Here's my Yamaha 1987 TW200.
This bike hasn't touch pavement in more than 12 years - it lives at the bottom of the Barranca de Cobre in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico. She earned her name (La 25) from the fact that the previous owner took possesion in lieu of 25 kilos he was owed.
We cleaned the rat's nest out of the battery space. Then a can of barbeque grill paint supplied the appropriate color, with a duct tape seat cover.
A year later, ''she'' grew horns. Still running strong.
