A few weeks ago I took my 2002 TW on a ride through the Ouachita National Forrest. My friend Juan and I drove out from Round Rock, TX for a 4 day weekend and had a blast!!
The roads were all very well maintained... a little too well for our taste but the scenery was great and we found enough...
I took my TW200 in for servicing, and afterwards it wouldn't roll in neutral very well. It rolled much better before. I'm assuming they did something with the chain and tightened things so that the sprockets weren't aligned. I greased up the chain pretty good but that didn't seem to help...

Anything tricky or does anyone want to toss some tips out to me?
Thanks

Yesterday I installed a DID O-ring chain on my TW200. (I used the method described in another post where you use a threaded nut and c-clamp to press the master link together). I need to take the chain off again but now I am having trouble removing the master link. I removed the clip and then...
