Great price if it is "new". I have been riding one since March. LOVE IT. I ride both track and woods. I have geared mine down (13T front instead of 14T stock front)....equivalent to 3+ teeth off the back sprocket, and far less expensive. Probably my best mod. I have not added a flywheel, but have found stalling less of a problem as RPM's typically run higher w/ smaller sprocket.
Starting is your main hurdle. Learn this process ASAP. I had problems at first (45 minutes first time at track). Since I studied and experimented and learned....never had a problem, hot or cold starts.
Add bars to your list. The factory Yamaha bars are butter. Renthals solve that problem. You can wreck a da of riding really quick if you bend 'em.... as you know.
Power: Awesome. Are your in the tight Eastern woods? I am in Colorado where the woods exist but are less dense. The bike is great. To me, power=confidence.
Good luck..
If you wen't from a 14 to a 13 counter sprocket it is equal to adding 3 teeth on your rear.

Anyone have the WR426 gear ratio specs?
I imagine that you will have to flog it

Thanks for posting the WR ratios. According to what I've worked out, I'd have to run 59/13 sprockets to come close to what the WR first gear ratio is, and that's assuming the WR comes stock with 49/14 sprockets and if it's even possible to put a 59 tooth rear sprocket on without modifying the chain guide. This would also bring the top speed down to around 67 mph. Of course, I'm doing this late at night - maybe someone could check out my numbers? :confused:
