I think I would like a Tracer 9 GT.
The 2021 is 40 pounds less than the RS and at 117 HP the rear wheel HP is probably more than the RS.
I like the look but it would be better if they painted the nose fairing.
Windshield looks taller than I would like.
As for gravel roads I don't see how the Tracer would be any better than the S1000R.
Looking at the Yamaha site a new 2020 Tracer is $12,000 after rebate.
The updated 2021 must not be available in the US, it doesn't show on the Yamaha website.
