[QUOTE="MY-BLUE-BEAST, post: 71895, member: 388"] Got to reading up on the 2012 WR, I seriously doubt that I would like it. Its basically a YZ with a headlight, and from the looks and sounds of it its not made for off road like the 2003-08 WRs were. Should have guessed it when they started leaning away in 2009 and 2010. They make you think that its designed for off-road, but with a YZ frame, YZ suspension, YZ fuel, air and oil system, a YZ sized gas tank, and the list just keeps going, there is nothing left that is WR except for the 18 inch rear wheel and the wide pegs. And the fact that it is green sticker and from the sounds of it cant be modified aside from aftermarket... WHAT THE HELL?!?!:rant:The fuel injection sounds like a plus, but we shall see. The YZ has its place and it should stay there, leave the WR to the off-roaders and design it with its own unique features. Ill test ride it, and put it through its off-road paces, but I dont think it will have the ability my 2004 does, or any of your guy's early year WRs have. [/QUOTE]
