No.....keep the 06, its the best year made. And the Yamaha is blue, and everyone knows that green is faster.

No. No. No. The 07 is the best year, and only the ones that came down under.[8D]
Love the white headlight shroud.

Are you serious? Australia has had the KLX250 since it´s inception back in 1979. Oh and mine is an 06.
I think you are just fooling around though

Its just a toy, if you like the WR go get it. Life's to short for anything else. I like the WRs too but I dont have someone waving 4 large in my face as seed money.

I'm just not sure ifI would be making the right choice, where can I find ride reports on the WR. I love my Klx is the WR that much better? I just don't want to regret anything.

why not just get the WR and keep the KLX... so what if you have to take out a second mortgage on your house.[8D] heheh but seriously if your thinkin about selling it that would be a hard offer to turn down.

Ryan,
Consider your riding style and how the KLX fits. If, as you say, you love the KLX, then what would the Yamaha do for you that the KLX can't? You would have to add to the $4,000 to buy the WR and you would be buying tax and tag on yet another new bike. This process could go on forever, or as long as your bank and paycheck will support it. No one can tell you what's best for you. If you like the bike and it's easy to afford, why not keep it? If you don't, there's no better time to sell it. The KLX satisfies a lot of folks, me included now that I've done some serious modification, but I like a hard running machine. Many, probably most owners like the bike like it is. Hope that helps.
