@@jbooh88 toss er down to 8psi don’t be afraid. Whenever you get a new tube put slime in it. The sealant. Might make a mess if you get a hole but minor ones will seal up to get you home. And if you carry a little manual or electric air pump along you can air back up for when you get back to pavement. You’ll benefit a ton in that with low pressure like that. Also if you didn’t know there are pressure gauges made specifically to give you an accurate low pressure reading between 0-15psi. That way you aren’t using a gauge that goes to 100psi trying to guess if you’re at 5 or 15 lol.
Much harder to stall. However, I wanted a really slow gear for the very technical climbs. Slow enough to use both legs on the ground without having to float the clutch.
Tusk d-flex pro handguards. They’re nice and economical. Did have to grind the handle bar clamps like mobstreet83 to make them fit the stock handlebars in the right place. Was worth the hassle for the quality and savings. We just put the tusk dflex MX guards on my buddies blue 2014 tdub. They do look sleeker than my my pro version.
You win. I may go a little lower when I need a new chain. It’s flat corn country in my immediate area. We have to go a ways for anything meaningful off road. No shortage of dirt and gravel roads in the middle of flat cornfields.
Don't see the reasoning with the 52 rear sprocket. Less than 4% change which adds less than 1/2 ft/lb of torque for the woods yet adds about 300 rpm on the street. Not enough gain in the woods for what you're giving up on the street. IMO
It’s not a huge difference. We’ve been running this gearing for a while. It is surprisingly noticeable, but we are still stalling when we are lugging around in first gear. I wouldn’t mind going lower, but I’m still able to cruise 55 if I need to and didn’t have to get a new chain yet. Going to milk out the stock chain first
The BW isn’t a thrilling racer. Nor do we have the skills to push them like the TW 200 Enduro video. That being said, I would stomp Dustin‘s ass in a race.
Why not both. We bought them to beat on. I’d get a honda Trail cub 125 if I were only cruising. don’t plan on ever selling my bike so I’m not worried about its value. Worth the same to me with dings and scratches. I maintain it well, but it’s no barn queen
Oh boy trail was tight..
Perfect TW trails!
Best farm bike in the world.
That looks kinda slippery good videos tho I think it made my mind up for what fun bike to get
Looks like a fun ride. Nothing quite like a good singletrack trail.
Awesome trail ! Looks fun
Was a blast. Had to groan because of the humidity that day.
Great job 👏
Great video! Looks like about 8 p.s.i. territory.
I’m too scared to go that low. I am open to trying the 12 to 15 range. Been going by the manuals 18f18r off-road pressure

If you want a real trail tractor, you have to be willing to give up the highway. I am using a 69t sprocket and absolutely love it!
Sounds like it’s impossible to stall. Probably climbing hills in 3rd

What's your top road speed with that larger sprocket?
@@jjacoby1010 maybe 45. I don't like to take it much over 40.
Great video and good trail. What handguards are you using? I need to get some for my new TW. Thanks.

@@jbooh88 Thanks for the info, appreciate it. I just picked up a TW200 and need to get some handguards on it. I'll check those out!
Looks like a mountain bike trail your not supposed to be on…I friggen love it!👍🏻
😂
Sounds like me. Could be having the time of my life, but still swearing and bitching hahaha.
13/62. I only use the bike for Elk hunting single-track in Utah at 8K+ Some other guys up hunting running 14/90 with ATV rear tires

2ED TIME WATCHING THIS VIDEO YOU GUYS TAKE A BEATING AND COME BACK FOR MORE 100% AWESOME
Noob trial by fire. Was a humid day with plenty of arm pump. Was slow and tense on that trail. Camera didn’t do the ruts justice
pretty exhausting ride. Hard to enjoy the vista around you because of the bad shape of the trail.
Muggy day got to us. Trail was pretty rough. The most arm pump for the least speed.
We'll never know how'd it go lol
Lol Like Gump asking Bubba “why’d this happen?”

yall should race

not me, beating the H out of my equipment for what? country gravel road, steady pace i'm in.

DAMN YOUR GETTING A WORKOUT
Had some arm pump going. Was a humid day.
