All good things must come to an end! Including my time with the Yamaha TW200…
I picked the motorcycle up from Rick on a Saturday and was able to get all of my filming done by that evening. I kept the motorcycle overnight and come the following day, I set out to return the motorcycle to Rick!
The ride from my place to Cogent Dynamics was to be about 30 minutes on some flowing back roads. The road weaved it’s way through farmland and forest and I was able to enjoy my last half hour on the bike in beautiful weather.
The big tires soaked up all of the bumps along the way and I never felt like they hindered the performance of the motorcycle. The motorcycle easily roared up to and past the speed limit when asked to.
Much like the CT125, this motorcycle draws attention when out and about. While putting gas in the day before I was questioned about the bike and was told it looked like one of the “little Coleman bikes.”
The TW is stylish, it’s powerful like a tractor, and best of all, it’s weird! It’s a strange bike, but it gets around great. It’s a reliable motorcycle that’s been available since the late 1980s. There’s so much aftermarket support for it too! I really enjoyed riding this bike. It fit the bill for me really nicely. I wouldn’t be too surprised if you saw me with one in the future.
Stay tuned for a TW200/CT125 video coming in the next few weeks!
