I've used my KTM 790 AdvR for all kinds of 'tent' based fishing. I just listed it though...I find I'm using my Honda CT 125 more and more.

I've done a bit of research on this and I've rented and ridden a tw200 off road and on. It's a decent bike but it feels super old school. Honda has a new bike called the XR150L that's super cheap at 3k vs 5k of the tw. It's 4 pounds heavier and the seat is 1.7 inches taller so maybe still go with the tw200. I really trust hondas for reliability. I just sold my 84 xr250 in the spring and it was still running strong it just got hard to find parts to do some things I wanted but didn't need to do to replace the shift shaft.
There's also a crf230L I would look for. I had a non street legal crf and I loved it. Never should have sold it honestly. They're 11 pounds lighter than the tw and the seat is only .8in higher, but that's a needle in a haystack. I like your idea of these kinds of adventures and may have to get one myself.

You can buy klr650 cheaper than you can buy the tw200
And I watched a comparison video on the 2 bikes your talking about I like the fat tires on the tw200
My first motorcycle ride was on a Honda 50 v step thu
Honda runs forever when I out grew it the motor was in a mini dune buggie still running and I sold it I was yamaha 175 Enduro then ect.....

The other thing I was looking at is one of the new electric dirt bikes coming out. They're pretty damn light, low maintenance and it would be cool to not make so much noise and they're not crazy expensive. Just can't go super far.
