I’m thinking your KTM buddy might wanna keep his feet on the pegs before he tears a leg off. It will help keep his ass off the seat too.

[@troyza450]

Yeah ur right haha. he won’t be doing that again, sold his bike ;-(

Is not too underpowered for long and steep climb? I am really interested in wr450 fi, but still want to keep a few years the ec300 just to improve and because is a cheap bike to learn more tehnical stuff on

[@troyza450]

Not at all but I’d get a aftermarket muffler it gives it so much more power, and the ability to remap it, can even remap it for more technical stuff

Love my we250f . Did you find the aftermarket pipe worth the money? Cheers

100% stock pipe has no low down torque at all and the aftermarket muffler has that and more through the whole rev range plus can use more maps with the aftermarket muffler

Would love to see another drag race if you had a more aggressive tune.

Never tried a more aggressive tune but I have beat him a couple times when it’s wet and slippery or loose

Hi mate any chance of posting the engine map your using, I'm waiting for my 2021 wr250f to arrive

@@richardsymyniuk6928 2018. Tune is good for slower more technical riding because it’s less likely to stall at low revs with a aftermarket muffler on, the standard is gutless down low

[@dannymac1112]

Currently looking between the wr250f and a 350 exc, any comment on how they compare back to back?

[@troyza450]

Daniel McInnes this is the 350xcf and is terrible is the slow technical riding it would lift the front wheel or stall, I’m sure the 350exc would be better in that type of riding but I couldn’t tell you, but compared to mine his hydraulic clutch is twice as heavy and you can feel that extra bit of weight on the 350

[@dannymac1112]

Thanks mate! 👍awesome vid btw. Might have to go put a deposit on the wr this weekend

[@troyza450]

Daniel McInnes no problem, cheers! Only thing I would recommend is a after market muffler and put in a different tune if your doing more technical riding

[@paahtopro3950]

id go for yamaha jsut because of the reliability

[@lostinpa-dadenduro7555]

Does the bike have a stable feel on the high speed sections?

[@troyza450]

LostInPA yes very stable and planted

[@troyza450]

jeff deathrage yeah you hit the nail on the head with that one, the 350xcf does feel a lot heavier, even it’s hydraulic clutch feels heavy and is terrible in the technical stuff just wants to stall or lift the front wheel, better in the open stuff. No doubt the 350exc would be much better in the technical stuff then the xcf though

[@Onetablit]

I’ve been riding a WR250F for a while now and i have to say its one of the best bikes i’ve ridden. Super lightweight, great handling, great suspension (best if set to your sag), super light clutch and throttle not to mention really easy to pop up for wheelies or over logs and rocks.

Thanks for answering. I went and rode it and it makes a weird noise when you accelerate and decelerate. Sounds like someone hitting hard plastic together. The cabin was loose and the noise seemed like it was just above the front sprocket. Any ideas if there is anything in that area to check. Thanks
