    Looking at buying a 1975 250wr.
    Looks like a 1974 250wr with different engine
    where the CR looks like different suspension
    and engine from 74 to 75.
    I am I seeing this correctly?

    Thanks

    Thanks for posting those brochures it appears that the WRs were a year behind the CRs for 75 with them still using an MK frame vs ML on the CR.
    I bought my first Husky in 76 as a WR with the ML frame and 32 degree rake.
