As Grant mentioned .. the run up to overtakes on A roads and never quite being confident about getting past and back in. Doing the IAM course where they encourage progress and overtakes made me feel even more this way. The Tracer is great for this.


A bit better corner handling? I'm already going around corners that I'm familiar with 10 to 20mph faster without really thinking about it on the Tracer, and the stock suspension isn't even that sharp for it.


More wind protection to make long journeys at decent speeds less tiring.. altough now realising maybe it's not what I wanted, or at least no working out how I expected with a bike that is meant to be for that purpose?
