Millhouse · June 22, 2015, 04:14:34 PM

picked up a Yamahaaaaaaargh WR450F saturday for some green lane BRAAAAAAPing...

opinions and banter accepted, colour/engine size/model choice comments ignored....

gingerly tested yesterday to find that it's a bit of a handful and lots of fun!

looks nice that millhouse whats the servicing like on them? I quite fancy a "casual" offroader

Millhouse · June 22, 2015, 04:18:35 PM

servicing?

kicking the tyres and changing the engine every so often I'd guess.... (better check i spose!!)

Servicing, put it this way - you should have changed the oil/filter 3 times already on Sunday.

Should have bought a KTM

KTM??!!!

Jeeesus, that would've needed 3 engine rebuilds, a new swingarm and a fork rebuild just getting to where we started!!

Having had a go on the Yam up and down an industrial estate, I can safely say it is just a little bit lairy

Maybe i'm getting old, but i'm happy to admit it'd be too lairy for me. I'm quite content with half the power!
