I go out with a bang before I move and I do the longest trip I have ever done on my TW200 . I start at my place in Ridgecrest California then ride all the way to Mt. Patterson on the Nevada/California Border .

Have watched many of your videos! Picked up a used TW at the start of summer, have spent the hot months going over it & doing some upgrades. I was a bit worried with it having almost 10K but after watching you put over 20K its eased my mind. Im 50 now & haven't been on bikes since my 20s the 200mi I've put on it so far has been a blast. You've been a great encouragement to plan some longer trips, I look forward to some good times. Well, good luck on your new venture! Its hard to leave the desert, im near Joshua Tree but Ca. has me at my wit's end! Mabe someday.

i did a couple sections of wyoming BDR on my TW and i was ridiculously overloaded. 2.5 gallons of gas(which i needed), a 20lb (when empty) ammo can full of gear and tools, gallon of water, a top box full of gear and food, and a blown rear shock. I didn't notice my shock was blown when i did a test ride around the driveway. handled almost uncontrollably in the rough trails. At least i could camp out for a few days if i needed to. Lessons were learnt

You have a clear bias towards the tw. Not trying to start anything but the klx is a superior bike in everyway. I would blow past you in all that terrain on my klx300. It's fine to love the tdub but pretending that it can outcompete the klx is just misinformation. Tdub is great for what it is, but it's winning head to head again most of not all full size dual sports in 300cc range.
@dualdorks Жыл бұрын
KLX is a all around better bike but that ride I believe I would have had a harder time on the KLX because of the sprocket combo I'm running now . First gear is very tall now . If I had the sprocket setup from before , (13/42) I could have easily made it up . With that setup though it was rough on the highway. It would barely do 60 .
@philipraposo8324 Жыл бұрын
@@dualdorks not everyone will know why your saying that though so it would be fair to be specific when comparing the 2 bikes. Stock form both bikes is how things are best compared. The klx can handle all that terrain and more stock just fine. Look at my videos and see what I do on mine. I only adjusted the suspension to be stiffer but it's all stock.

I have a wr250r with a big bore kit and low gearing and there is certain terrain I feel better taking the tdub on. Both bikes have their place, and your comment comes off as douchey and elitist
