Yamaha Big Wheel

If yamaha made a Big Wheel 450 or 700 and made them lean looking like the 200 it would be the ultimate dune machine.
what do you thing and how does one tell yamaha.

I had a BW200 when I was about 13 and put hundreds of miles on it. I loved that bike even though it weighed like a ton of bricks and had no nuts. its great mud in the mud also.
I would jump on a BW350 if I ever found one locally.

I rode the "Fat Cats" when I was up in AK a few years ago, they go over sand, rocks and almost anything. We tore up the beach for miles.

i have a 2 hundred and it will climb and runover things go through mud like no other
it does the dunes really well for an old 200 when i rode it at saint anthony everyone would stop atop dunes and point
but if they had modern 450's in there they would rip and a new chassis thats lighter it would be awesome!!!

We see these small bikes occasionally for sale locally. Never had much interest in them to look at the size.

You've piqued my interest.
 
Thats correct, my big wheel kit using the factory brake assembly, sprocket, disc, and chains but allows room for Rhino tires. 25H x 8w / rim 12 on front and 24H x 11w / 12rim on the rear. Any questions email usmcjordan@yahoo.com
