[QUOTE="beer_stud_76, post: 616038, member: 34459"] bob brooks - a few things: 1) no 450 is a "big thumper" 2) IMO, the 4 speed tranny is a serious limiting factor. 1st is just too high 3) if you didn't like the '99 YZF400 in the woods, you'll HATE the yzf450. the lack of flywheel effect you mentioned is still a problem, the high bottom-low top gear box is great on a track, not so much everywhere else. 4) the WR version is quite a lot more choked up from the factory and has slower cam timing and so forth. most people that get the WR eventually do all the YZF mods to it. 5) i've never seen one, but if you were industrious and had your heart set on blue, get a YZF and put a WR tranny in it, and maybe a gas tank with a reserve. 6) be sure you look good and hard at the new 300EXCs before you decide on a YZF. jeremiah [/QUOTE]
