125-200cc Just bought a 2011 WR150

Can't help it. 310 is great and all but spent too many years on Husky 125's. Hearing about all the fun the rest of the old farts are having....I am going to return to the fold. No arrival date yet but at least I am in line.

Joe

I want one too !!

It's all the fumes from that blender causing withdrawl.

Nice ... well your just one lucky SOAB -- less of the old farts .. the truth hurts

I've essentially "bought" a CR 150 as well. I'm first on the list when they get here.

Way to go Joe !

Its good to keep a fresh tiddler in the garage....


I took out my 08 TC250 and put the light kit on it(I wired it so its plug and play)....its been sitting for the most part the past year.....spent most of sunday on it in very mucky conditions.....and its nice to have torque for a change...and the forks are a world apart(plush and smooth) even though they are the same as the WR(which I thought were decent after some work)...???

But I cant finesse it like the WR 125... such great balance in the tight bush and everywhere else too....big mudbogs..over logs.. all done with feet on the pegs.....finger on the clutch....and one on the front brake

Its telepathic and more fun too !!!

Joe,

Welcome back and you are going to love it. My prediction is that you will have a hard time going back to the 300 after flicking the 150 around. It will go everywhere the 300 goes only easier and faster.

Joe has another small bore Husky (besides the WR150) in his life now, but I'll let him tell about it when he's ready.....

Norman,

I can't help myself so here goes: He has a hard time lifting that 300 over the logs so he picked up a Husky small saw to deal with the problem.

Just my guess,
Walt

Have any pics of the bike been released yet?

One with the press release that looks weird.... '99 style rear rotor, '08 style front rotor, '09 small fuel tank, '09 vertical rear shock reservoir. We'll have to see one in the flesh....

Don't forget the "50"mm Kayaba forks that they mention. I think they are lying about there shoe size.

150 supposed to ship next week. Break it in.......send legs to WER and Then I call Motosportz for "stuff" during the down time legs are at WER (never been more than 5 days...Drew is a suspension machine!).

Where can I reach Drew?

I need the forks done on my TE250.

If he is still in Jenny Jump NJ I'll bring the whole bike and let he and Ben sort it out for me.

yes. he is still there. Don't know if Ben still is.
