Gearing is a great mod for WR250Rs if going off road, 1st gear isn't low enough and can stall easily.

Did most of those mods on my 2015, she rips pretty good for a 250 but the suspension needs some help as well.
@user-we5yo2yo1f2 жыл бұрын
Ya, like any bike at this price point, certain riders might need to upgrade suspension. For me and my riding, I never felt the need on this bike. We made some adjustments, and it was fine for me. Whereas on our CRF300L, I can already tell I want to throw maybe $1000 at the suspension, since that bike doesn't even give you any adjustments.

@@brianrichard1768 Nice. A modded WR250R is definitely no slouch. We have a couple 450L's here as well. The guy on the 450L looks like a big guy (heavy?), which definitely works against him, and in stock form those things are really choked up, probably moreso than the WR250R was in stock form. But ya, WR250R's are a great bike, and there's a reason they have a cult following. Still wondering why Yamaha dropped it after 2020. Hopefully it returns as a WR300R or WR450R!

Thank you for all the good information. I need to ride as quiet as possible. How much more than the original does the FMF system sound? And is it worth the while to install a Power Commander on a bike with stock exhaust?
@user-we5yo2yo1f2 жыл бұрын
The FMF Q4 is the quietest muffler available for the bike, but it's going to be louder than the stock exhaust. Not terribly loud by any means, but louder than stock. Add yes, the PowerCommander would be worth it. They have a map available for the stock exhaust, which will wake it up a little bit and still have that quiet stock exhaust note.

Lowering links diminish the suspensions capabilities and can affect the whole bikes handling, better to have the shock professionally lowered and front forks modified to allow for change in rear shock or bike can handle like crap. Yes to your other mods but sorry a big no to lowering link.
@user-we5yo2yo1f Жыл бұрын
Sorry, don't completely agree. Yes, having the shock re-done and forks re-done is often a better option, but it's also substantially more expensive. We've lowered a few of our bikes with the Yamalinks and Kouba links, and for the riding we do, they work fine. And we've sold 100's and 100's of these Yamalinks over the years. Companies like Yamalink and Koubalink wouldn't exist if what you said is true.

Hi so after the power/performance updates, what is the top speed on the highway as the STD WR250R is a bit dangerous when wanting to overtake other vehicles due to the lack of HP, asking if the updates make enough difference for value for money?
@user-we5yo2yo1f2 жыл бұрын
It definitely wakes the bike up, and I'd personally never leave one of these bikes with stock exhaust and fueling.... but it's still a 250 so you can't ever really expect it to have the ultimate in high speed overtaking performance. Alot of factors here.... gearing, weight of rider, aerodynamics, etc. I'm about 180 lbs with 13/46 gearing and the bike does OK at this, but still not quite what our DRZ400 can do, thanks to it's bigger torquier motor.

Yes, some parts will add weight. But stuff like skid plates and handguards will offer needed protection, and the some of that weight is down low (skid plate), so it's not real noticeable.
