Default New to the forum / TW200

Just wanted to say helloand that I have a 2008 TW. It had 650 miles on it when I bought a few weeks ago, it hasn't seen the dirt yet. Hoping to learn more about this bike but I'm thinking this might take a little time by the look of things.

Wow thats great! Welcome!

I just had to get rid of my 1994 T-Dub when I left Japan. I absolutely loved that bike. Some suggestions. If it does not have a fuel filter, get one. If it still has the stock chain, upgrade it! Check your idle screw!!! Two of the easiest things I did to get the bike running better was to rejet the carb and change up the sprockets. You will really enjoy riding it! I miss mine.

Take care

Nothing wrong with welcoming someone even if they have been a member for 6 months!

Not at all. Just like there's nothing wrong with welcoming a member that joined months BEFORE you did.
