    Has anyone tried to fit 1999 or older style plastic, tank, and seat to a 2000 or newer WR? I know the sub-frame and air box would need to be changed but what else?

    there have been threads on going newer, so probably the same reasoning just reversed
    so the question is,,,why??

    Why, lol. I know it sounds crazy, but I really like the look of the mid 90s era Husqvarna bikes. I was in High school from 1994 to 1998 and I remember reading about the WXE and WXC in dirt bike mags back then. I sometimes contemplate on the idea of converting my 2000 WR to look like a 99 or older. I also love the look of the 1987-1994 era Honda XR bikes. I had a 1987 XR200R when I was in school and I loved reading about Scott Summers and stuff on his XR600R so I guess it's a nostalgia thing for me...
