Message: [QUOTE="wrooster, post: 128242, member: 21800"] a) the wr weighs about 15-17 pounds more than the yzf-- the headlight, tailight, odometer, exhaust system, coolant reservior, kickstand, steel subframe, chain, and steel sprocket all are contributors to the the heavier wrf. moreover, the extra gallon and change of fuel that the wrf carries around adds another 7-8 pounds. b) in order to get the engine/tranny from wrf mode to yzf mode you need to change the timing, plus swap out 1st, 3rd, 4th and 5th gears. and, the wrf has a heavier flywheel than the yzf, which makes it less prone to stalling. if i'm not mistaken, the wrf has a *slightly* different clutch config, in terms of the number (or was it type?) of plates. c) small correction, the vortip was licensed by white borthers, it is a [url]http://www.finelinesuspension.com/[/url] product. the wrooster '01 wr250f [/QUOTE]
