Here is a 1989 Yamaha TW200 project i've been picking away at for the past year. I ride an 01 in the summer, this one is for the wife. Pretty much everything was bent, rusted, and scratched, but the price was right. I replaced a bent frame tube and "shaved" the rear pegs off. I'm researching having the frame powercoated as i do not like the black paint i rattle canned on. Swingarm is stretched 8", need to add some plating to hide the splice. A pair of Dunlop street tires will replace the knobbies. Working on a graphics plan and sorting electronic knomes...

Looks like the hillclimbers I just watched on Speed Channel. You won't have to worry about her doing too many wheelies. It'll be fun.
