I love that bike! At 79 years old it makes me want to ride again. I bet I could do it too.

"We Carry On" ....................................Words that Excite even the most Jaded!

I switched the rear sprocket to a 47 tooth. Three off the back is the same ratio as adding one to the front. The rear sprocket is an easy swap, no need to remove side of engine and no oil change. I get slightly less wear on the engine at highway speeds, less wear on me, and a little better fuel economy. You'll have to shift down on a few more hills. A Jimbo cafe shield is a must have addtion for long rides in my opinion. It keeps a few bugs off my chest and looks cool. 😅

I used to get range anxiety all the time. I now carry a one gallon fuel bladder on longer rides. Between the tank and the bladder I've never run out of fuel where I live. A bigger fuel tank would however be more convenient.

Love the dog and video. Cheers.

My best friend's Dad invented the outdoor movie speaker housing. He hold the Patent. The TW is a cool bike, a Bronson Bike, as it were.

Brenton, I have seen some of the people with E-bikes put on a front rack and they move the headlight under the rack. The Yamaha is amazingly quiet on the video .Nice bike.

You are living the life sir. I am really enjoying your channel.

Seat concept for the seat

Our drive in closed a year ago and man do I miss it. Brought back a lot of memories. Like the bike. Safe travels.

You can bungee your tool box beneath the front rack along with two inner tubes, tire spoons, tow strap, and a battery booster.  Don’t ask how I know you might need such things if you go on the TAT.

Fortnine does a great video on this bike if ya haven’t seen it already, I’d like to get one someday myself.

You have me thinking about adding a tooth to the front sprocket

Don’t be afraid to stand on your pegs to give the backside some relief. It makes a huge difference. When I roll through a small town, I stand on the pegs.

Amazing how many things you that you Youtube, that I have experienced.  I can remember that exact drive in speaker, in my case the early 1970s.  I also have a T- dub.  I only ride it off road, great bike.  I've said it before, but you are a modern day Jeremiah Johnson.  God bless you and Wavey.

Check out Bradley performance! Everything he does is great but the drop/back foot pegs make riding very comfortable

Was that first stop Inspiration Point near Arcadia? I love the TW 200. I have considered purchasing one for a few years now.

That is one sweet bike!

When I had my V Strom, the best seat improvement onba budget was a deer stand pad from walmart. It was about 1.5" thich and about 16"x16".  It kept me from spending money on a seat. They tend to be pricey.

I love it.

I may do a west coast run on my dr200 next summer

I talled to you in Moran (just N of the bridge) while you were getting gas. Looks like you had a good ride. The TW is definitely the swiss army knife of bikes and the perfect UP bike. Cant wait for the next video.
