Yamaha TW200 Dual Sport reviews

Great bike. Bought to put on the RV and wife don’t like riding on it. Put about 500 miles on it. No issues. Trying to use up the 200 characters. Bike runs nice, tires and plastics in good shape. I have a tow hitch carrier I’ll throw in the deal if you need one. Blue old school plastics in good shape. 1450 Ish miles. Show less

This thing is the G.O.A.T., it is a goat too. It is a great starter bike and a great relaxing trail bike. I love commuting on this bike. It's not really fast, but it is really fun. This bike will climb the trails with ease. It has excellent upgrades and after-market support. if you are looking for a hobby bike with a cult following this is your bike. Show less

I love this as a beginner bike. It is so fun to ride because you are always changing gears. It is great on and off road. Very reliable and simple machine. The bike is very light and easy to control. I love the tw200 community. You can have any questions answered on their forums. Cons- I wish it had a slightly higher top cruising speed. I wish it was a taller seat because I’m 6’2” with long legs.

This is a very good all-around bike for anyone. I want to get a 450 engine put into it for a little more zip on the highway. Show less

The bike is geared too low so I changed the rear sprocket. This bike is not for adults. It's just too slow on the road. I put a Maxxis ATV tire on the rear and a Dunlop 606 tire on the front. It now goes great through sand and snow. Get the DRZ400SM or the DRZ 400S! I've also had the DR650 and the KLR650 but they're both too heavy for going off road. The DRZ400 is perfectly balanced for on and off road with the right amount of power. don't buy the TW200. Show less

This is my second TW 200. I have owned many motorcycles over the years, but none as enjoyable or versatile as this one. One of the most comfortable seats and riding positions I've ever enjoyed. You can ride at 60 mph for hours at a time in relative comfort. It cannot be stopped when going off-road either. It will climb straight up the side of almost any hill and it is almost impossible to get stuck in the mud (but if you do it is easy to pull out because of the low seat height and light weight). This is a great bike for a beginner and capable enough for the experienced rider. Show less

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. Show less

Wanted one for years. Finally broke down and got one and there's nothing about it I don't like. A good Yamaha dealer will stand behind their product, I know because I work at one. And, in this neck of the woods, you have to be good to your customers or you will go out of business. Show less

Got this bike basically to play with it. It's street legal and a great trail bike. It also turns heads because it's different. Big tires makes it handle great off-road and equally great on the street. The bike comes with a stock 50 tooth sprocket in the rear which makes it rev high at 55mph. I changed mine to a 45 tooth sprocket and it's a lot better. I have been to the freeway with it for short runs (10 miles or less). With the 45 tooth, it tops out at 70mph. I will recommend this bike to everybody especially shorter riders for it sits low to the ground and center of gravity is low. There is a tw forum (yamaha tw200 forum) that has endless info on this bike.... I hope this review helps. Show less

This is my first road bike after several dirt bikes. This little boy is fun. It pulls my fat butt around w/o problems. I love that I can just turn off the road and follow a trail or railroad tracks ... great for short runs around town ... but not a bike for highway driving ... Show less
