YAMAHATW200 2002 - 2003

　　The 2002 Yamaha TW200 was a dual-sports motorcycle that debuted in 1987. The bike was powered by a 196cc single-cylinder engine and packed the exact visual, technical, and performance specifications as previous models without any significant modifications.

　　Like the two-wheel-drive Rokon, the Yamaha TW200 was fitted with large, fat tires and was referred to as a two-wheeled quad. The TW200 motorcycle was ridden to the North Pole by Shinji Kazama.

　　The bike had standard features, such as a single headlight unit up front, a one-piece dual seat, a high-mounted single exhaust system, a dual-sided swingarm, and lightweight wire-spoke wheels shod with fat off-road tires.

　　In the suspension department, the motorcycle packed a 33 mm telescopic fork with 160 mm wheel travel on the front and a single shock absorber on the rear with 150 mm wheel travel, delivering excellent suspension performance and handling.

　　As for the braking power, the bike's wheels were fitted with a single 200 mm disc coupled to a hydraulic caliper and a drum braking unit on the rear, offering optimum stopping power.

　　In the performance department, the 2002 Yamaha TW200 had its soul brought to life by a 196cc four-stroke single-cylinder air-cooled engine fed by a Mikuni carburetor, delivering an output power of 16 hp at 8,000 rpm and 15 Nm (11 lb-ft) torque at 7,000 rpm.

　　The engine was coupled to a five-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-plate clutch, sending the power to the rear wheel through a final chain drive.
