[QUOTE="MWEISSEN, post: 17459, member: 16873"] I had the same apprehension when I bought my '99 WR400. I was coming off an XR250, and wanted the same ultra-high reliability. I'll say that I've been very impressed with the WR's reliability. I'd say it's BETTER than the Honda. I had to keep an eye on the valve adjustment on the Honda. While I check it on the WR, it's only been out once. It hasn't changed since then. Areas to watch on the bike: 1) watch grease in the head bearings, the hot oil melts it out. Use LMX red grease, it doesn't melt out like Bel-Ray waterproof grease. 2) change the oil religiously like any four stroke. 3) Yamaha needs to learn that everyone hates the stock seat and tank. Save your pennies for a YZ seat and aftermarket tank (or buy a used YZ tank - there's a bunch on the market). ------------------ Mark '01 YZ250F '99 WR400F, '98 Royal Star TC '97 XR250 '96 XR200 '99 XR100 [/QUOTE]
