Yamaha TW 200 vs. Grom

Get the tw, then he can put drunk wimmens on the back and take them to his place for shelter.

It's for safety.

Also, do not skimp on insurance

 

Aren't the TW's (like Suzuki's unlamented RV 90/125) made basically for sand? Friend's gf had one and I recall he said it's handling on pavement was....interesting.

 

What about a Suzuki TU250?

 

The TW has available racks, OEM and/or aftermarket.

 

Nobody riding the tu250 is gonna get laid lol

 

^^^ Probably wouldn't get stolen either

 

How about a Yamaha SR500? He can cut his Leg Days in half.

 

I have one. I understand

 

They do fairly well in the sand, but they weren't designed for sand. Technically, they're considered a "farm bike". Handles perfectly fine on the pavement.

 

This pretty much sums it up...
Looks fun, in an utilitarian way. I'd buy one. I'd not be doing much street riding with it, but camping, hunting, exploring...sure, why not?

 

Cr500. Preferably ported and piped so it comes on like a bus full of hookers at a billionaire convention and enough compression to snap Bo Jackson’s legs.

 

This friggen video put a TW200 into my garage one week after I watched it.

 

Grom.....more civilized in the city.

 

the solution... a modern vespa & a beret... meep meep

 

How is this even a discussion?

No matter what the question is, Grom is always the answer.

 

"What do all these buttons on my console do?"

Grom.

 

The Fort Nine guy makes some pretty nice videos. Thanks for posting that !

 

When I taught the MSF course, we used them and they sure could take a beating and still function well.

 

Grom or tw?

 

It's hard to overemphasize how tiny the Grom is. I can't imagine a 6'5" guy riding one. The TW is a much better fit. That being said, a scooter would be even better.

Ignore the haters @rd400racer. That TU is a great little bike.
