Fitment comes from each tire's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

What Yamaha Tracer 9 drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
My motorcycle is a Tracer 9. In the summer, after riding for at least 20-30 km, it warms up and has good grip on dry ground. In the winter, it slips until it warms up on dry ground (what I wrote so far is valid for aggressive use). If you don't ride it hard in the rain, it has good grip in both summer and winter. Overall, I'm satisfied. I can say that its rain performance is better than the Metzeller Road Tec 01. That's my opinion.
I've only use it in the summer (all dry and hot), rear tire only . Sub 4000km till it reach the twi on the side. 10/10 tire till it reach 80% wear, then the tire feel a bit indecisive, with decent lost of performance coming out of corners.
