My brother has an '02 WR250, and that bike has been totally bulletproof, same lower end! We put a Keihin carb on it, better linkage seals, revalved and sprung suspension, Scotts damper, and its great. It is tall, has a very forward mounted kickstarter(old school converted motor) and the plastic is kind of brittle and seems to break easy, especially the wide shrouds that catch brush easy. Personally I like GGs better but I would go Husky over KTM any day. They are a bit stiff and edgy stock but work real well in the crap when valved correctly. I heard the 300s were animals!
