I am currently riding a 2019 KTM 300xc. I have been considering going back to a 4 stroke only for the simple fact that I like the option to just swing into a gas station if need be. The WR 450 is at the top of my list. I also have a KTM 890 adventure R. Also a monster on the trails. Do you miss the 2 smoker?

Interesting I also have a KTM890R adventure. I've now sold the Yamaha WR450 and gone back to a 2017 KTM300EXC Six day bike. I've been planning to make some more videos but haven't had time. The Yamaha is a great bike. However, for the sort of riding I do the two stroke suits me better. I like hardcore single track and slower more technical riding. As flexible as the WR is with the power tuner. It's still no two stroke.

My titled and plated 2021 WR450F failed from a rod seizure at 7200 miles. I do maintain my bikes as recommended in the manual (seems every time someone mentions their Yamaha failed everyone jumps on the old lack of maintenance standby). Still trying to figure out what caused the failure. I've been hearing some talk on the street 2021 was not a good year for Yamaha dirt bikes. The bike is home with a new bottom end. I wonder how long this rebuild will last. Great bike hopefully it will not spin a rod at 7000 miles again.

Nice bike and good to hear from a NZ perspective 👍 How do you find it in the slow going? Is it prone to stalling like other modern 4 strokes? If the 4 strokes could be made to lug then 2 strokes would lose their only real advantage. Not much weight difference these days. Cheers.

Hey Richard, No four stroke will ever lug like a two stroke which is almost diesel like with regards to stalling. However the WR is pretty dam good. Load the right fuel and ignition timing into it and it's better than any other modern four stroke I've owned with EFI. I'll try and get a video up loaded of me in the yard with it lugging around with no clutch at all.

@@twowheelpilot Thanks for the info. I have a 2020 wr 250f and love it. Plenty of power and very snappy, picks up revs in an almost 2 stroke like fashion. Only problem is that it can stall pretty easily in the real tight stuff. I've played with the mapping and it's certainly a great feature but I think the light flywheel and cam timing is probably the real issue. I had a 2019 250fx and it lugged really well but they changed things on the 2019 yz 250f and that was carried through to the 2020 wr250f. I realise the 2 strokes have the advantage due simply to the fact they are firing twice as often but they run out of puff pretty quick too. Looking forward to seeing you do some technical stuff. Thanks again.

Guess it's all down to cost. However I've seen plenty of KTM's with painted flexible plastics peeling. My own 990 did that. In fact I've taken a look at a friends 1290 and that has decals instead of paint with it's semi flexible plastics. I guess that's why KTM stopped painting their ADV bikes. I hear what you are saying about decals however my comment stands regarding paint and non flexible plastics. Show room appeal helps sell bikes and paint does look great even if it's not a very practical application on a adventure bike.
