Letting go of my TW200

[Hisoka]

This might be the time to let go of my '22 TW200. I think it's not too good for riding with a passenger to be honest it's more of a 1-up type. It's been 3 years since I got it and my wife has been complaining for that long, too. I've tried everything. Fixed seats. Added in a top box, but really, it isn't working. So now I'm off to my last resort... What's a good bike where my wife will be the happiest with me? Thanks in advance. Appreciate any reply.

Happy wife, happy life. That's what they say man, that's beyond me. You can try Yamaha Aerox for that one, though it's just 155cc. or better yet get her her own scooter, maybe a Vespa.

The TW200 is a ton of fun on its own, but it's not really designed for two people. You might want to check out options like the Suzuki V-Strom 650, Yamaha Tenere 700, or even the Royal Enfield Himalayan. They come with comfortable setups for passengers, have plenty of power, and are still great for adventure. Trust me, both your marriage and your back will appreciate it.

For sure, the TW200 is a blast to ride solo, but definitely not the best choice for two. Honestly, those other bikes you mentioned are fantastic options, way more comfy and powerful. They'll make both you and your passenger really enjoy the ride
