[@OldScratch81]

My first bike was a 200cc 86 honda fatcat back in 95 , smiling from ear to ear every time I got on it , that little bike was a head turner and i loved it 🥰

@TiddyHeart Sweet👍👍

[@TexasPatriotOffRoadAndOutdoors]

My 2024 TW200 was my first street legal bike. I’ve had it about two weeks and am very happy with it so far!

[@notagain8661]

Have fun, don't forget to take the choke off once it warms up! 👍

[@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn]

@notagain8661 Thanks!! I didn't forget.. I didn't know🤣🤣

[@Elohim100]

TW was my first bike as well. You will love it.

[@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn]

@Snap-Dragon Yeah, I do😀

[@douggoble9695]

[@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn]

Great first choice, great last choice as well, straight to pinnacle... _

[@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn]

@MuktiLuv You got that right. Such a rad bike!

[@MuktiLuv]

@@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn sure, just saw the BW350 yesterday, super rad too, didnt knew this existed, big wheels had always been a 3 wheels thing in my mind, gonna get one for sure... just gonna have to find a way to import it here, and a loop hole to have it street legal, theres none in Thailand, nobody EVER saw one... lol... even the Tdub turns head a lot, its mostly 110-125cc here, honda wave's and click's etc... _

my 3rd bike of life is a 81 Xt250. and i got a klx 140L aswell.

[@bondjames652]

I have a 2019. Talk to a motorcycle mechanic about a jet kit and muffler.. Makes a huge difference. Huge.

They come way too lean, makes it hard to start

[@ronaldembree3932]

Enjoy your new bike, ride to your ability and not someone else s, stay safe. tip, before starting a cold bike, sit on bike, pull clutch, put bike in 2nd and still pulling clutch rock forward/back, you should feel the clutch let go. This will stop the bike jumping forward when you first start and just put in gear.

[@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn]

@ronaldembree3932 Thanks, I was wondering why it was jumping like that. I already have 2500 kilometers on the clock. Not to say that's a lot, but I'm feeling pretty comfortable on it now. I've even taken it on a sketchy single track.😃

[@Nonplused]

My wife really likes her TW. I tried her on a KLX250, but she prefers the TW.

[@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn]

@Nonplused It's such an easy bike to ride and a whole lot of fun👍👍

[@kevinswanson3910]

Good trail bike

[@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn]

@kevinswanson3910 So far it's a good everything bike. Just passed my mst so I can finally take it on some sweet adventures

[@bennickerson9581]

best first bike. They are sweet

[@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn]

@bennickerson9581 So far it's been so much fun 👍👍

[@robinbrowne5419]

An fun and informative video. Thank you. The TW looks like an awesome bike for trail riding, and handy around town too. I used to have a red Yamaha Trailmaster 100 which is likely the precursor to the TW. (Look it up on google.) It was a really fun little bike. But I don't think I would want a 2-stroke these days. A 4-stroke sounds a whole lot more civilized :-)

[@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn]

@robinbrowne5419 Thanks for watching.. It's a great bike. It'll do 90kph all day👍👍

[@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn]

Trail masters look sweet!!

[@robinbrowne5419]

@@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn You say 90kph. Does that mean you are Canadian? If so, then cheers from Ottawa. And cheers anyway, even if you are not Canadian :-)

[@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn]

@@robinbrowne5419 You betcha!! Comox, BC👍👍

[@robinbrowne5419]

@@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn Yes. The Trailmaster was a sweet bike. I had a rebuilt one for about 5 years in the early 80's. I rode it all year round, even in the winter. But it had a noisy 2-stroke. I realize that now, but I didn't then :-) Also it had a dual range transmission with high and low range. Similar to the Honda CT-90. But I think it was Honda who eventually said: Who needs a dual range gearbox. Just add an extra low 1st gear. The Trailmaster had electric start, which was awesome. I was sad to get rid of it. But I think I would take a TW200 instead. But that's progress :-)

[@charlesgeorge3215]

You left the chock on, I've done it before.

[@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn]

@charlesgeorge3215 Yeah i did😅

[@OGkush69x]

How tall are you ?

[@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn]

@OGkush69 I'm not exactly sure.. Lol.. I think 5"10 or 5"11.. Around there anyways🤣

[@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn]

@OGkush69 The bike doesn't feel small if that's what you want to know.. Feels great👍👍

[@OGkush69x]

@@westcoastdualsportadvent-cj5qn Yes im 5”9-5”10. Seems like it shouldn’t be too small for me then:) it seems just the perfect size for you, like it doesnt look like you dwarf it.

You look like you don’t even know how to ride a bike becareful on it don’t hurt yourself

@Ethan Santos You are correct.. This is my second time on a bike. I'm getting the hang of it pretty quickly though👍
