2001 Yamaha TW200 Dual Sport reviews

I just bought this bike about 2 months ago and it has some road miles but its in better shape than most new bikes I see. It's in very mint condition. It's altogether a fun bike. You can walk it basically on crazy trails, and at the same time get on a road or highway with ease. I've heard its top speed is 60mph. that's bullcrap, I've had my 2001 at about 70-75 on roads. I usually ride on the trails around here at about 40-45.

I purchased this 2001 TW 200 with 1345mi several months ago, and find it to be most impressive. I am 6'0 and weigh 230 lbs. I can travel easily at 60 mph with lots to spare. The seat and suspension offer a comfortable ride both on and off road. At 264 lbs, the bike is pretty nimble on the trails. It takes turns and curves nicely, and because of it's oversized tires, you need not worry about bogging in soft sand.On the road however, it would be nice to have a sixth gear, as it appears to be geared a little low for freeway travel.Overall a great bike. Even for us big guys!

I'm 5' nothin and around 110lbs and it is a perfect fit, and will cruise comfortably @ over 70 mph. I love the electric start, as it has never failed me. The suspension, and brakes are also superb. Perfect bike for people that are small to average size. I love how I don't have to load it on a trailer to hit the trails as it's street legal.

All I can say is this is a wonderful bike very nice features for road use, could use a bit bigger engine.
