[QUOTE="robj, post: 142182, member: 20401"] I don't think you'll like the seat height. My 01 WR125 is over an inch taller than my prevoious YZ. It must be between 37.5 and 38". The bikes have great engines for trail work and enduros. It pulls smoothly off the bottom into a wide and surprisingly strong midrange for a 125 (much more pull than the YZ) Top end is ok but not as wild as an MX'er. It'll ride well up gradients without bogging or having to clutch it. The bike has caught me out a few times climbs where I've been counting on the power running out and rolling up the last part but ended up doing a vertical exit. The build quality is great and I find the bike easy to work on. One bolt (back of tank) and you have the seat, tank and shrouds off the bike - in about 30 seconds. The wheel spacers stay stuck to the wheel, so they don't fall into the dirt when its apart. The ride is stable and reassuring on fast bends and it turns ok in the tight stuff. The suspension on mine is way too stiff even on open compression/rebound. I'm getting it revalved next week. While they're at it I'm going to get the bike lowered. Two birds with one stone. I'm pretty sure the gear ratios on the WR are the same as the CR so you might find 6th too low on tarmac or fast off road. There's plenty of FBF aftermarket bits for them. Mine is European spec so the detail might be slightly different to the States. The bikes are rare in UK but pretty popular in France/Spain/Italy. Petteri Silvan just won the 125 class in the world enduro championship on one. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
