Fazer 8 2010 vs Tracer 9 2025

If straight-line speed is your priority, the Tracer 9 takes the lead. With 11 HP more than the Fazer 8, it offers a more spirited ride that will be noticeable on highway overtakes or track days. Both bikes share a similar footprint on the scale, with only a negligible 3kg difference between them, so handling characteristics will depend more on center-of-gravity than raw weight. Riders with a shorter inseam should lean towards the Fazer 8. Its seat height is 30mm lower than the Tracer 9, making it much easier to flat-foot at stoplights and increasing confidence during stops. Bottom Line: It's a close call. Choose the fazer-800 if you prefer its specific styling and ergonomics, or the tracer9 if you want the alternative brand character.
