In 2010, the Japanese motorcycle maker released the Yamaha TW200, a dual-sports motorcycle with a small displacement engine that remained almost unchanged over its long production time.
The 2010 TW200 packed the same technical, visual, and performance specifications as previous models without any significant modifications whatsoever, except for color alterations. The 2010 mode was for sale with an MSRP of $4,200 in a white or red color scheme.
It also packed the same standard features as all previous models, including a small rectangular headlight up front with a small wind deflector, a one-piece dual seat, a high-mounted single exhaust system, and wire-spoke wheels with fat off-road tires.
The bike packed a crisp engine with ample torque and power for various conditions. It offered a low seat height, electric starter, and automatic chain tensioner, which made it a desirable machine, complemented by fat tires with great contact with the ground.
For suspension, the 2010 motorcycle packed the same system as other earlier models, including a 33 mm telescopic fork on the front, offering 160 mm wheel travel and a single shock absorber on the rear with 150 mm wheel travel.
Underneath its fuel tank, the 2010 Yamaha TW200 had installed a 196cc four-stroke single-cylinder air-cooled engine with a Mikuni carburetor in charge, delivering 16 hp with a peak force at 8,000 rpm and 15 Nm (11 lb-ft) torque at 7,000 rpm.
