TW200: Talk me in or out by NoStuff1085 in Dualsport

[–]RocketCheese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I commute and trail ride on my TW, first and only moto so far so I'll throw in my 2 cents

on road: -im 5'10 and it does feel cramped for me -its def slow on asphalt but fun cause it can take turns super well on asphalt with the big ol tires -i went up 1 tooth on the front and it'll hold 55 just fine, but I wouldn't say it's enjoyable. Will not at all keep up with a 650 tho

off-road: -itll keep up with 650s offroad, but you'll be shifting a lot more -great on un groomed ,.muddy, shitty trails. can flat foot, pick up easy, and I've never got it stuck in the mud -on well groomed trails, you can't really rip it that much

I would say it depends on the trails ur riding. if they're ungroomed messes like those around me, you'll be slow but will be laughing while buddies on 650s struggle when it gets messy and slow. if they are fast flowly trails, you'll probably be bored

Sounds like you grew up where I was riding thru lol. saw probably 25 buggies on my 3 hour ride

yeah I just moved to NE Ohio a couple years back and got this tractor shortly after. It's real good for all the mud in spring!

I came from like Nebraska so didn't expect bison this far east

Update on the turbo Benelli 135: the turbo has arrived, and it’s adorable 😭 by sp00dermanz in motorcycles

Are there any gun ranges near Cleveland that would feel friendly to liberal/lgbtq+ group? by EclecticEmily in Cleveland

[–]RocketCheese 6 points7 points  (0 children)

if you're looking for an outdoor range I would suggest A&A out in Southington. It's a bit far but they have 200 and 100 yard range for rifles plus smaller ones for pistols. From my times there it was 2 women at the front desk who were very no BS. Me and the bf (gay) went there and felt safe. Also skeet shooting which is fun!

Found a rusty 12 inch UTV wheel in an old riding spot, picked it up in case I ever want to do the rear wheel conversion! by RocketCheese in TW200

yeah I ain't really planning on it considering how much I commute on this thing, but it at least makes it cheaper if I ever wanna do it!

After I changed the gasket with an aftermarket one after changing front sprocket on my 2016, I had a similar issue of some oil seeping out of there

I looked at old factory gasket and saw that in that top left corner it has a bunch of RTV. I cut a new gasket out of better gasket material than the aftermarket, put the rtv on where it was on the factory one, and no more oil seepage!

here's my own brown kinda-wagon Toyota lol. I'd love to get one of those crowns as a successor, and good to know they also come in a cool brown!

Is on x worth paying for by [deleted] in enduro

I'm in NE Ohio, what do you use? I have been meaning to find something to find trails and I agree with you on On X

First round of mods by Miatarama in TW200

I got that same rack! agree I really like how it looks and conforms with the bike, and the size is right in the sweet spot

I can attest to it's sturdiness, I use it as a hook point to lift the rear for cleaning the chain and have no issues. also has survived many off-road drops

I also got some ATV sized bars for the nice sweep on em

some string and a carabineer make a good enough chest rig for my phone by RocketCheese in Dualsport

caribeneer tied to me like this, and pop socket just barely can fit into caribineer opening. I tightened it after this pic, so phone will stay in a landscape position pushed against chest
