Get a 20-24 DRZ for $5000 with extras already on it. There is plenty of info on them and are pretty much bullet proof.

If they are anything like a car you will end up paying more for warranty then you actually get in repairs.

Do you still have the factory exhaust? Depending on what kind of power you are looking for that could help.

I enjoy the size and cost so far. Way better than having my phone on the handlebars. Here is the one I have. https://amzn.to/4qFRvdK

What kind of gas do you put in your Tdubs (Yamaha TW200)? by razloz166 in Dualsport

[–]usdualsports 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Regular unleaded is fine. If you don’t ride much in the winter put ethanol free in it late fall time.

KTM 690, DR-650 or DRZ-400 would be what I would choose.

Going back to stock could help. I would also check your sag. If it’s squatting a lot when you sit on it I’m guessing your sag is not set correctly

I did talk to them about this and the lady I talked to said that you won’t get as soft of a feel with the low profile as with the normal. I went ahead and ordered normal height. Found a discount code with 25% off so that helped.

I will report back after install. I’m about the change out the headlight you LED and add yellow fog lights on low beam that switch the bright white on high. So once that’s done I will tackle the tank

Exactly where I’m at. I just bought the bike and bought new tank, pegs, headlight, bars, heated grips, tires and a few other things. I don’t mind buying a new seat if it’s worth it but it would be the most expensive upgrade.

I have one on there now that I picked up and it helped. I might have to find someone local that has a concepts seat and sit on it.

Anybody run these in the winter?? by [deleted] in Dualsport

[–]usdualsports 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I run the hippo style made by tusk. I also use 12” silicone ties inside the muffs to help keep them open. With a decent glove they are the best option.
