hello just thought I say hello and I like to know what you think of the tw200 as a first bike. Mr. Green

I think TW's are very nice little bikes, love the styling on them and think they are pretty danm cool! If you are in the UK (I think they were only available as imports here) then they would make good commuters, although as a only first bike once youv'e past your test it may be a little on the slow side. If I had more money when I was looking for a 125 then I would have seriously considered the 125 version, and as for reliablilty they seem pretty good. The joys of TW200 ownership are featured in this webpage:

I think it would make a good first bike.

Cheers, Jonathan Thumbs Up

hehe, you little bastard! *waves fist in the air* I love my Tw125, but I've seen a couple of nice looking Tw200s. Do you know that the portuguese (spelling?) mountain police use them? Very funky first bike, especially if it looks anything like this:
