Anyone ever ridden one of these, not sure why but I think I like how it looks!

I had a ride on one of these in Singapore, they seem to be a very popular model in the far east, given the state of the roads, the large tyres allow riders to carry the wife, kids, a couple of goats and a load of chickens plus luggage in relative comfort, and at faster speed than carrying the same load on a honda c90

I never got the chance to try one off road, but it was fun on the road

They look like fun, one often parks up in Wonford, I'll keep an eye out and try and grab the owner.

Limited suss travel but 78mpg always a winner.

I've always liked the look of the TW's, although never had a go on one. Are the new one's going to be avaliable in this country?? As far as I can see the have only been avaliable abroad for the past few years.

I must say it does look like a pretty fun bike! Wouldnt mind one! They also made a yamaha BW200 with a rear wheel so wide the chain was off set with an extra sprocket and chain etc.

Hi there Mr Devon Dan, i've just picked up a 125 version of these to get me back on the lanes biggrin.   It rides like a bmx and parts are cheap! 

You are more than welcome to come over and have a poke/ride if you wish, im in Torquay.  It would also help me to have an expert ear/eye if you know what i mean. 

Phil.
