this torque-rich engine provides effortless smile-inducing acceleration combined and usable everyday grunt that both new and experienced riders can unleash.
ENHANCED CHASSIS AND TOURING-GRADE SUSPENSION FOR EXCELLENT HANDLING
The TRACER 7 and TRACER 7 GT raise riding confidence to the next level with a range of chassis and suspension refinements designed for better stability, responsiveness, and all-day comfort.
The high-tensile steel backbone frame has been redesigned and tuned for increased torsional, longitudinal, and lateral rigidity for excellent riding stability. Whether fully loaded with side cases and a top case or going solo, the latest frame maintains the TRACER 7’s signature lightweight and sporty character.
ENHANCED COMFORT AND ERGONOMICS FOR LONG-DISTANCE TOURING
A revised riding position creates a more natural and relaxed posture, enhancing comfort over long distances while the handlebar grips are now 30mm higher and 25mm wider on each side, providing a spacious feel and a more commanding ‘shoulders back’ riding position. Additionally, the redesigned handlebar crown features a riser, further enhancing rigidity and weight balance for a more planted ride.
Over on the TRACER 7 GT, a special seat surface and thicker inner cushioning provide a signature GT feel and additional comfort.
To raise the touring credentials further, the pillion seat has been extended by 40mm to give passengers more room while redesigned assist grips help increase comfort.
Down at the boots, the TRACER 7’s footrests have also been updated for a more modern and cohesive design, now matching the GT’s tandem rider footrests. On the TRACER 7 GT, both rider and passenger footrests feature rubber inserts for enhanced comfort and reduced vibration.
INCREASED TOURING RANGE AND WIND PROTECTION
The fuel tank has been redesigned and expanded to 18L, allowing for longer rides between fuel stops while maintaining a slim profile for excellent handling. This new shape also improves the fit with the rider’s lower body to make mounting and dismounting the bike as easy as possible.
NEW-GENERATION SWITCHGEAR INTERFACE AND AUTO CANCEL INDICATORS
The TRACER 7’s electronics have been further refined with the addition of a new 5- inch full-colour TFT display, providing clear, vibrant information and seamless smartphone connectivity, which includes turn-by-turn navigation via the free Garmin StreetCross app. To enhance usability, the bike now features new handlebar switches with an intuitive layout designed using advanced Flexible Printed Circuit Boards (FPCBs) to maintain a compact design which present functions naturally to the thumb and forefinger.

Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Fiveways Motorcycle Centre LTD to act as a credit broker, not a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders, and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.
We are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor.
Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives. If you purchase a vehicle, in the majority of cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase.
Different lenders pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement.
