[QUOTE="rmc_olderthandirt, post: 1430591, member: 68872"] In some states it is legal and fairly easy to convert a WR to a street legal bike. There is a kit sold by Baja Designs that gives you all the required lights and horn. I have the kit on my WR450 and use it for dual sport rides. But that said, I really don't recommend the WR for commuting to work. If you want a street bike, get a street bike. Dirt bikes don't make good street bikes, they are too top heavy. The gearing on the WR is sure not suited for highway speeds. Tires that work good in dirt are not good (usually not even legal) on the street and vice-versa. Bikes that are intended for racing or high performance will have a "high peformance" motor. These things are not built to go 100,000 miles. You should also consider that a dirt bike typically doesn't have a key switch or lock. If you parked the WR someplace, it may not be there when you got back.... I don't know what the going rate for bikes is in Michigan but I would consider $3000 for a '04 WR250F to be a bit on the high side. If the plate is legit, and it has the proper lights and turn signals, that would boost the value a bunch and I would say it was good. Rod [/QUOTE]
