Down this side of the planet most Yamaha dealers have been selling WR converted yz's by fitting a WR gearbox,weighted flywheel long range tank, 18" wheel and suspension mods. Maybe the sales figures have made it back to Japan
I tested one before getting my GG and it was nice but still a motocross bike at heart. Even with the weighted flywheel it still tended to rev up too quickly and lose traction- it sounds like this will be closer to a roots up enduro bike than a converted mx bike
