Default WR200 Does anybody know anything about a Yamaha WR200.

Hi, I saw a 1993 Yamaha WR200 for sale and I don't know much about the bike. If anybody has one I would love to here how you like it. I wonder how it compares to a KDX200 power wise and is it reliable? It is only $600 and he is willing to go down. How fast are these compaired to a 125. I just sold my 1991 Suzuki RM125. It wasn't the best woods bike. The WR200 has a light but I want to know how the gearing and power is out on the trail. I want something that has good power down low for crawling through the woods and up hills but has a good amount off power for when the trail opens up. I hated the long first gear on th RM125 because I had to abuse the clutch all the time. I just need some input.

Thanks,
Chris

I own a 1992 yamaha wr 200 it is a nice trail/woods bike. It will feel like a 125 with a bit more power in the low range. The wr stands for wide ratio gearbox. I use mine to ride in the moutains and desert area.
