At the Yamaha's GT heart is Yamaha's exceptional 689cc, water-cooled, crossplane twin. This mid-sized mill puts down around 74 horsepower and 50 feet of torque, which is pretty respectable in a bike that weighs shy of 450 pounds. With the Tracer's generous 4.5 gallon tank and the engine's natural efficiency, the new GT will get roughly 66 miles to the gallon.

The GT features the base Tracer's frame—which uses the engine as a stressed member—and aluminum swingarm. The base bike's suspension has been specially tuned to provide better handling for serious business sport touring. The GT has some respectable brakes with dual-channel ABS, but unfortunately no traction control or user-selectable ride modes.

Along with the touring-tuned suspension, the GT gets a selection of ergonomic and storage improvements to upgrade its touring bona fides. The bike comes standard with a more supportive "comfort seat", a taller windscreen, knuckle guards mounted on the handlebars to keep the wind off your hands, and a set of spacious hard bags for carrying your luggage.
