hi everyone just after a bit of info , just seen a honda tlr 200 reflex on evilbay for sale looks to be in excellent condition .are these bikes any good and are parts easily availible.cheers

Stock it's heavy with a gutless engine. Kind of inbetween an dual sport and a real trials bike. It was popular for the retired motorhome people who would strap in on the back and use it for short rides. Like a Honda XL 175 it will run forever with little maintenance and you probably can still get parts from your Honda dealer.

If you want it for trials riding it can be converted to the same machine as the tlr200 trials bike simply by stripping it of all the electrical lighting parts, and a few modifications. I did this by removing and selling all the unneccesary parts, put a smaller sprocket on the front, put a lightweight fiberglass tank/seat unit and a few other small mods and ended up with an awesome trials machine.

It is heavy compared to a modern bike, but it is one off the best twinshock bikes for competing in its class.

I recommend getting it, like most tlr owners you will love this bike.

The best place for parts is on Ebay ,as Honda factory parts can be expensive. There are also performance aftermarket parts such as the tanks, exhaust systems ,etc.
