Thought I'd add something else about the WR250R that I only remembered on my way out and back from my girlfriend's college this weekend, about a 200 mile ride all highway each way. The bike's alternator puts out 350w of electrical with about 250w of that in reserve.
It was sure nice to have the electrical juice to run the heated grips and jacket (warm and safe 65w) on their highest settings, heated gloves and socks at about 50%, with my GPS running, at 65-70mph when the temps dripped into the low 40's to high 30's F.
