I joined this site for same reason as I joined Triumph 676 site, for technical questions/support.

Both sites are very good for that.
But this WR R/X forum is so much more interesting and fun!

I really don't remember exactly the how as to finding this site, although I'm fairly certain I found it while searching "WR-250R" on the Internet.

I do remember the why, though:
I needed to find out how to get it uncorked before I rode the bike a second time. :)

I found out about it before it aired. The owners were talking about making it on another forum (ADV), and when the board hit the interwebz, I was on board.

Don't know how I got here, but I think I'll stay a while.....

You have my (other) dream bike.. the Street Triple R. Are you saying it's not as fun as the WRR? That can't possibly be!

The 675 Street Triple R is hugely fun!
It's the website that is NOT fun (edited my previous post to make it more clear.) The wr250 forum is comparatively a huge breath of fresh air.

The 675 triple is a really sweet engine. 105 HP, and nice torque too. Pulls well from 4K, but loves to rev too. And the intake stacks' throaty growl/roar is music to the ears.

Ok, that makes more sense

I took the Triple R for a test ride last year... I haven't been able to forget it since. Light, tight, fast, and fits me like a glove! The engine... oh the engine... *sighs*

You're a lucky, lucky man

I joined back when it started. I think She-wolf posted a link at Thumpertalk. I don't go there as often now that we have our own dedicated spot.

I've been a fan of the 675 triple engine since my friend bought a Daytona a few years ago. But I didn't like the Daytona's arse above hands riding position.

In 2008 I was very, very interrested in the newly released 675 Street Triple. But its non-adjustable suspension turned me off.

In February 09 I put a deposit on my blazing matte orange Street Triple R without ever seeing one in the flesh. For a mere $800 over the standard Streety the R added fully adjustable suspension at both ends and much better brakes. It's a supperb bike!

Triumph listens to its customers; Triumph is doing well these days...

I can't explain why, but for me the WR250X is a great stablemate for my STripleR, and vice versa. Whenever I think the WRX is a little down on power, I take the 675 out for a power fix.

I can't see adding to my stable any time soon - unless Yamaha releases a WR450R/X

from the great posts at adv ... who convinced me to buy this awesome machine ...

Internet searched all Winter for a new bike and boiled it right down to the WRR.

This forum is awesome

Google told me that this bike would make me forget about past DRZ's and XRL's...and then told me about this forum! Allaround great advise.
