Exhausts Yamaha MT-09 Tracer 2015-2016

The Yamaha MT-09 Tracer is the name this motorcycle was born with: presented at EICMA 2014 under this designation, it arrived at European dealerships in spring 2015 and redefined the concept of compact sport tourer. The name reflected its origins - the MT-09 platform, the CP3 847cc inline three-cylinder with 115 HP, its linear power delivery and unmistakable sound, transplanted into a travel-oriented chassis with half fairing, adjustable screen, 18-litre tank and centre stand as standard. The MT-09 Tracer 2015-2016 is the version with the original short 532mm swingarm and 1,440mm wheelbase: a geometry that makes it more nervous and direct than subsequent generations, with a character that never hid its naked roots. Those who know it well know that this first version has something special - a reactivity and immediacy that later generations partially smoothed over in favour of greater stability.

What we offer for the MT-09 Tracer 2015-2016 is a full exhaust system, not a simple replacement silencer. The original exhaust is designed as a single unit - headers, mid-pipe and silencer form an inseparable assembly that does not allow the replacement of the end can alone. Our system replaces the entire exhaust path, from the engine outlet to the terminal, maintaining compatibility with the original mounting points without requiring structural modifications. In the standard configuration the silencer replicates the position of the original: underbelly routing with low exit near the swingarm, a solution that keeps the centre of gravity low and the masses centralised. For those who prefer a high lateral position that is more visible aesthetically, the Lateral Exhaust Kit is available separately, bringing the silencer to the side of the motorcycle and including all components needed for installation without modifications. The mounting kit is included in the supply. We recommend installation by a qualified mechanic to ensure correct and lasting fitment.

All models in this category are approved for use on public roads throughout Europe and Switzerland with Euro 3 certification: the homologation certificate is included in the supply. The original exhaust of the MT-09 Tracer 2015-2016 is fitted with a catalytic converter: the new exhaust must be purchased in the catalysed version to maintain full road compliance.

On the CP3 847cc of the MT-09 Tracer, the benefits of a full exhaust system enhance an engine that needs no introduction. The Yamaha three-cylinder already has an unmistakable voice as standard - that distinctive mid-high pitch with its irregular firing sequence that has captivated generations of riders - but a sports exhaust makes it fuller and more defined in the mid-range, where the CP3 concentrates the best of its delivery. On a motorcycle with the short and direct geometry of the first-series MT-09 Tracer, reducing weight near the swingarm means removing unsprung mass: the rear end becomes more precise, the response to road imperfections cleaner, and that reactivity in direction changes that distinguishes this version from its successors is further accentuated.

Each system is handcrafted in Lombardy, in the province of Bergamo, to order. This is not mass production: every part is machined and assembled by hand, with careful quality control at every stage. Each system is sold directly, with no intermediaries, which means a more transparent relationship both on the product and on after-sales support: whoever answers you knows these exhausts inside out.

As this is a complete exhaust system on a motorcycle with a catalysed original exhaust, the original catalytic section is also replaced. The catalytic converter is available as an option in the product page drop-down menu. Choosing the catalysed version results in no fuelling issues or warning light activation, though a short adaptation period for the ECU to the new system is normal: during the first rides, minor variations in power delivery may appear, which will resolve themselves automatically. Those who opt for the non-catalysed version should consider that fuelling may not be optimal and that an ECU remap will likely be necessary to get the best out of the exhaust system. The non-catalysed version is reserved for track use or contexts where road compliance is not required, within the limits permitted by local regulations.

The dB killer is included as standard. It is not officially removable: its removal invalidates the homologation. For those who want further noise reduction, the No-Noise dB killer is available, featuring a welded internal filter that further reduces decibels without significantly affecting performance. This option is also selectable in the product page drop-down menu.

Production times vary depending on the period and workload. Updated times are always shown at checkout, before order confirmation. Shipping tracking is sent automatically as soon as the parcel is handed over to the courier.

For any technical queries or information requests, please consult the FAQ section of the website or contact us via the Contacts page or chat. We respond directly.

To optimise the ECU as well, our Alientech Powergate 4 remapping kit for Yamaha Tracer 900 (2015-2020) is available, with up to 4 maps included, calibrated on the bike configuration. The map also removes the MIL warning light, which can come on with the non-catalysed version.

In the product list below you will find all available models for the MT-09 Tracer 2015-2016. The differences between variants are mainly aesthetic: silencer shape, material and finish. The catalytic converter and No-Noise dB killer, where available, are selected in the product page drop-down menu.
