Hehehe...sure or not 1.73 not tall enough.I've seen more shorter people riding scramblers on the road.When it comes to traffic stop,they will start looking for kerbs to put down their legs...Its not abt height but how confident are u to handle a bike..By the way,TW200 is a nice bike.I think there's a thread somewhere in the forum where all the TW200 riders gather.

Hey guys, new bee here, I got a crash on TW200 but I wonder if my height (185cm) suitable for it? Is there any other under 200cc scrambler that's high enough or it is just not a problem at all? cheers!

Anyone care to share how is the handling of this bike? Any prob with the stock tyres?

Also, is the powerful good enough to get you out of sticky situation or overtake other vehicles?

What is a comfortable speed for this bike?

Thanx alot! :thumb:

The handling is quite good. Its quite a light bike and able to squeeze between cars easily.

I changed my stock to semi road tyres as i personnaly feel the vibrations from the nobbly stock tyres too much for me to handle...

Its able to overtake but for my bike, 80~90 is the comfortable speed. aft tat it tends to vibrate. Some TWs able to ride easily on most right lane, as for mine its max the the 2nd lane from right.

So it really depends on the engine condition..

Just my views...

It doesn't matter what you ride. What matter most is that you RIDE!!

 

Jalan slow takpe, tapi "style" MESTI mau ada!!

Thanx alot for the info bro! Will be getting a TW200 soon as a project bike. Saw the way those japs modify their TW200... I think it will be fuN! :thumb:

Are those semi road tyres expensive? I most probably will change it out before I even roll out the bike... :)

Bridgestone tires cost on ave 240 plus installation

shinko tires cost abt less than 200. Both are quite good.. Currently using shinko and it lasted me abt 2 years so far.. Quite durable.

Sounds pretty reasonable. Can't wait to get my hands on it! Just checked out Asphoon, selling 8100 without insurance. Will look around to see if got better deals or not.

For info, in case any other bros out there also looking at TW. :thumb:
