    I ride 07 wr250. Love the bike, it's been great other than cracked cylinder before national enduro. I want to stay with the brand, but would love to plate my next one. Is it possible to ad 6th gear? Oh by the way, would also like a hydro clutch. Listening Husky, Don't want orange!

    If you are not in the really tight stuff you might get away with a sprocket swap. Am running 14/45 - gives pretty good top end, a friend runs a 15 on the front of his w a recluse

    Very easy swap if you can find a used tranny. Do a search on here there are posts related to that.

    it's not like the 360's grew on trees, I think there were more 250's
    I rarely see one advertised anymore
    to bad they won't sell a complete gearset, that would be a great way to sell some other parts
    if people put money in a bike they usually commit to more afterwards

    I'm wondering if anyone's looked into the availability of a replacement 360 gear set right from the factory :thinking:

    The six speeds came in 360s from 92-02 and WR250s from 92-98. I have a 92 360 transmission in my 04 WR250. I has low gearing for the tight stuff and still go 80+ MPH. I really like it.

    Yeah sorry for the typo- I corrected my post to say 92-98. My finger hit the 0 instead of the 9.
