Hi all,
Looking for some advice on buying a tw200. First I will say I have not ridden a bike in years, so currently my experience level is low.
I'm an avid outdoorsman and also spend a lot of time traveling in a 31' motorhome. I was lead to the tw200 by some other RVers that I ran into on some of my travels. I was considering an ATV but do not like the fact that they are not street legal.
So, looking for some advice here. This bike will be used 99% of the time on forest service roads to get to walk in trail head areas. I would on occasion need to be able to haul some stuff on my back or on a rack and possibly on occasion need to head into town to pick up some supplies (milk, eggs, etc) I spent two weeks in Colorado this year and the roads were brutal on the small SUV I used to get around (I pull it behind the RV). I would use the bike as a replacement for the small SUV.
I found a local guy selling a 08 with 500 miles on it for a good price. Is this the right bike for me? What do I need to know? Am I way off base here thinking this will be a good complement to my RVing and Outdoor excursions?
