    The verbal handshake has happened and a new WR 300 will be headed from Bill's Motorcycles Plus in Salem to my garage in Eugene this Saturday morning.

    Woo Ho...o and it will be great to have a good 2-stroke.

    TE610 for the road and dirt road, WR300 for off-road and track.

    I just think of this as my little contribution to Bills shop move; one less bike to roll across the parking lot to the new building.

    First mods coming up ... Hyde Skidplate, Keihin carb and bigger tank.

    Thanks again to Bill for being a great dealer.

    I didnt like Shotgun on a CRF450... but the WR might make it fun.

    I used to think I liked riding those trails on my yz250. Until I got the 300, that is.

    SOOOOO much easier, which results in less fatigue, less crashing and longer rides!

    Way to go! The 300 will compliment the 610 very well. Enjoy

    Nice! There's not much better than day 1 with a new bike.

    How many times have you been to the garage to admire it so far?

    Bill said the same. He has one more 300 in stock though.

    Congrats on the 300!

    I had my WR125 tore down greasing all the bearings the day I brought it home. The wife just couldn't understand why I would tear the new bike apart. Silly wife.... :D

    I believe they still have 1-2 125's i know where one is if anyone wants one.

    Edit - Taskys does have WR125's and WR250 at screaming deals.

    It is a Clarke tank 3.7 gal. It is listed as an earlier 4 stroke tank, but it fits right on. Just had to trim the radiator shrouds a bit. I will post up a pic when I get home.
