I miss my WR250R. I loved it but had to sell it for financial reasons. It was kinda crappy for trying to get to the far away trails but once you were on the trails it was awesome. That thing would climb just about any hill I tried to tackle with it.
Must feel really good in the nuts to be in a motorcycle at 80mph in the highway with your fly down in a hot day. You're as happy as a lil kid with a new toy. I'm happy for you CC
That's how I was when I got my CRF. I hadn't ridden a dirt bike in 20 years and I couldn't believe I waited so long to get a dual sport. I felt like a little kid. They are fun to ride on the street but off road is where the fun really begins! I can't wait for you to find some good trails or a gravel pit. You will have a blast!!! Congrats on the new bike!
The first mods you get should be protection type mods like a skid plate, radiator guards, hand guards etc... When getting a Dual sport/dirt bike the question isn't "if I'm going to drop it" but "how many times am I going to drop it" lol
It's cool to see you on the DS for the first time as you discover how much fun it is to get off pavement and go wherever you want. The upright posture suits that style of riding and the suspension just soaks up all the bumps. I went from a cruiser to a KLR and don't ever see myself going back. Now go find yourself some dirt/gravel roads out in the country and see what you've been missing.
Welcome to the wonderful world of dual sport riding. Go anywhere, anytime. No road or trail or obstacle is off limits. Now you know what we have all been saying man. You will ride that way more than you think you will. Have a blast man!
+Evil Droid I knw all along and even wanted this as a first bike but figured there were no trails around here, however, I can make my own trails. lol Also, I have the bug out van to go to any trails in the country.
If you're concerned about your gas tank size you should check out IMS, they make both 3 and 4.7 gallon tanks for the wr250r. Also a couple things that might be worth investing in, 1 1/8" bars and a set of handguards. The Bars won't bend in a low speed off-road crash like the stock ones and they'll also allow you to mount a gps/phone in the middle of your bars. The handguards will again prevent your levers braking in a off-road crash and are necessary if you wan't to ride through overgrown areas without having you brake lever pushed by a tree/bush.
Draft_ Yeah I will get some hand-guards but don't have time now because I'm getting prepared to leave. I won't be doing any hairy trails, just some dirt roads in the mountains. I may screw around though. lol
Was really nice watching this man! Felt almost being there with you. That's why we ride. Honest, pure reaction dude, really nice! I want to go ride right now!!! :D
nice man! I felt the same way when I first rode my dual-sport (and still feel that way every time)..just so much fun to ride everything and go everywhere..
EXCELLENT!!!!! I was browsing "250 cc dual purpose bikes" and saw a lot of technical reviews, comparisons between similar models, statistics, etc. And then I stumbled upon your review. Your unbridled enthusiasm and passion about this bike and riding had me hooked. I loved every minute of your commentary on this ride. I have owned 3 bikes in my life: a Suzuki 50 cc Gamma as a 16 year old kid, a Kawasaki 650 cc Zephyr as a student and a Suzuki 1100 V-Twin Cruiser in my early 40's (as a Sunday breakfast run ride). Damn you!!! I am buying this tomorrow!!!! Thank you for re-lighting my fire.
Wow man. After my last comment and your response on your other vid, I really didn't think you'd go for the wr! Mine is also a new 2014. I think you made a great choice, I've been having a ton of fun on mine all summer. Hope you have as much fun as I'm having. Great vids cycle! Keep up the good work.
Georgi Kiriakov Most fun I've had so far. Speeding and twisties are fun BUT off-road is more fun and void of cagers. However, trees take the place of cagers off-road. lol
Beautiful cycle Cruza... From a Chinese scooter to Cbr 250 and the. to your 600 double R .... Then your fire blade and now an Enduro.... !!?? You sir are truly the cycle CruzA King
I am old school dirt. 2 stroke raging in the desert. Never rode a street bike. I felt safer off road and we were crazy. Kinda the opposite of you. Loved seeing you have some fun and I know much more is to come. Cheers.
I have a 2017 and my speedometer is off too. Somewhere around 5 mph off so Yamaha hasn't fixed that problem if you're wondering. I do have a problem with crosswinds. It can get sketchy at higher speeds when the wind is coming from the side. Especially a big wind gust. I won't ride on the interstate anymore because of that fact. Other than those two things I mentioned, the WR250R is a very nice bike. I have been hitting the trails and going up stuff I never thought I could on this little bike. This bike definitely impresses me!
wow my first dirt bike was a new amf harley davidson sx-175 about 1976 800 bucks out the door,it was street and dirt legal and you bring back memories bro.now i'm 60 and a cruiser I have a 2006 suzuki boulevard m50,it's not a screamer but it's stock and makes me happy for a cruiser.Anyway be carefull,dirt can be tricky,stay safe bro.
I love watching this, I've always done off road riding, and never touched a supersport, so cyclecruzas reaction to off roading is the exact same as my reaction to watching supersports racing! But off roading is just the best feeling ever, I wouldn't change it for the world!
Man I love your channel and your energy. I’m purchasing my first ever motorcycle this week. Either a Honda CRF 230 or a Yamaha ttr230. I hope I have as much fun as you my brother!
Congrats! I have a 14 WR also and yesterday I got a recall letter from Yamaha for a electrical problem [stator overheating]. Also look into a rear rack [Thumper talk] and a Roto-Pack [lockable]. Have fun.
My 2015 WR250R is running strong. I'm in love with her I'll never get a sports bike. She just turned 4000 miles yesterday and I thought I would give my review on it since I bought the bike after seeing that video about 8 months ago. At first I hated the seat but I don't know if the fabric got soft with use or my ass got accustomed to it now I don't mind the seat at all. Plenty of engine power, very predictable clutch, handles better than my friend's sports bike. Before my first oil change, the tranny was clunky but now works smoothly. The only thing I really hate is the small fuel tank since I use it for daily commuting but I fill-up before every ride. I don't want to purchase a bigger fuel tank, I want to keep the bike OEM-looking. Very good purchase, got a 1500$ deal on it, paid 6500$ + sales tax. Costs me next to nothing to plate and insure (10 years of driving, no tickets, no accidents)
Nice choice of bike, I went to Boulder, CO in June and did 200 miles in the mountains on a rented Dr650SE with my buddy on his WR250R. You absolutely have to hit the dirt trails out there when you go, one of the best times of my life. It was my first time on a dual sport as well coming from my CBR600RR. I did tip over once doing a low speed u-turn on a hill but no harm done. The DR650 was pretty heavy compared to the WR250R so it took some getting used to
ughmas best part about them is they just go anywhere you want. Over big rocks through mud, through the canyon twisties. So much freedom. I'm looking to add one to my garage soon myself
ughmas Nice! I used to live in colorado and used to 4x4 in a pathfinder out there. Going to my old stomping grounds. Yeah the lighter weight on the Wr250r is nice, this bike is awesome off-road.
Hell yeah brother! The best video I've seen all week! It looks like you had a blast. Congratulations on a great choice. Looking forward to more CycleCruza adventures! By the way, if you get out to the Denver area, look me up kid. I'd be happy to show you around! Stay safe brother.
glad i bought mine too. put Zeta handguards on it, and a flatland skid plate. only thing else is maybe color fairings but thats material. just love riding it around Cincy
I rode dirt for quite a long time before the road. Once you hit the trails (ruts) if you haven't already, the idea of, "when in doubt throttle out" will become even more apparent.
Nice bike. Great to go camping with and just all round fun. Congrats.Also I will add that once you get used to riding it, you will outgrow it and want something a little bigger and more powerful. Great one to start out on. Good choice.
I'm 14 and I'm coming from a crf150r and I'm planning on getting a job and working for a long ass time and buying one of these and I plan on possibly sumoing it when I get my liscnce
The only draw back is the small fuel tank. Might be able to find an after-market tank that is larger. You also might be surprised how comfortable enduros are in the rain. The large, widely spaced, tire lugs shed water well. Giving you a feeling of confidence. Try to spin the rear tire on the wet road. My DRZ400S would spin the tire about 6" before the front tire would come up. I actually enjoyed riding in the rain. Have fun, my brother. More videos, please. Peace.
If you forget to turn off your signals, tip for you; leave you thumb on the signal until you turn them off, like pushing or pulling the lever so if you find yourself down the road with your thumb in a weird place when you go for the clutch then you know they're still on :)
Love seeing a sportbike rider get so excited getting some very mild dirt action. Wondering how long it will take to get you fully converted over to the dirt side.
Lol, love your reaction to the hooliganism of a dual sport and the freedom you have on it. I totally see you going really far with the off road stuff. You're hooked.
I'm super pumped for you bro! When you find time can you comment or do a video on your new gear for this bike, or gear you plan on getting? I'm looking at this same exact bike, but I'm only 5.9 so I'm worried I will be tip toeing it. It looks like this bike is not high maintenance at all, just oil changes and valve clearance check at 26k and they take a beating very well.
Coe Moto For Off-road, 250 all day! There are a lot of reviews on youtube that say the 450 doesn't make a better dual sport. Do your research, the extra power on the 450 is not really all that useable.
CycleCruza I appreciate you telling me. I think for the most part I'll use it as my daily on/off road, because quite frankly I get bored on my harley. Wheelies, off road, just hooligan stuff is what I'm into, just need the right bike for it. Do you know what it takes to put supermoto tires on?
Coe Moto Find a wr250x supermoto from the factory. Or you can just throw the wheels on the wr250r from the wr250x. Or there are lots of options out there for supermoto wheels. You might need to trim the plastic on the fork or reroute the brake cable but its nothing major at all. You will need to change the gearing but there are countless sites out there for what the ideal gearing is for them in supermoto form.
+Coe Moto Do not go with a 250 I have raced motocross my entire life and a 450 is so much better, the extra power off road is very usable especially for climbing hills and tough terrain. The low end torque of a 450 will make you jizz you pants. I'm serious dude I've had a yz250 go with the 450 for sure.
9 ปีที่แล้ว +1
Coe Moto The 450 is probably a handful for a beginner, and is really more off road focused, plus needs much more servicing. Don't be scared of carbs, the DRZ carbs are super fine, and there's more power to be had out of the DRZ by rejetting them when you upgrade the exhaust!
Nice review CC. I have the nice compromise in a 2014 Honda, C B... five hundred...F. 16 to 17 tooth front sprocket. Penske rear shock. Like you say, you can rev a small motor, not that a 500 is small, but its not a 1K, and that's the point. I can USE the motor legally. I like the WR too. I just can't do those seats. Gotta be a custom seat.
wr250r is a great bike i love mine too i have a 2014 as well and just fyi yamaha did a recal on the stator eventually they can go out so you can wait for it to go out or you can just go check and see if its an effected model and have it replaced for free. idk if u watch accidental Broadcast he rides the same bike and his went out i think around 40k miles...
+Chris Ewing When I bought mine the dealer said they just performed the latest recall which was the stator recall. So it's all good, Thanks for making note of that tho.
Sweet I always wanted one but ended up getting a KLX250s due to finances, now i need the 350 big bore kit! lol I'm motovlogging now thanks for the inspiration! Welcome to dualsporting brother! Next get a jeep wrangler lol
Be careful of enclosing a gas can in a sealed plastic bag. You may want to look into this. I think those cans are vented and you will build up fumes in an enclosed area, that will get hot in the summer. You may want to go w/o the platic bag, or put your other stuff in the bag, and leave the can in the tail pack by itself. Not sure, but worth looking into for safety reasons.
Watch out bro some states especially here in Pa you can't run less than a 500 on major highways,and a passing tractor trailer or 2 could throw you into the guard rail making for a really messed up day,be safe.
+CycleCruza For the first month I rode mine I had people tailgate me everywhere I went. I was thinking wtf is your problem then I found out the speedo is off, made more sense then.
ive been looking at getting either a xt250 or the wr250r and i gotta say im defiantly look to go with the wr250r since it does get better top speed than the xt250 so you can still go on the highway, and gotta love how the wr250r is liquid cooled instead of the air cooled xt250, heard there have been a few problems with them overheating from trying to go highway speeds and having them at high revs for long periods of time
Don't buy an expensive aftermarket seat for it. go down to your local upholstery shop and talk to the owner. You can get an awesome swat that will most literally save your ass for less than a hundred dollars. I know two people that have done that with your bike here in Richmond VA at two different shops.
Hey cyclecruza, been watching some dualsport videos and i got myself a 2003 drz400s payed 2000$ its got 6500 miles on it, its so fun that i dont even ride my sportbike anymore thinking about selling it. I always had dirtbikes and i found what a really love is just driving anywhere i want to and i lightweight bike. And also i like the fact that i cant go 120mph on it , its just so fun gettin in the mud and the woods or jist exploring some dirt roads or riding to a mountain and climbing it up. And also so cheap on gas and parts hahaha
@cyclecruza look into the desert take, comes clear so you can see your fuel and adds a gallon or two, I used that on my tax 450 and ride all day in the desert.
wtf. cruising at 75 on a 250?! does the 6th gear really make a huge difference??? my drz400e with 14/38 gearing feels like its going to explode after 65 in 5th... I should have bought a wr250 instead..
Glad to see you like it. The KTM would have been awesome, but I can understand the added costs and dealer network... Can't go wrong with almost any new bike though, Looks fun! Miss the metro parks
Sarah Dell Yeah the KTM would have been a blast BUT no way do I want to deal with weak KTM dealer support. However, in the future if they increase dealer support I might be inclined to get one. One nice thing this bike has over the KTM is being 25 lbs lighter in weight, not to mention a ton of aftermarket support and dealers everywhere. My local yamaha dealer is even closer than my honda dealer, just 10 minutes from my house and a much better dealer as well.
I understand the concern over dealer networks, I've had Aprilia, Ducati, and Triumphs for years. Luckily I'm in a area where those dealers are everywhere but if you're going to be traveling a bunch it's a valid concern. The enthusiasm is contagious, I might go look at one of these today as a commuter/hooligan machine. I would miss having power on tap, but ringing a small bike out is always a blast.
Sarah Dell When you get on dirt you won't use a lot of power anyways and this bike loves off-road. The suspension is butter on this bike, handles awesome. Also, this bike will wheelie easy, it's a fun little bike.
Is "left over" a negative or not? Ive read this a lot when online shopping for bikes. Why are left overs cheaper? They're just want to get ride of last years models????
Looks like fun man! Makes me want to get a dual sport. Ha That spot you went to mess around, I always ride past it and wonder what has back there. Looks like a nice wheelie spot.
I see a future "Hooligan CycleCrusa" in the works. No better way to escape the popo than to cut out through the woods. Looking forward to seeing some of those videos.

CycleCruza My older brother has cbr1000 2005 and a dirtbike to! but his dirtbike is not streetlegal, he sometimes take it on street. In new York they will take the dirtbike away if its not streetlegal. I have a crf70 Honda, I want a crf150 or a cbr600.
CycleCruza I love the reaction when you go off road. These things definitely will give the giggles. I used to be a sport bike guy, until I rode a friends dual sport. The more I rode off road the more I disliked being on the street. I think age also has something to do with it. Once I got into my thirties I seemed to get passed the "LOOK AT ME!" mentality a lot of sport bike riders tend to have. There is only one very big negative I have discovered with a dual sport. You are very much more likely to break very expensive federal laws. On the positive side I have yet to get a speeding ticket on a dual sport. As for the Yamaha WR250R it is a great new bike. While maybe a little tall if you are a short beginner. I believe the seat is in the 37inch range. If you have the money to throw down go for it. I personally found a 2006 DRZ 400 with 700 miles on it for $3000 on craiglist. All the necessary upgrades had already been done. I'll be buying my first new bike next spring. I'm loving the Husky looks just not the price.
+Livnglrg The only reason I skipped the DRZ is because of the carburetor, carbs suck. Imo, all motorcycle should fuel injected by now, this is 2015 for goodness sakes! lol
CycleCruza I would of skipped the DRZ also if I had the money to throw down on the Yamaha. They are to new of bikes to find good used ones for a deal. Technology is starting to catch up with dual sports as the popularity grows.

yo from like 11:35 to15:10 i was LMFBO with you bro! Dual sports are where it's at!.
I miss my WR250R. I loved it but had to sell it for financial reasons. It was kinda crappy for trying to get to the far away trails but once you were on the trails it was awesome. That thing would climb just about any hill I tried to tackle with it.
Must feel really good in the nuts to be in a motorcycle at 80mph in the highway with your fly down in a hot day. You're as happy as a lil kid with a new toy. I'm happy for you CC
That's how I was when I got my CRF. I hadn't ridden a dirt bike in 20 years and I couldn't believe I waited so long to get a dual sport. I felt like a little kid. They are fun to ride on the street but off road is where the fun really begins! I can't wait for you to find some good trails or a gravel pit. You will have a blast!!! Congrats on the new bike!
WOOOO!!! SHIT!!!!!! HAHAHAAA THIS BIKE IS-FUCK!!! DAMNNN MAN!! WOOO!! THIS BIKE IS- WOOOOO!!! HAHAAA
moradierethamster hmm
The first mods you get should be protection type mods like a skid plate, radiator guards, hand guards etc... When getting a Dual sport/dirt bike the question isn't "if I'm going to drop it" but "how many times am I going to drop it" lol
yes totally agree
raymon760 Exactly. Every other Time I go Out to the Trails I drop mine once or twice. If it dosent hit the ground. Your not dual sporting right....
Your enthusiasm makes me so happy, can't wait till I can get my hands on a real motorcycle
It's cool to see you on the DS for the first time as you discover how much fun it is to get off pavement and go wherever you want. The upright posture suits that style of riding and the suspension just soaks up all the bumps. I went from a cruiser to a KLR and don't ever see myself going back. Now go find yourself some dirt/gravel roads out in the country and see what you've been missing.
Mike Mullis Rocky mountains next week!
Welcome to the wonderful world of dual sport riding. Go anywhere, anytime. No road or trail or obstacle is off limits. Now you know what we have all been saying man. You will ride that way more than you think you will. Have a blast man!
+Evil Droid I knw all along and even wanted this as a first bike but figured there were no trails around here, however, I can make my own trails. lol Also, I have the bug out van to go to any trails in the country.
CycleCruza You know it dude! Time to be a real hooligan!
Welcome to the Dual Sport family... Now you understand!!!
If you're concerned about your gas tank size you should check out IMS, they make both 3 and 4.7 gallon tanks for the wr250r. Also a couple things that might be worth investing in, 1 1/8" bars and a set of handguards. The Bars won't bend in a low speed off-road crash like the stock ones and they'll also allow you to mount a gps/phone in the middle of your bars. The handguards will again prevent your levers braking in a off-road crash and are necessary if you wan't to ride through overgrown areas without having you brake lever pushed by a tree/bush.
Draft_ Yeah I will get some hand-guards but don't have time now because I'm getting prepared to leave. I won't be doing any hairy trails, just some dirt roads in the mountains. I may screw around though. lol
CycleCruza Congratulations on the bike anyway, it looks like you're gonna have some serious fun with it!
Was really nice watching this man!
Felt almost being there with you.
That's why we ride.
Honest, pure reaction dude, really nice!
I want to go ride right now!!! :D
Man, I'm glad you got that bike. You make me want to get a dual sport now. Hahaha
nice man! I felt the same way when I first rode my dual-sport (and still feel that way every time)..just so much fun to ride everything and go everywhere..
EXCELLENT!!!!! I was browsing "250 cc dual purpose bikes" and saw a lot of technical reviews, comparisons between similar models, statistics, etc. And then I stumbled upon your review. Your unbridled enthusiasm and passion about this bike and riding had me hooked. I loved every minute of your commentary on this ride. I have owned 3 bikes in my life: a Suzuki 50 cc Gamma as a 16 year old kid, a Kawasaki 650 cc Zephyr as a student and a Suzuki 1100 V-Twin Cruiser in my early 40's (as a Sunday breakfast run ride). Damn you!!! I am buying this tomorrow!!!! Thank you for re-lighting my fire.
+Wynand Koegelenberg Awesome! Thanks for your comment. Best of luck to you!
Jesus, talk about a kid at Christmas!
Owen Wales That's how I felt. lol
Wow man. After my last comment and your response on your other vid, I really didn't think you'd go for the wr! Mine is also a new 2014. I think you made a great choice, I've been having a ton of fun on mine all summer. Hope you have as much fun as I'm having. Great vids cycle! Keep up the good work.
Heavy weighted bar ends will make a world of difference with the vibrations.
I have watched 90% of your videos and you have never been so happy man ! Great choice of bike, it really makes you happy :D
Georgi Kiriakov Most fun I've had so far. Speeding and twisties are fun BUT off-road is more fun and void of cagers. However, trees take the place of cagers off-road. lol
Yeah,atleast u don't have to deal with the thoughts that everybody around is trying to run you over lol.
Beautiful cycle Cruza... From a Chinese scooter to Cbr 250 and the. to your 600 double R .... Then your fire blade and now an Enduro.... !!?? You sir are truly the cycle CruzA King
I am old school dirt. 2 stroke raging in the desert. Never rode a street bike. I felt safer off road and we were crazy. Kinda the opposite of you. Loved seeing you have some fun and I know much more is to come. Cheers.
I have a 2017 and my speedometer is off too. Somewhere around 5 mph off so Yamaha hasn't fixed that problem if you're wondering.
I do have a problem with crosswinds. It can get sketchy at higher speeds when the wind is coming from the side. Especially a big wind gust. I won't ride on the interstate anymore because of that fact.
Other than those two things I mentioned, the WR250R is a very nice bike. I have been hitting the trails and going up stuff I never thought I could on this little bike. This bike definitely impresses me!
best review ever . Glad to see someone enjoy themselves. your riding pretty good for never riding a dual before.
wow my first dirt bike was a new amf harley davidson sx-175 about 1976 800 bucks out the door,it was street and dirt legal and you bring back memories bro.now i'm 60 and a cruiser I have a 2006 suzuki boulevard m50,it's not a screamer but it's stock and makes me happy for a cruiser.Anyway be carefull,dirt can be tricky,stay safe bro.
You were having the time of your life, dude. Looks like a blast! Congratulations on the new bike.
I love watching this, I've always done off road riding, and never touched a supersport, so cyclecruzas reaction to off roading is the exact same as my reaction to watching supersports racing! But off roading is just the best feeling ever, I wouldn't change it for the world!
Man I love your channel and your energy. I’m purchasing my first ever motorcycle this week. Either a Honda CRF 230 or a Yamaha ttr230. I hope I have as much fun as you my brother!
Congrats! I have a 14 WR also and yesterday I got a recall letter from Yamaha for a electrical problem [stator overheating]. Also look into a rear rack [Thumper talk] and a Roto-Pack [lockable]. Have fun.
My 2015 WR250R is running strong. I'm in love with her I'll never get a sports bike. She just turned 4000 miles yesterday and I thought I would give my review on it since I bought the bike after seeing that video about 8 months ago. At first I hated the seat but I don't know if the fabric got soft with use or my ass got accustomed to it now I don't mind the seat at all. Plenty of engine power, very predictable clutch, handles better than my friend's sports bike. Before my first oil change, the tranny was clunky but now works smoothly. The only thing I really hate is the small fuel tank since I use it for daily commuting but I fill-up before every ride. I don't want to purchase a bigger fuel tank, I want to keep the bike OEM-looking. Very good purchase, got a 1500$ deal on it, paid 6500$ + sales tax. Costs me next to nothing to plate and insure (10 years of driving, no tickets, no accidents)
Glad you got a dual sport it's fun to see you off-road. I'm getting one in the spring or next summer when I build a home in the woods.
Nice choice of bike, I went to Boulder, CO in June and did 200 miles in the mountains on a rented Dr650SE with my buddy on his WR250R. You absolutely have to hit the dirt trails out there when you go, one of the best times of my life. It was my first time on a dual sport as well coming from my CBR600RR. I did tip over once doing a low speed u-turn on a hill but no harm done. The DR650 was pretty heavy compared to the WR250R so it took some getting used to
ughmas best part about them is they just go anywhere you want. Over big rocks through mud, through the canyon twisties. So much freedom. I'm looking to add one to my garage soon myself
ughmas Nice! I used to live in colorado and used to 4x4 in a pathfinder out there. Going to my old stomping grounds. Yeah the lighter weight on the Wr250r is nice, this bike is awesome off-road.
Hell yeah brother! The best video I've seen all week! It looks like you had a blast. Congratulations on a great choice. Looking forward to more CycleCruza adventures!
By the way, if you get out to the Denver area, look me up kid. I'd be happy to show you around! Stay safe brother.
glad i bought mine too. put Zeta handguards on it, and a flatland skid plate. only thing else is maybe color fairings but thats material. just love riding it around Cincy
grats on the new pick-up! looks bad ass, fits the bug out van perfectly.
Can't wait to see a video of your trip to the Rocky Mountains. Congrats on the new purchase!
Glad you like it. These light bikes are a lot of fun.
Congrats on the new addition, seems like your enjoying it
looks like your having lots of fun !! that's what dual/am bikes are all about ... so fun !!
Your having too much fun there CC. Congrats on the new bike. It looks great!
Yeah fuck an R3, I'm getting a WR250R.
Agreed fuck the small sport bikes just buy a dual sport or supermoto
Yup can't take an R3 offroad. It may be more comfortable and a bit faster, but it's not like I'm gonna be riding more than an hour or two at a time.
Enduro/Supermoto is the bikes that will you give much more fun then anything else ! Keep riding and having fun....
You should add a tooth to the front sprocket to give it better gearing for road use
+DuskRider I'd go down a tooth in the front if he is doing more on the dirt right?
DuskRider Hey! We're all waiting in your thread on OurMoto about the Jax meetup. We're excited! MotoMiyagi InvisieMoto
+kanyedian im about to edit the video now. Sorry for taking so long getting it planned.
DuskRider No worries! That's great :D We just got two new buddies in Tampa area that are down to come also.
I rode dirt for quite a long time before the road. Once you hit the trails (ruts) if you haven't already, the idea of, "when in doubt throttle out" will become even more apparent.
Glad you picked a dual sport up CC! Im a new rider I just picked up a CRF230 Supermoto and after riding once I already fell in love haha...
CycleCruza you need to get a 450 Flat Tracker, and go hit the the Flat Tracks out and get sideways through the turns with your steel shoe.
Nice bike. Great to go camping with and just all round fun. Congrats.Also I will add that once you get used to riding it, you will outgrow it and want something a little bigger and more powerful. Great one to start out on. Good choice.
I'm 14 and I'm coming from a crf150r and I'm planning on getting a job and working for a long ass time and buying one of these and I plan on possibly sumoing it when I get my liscnce
Damn, you're having ton of fun on it. Something tells me that thing is going to get you in trouble. Already trespassing. Anyways, have a blast man!
That's bike looks like it causes a lot of smile, congrats man.
I am glad that you are enjoying the dirt bike, congratulations.
One more thing if you want to cut your shifting time in half don't use the clutch when up shifting make sure to let off the gas when doing that though
The only draw back is the small fuel tank. Might be able to find an after-market tank that is larger. You also might be surprised how comfortable enduros are in the rain. The large, widely spaced, tire lugs shed water well. Giving you a feeling of confidence. Try to spin the rear tire on the wet road. My DRZ400S would spin the tire about 6" before the front tire would come up. I actually enjoyed riding in the rain.
Have fun, my brother. More videos, please. Peace.
Great to hear the excitement of your new bike.
If you forget to turn off your signals, tip for you; leave you thumb on the signal until you turn them off, like pushing or pulling the lever so if you find yourself down the road with your thumb in a weird place when you go for the clutch then you know they're still on :)
exonusgod Tried that but still do it anyways. lol
Good review. I have been considering a 250 but not sure if I can handle it yet. I'm a noob so this was very informative for me.
Have really enjoyed this and the bug out van series of videos fella.
Love seeing a sportbike rider get so excited getting some very mild dirt action. Wondering how long it will take to get you fully converted over to the dirt side.
Congratulations man nice ride. since watching your vlogs I have decided to dual sport tires on my fz 09
Lmao omg how is that going!? Hahahahahaha
Will you make a tutorial on how to wheelie once you start doing them?
I like how u said you gonna wait to do wheelies but your at top gear and full throttle.
Lol, love your reaction to the hooliganism of a dual sport and the freedom you have on it. I totally see you going really far with the off road stuff. You're hooked.
+Mal Reynolds I was thinking the same thing.
looking good bro the wr 250 is a good starter bike for off roading for sure hope you enjoy it
I'm super pumped for you bro! When you find time can you comment or do a video on your new gear for this bike, or gear you plan on getting? I'm looking at this same exact bike, but I'm only 5.9 so I'm worried I will be tip toeing it. It looks like this bike is not high maintenance at all, just oil changes and valve clearance check at 26k and they take a beating very well.
your fly is down...
I saw it too lol
+silvermanrol dang it - I missed that lol
cyclecruza requires a steady breeze around the boys.
+Jim Bonney LOL
For ventilation
I'm 6'3 225lbs, really loving this bike. Would I regret buying it?
CycleCruza You have me convinced not to get a drz400sm. I want that fuel injection, but do I go with a 250 or 450 is the real question.
Coe Moto For Off-road, 250 all day! There are a lot of reviews on youtube that say the 450 doesn't make a better dual sport. Do your research, the extra power on the 450 is not really all that useable.
CycleCruza I appreciate you telling me. I think for the most part I'll use it as my daily on/off road, because quite frankly I get bored on my harley. Wheelies, off road, just hooligan stuff is what I'm into, just need the right bike for it. Do you know what it takes to put supermoto tires on?
Coe Moto Find a wr250x supermoto from the factory. Or you can just throw the wheels on the wr250r from the wr250x. Or there are lots of options out there for supermoto wheels. You might need to trim the plastic on the fork or reroute the brake cable but its nothing major at all. You will need to change the gearing but there are countless sites out there for what the ideal gearing is for them in supermoto form.
+Coe Moto
Do not go with a 250 I have raced motocross my entire life and a 450 is so much better, the extra power off road is very usable especially for climbing hills and tough terrain. The low end torque of a 450 will make you jizz you pants. I'm serious dude I've had a yz250 go with the 450 for sure.
Coe Moto The 450 is probably a handful for a beginner, and is really more off road focused, plus needs much more servicing. Don't be scared of carbs, the DRZ carbs are super fine, and there's more power to be had out of the DRZ by rejetting them when you upgrade the exhaust!
first thing you should do is get bark busters then a aftermarket exhaust
Glad you're enjoying your purchase. Work hard play hard congrats bro
self canceling turn signals would be wundermus!
Nice review CC. I have the nice compromise in a 2014 Honda, C B... five hundred...F. 16 to 17 tooth front sprocket. Penske rear shock. Like you say, you can rev a small motor, not that a 500 is small, but its not a 1K, and that's the point. I can USE the motor legally. I like the WR too. I just can't do those seats. Gotta be a custom seat.
wr250r is a great bike i love mine too i have a 2014 as well and just fyi yamaha did a recal on the stator eventually they can go out so you can wait for it to go out or you can just go check and see if its an effected model and have it replaced for free. idk if u watch accidental Broadcast he rides the same bike and his went out i think around 40k miles...
+Chris Ewing When I bought mine the dealer said they just performed the latest recall which was the stator recall. So it's all good, Thanks for making note of that tho.
Sweet I always wanted one but ended up getting a KLX250s due to finances, now i need the 350 big bore kit! lol I'm motovlogging now thanks for the inspiration! Welcome to dualsporting brother! Next get a jeep wrangler lol
Be careful of enclosing a gas can in a sealed plastic bag. You may want to look into this. I think those cans are vented and you will build up fumes in an enclosed area, that will get hot in the summer. You may want to go w/o the platic bag, or put your other stuff in the bag, and leave the can in the tail pack by itself. Not sure, but worth looking into for safety reasons.
+mgelliott1 It's to catch any leaks. I can always not completely seal the bag.
Looks like happiest guy in the world men!! Love your videos, so daam motivation
I absolutely loved the enthusiasm, like a fat kid in a candy shop baby. Stoked for your up and coming adventures.
WaYsTiiD lol
Watch out bro some states especially here in Pa you can't run less than a 500 on major highways,and a passing tractor trailer or 2 could throw you into the guard rail making for a really messed up day,be safe.
The speedo is of by 10-12% on these bikes. Glad your enjoying the WR, I have a 2014 as well. Check out 12 o'clock labs for a fix.
+dreep2684 Dang, I knew this gauge was off because it never felt like the speed it said.
+CycleCruza For the first month I rode mine I had people tailgate me everywhere I went. I was thinking wtf is your problem then I found out the speedo is off, made more sense then.
ive been looking at getting either a xt250 or the wr250r and i gotta say im defiantly look to go with the wr250r since it does get better top speed than the xt250 so you can still go on the highway, and gotta love how the wr250r is liquid cooled instead of the air cooled xt250, heard there have been a few problems with them overheating from trying to go highway speeds and having them at high revs for long periods of time
+Nick DeLambo Get the wr250r!

I still get the same feeling when I pull out the Honda xl350 every year 🍻
Don't buy an expensive aftermarket seat for it. go down to your local upholstery shop and talk to the owner. You can get an awesome swat that will most literally save your ass for less than a hundred dollars. I know two people that have done that with your bike here in Richmond VA at two different shops.
Just get a gallon rotopax it mounts on there and you don't have to mess with the tail bag and all that. But it might cost more it's about $80-90
Dalton Duckett Really don't want to drill holes in the tail for the rack though....
Also spedo is way off [GPS]. Indicates about 5 mph high [29.5 = 25] and gets higher the faster you go [62 = 55] with stock tires.
+Frank Bock Yeah I figured that, thanks!
Hey cyclecruza, been watching some dualsport videos and i got myself a 2003 drz400s payed 2000$ its got 6500 miles on it, its so fun that i dont even ride my sportbike anymore thinking about selling it. I always had dirtbikes and i found what a really love is just driving anywhere i want to and i lightweight bike. And also i like the fact that i cant go 120mph on it , its just so fun gettin in the mud and the woods or jist exploring some dirt roads or riding to a mountain and climbing it up. And also so cheap on gas and parts hahaha
did you say soft break in???? man i think you couldnt resist reving. congratulation you got a really nice bike
CycleCruza You need to sit up closer on your tank and grip the radiator shrouds with your legs.
@cyclecruza look into the desert take, comes clear so you can see your fuel and adds a gallon or two, I used that on my tax 450 and ride all day in the desert.
the vibration is probably because of the Nobies. Get some street tires wont be an issue but probably not worth it
wtf. cruising at 75 on a 250?! does the 6th gear really make a huge difference??? my drz400e with 14/38 gearing feels like its going to explode after 65 in 5th... I should have bought a wr250 instead..
Glad to see you like it. The KTM would have been awesome, but I can understand the added costs and dealer network... Can't go wrong with almost any new bike though, Looks fun! Miss the metro parks
Sarah Dell Yeah the KTM would have been a blast BUT no way do I want to deal with weak KTM dealer support. However, in the future if they increase dealer support I might be inclined to get one. One nice thing this bike has over the KTM is being 25 lbs lighter in weight, not to mention a ton of aftermarket support and dealers everywhere. My local yamaha dealer is even closer than my honda dealer, just 10 minutes from my house and a much better dealer as well.
I understand the concern over dealer networks, I've had Aprilia, Ducati, and Triumphs for years. Luckily I'm in a area where those dealers are everywhere but if you're going to be traveling a bunch it's a valid concern. The enthusiasm is contagious, I might go look at one of these today as a commuter/hooligan machine. I would miss having power on tap, but ringing a small bike out is always a blast.
Sarah Dell When you get on dirt you won't use a lot of power anyways and this bike loves off-road. The suspension is butter on this bike, handles awesome. Also, this bike will wheelie easy, it's a fun little bike.
Is "left over" a negative or not? Ive read this a lot when online shopping for bikes. Why are left overs cheaper? They're just want to get ride of last years models????
Looks like fun man! Makes me want to get a dual sport. Ha That spot you went to mess around, I always ride past it and wonder what has back there. Looks like a nice wheelie spot.
***** It's the old airplane look out. When I was a kid we used to park there to watch the planes take off and land at the airport.
shit dude! you had me cracking up toward the end...lol. a whole new world has opened up to you. Awesome dude!
I see a future "Hooligan CycleCrusa" in the works. No better way to escape the popo than to cut out through the woods. Looking forward to seeing some of those videos.
hey cyclecruza
Just bought the 2015 WR 250 fucking R

KulakxFilms I have the 2015 and the Bike is awesome. I put on a 2 Bros Tarmac Exhaust and it sounds great. You will love the Bike.
CycleCruza My older brother has cbr1000 2005 and a dirtbike to! but his dirtbike is not streetlegal, he sometimes take it on street. In new York they will take the dirtbike away if its not streetlegal. I have a crf70 Honda, I want a crf150 or a cbr600.
CycleCruza you should get your seat foam customized with memory a foam layer
I'm going to buy a 2012 Wr250r with 600 miles on it for 5500 out the door. Think this is a good deal?
+jammarules sounds good as long as the bike is ok.
Lovin it!!! Nice to see it can handle highway-duties!!!
CycleCruza I love the reaction when you go off road. These things definitely will give the giggles.
I used to be a sport bike guy, until I rode a friends dual sport. The more I rode off road the more I disliked being on the street. I think age also has something to do with it. Once I got into my thirties I seemed to get passed the "LOOK AT ME!" mentality a lot of sport bike riders tend to have. There is only one very big negative I have discovered with a dual sport. You are very much more likely to break very expensive federal laws. On the positive side I have yet to get a speeding ticket on a dual sport.
As for the Yamaha WR250R it is a great new bike. While maybe a little tall if you are a short beginner. I believe the seat is in the 37inch range. If you have the money to throw down go for it. I personally found a 2006 DRZ 400 with 700 miles on it for $3000 on craiglist. All the necessary upgrades had already been done. I'll be buying my first new bike next spring. I'm loving the Husky looks just not the price.
+Livnglrg The only reason I skipped the DRZ is because of the carburetor, carbs suck. Imo, all motorcycle should fuel injected by now, this is 2015 for goodness sakes! lol
CycleCruza I would of skipped the DRZ also if I had the money to throw down on the Yamaha. They are to new of bikes to find good used ones for a deal. Technology is starting to catch up with dual sports as the popularity grows.
