Just picked up a pretty well used 99 TW-200, but it is a fun change from my 160+HP streetbikes. Needed a partner for my CT-110 anyway so the wife and I or the older grandkids can putt putt the trails when camping. I plan a full teardown and go over this next winter and will make it a theme bike, I have already picked the name, "Zombie Stomper" and am working on mounts for my AR-15 and Machete. I know I will get some great ideas from this group! http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b26/ZXtasy/CIMG0990.jpg Our Stable 1983 Honda CT-110 1999 Yamaha TW-200 2006 Kawasaki EX-650R 2005 Kawasaki ZX-10R Streetfighter 2008 Suzuki GSX-R-1000 Streetfighter (For Sale)    Report

Why did you decide to make them this way? I sort of like the look...kind of guzzi-ish -Adam thrashin' and crashin' w/ TW, always with a smile :) 06' TW 05' R6 "Freedom is Irrelevant, when Sovereignty is Absent" -Me.    Report

I put 20K miles on my stock ZX-9 and could do 500 mile days back to back, but my neck and shoulders would complain. After I made a 3 piece collarbone in a tip over I could hardly stand it, so the 9 went fighter for 2 years and I could ride 1500 miles in 3 days with no excessive discomfort. When I went to the 05 ZX-10, I loved the stock sharpness and edge, but after one season my age and bones cried out for more uprightness. Even with the 'seeming' lack of wind protection, it is less straining on my body than hunched so far forward. The bike with dirty/drag bars is actually quite flickable, and I routinely do track days and drag knees. It is a bit of a chore to hang on for extended blasts at 150-170, but that is very short lived on most straights and I save on an upper body workout at the gym. 1983 Honda CT-110 1999 Yamaha TW-200 2006 Kawasaki EX-650R 2005 Kawasaki ZX-10R Streetfighter 2008 Suzuki GSX-R-1000 Streetfighter (For Sale)    Report
