You might want to check it if you are considering to buy this dirt bike. It all depends on what kind of riding are you going to do on this wr450.

Well its an older bike so chances are the suspension and springs are clapped. That could be why its shorter because I'm pretty sure stock height is the same as your rmz.
It's for low center of gravity!
The dislikes you have stated are things that are part of the "Yamaha Experience"......as I responded to one of your earlier posts, the Yams are an acquired taste. The qualities you've mentioned are characteristics that have been with the bikes for some time. Part of how Yamahas handle and feel can be traced clear back to the '70's when Yamaha began to make money and "buy" Husqvarna test riders and racers. The guys testing the bikes were used to the handling characteristics of the old Husqvarnas and steered the Yam engineers into getting the production bikes to handle like what they were used to riding. Stable at speed? Yup. Strong motors? Yup. Need to anticipate setting up for corners? Yup. There have been some departures from those handling quirks, especially in the 125 two-stroke YZ's. For me, it would always take me more time to set up a Yamaha than other bikes to get it to handle the way I liked. It was almost as if the parts were all good but they didn't like being together. Seeing that I was blasting thru the desert ar warp speeds, I could tolerate the Yams better than a lot of guys the raced on the track or in the woods. Squeeze EZ Rado! Tom
A 450 is never going to be real nimble on tight trails. That’s what a 250 is for.
Are you certain a previous owner hasn't lowered it?
Your suspension is clapped out mate
I am 54 and just bought a 03 WR 450F and your videos are so helpful, thanks!
I don't own a wr, but my friend do and have owned a bunch. From what they tell me the suspension is notoriously soft and ca do with a bit harder springs and divergent valving. That may also be why the bike is hitting stuff on its belly.
I Dont like low bikes at all..
I hate the shape of all the headlights on any of the new bikes..1980s look..
Love
True, front end is low, I ve installed a fat handlebar and risers to get more ergonomy
There are always some things that will piss us off eve a new bike has its idiosyncrasies. We just make provision for or avoid certain things. The things you mentioned are normal. I had bikes that others couldnt ride but i could. So there you have it!
is there a way to fix those problems with after market products?
I agree on every aspect. I had a 450 and was impossible to pick where to go.. just rammed everything like you said.. its indestructible.. so now I changed for a 2 stroke yz250x and its like riding a bicycle, its super light, you can turn wherever you want to go.. use it for enduro, hard enduro and single track..
Love my older 2005 WR450F.
Oh l didnt realize this was an old bike vid on my last comment other WR vid haha...
is the seat origenal height? looks little low?
What does this guy think about it compared to the 450 eXC?
