    a lil down on power compared to a true big open classer...but strong bottom/mid with a lil rush at the top. the 360 excels at working the bottom and mid as it pulls really well there. they were made 92-02...92-98 they had more of an all around power and 99-02 had more emphasis on grunt. most years had a heavy double wall pipe that was quiet and tough but really limited power. a good exhaust and proper adjustment of the powervalve will promote awesome torque.
    its a pretty versatile motor, i like the handiness of the torque. its always there and never really falls off. no matter how slow you get bogged down it always seems to have the power to get you up a tough hill or trail and right back up to speed.
    mines a 95. the motor fill fit into much newer chassis, and they all have true wr 6 speeds.

    They made an mx version in '93 I believe. It had a 5 speed and the cr ignition. My guess is that it was violent. All the other years were WR versions with the heavy flywheel and 6 speed. I fitted mine into my 06 WR250 frame pretty easily. You do need the 360 head stays as they are different than the 99 and on 250's. The 360 has a much heavier crank and much larger/heavier piston so you lose some of the lighter feeling of the 250. If you want the modern frame get an 01 or preferably an 02 WR360 as that frame is essentially the same as the WR250/300 up until the end of the Italian Huskies. You can also make the 99-02 360's rip everywhere with some breathing and power valve and pipe mods.
