WR-R vs. WR-F ?
Good advice Ian.
Is the WR250R model the road legal one that is now selling in Japan?
Here we only have the F, never had any road legal WR's here.
What iv'e heard is that the road legal model is really quite different. Lots less power. Different cams, compression, valve timing, and also quite a bit heavier.
But perhaps a longer lasting motor since it's in a de-tuned state? Might be a wise move. I've ridden the WR250F (and 450) on a number of occasions and am thinking it will be my next dirt bike. Very reliable, best among the modern four strokes.
Suzuki are set to come out with a new street legal Dual Sport bike for '08 (or so I've heard). It will replace the current DRZ400S. I'm hoping they do a 250 version as well.
Buy an old beat Van for transporting your dirt bike. Get a buddy to go in with you....saves lots.
Cheers,
Patrick
