Such a clean build! Will be doing something very similar and ordering many parts from your site to support this channel. Thanks for sharing all of these builds, they really have helped me in my journey with the WR250R.
Damn man where are you located ? When I get mine I want you to make it exactly like that one and also would like it lowered this is the best one I’ve seen
Nice looking WR250R!!! Lots of great mods but the exhaust and computer/ignition mods are a total waste of money -- the performance gains are from making the bike slightly lighter (mostly in your wallet).
We disagree. That bike is corked up from the factory, especially in the early part of the power band. EJK EFI controller and aftermarket exhaust wakes it up nicely, and makes the power delivery much better and gets rid of that dead spot in the lower RPM's.
That is very cool! I love the black rims. Where did you get those decals from? I need a FMF as well but impossible to find! That bike is so nice, I think I'd be afraid to ride and get it dirty. :)
Unfortunately I haven't heard anything about a replacement. My thinking is we will either see a Tenere 300 based on the MT-03 street bike, or maybe a WR450R based on the WR450F, kind of like what Honda did with the CRF450L/RL.
@@G19Jeeper Yamaha is having a lot of problems producing bikes right now. They can't even get enough Tenere 700's out to meet demand, so any new model from Yamaha is gonna be a ways out IMHO. I'd try to find a WR250R new or used.
We've never weighed the bike before and after. Exhaust system and wheels are going to drop the most weight. You'll add some back by adding protective parts, racks, etc... no way around that really. It's probably a wash in the end.
SRmotodotcom well you have great looking bikes and I’ll keep a lookout for any bikes you may sell one day. Thanks for the videos and keep up the good work!
Yes we did. Expect about a 10-15% increase in power/torque. But the numbers are sorta of meaningless on a small 250 like this, but it does wake the bike up substantially and makes it much more fun to ride, plus drops a little weight.
Tried to drop the forks down a bit this am after installing my yamalink. I couldn’t get the first fork to budge after taking off front wheel and loosening fork clamps. Any suggestions?
You have to take a screw driver or something to pry with and pry apart the triple clamps a bit and pull down at the same time and they'll drop right out.
Sometimes they might be a little snug still. I find that it helps to give them a little twist back and forth as you're pulling down. Easier if you've got an extra set of hands around
You'd need to add whatever items you want to your shopping cart via our website and let it add the total up. We do not "build" bikes for customers at this time, so we just ship them to you, and you'd have to install everything, or have it done at a local shop.
@@SRmotodotcom OK sounds good. Once source saves a lot of hassle and as long as there isn't an extra profit margin on top of normal retail, which I am guessing there isn't as you buy from the manufacturers at trade wholesale, then that works.
I have the same mods on mine and the throttle is jerky in 1st and 2nd at low speeds and it bogs if I try to snap open the throttle. Ejk settings for stage 1
@@anonymous_friend I can’t tender of hand. I went to a forum for the bike and they gave me better settings to put in the programmer and it worked out really well. I think idle and runnoff settings (whatever they’re called I adjusted and it became smooth. I sold it and bought a motorcycle. Ducati scrambler
Not real sure since we never did that filter kit on it's own, but it's probably not going to run quite right since it will be taking in more air. But as mentioned, we never did that one on it's own so it's hard to say for sure.
We dropped about 7-8 lbs with the aftermarket exhaust, and saved a few lbs with the wheels too... so that helps offset the small amount of weight added with protective bits like skid plate, handguards, etc. So the bike probably hasn't added any weight when compared to stock.
I’m converting 2016 WR450 to dual sport for the TAT. I’ve ordered LED front lights and tail lights and I’m trying to decide how I want to get DC power to them and have it wired correctly (no battery draining, etc).
Not sure on that. Our bike is a WR250R so we didn't have to worry about that. I'd contact Baja Designs... they seem to have some really good info and products relating to converting off-road bikes to dual sport.
Fountain Of Truth I know this is a late reply but Vegas RoManiac did some videos on how to convert alternating current from the stator to direct current for running led lights.
Connor Mainey Thanks. The older bikes had a weaker stator and ran mostly on A/C. These newer ones have 150w stator and Yamaha told me I’d be fine running anything I wanted off the battery...we’ll see.
@@SRmotodotcom THANK YOU FOR THE REPLY SIR FINAL QUESTION I CURRENTLY HAVE 13/47 ON MY WR250R WHAT WOULD BRING MY SPEED UP I RESIDE IN LOS ANGELES AND USE MY BIKE TO COMMUTE SO THE EXTRA SPEED WOULD HELP TREMENDOUSLY
Great mods, but if you need a gear indicator doohickey, your not doing it right. You should feel your bikes power band, And adjust accordingly. You actually fall out of the sweet zone when you are looking at gauges. The only gauge you need is fuel!
I love having a gear indicator on the bike. I don't look at it much when riding off-road, but when I'm on the street I use it quite a bit. Sometimes its just handy to look down and see what gear your in. That's why a lot of newer bikes are coming with them and I welcome it.
What does it matter LOL? We build these bikes here at the shop to test out parts and figure out what works and what doesn't, but the average WRR rider doesn't need to install everything on their bike that we do. You modify the bike to fit your own riding needs.
Hello greetings .. Gentleman excellent videos and beautiful motorcycles. I have a 2005 Yamaha TTR250cc to which I would like to modify its rims to supermoto. Gentleman that earrings, how can I buy them ... ?? I would like you to help me, thank you.

This is the cleanest looking wr250r I've seen. Amazing work.
By far the best looking wr250 I've seen 👍
Such a clean build! Will be doing something very similar and ordering many parts from your site to support this channel. Thanks for sharing all of these builds, they really have helped me in my journey with the WR250R.
I absolutely love your project bike. If I get a WR I’d like to basically copy your setup. It’s gorgeous.
Glad I found this channel, love dual sport bikes.
Picking up a brand spankin new 2020 tommorow. Stoked!
Jesus this bike is beautiful
Man that looks clean. Love it.
That lotus is looking fire in the background
Best wr250r in the world!
From South Africa
Great channel! Keep it up!
New subscriber here. Very neat bike. I may buy one this week.
Such a sweet bike .. can’t wait for mines in 3 weeks #2019
Such a good looking bike. All it's missing is a big bore kit
Damn man where are you located ? When I get mine I want you to make it exactly like that one and also would like it lowered this is the best one I’ve seen
Do you guys sell your project bikes. They way you guys do your build is amazing. I’ll buy one
Good video thank you you forgot to mention the mirrors.
The mirrors are Double Take Enduro's.... soloracer.com/wrrdtenduro.html
Es hermosa...
Can I keep the original front signal lights as it is and the Zeta Hand guard lights works as well. Will those lights drain the battery?
Hi-Great looking WR and nice vid.
No rear shock and front suspensions adjustments?
Essencial for WR would not you say ?
Go-Race upgrade would be awesome, but adds the cost ofc. Love thoose rims.
Mann would love to buy this bike or have you made me one from a new bike!
Would love to see this on a KLX250 Dual Sport.
Really really nice result, good Job!
How much does it weight with all these mods?
Not real sure on that.... we haven't ever weighed it.

Nice looking bike. What hubs did you use that will work with the speedo?
Those are SM Pro dirt wheels, so it utilizes their own hubs, which look to be similar to OEM, but just anodized blue.
Sir Have you Dyno this wr250r if so what are the numbers thank you?
How easy is to swap from supermoto wheels to knobbys ?
That is very cool! I love the black rims. Where did you get those decals from? I need a FMF as well but impossible to find! That bike is so nice, I think I'd be afraid to ride and get it dirty. :)
All the details are on the project bike page: www.srmoto.com/yamaha-wr250r.html
So you can basicaly repurpose a wr250x into an r version?
How much did all the mods run??
What would be the Cost of All these upgrades ? ... Awesome Bike!!!
Bobby Sutton You read my mind. Sounds like it might double the price of the factory bike, literally. Clean, great-looking build though!!
Also curious of this, id love to make mine look like this weapon
Probably just $22,000
@@LongDistanceMotorcycleFans haha thanks for the good laugh
Informative video thanks. Any news on Yamaha's replacement if any for this bike?

After all the mods how much$
What number settings did you end up doing with your programmer?
We are using the pre-programmed settings the EJK EFI came with, for "stage 1" mods.
With all these parts / upgrades is there any weight savings or weight gain?
We've never weighed the bike before and after. Exhaust system and wheels are going to drop the most weight. You'll add some back by adding protective parts, racks, etc... no way around that really. It's probably a wash in the end.
Do y’all ever sell any of the bikes you are building?
So far we have not. Maybe eventually, like when a bike goes out of production and there are no longer new parts being made available.
SRmotodotcom well you have great looking bikes and I’ll keep a lookout for any bikes you may sell one day. Thanks for the videos and keep up the good work!
can you advise whats better/what the pros-cons are with the EJK v.s. Power commander?
We use the EJK on both our WR250R and WR250X. IMHO it's all you need on these bikes.
SRmotodotcom thanks for your input. Really appreciate you guys!
I am located in South East Asia, could you do the shipping here?
Not this time.
Have you dynoed the bike to see if the upgrades did anything?
Yes we did. Expect about a 10-15% increase in power/torque. But the numbers are sorta of meaningless on a small 250 like this, but it does wake the bike up substantially and makes it much more fun to ride, plus drops a little weight.

Brett, how much roughly would all these mods cost on a customer supplied WR250R, everything done the same? What State are you based in?

WHATS THE GEARING ON IT SIR AND WHATS THE TOP SPEED ON THAT PARTICULAR RATIO THANK YOU.

Hopefully this bike makes contact with dirt at some point.
It does not see much dirt thanks to our location in Ohio. It spends most of it's life converted to a supermoto.

About about much as the bike costs hahah
