WR250R - Too much? Farkles make it?

[chivvalry]

08 with around 2500 miles,has just about all popular mods on it,

FMF exhaust, programmer, speed healer, air box mods, bars, pegs, controls, tires chain gearing, Seat Concepts, Cee Bailey, Edge taillight, leds, skids, rad guard, handguards, mirrors, case saver, rear rack and rear bag, has lowering link.... Stock gas tank... that's probably the first mod I would do to it... upgrade to an IMS 3 gallon.

$5000? Too much?

 

[chivvalry]

Crickets?

 

[FastSpy]

seems a bit high for a 08.. I'd offer $4400.

 

[chivvalry]

Yeah, said he could do that but would strip exhaust, healer, skids, programmer etc.

I think I got a fair deal for how many mods he's got on it. Maybe not a great deal though... Hope she rides as good as she sounds!

 

[Niehart]

Nice!

 

[chivvalry]

Thanks! Can't pick it up until the 30th as that will be the first chance I have to do the 2 hr drive out with a borrowed pickup...

Hey Ken, just make sure that you don't use up all your hall passes riding that thing...save some for the FJR

Ha, don't worry... that toy is intended for local use vs. multiday trips. Might slap on some luggage for an overnight camping trip up to the Allegheny National Forest once in a while though...

Nice score! WRR's are great bikes. Same reason I picked up my CRF250L, save the big girl for day+ trips. I just use the 2fitty for commuting and a little trail exploring when I don't have time to really go anywhere on a Sat/Sun. Feels the same when I get back, you don't have to go far to get that feeling, just have to see some new stuff.

Still waiting for my buddy to upload the video from our Sequin Trail ride (80km all single track) last fall.

The feej will still get her legs stretched quite often even locally. I love her too much to let her languish. I just can't take her on those little trails I keep seeing! Even if I put some knobbies on her I don't think she's up for single track, lol!

I'm not sure! This BMW seemed to do OK!!!

 

[chivvalry]

Wow. That guy has more mad skillz than me!

OR

Just more parts available at cost!!!

If I read the story correctly, that is Max, from www.maxbmwmotorcycles.com

If I could drop my bike and get new plastics for cost I might spoon some TKC80's on my FJR!

$5,000 does seem a little high but the WRs are hard to come by. I just picked up a 2011 DRZ400 1600 miles with a couple of mods for $4,600.

 

[chivvalry]

Yeah, my other choices after a couple weeks looking were wait longer in the hopes of a better deal or buy a brand new one for around $6k and start modding it myself. There were one or two slightly better deals that would have involved shipping a bike across a couple states... which made them not so great deals.

You can drive yourself nuts looking all over for the perfect deal.

FWIW, we are doing this all wrong:

LOL at the tow ball on that monster!
