Default 2010 EC250 4T Aftermarket Exhaust Compatibility

When I first saw that the new EC250 4T would have a Yamaha engine I was a little disappointed that it wasn't going to be a unique design but the more I think about it, the more I like the idea of the Yamaha engine.

We don't have a Gas Gas dealer anywhere nearby (<300 miles) but we do have several Yamaha dealers nearby to support, if needed. Then there is always the doubt that the first year design is fully developed. (I think it took KTM 4 years to produce 'good' low-end torque on its 250 4t?)

Anyway, I would like to know from Gas Gas, or someone in the know, if the aftermarket engine parts, like exhaust/exhaust headers, are fully interchangeable between the WR250 and the EC250? It would be huge plus for me to be able to tap into the aftermarket parts selection for the WR.

I've got the green light for a new bike, trying to decide now between a 250XC, EC300, and EC250 4T. Would love to go GG this time around. I just hope GG keeps the prices reasonable.
