as some of you know i have been riding a 2011 Vstrom 650 for the last couple of years, while i did love this bike it is not what i wanted originally. i got talked into something that didn't fit my need. I have always, and will always love to get dirty on the trails and this is not the bike for this. So it went up for sale and sold very quickly. I picked up a brand spankin new 2014 Yamaha WR250R that will now slowly be made into the adventure bike i have always wanted!
this is the day i got her;
Bone stock i decided i needed to get out on the gravel. unfortunately it snowed that weekend but it didn't slow me down, got down to -14C in some of the higher bits and she ran like a champ.
I managed to get her out on some tight, twisty gnarly single track this last weekend and i had an absolute blast!
now let the modding begin... the fuel range on this thing is terrible (100km) range with a guy as big as me, but the power is good and it handles well! first thing i changed out was the bars to a renthal aluminum trials bend which really helped!
