The Flyin Hawaiian:
Welcome to the site! I had a 97 WR 250, the last year they were sold here. My brother had a 95. Great bikes when setup properly. I think the WR 2 stroke is still available in Canada and Europe. I saw a picture of a 04 steel framed WR 2 stroke just recently. It had turn signals and all!

Platypus:
Yeah the WR is a killer bike and they should have kept making it but I guess the demand was not there.  I have the long rod kit in mine which helped tame it down and made the power more tractable.  I have been looking for a replacement for a long time with no luck, not that it needs it but I wanted to have it on hand when the time came.  I have a 93-95 YZ seat and tank for it too to slim it up on short rides.  Anyone else here from the socal area?  I am always down for a weekend of riding if I don't have plans already.  I am not the ride 5 miles drink a 6 pack rider...I prefer longer rides at a decent pace and need a ton more practice on single track. 

The Flyin Hawaiian:
I slimmed mine down too. I am friends with the guy that makes the carbon fibre guards for E-Line Offroad and he used to make the tanks for Yamahas offroad team. He had a mold for the WR and made me a 3 gallon YZ slim tank and I used a YZ seat with it. Ill try to post a pic of it.

KXcam22:
I can predict that you are really going to like that 500. Get the jetting sorted first thing and the power gets really smooth. Cam.

gwcrim:
Ah yes, a veritable plethora of information! :mrgreen:
