2026 Yamaha TRACER 9 – Raven

Model Code: MTT9TB | New Yamaha Sport Touring Motorcycle for Sale at Wood Powersports Fayetteville

Built for riders who want MT-derived CP3 performance with genuine long-distance capability, the 2026 Yamaha TRACER 9 in Raven brings sportbike agility, touring comfort, advanced electronics, and standard hard luggage together in one versatile motorcycle.

The model code MTT9TB corresponds to the 2026 Yamaha TRACER 9 in Raven. Yamaha’s official 2026 information confirms the Raven color and lists a starting MSRP of $12,599 plus a $700 destination charge.

Available at Wood Powersports Fayetteville, this TRACER 9 is an especially compelling option for Northwest Arkansas riders who want one motorcycle capable of handling weekday commuting, Ozark backroads, weekend trips, and serious highway miles.

890cc Yamaha CP3 Triple

The heart of the 2026 TRACER 9 is Yamaha’s renowned 890cc liquid-cooled DOHC inline three-cylinder CP3 engine.

With its crossplane-inspired character, the CP3 is engineered to deliver broad, linear torque through the low and middle rpm ranges while retaining the exciting acceleration and distinctive sound that make Yamaha’s three-cylinder motorcycles so engaging.

Key engine specifications include a 78.0mm x 62.1mm bore and stroke, 11.5:1 compression ratio, four valves per cylinder, electronic fuel injection, and YCC-T electronic throttle control.

For sport touring, that broad torque delivery is exactly what you want: responsive when passing, entertaining on a winding road, and flexible enough for relaxed everyday riding.

YCC-T Ride-by-Wire

The TRACER 9 features Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) with an Accelerator Position Sensor Grip.

This Ride-by-Wire system enables precise electronic throttle management while supporting the TRACER’s extensive suite of rider-assistance technologies.

Six-Speed + Assist & Slipper Clutch

Yamaha pairs the CP3 with a six-speed transmission and multiplate wet Assist & Slipper Clutch.

The assist function helps reduce clutch effort, while the slipper function helps manage back-torque during downshifts for smoother chassis behavior.

Six-Axis IMU Rider Technology

The TRACER 9 isn't simply an MT-style motorcycle with a windscreen and bags.

Yamaha equips it with a sophisticated six-axis Inertial Measurement Unit, which supports a collection of lean-sensitive electronic rider aids.

Those technologies include:

• Lean-sensitive Traction Control
• Slide Control System
• Lift Control System
• Lean-sensitive Brake Control
• Back Slip Regulator
• Yamaha Ride Control
• Yamaha Variable Speed Limiter

The electronic settings can be tailored around rider preference and conditions.

Yamaha Ride Control – YRC

Yamaha Ride Control simplifies the TRACER 9’s extensive electronic adjustability.

Three factory-configured modes—SPORT, STREET, and RAIN—provide quick access to different combinations of engine response and electronic intervention.

Riders can also create two customized settings for their own preferences.

That makes it easy to change the TRACER’s personality depending on whether you're commuting, riding in poor weather, covering highway miles, or heading toward your favorite winding roads.

Lean-Sensitive Traction Control

Using information from the six-axis IMU, the TRACER 9’s Traction Control System can account for lean angle and provides adjustable intervention.

The motorcycle also incorporates Slide Control and Lift Control, giving riders a much more sophisticated electronic safety and performance package than basic wheel-speed-only traction control.

Lean-Sensitive ABS & Brake Control

The TRACER 9 uses dual 298mm front brake discs and a 267mm rear disc with ABS.

Its Brake Control system works with the IMU to provide lean-sensitive brake intervention, while a radial Nissin front master cylinder is designed to deliver precise hydraulic pressure and braking feel.

Adjustable KYB Suspension

Yamaha equips the 2026 TRACER 9 with a 41mm KYB inverted front fork providing 5.1 inches of travel.

At the rear is a KYB single shock with 5.2 inches of travel.

Both ends provide adjustment, allowing the motorcycle to be better tailored for solo riding, passenger use, luggage, or different road conditions.

Lightweight Aluminum Deltabox Frame

The TRACER 9 uses a controlled-fill aluminum Deltabox frame engineered to combine rigidity, stability, and sportbike-style agility.

A lightweight swingarm and extended subframe help support both sporty handling and the additional rider, passenger, and luggage demands of a sport-touring motorcycle.

Yamaha SpinForged Wheels

Lightweight Yamaha SpinForged wheels help reduce rotational inertia and contribute to the TRACER 9’s agile handling.

Yamaha fits Bridgestone Battlax Sport Touring T32 tires in:

Front: 120/70ZR17
Rear: 180/55ZR17

Standard Hard Side Cases

One of the biggest advantages of the TRACER 9 is that color-matched hard side cases are standard equipment.

Yamaha says each case is capable of accommodating a full-face helmet, and the cases use a floating carrier system designed to preserve natural handling characteristics.

For commuting, overnight trips, or multi-day touring, that standard luggage adds substantial value.

Unlike optional accessories, the factory side cases are confirmed standard equipment on the 2026 TRACER 9.

Large Adjustable Windscreen

A large manually adjustable windscreen helps provide protection from wind during highway riding.

Yamaha also revised the handlebar angle and seat design around long-distance comfort.

This is where the TRACER 9 separates itself from the MT-09: it retains the excitement of the CP3 platform while giving the rider much more protection and touring practicality.

Advanced LED Cornering Lights

The TRACER 9 features full LED lighting along with next-generation LED cornering lights.

Yamaha says cornering-light brightness increases as lean angle becomes greater, helping illuminate more of the road while cornering at night.

7-Inch Full-Color TFT

A large 7-inch high-brightness full-color TFT display gives the TRACER 9 a premium touring cockpit.

The display provides three selectable themes and serves as the interface for the motorcycle’s extensive electronic settings.

Smartphone Storage + USB-C

Yamaha includes a convenient smartphone storage box with a USB-C charging socket.

That's especially useful on a motorcycle designed for long-distance travel, where keeping navigation and communication devices powered becomes important.

Adjustable Seat Height

The TRACER 9 provides an adjustable seat with two published positions:

Low: 33.3 inches
High: 33.9 inches

That gives riders some ability to tailor the ergonomics to their height and preferred riding position.

5.0-Gallon Fuel Tank

The 2026 TRACER 9 carries 5.0 gallons of fuel and Yamaha publishes an estimated 48 mpg.

Actual fuel economy will vary with speed, load, riding style, wind, traffic, maintenance, and other conditions, but the combination reinforces the motorcycle's long-distance mission.

483-Pound Wet Weight

Yamaha publishes a 483-pound wet weight for the 2026 TRACER 9.

That includes standard equipment, fluids, and a full tank of fuel.

Considering the motorcycle also includes touring bodywork and factory hard luggage, the TRACER 9 maintains a relatively athletic sport-touring package.

Raven Factory Finish

This specific 2026 Yamaha TRACER 9 is finished in Raven.

Yamaha's current U.S. inventory confirms Raven as the 2026 TRACER 9 factory color.

The dark finish complements the TRACER’s aggressive front bodywork, exposed mechanical components, sport-touring silhouette, and color-matched factory side cases.

Why Choose the 2026 Yamaha TRACER 9?

The TRACER 9 makes sense for someone who doesn't want to choose between a sport motorcycle and a touring motorcycle.

You get the exciting 890cc CP3 triple and aluminum sport chassis, but Yamaha surrounds that performance with equipment designed for real travel:

Large windscreen. Comfortable ergonomics. 5-gallon tank. Standard hard luggage. Adjustable suspension. Cornering lights. 7-inch TFT. USB-C. Sophisticated IMU electronics.

It's capable of being your commuter Monday through Friday and your road-trip motorcycle Saturday morning.

TRACER 9 vs. MT-09

The TRACER 9 and MT-09 both use Yamaha’s 890cc CP3 three-cylinder architecture, but they're designed around very different missions.

The MT-09 emphasizes stripped-down Hyper Naked performance.

The TRACER 9 adds a longer 59.1-inch wheelbase, 5-gallon fuel capacity, substantial wind protection, more passenger-oriented ergonomics, standard hard luggage, and sport-touring equipment.

Choose the MT-09 if lightweight naked-bike performance is the priority.

Choose the TRACER 9 if you want CP3 excitement with genuine travel capability.

TRACER 9 vs. TRACER 9 GT

The standard TRACER 9 is intentionally positioned as the more attainable, customizable entry into Yamaha's TRACER family.

Its biggest advantage is how much touring capability already comes standard—including hard side cases, adjustable suspension, IMU electronics, cornering lights, TFT display, and the CP3 engine—without requiring you to move immediately into a higher-spec GT configuration.

For riders who want a strong sport-touring foundation while maximizing value, the standard TRACER 9 deserves serious consideration.

Made for Northwest Arkansas

Few Yamaha motorcycles are better suited to the variety of riding available around Fayetteville and Northwest Arkansas.

Use the hard cases for your commute.

Take advantage of the wind protection on the highway.

Enjoy the CP3 triple when the road starts winding.

Carry enough gear for an overnight trip.

And use the 5-gallon tank when you're ready to put serious distance behind you.

The TRACER 9 is designed around exactly this kind of ride-anywhere versatility.
