The only negative comment I could possibly make towards your reviews Mark is to bemoan why you still have a relatively small number of subscribers. For the average motorcyclist, which must constitute the vast majority, you provide the most comprehensive and informative motorcycle reviews on this channel. I can only assume that you cater to a select few or that many have just not yet heard of you. Either way, please keep the reviews coming Mark as they are a pleasure to watch. Thanks very much.

Picking mine up within the next week or so and watching this has just confirmed I’m making the right choice! Very rarely hear bad things about this bike but your review was brilliant 👌🏽

Another excellent review Mark, great to see you back on the road again. Happy riding and keep them coming.

Quite liked the older model and love the look of this one. The Tracer in my eyes is an MT-07 made for grown ups! Love the colour Yamaha use for the engines cases as well. Great review.

This is the 1st review that mentions engine vibrations in a meaningful way- well done! I have a built in suspicion of parallel twin engines mainly because of the 360 throw cranks, but this encourages me to test the bike & add to my shortlist.

Thanks for another excellent review Mark. I've always enjoyed your reviews both in terms of presentation and enthusiasm! These mid-capacity bikes certainly offer frugal fun and I think are ideal for real world riding. Another consideration these days might be the environmental impact of any bike we might buy and with no compromise in performance these modern parallel twins offer great MPG. I ride a Honda CB500x which will do most tasks reasonably well and return between 65 - 85 MPG. The Yamaha looks great and certainly seemed to go well too.

Love your reviews Mark, I'm from Bournemouth and regularly ride all the same roads you do!

Love the looks of this bike. Will definitely consider one. Thanks Mark for another good video.....Sal : )

Had one of these for a day when my bike was being serviced,was lovely machine,great all rounder.steve.

Hi Mark. I have a 2017 MT07 from new and have done 16,000 miles now. Several touring trips (larger front sprocket by one tooth) in GB and Europe with the furthest one to Split in Croatia. That engine is absolutly perfect and you nailed it about the 4000/6000 rev range being the sweet spot. You are underestimating the fuel economy though as I regularly get 80+ MPG if I stay within the speed limits. I would have liked the tracer but with a 30" inside leg that was not possible as I was on tiptoe. Love your indepth reviews. Ride safe mate. Mike.

Love the way you review bikes! If you can please have a review on the 2019-2020 CBR500R. Much appreciated

Another good review. Keep 'em coming!

Fully agreed with your review Mark; I took that very same bike from Crescent in Verwood out for a test ride a couple of days ago! I liked (almost) everything about it, with the exception of the screen (I would definitely get a touring screen). Beyond that, it's a lovely and nimble bike!

wish we had it in the states, without the flat paint on the tank. Another good review Mark.

This is my favourite looking Sports Tourer, don't like the Pre -2020 models nearly as much. I couldn't afford it unfortunately so had to go for a 17 plate Versys 650. I love the Versys to bits but honestly this bikes front face is so beautiful. Hopefully one day I can jump on one!

Another great review Mark!

Great review Mark didn't realise you had covered this one.

Nice review. I was between Honda cb500x and YamahaTracer700, but I think I made up my mind. I'm gonna order this. Thank you.

great review of the tracer 700 i viewed a few reviews on the tracer and the v strom 650 looked at both sat on both and decided to buy the tracer 700 2020 model best thing iv done love the bike and a great review from you mark and i do agree about the screen which i intend on replacing at some point ........

Starting to become a fan of your reviews, very informative and real world opinion which makes bike buying that bit easier. Any chance you could do a review of the new S100XR ?

Excellent review, the new tracer 700 looks great, you don't need rider modes, had them on other bikes but never used them.

Great review again Mark.Still waiting for Tenere 1200 tho.

Thx Mark, it’s a fantastic bike, and that’s the reason I just got one☝🏻

Superb bike - great review as usual.

Looks good looking forward to the 2021 review

Can you make a review of benelli BN 600gt ? There aren't many reviews in Europe.

I like it alot, '19 cb500x owner.

Design digno de uma espaçonave!Muito linda!Muito top.Fico cheio de dúvidas perante tantas beldades!!!

The CP crank Engine and the light weight make this little bike a beauty, great post Mark.... Much better than your review of the Mk1 version LOL

Great review. I'm gonna order one next week :)

Could be a replacement for my 500X same weight but a bit moor power, projector headlight they were fitted to cars about 20 years ago not the best.

Sometimes riding with the screen in it’s lower position is better than with it in the high, a lot less buffeting. Thanks BB

Great job Mark

Thanks Mark, great review. This will probably give Triumph another headache! Did you notice if both those lovely projector headlights come on? I hate those that only have one on, with everyone thinking you've lost a bulb? Cheers.

Great review sorry didn’t know you had reviewed this.

Great review.

I went with GIVI side and top cases.. think Shad might be nicer better brackets ..

Hi just got a new one had a mt07 for 3 years I can't wait to ride it

As usual a brilliant review Mark. After your Tracer 900Gt review I started saving for one of those, after watching this review, I'm now considering this instead. I do the weekend blast and sometimes a bit of UK touring etc for a long weekend. I sometimes take my 12 year old son on the back and currently ride a 99 VFR800FI. So which should I get.?? The 700 or 900 Tracer?? Cheers Steve

Good test, thanks. Anybody knows the top speeds at gears?

Hi Mark, very useful video. Thanks. I'll be in the market in the next few months and and comparing the Tenere 700 to the Tracer 700. How would you describe the comfort between the two models? Some UK roads are just awful as you know and soft suspension is appealing and a 21" wheel will roll over bumps better. MCN Compared them both along with the MT-07 and said the Tenere might just make the best of the 3. I can fit all 3 in terms of size. Thanks and stay safe!

Hi Mark, I can’t find a review on your channel for the 2023 Tracer 7 GT. Any chance you could grab one to check out. As I live on guernsey we are somewhat limited with dealers not having anything in to road test. Many thanks John Roberts.

I like this bike 👍🏻👍🏻

finally someone with the same height as me I can follow for accurate reviews :D

Nice review Mark. Could you perhaps do one on a GSX-S 750 too?

Did you also test the previous model mate ?? Crescent is one of my local ish dealers. I test rode the new one today and really enjoyed it but there are some cracking deals to be had on new old style ones

I have the MT-07 and am looking for a more touring oriented bike. But I think I'd rather move up to the Tracer 900, just because it's a bit bigger.

could you review honda 500f? looking for my 1st big bike and fancy honda...

Of you had to make a choice, which of the two bikes, since they both have the same engine, would be your pick: this or the Tenere?

Hi Mark, just watched again your review of the Tracer 700. Any chance you could ride and review the 2020 Vstrom 1050xt as I currently ride a 650xt cheers Mark and ride safe. Regards Gary.

You have driven all these byces like the Tracer 700, the Honda cb500x,the 650 Versys and 650 Vstrom...Which of them gets your preference,if you would choose it for your FIRST byke as a newbe?

Hello Paul been thinking about changing my 250 v strom for one of these or a guzzi v85tt traveller. ,cheers again

Literally the perfect bike for the class and my usage. Only problem: not available in the US. WTF!!!!!

It's a bike I wish was available in the states.

Hi Mark its between a Honda 500x or Tracer 700 for me, in your view which is best!..thanks

How does it feel compared to the F750GS? It is about 30 kgs lighter.

I'm torn between the Honda cb500x and the tracer. I'm 6' tall so both would suit. But lots of info here for me to ponder over! Great review!

I'm really interested in this bike. I'm waiting for Crescent to reopen to give it a go. This or a used 900gt that's the question...Probably this for the back roads perhaps. I had to laugh at your back brake comment - the one on my Ducati is nothing more than a very expensive brake light switch!!

I would have bought one if they sold them in the USA.. Instead I had to convert an FZ-07 into a sports toruting bike .. at 8,500 miles I am about to install my Michellen road Pilot IV on the rear.. A Company in Australia sells a swing arm extention too..

Nice review

Dang...not available in the U.S. Mark! I was ready to go out and get one.

Hi Enjoying your videos. Apart from price/value why would you go for the Versys over the Tracer

One year on mark when do you think this bike will be updated, considering this or the mt07, but I'd be gutted if I bought a brand new one then they remodelled it 6 months later, great review, if only today was as hot 😬 10 degrees... 👌

I test drove one of these today and i'm not sure if it was just that particular bike but the gearbox was notchy and the vibes around about 6k made my hands go numb.

Hey Mark.. Suzuki v strom 650 xt or yamaha tracer 700? Which one would you put your money on in real world..

Just wish it had USD forks; not for any handling reasons, just the more modern look.

I know you're a fan of the v strom 650, like me. How does this compare in your view Mark.

Hi Mark, I think your reviews are great, very analytical and also very real world. Now to put you on the spot. If you were setting off to do the Scottish NC500, would you take this Yammie, the Honda CB500X, the Benelli Trk 502 or the CFMoto 650mt?

Can a centre-stand be added to this bike, just like it's predecessor..?

I brought a new one a year ago and I can't find anything I don't like about it... I had a Mt 07 for 2 years... well done yamaha

Probaly the next bike I would buy but the price is pretty up there TBH not far off something like your zx636 different category but much more performance

Hi had a new one for 3 months love the thing had a xsr 7 for one year and a mt 7 for 3 years put tracer 7 is better all round.

Hi Mark, I have a 2018 Honda NC750X DCT which I think would be comparable to this if you like this style Love those roads I go along there for a nice bimble

Nice bike to me it looks to small for a 700 but nice bike I bet you had all your vents open 👍

Hi Mark. Why do you think bmw750gs is better than Tracer 700? Thanks

Hi Mark this bike or Kawasaki Ninja 1000sx for two tour’s a year and weekend rides

I think you liked this bike.

Come on Yamaha give us a new Tracer 1000 with that crossplane.

How would this compare to the Honda cb500x or the nc750x?

Which did you find better - this or bmw 750 gs?

Heard they are making a tracer 250

Hi fab review. This or the nc750x ? Please?

How are you recording your audio?

as for touring its an excellent bike. we've just come back from touring the Scottishlands over 1500 miles two up. no problem this the old model. not keen on the look of the new one.

Why don’t you make some videos about how to changing oil or how to lock the helmet also ?!!!

A deadcat dot is 20£ and removes wind noise. Mark, I think you have a spare 20£

Fantastic review! I was thinking of purchasing a tracer 700 but wasn't sure but now I'm definitely getting one thank you! Great review again

Would you choose this over a 2020 Versys 650 ?

a parte que ele fala chuaslchsmdsn aadmlmd kdsldmklmd kdkslk é bem interessante kkkkkk

I'll wait until they hit £5995 in the winter,and i'm having one...needs a £Grand+half chucking at it,pegs,bars sump guard...and 19/17" wire wheels(T7 hubs),Arrows downpipes,K+N,etc.

Update Mark - I came across one of these lowered and bought it, awaiting delivery 😅

This or Kawasaki Versys 650? :)

Mark. Good videos. Get yourself a better microphone

For a few quid more i'd go for the Tenere,

I really dislike the agressive/manga look of the Yamaha bikes nowadays. I owned a 2015 XJ6 Diversion S, such a simple design, loved it. Soon they'll look like the Kawasaki...

If its doing 60MPG with a 17 litre tank, I make that 224 miles on a tankful.

Just think it’s a little expensive. I know it’s an improvement on the previous model but that was around £6.5k

132 top speed

Ride the KTM Super Duke GT mate

'Cross Plane 2' ... so just a parallel twin then 🤔...CP2 🤣🤣🤣
