是什么让摩托车伟大?

有时,这是原始速度。其他时候,这是良好的处理。或者,它可能是良好的定价。一个真正出色的摩托车将结合所有三个因素,并作为历史经典之一。

然后,有Yamaha BW350。It wasn’t fast, it didn’t have razor-sharp handling, and you could certainly find dirt bikes for a lot less money. But if you wanted a big wheel dirt bike (areal大轮污垢自行车,而不是今天通过一个大轮的弱酱),然后BW350是他们最大的。

现在,这是一个适当的大轮自行车,而不是那些今天担任这个名字的懦弱的孩子大小的污垢自行车。照片:周期交易者

Today, when you hear about big wheel dirt bikes, manufacturers are just talking about smallish offroad machines with full-sized wheels, as opposed to smaller wheels intended for youth bikes (those kids have shorter legs, doncha know, so they need smaller wheels). But in the 1980s, a big wheel bike meant the manufacturer had designed the machine with massively wide rims that could mount ATV-sized tires. There were a few well-known offroad-only models along these lines, including three from Yamaha and one from Honda.

本田的TR200,又名胖猫,基本上是一个三轮车,其中一个车轮被移除,仅在1986-1987的生产中。他们很难找到,许多人都被认为是非常可取的,即使他们没有雅马哈的寿命,也是在他们发布怪异的埃尔戈斯和一般初级友好设计时被淘汰。

Yamaha的BW200在1985年开始举行一年,并于1989年出售。它由Wimpy 196 CC四冲程引擎提供动力。它肯定激发了两年后进入市场的TW200,但你永远不会将其中两人误认为并排;与T-DUB相比,BW具有巨大的轮子,并且底盘和车身也不同。然后,有BW80,这是一个相同模式的迷你版本。

根据车身的说法,这款BW350有电动启动,但这里也有一只踢。照片:周期交易者

And then, there was the BW350.

BW350使用了一个空气冷却的四冲程单缸350发动机,与Warrior ATV中使用的发动机相似(在那些日子里,有很多零件工程与Yamaha的较小位移摩托车一起使用)。它没有做出大量的力量,但它肯定比其他大轮自行车更多。

就像其他人一样,它在铸造轮辋上滚动,它花了绝对巨大的轮胎。前轮胎尺寸为25x8x12,后轮胎尺寸为23x11x9。而且像其他大轮自行车一样,BW350并没有真正建造速度。

BW上的前轮不利于积极的转弯,因为它不会像薄薄的轮胎一样咬住(一个甚至在小于TW200上出现的问题)。而且,暂停不是用于MX式跳跃,虽然您当然可以跳BW350。

A very odd-looking bike, for sure, even without the fat tires. And check out that jackshaft arrangement on the swingarm. The BW350 required a dual-chain rear drive to transfer power around that massive rear wheel.

相反,自行车在有很多松散地形的环境中真的很好地工作,特别是沙子。大量后轮胎允许大量抓地回来,只要你有侵略性的踏板,如果你想撕掉一个沙丘,BW350是一种有趣的方式。而且地形越不可能,BW处理它越好。将迅速埋葬常规污垢自行车到轴的邋bogs,是一个与bw的全新游戏。

But just as the oversized front wheel could make cornering wonky, the rear wheel had its own capricious habits as well, as slick mud could leave the BW’s tail end wandering around wildly as it powered forward.

However, the coolest thing about a BW350 is that it just might be the ultimate snow bike. Yeah, we know about those track kit conversions for dirt bikes, but are thosereally摩托车,或一种奇怪的混合动力车与第二次世界大战半导道更有共同之处?

另一方面,BW不需要轨道套件。所有它需要的都是愿意的骑手。见下文:

并且:

你可以感谢这些awesom犯人BigWheel先生e demonstrations of the BW350’s might. He hasn’t logged in here for a while, but you can see the excellent Big Wheel thread that he startedhere。You can find a lot more useful information there, as the thread is ongoing. There you can learn about all the wacky wonders of the BW350’s design, such as the dual-chain setup required to drive the rear wheel.

然后,有这个1987年BW350那advertised for sale on Cycle Trader. It’s in Florida (makes sense, it would demolish those sand trails), and the owner wants a cool $3,700. Oooooooh, that’s steep. But wait! The ad says it’s street legal!

如果这是真的,那是一个非常理想的功能,尽管购买后可能不一定会转移到您的管辖区内。这是另一个蠕虫的蠕虫。但是,如果你想要一个大型的大轮自行车,这就像它一样大量,越过当前的生产TW200和Suzuki Vanvan 200型号。你可以骑着它冬天......如果你敢。
