(throttle limiter is history too......Mr. Hacksaw took care of that)
Is this enough "opening it up" IOT feel the difference?

The stock exhaust restriction is the reason why the cam timing is advanced in the first place on the WR.

It's important to know that you should to run a less restrictive silencer if you are going to retard the exhaust cam timing to match the YZF. The stock exhaust restriction is the reason why the cam timing is advanced in the first place on the WR.
Hey - I made the timing change yesterday and rode today. The trails here are tight, muddy New England style. The change took less than an hour, and would take me about 20 minutes to change it back - but I won't. The low end was not noticably different but the mid was all there. It was easy to loft the tire at any reasonable RPM on the trail - it was a big improvement in my eyes.Originally posted by RakO
Do you think that run a less restrictive silencer on my 250 WR would help for the "middle bogging effect" or I have to go for the YZ timing ?
I would like to keep the "technical trail" handling of the WR engine.
You are the man for that tip! Thanks that is exactly whet it did and wouldn't you know it - the clip was attached to the magnet after I popped the cap off.Originally posted by BCooper
If I had to do it again, I would slip the magnet under the front edge of the cam cap as I lifted it, so it would automatically grab the c-clip as the cam cap comes off.
That's it... I don't care if you have perfect weather. It's that you are only 15 minutes from your riding area that gets me :D ...well, what did you think of the change?Originally posted by Hawaii-Rider
free place to stay if you visit!?!?!?!?..I got 3 bikes........15 minutes from the riding area.......hmmmmmm
