2019 Yamaha TW200
Summary:
Ideal for trails. Fun for backroads. Fine for the city. Too slow for the freeway
Faults:
Nothing. Rode it about 6450 KM in about 22 months.
Oil and filters, valve adjust once, chain adjust.
No issues of any kind.
General Comments:
I rode this bike for just shy of two years; mostly just local country roads on the weekend. I think if you stay off the freeway/interstates, it is OK up to about 55 mph.
At that point it runs out of steam. People will mess with the gearing, etc. and try to make the TW more than it is; but at heart it's just a fun light bike for roaming around on trails and quiet country roads. I think it also makes a decent commuter bike for the city as long as there are no highways involved.
After two years I felt like I needed something just a little more powerful, heavier, and more capable of highway travel.
Would you buy another motorcycle from this manufacturer? Yes
