Lightech for Tracer 9 GT


Internationally respected Italian parts and accessory manufacturer Lightech has designed and tested a new line of accessories for the new Yamaha Tracer 9 GT - showing that the company is not always and only focused on Supersport bikes, but eclectic in its choice of new challenges.

Model-specific design products include precision CNC-machined complete and adjustable rearsets in 7075, T6 heat-treated aluminium with three possible configurations: basic with fixed footpegs, “W” version with folding footpegs and the “R” version equipped with carbon heel guards, titanium bolts, high-quality bearings and folding footpegs. The rearset allows both standard and reverse shifting. 



A complete suite of spare parts and accessories allows the customisation (and service) of Lightech rearsets.

The chain adjuster seen here is available in black, red, gold and cobalt colours, and allows a more precise and easier adjustment compared to the standard Yamaha design - simply by turning the knob located at the end of the chain adjuster. Each click corresponds to a shift/moving of 0.25 mm. A metric scale is engraved on both sides of the chain adjuster to make the adjustment more ergonomic.

Lightech wheel axle protection for the Tracer 9 GT is available in black, red, gold and cobalt; the ultra-light licence plate holder kit, with holes for OEM or aftermarket LED turn signal, is customised with coloured washers on the sides, and a similar customisation can also be seen on the handguards - where the gold of the Lightech washer attracts attention.

The accessories line includes also frame protections equipped with an aluminium ring, a magnesium bushing to reduce vibrations and coloured antishock rubber. There are also newly designed fuel tank caps (spin locking or quick release), a choice of oil filler caps, colour-match or contrast colour hardware and much more.

All Lightech parts are designed, tested and manufactured in-house at its headquarters facility north of Treviso, Italy.
