WRpaddy Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Thinking of getting a 250R, does anyone have one and can tell me what they are like to ride, especially on trails/ green lanes? Ive seen parts are pritty easy to get hold of and i know it will be reliable. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dryskier Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I've got the 250R. I find it fine for both off & on roading. The only downside I've found when green laning is its a bit heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
busyeddie Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Unless you go trail riding on a c90 or DT you wont find much lighter. Try a Drz 400, there heavy but very capable. Ive never met anyone with a bad wr. Although some say they wish they had bought a 450. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan09 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 The R looks a really good bike as the service intervals are well spread, looks pretty and isnt as highly strung as the F model. The only reason i dont own one is the price! Its ridiculously high for a 250 trail bike when you can pick up a drz or similar for a fraction of the cost and will go on for ever. Or if its just for green laning maybe look at a ktm 250 exc-f? Will most likely be cheaper and is a lot lighter and are also very reliable. I also wish the made a modern wr 400r that would be awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
