Hello, thought I'd introduce myself and share my excitement
I just picked this up on Friday. I've been dreaming of getting one of these for several years and things finally came together so that finally could do it. I had a KLR650 several years ago and really enjoyed it but it was just too big and heavy for the trails I wanted to ride. I gave up having a dual sport and replaced it with a Concours. While I really like the Concours I also kept thinking how much I enjoyed and missed riding on the trails. So a few weeks ago I put my Concours up for sale and started searching for a WR250R. As luck would have it, I found a deal I could not pass up despite the fact that I not sold my Concours yet. 2008 with 500 miles, for $3500. Its bone stock but for the price, I had to jump on it! Can't wait to hit the trails again!
Just joined this forum this morning after having been a lurker for a long time. Lots of great info here.
