All 2st 2010 2 Strokes?

I know this is premature but do you think the 2010 smokers
will be updated with new frame and chain on the other side?

Is the new wr 125 a proto type for next year?

Let hear your thoughts on it. And please some photoshop expert put a 250 motor in the new 125. I have a hard time with visualization.

I think there will be a completely new 250/300 for 2010. The '09 WR125 is the model for the larger displacement bikes in '10.
The 250/300 motor is very long in the tooth('91). Husky did the 260 cheater bike in '91 and then came out with the all new 360 in '92. It could be similar, that new bikes are on the way.
If you want to visualize it, look at '09 TC250 and imagine a 2 stroke top end and pipe on that motor. Blip Blip is our ace Photoshop guy. I'll put him right on it!

Come on Mr. Blip. Lets see the '10 smokers!

Mr. Blip created this for your viewing enjoyment, but posted it on TT....

Nice looking bike!

What kind of weight savingings do you think the 2010's wr250 will have with the new frame? I tried to find the weight of the 2008 wr 125 and compare it to the 2009 but could not find it. Any body know?

'09 WR125 is up in weight over the '08 according to the specs..... 222.7 to 211.6 lbs. This may be just being more honest about weights or may be dry to wet without fuel weight. I've seen listed weights on WR125's since the mid-nineties be from sub 200 lbs to the '09 weight. I can tell you this.... My '00 WR250 with all guards and equipment and a full stock 2.9 gal tank is 256 lbs and the '02 WR125, all the same is 232 lbs. These were on a certified scale. The '10 WR250 is mainly going to lose weight in the engine, the present one is large and solid.

When I saw the same thing about the weight, I just thought they were being more honest as I can't imagine the '09 WR 125 would have gained that much weight from one year to the next.
