Left outdoors for years, can we fix it? Yamaha TW200

Hey guys, today we have 2002 Yamaha TW 200 Tdub dual sport project. I got this dual sport dirt bike that has been siting outside for years and does not run, myself and my son Timothy will go thru the bike and lets see if we can bring her back to life.

    What a great find. Great project bike for your son. What a lucky kid to have a father to teach him how to work on bikes and learn to build bikes . Great job mate.

    Rado - I did the same thing with my daughter with a Suzuki DS125. She was hooked for life!

    Been looking for TW200 here in Slovakia for quite some time now. They are not sold in Europe anymore, so the only way to get it is finding a used one. Obviously, there are not too many of them. The one you got looks in a really good shape, now that you brought it back to life, it doesn't even look like it's been left outside in the elements for such a long time. Good job!

    Parts are plentiful and cheap. This will be a great starter for your son to learn. Very easy to work on and Mod if you want. I have acquired a 1998 TW200 with only 261 miles on it, My friend purchased it new and never titled it just road it a little on his farm then parked it for 10 to 15 years. It was inside covered in mold and dust, just like yours it looked really good after pressure washing. the tank was fine but needed a battery and carburetor. It now runs like a champ.

    Just brought one home myself. Mine was in much worse shape and 5 years older. I'm about ready to take it for a ride today after the mail gets here with my final parts order.

    Damn, you're feeding your kids well 😁 I remember first watching Dirt & Iron videos when Timmy was hiding behind your legs, now he turning wrenches and reviving bikes on camera 👍

    You should probably coat the inside of the tank to prevent further and future rusting. Bill Hirsch company made an alcohol resistant coating that I used on many tanks over the years with great sucess. Their coating is thin and I would do two applications and dry it with a slow stream of air overnight. Very nice video-you should be proud of both you and your son! Best of luck riding and taking on future projects.

    Very cool. Father and sons make the best team. Would you think about doing a KDX build? Look into the history of them. Ride safe my 2 wheel friends.
