WR250 Posted October 4, 2008 Author Share Posted October 4, 2008 thanks for that, tbh, i dont think the 450 is street legal here in the uk either, as its the F, they dont do it in the R or X versions. the slightly off putting bit about the 250R is the black frame etc, as ive seen it in silver and prefer it, but i think the R uk version has black.

Gas up - Let's Go! Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 just looking at getting my first bike for off road/ also daily commute (short journey to work) so, im going with the WR im thinking the 250r or can anyone comment on the WR450, which would do me best? TIA Don't want to confuse you any, but are you looking to purchase new, or second hand? If you are in the 2nd hand market then take a look at the TTR's - I run a TTR600E that I use for winter commuting and green lane's. I've lost count of the people who have questioned this, but the fact that the TTR is air cooled and is no heavier than most 400's makes this a good bike for both. It'll sit at 70-80mph, and takle most off road stuff, unless you're more trial than trail... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
