Because I fitted a large capacity tank I got it in Yellow and went for the Hurricane Hanna look, plus the bike was used for purpose and it looked 10 years old when it was 3 months old.
This was its first few times it was ever used.

Both WR's are rare. The 250Z was made for quite a number of years but it was only iirc France and maybe Australia that got the road legal ones as seen in blue / yellow. The 200 in both guises, the WR was sold here along with the USA etc. The DT-WR version seems to have been an Asia only market bike.
Both are rare but in my own personal opinion the 200 is the best blend of reliability, power, suspension and looks you can get with a road going trail bike. I'd make the 250 into a mental supermoto

It is a dt200wr yes running the 3xp cylinder and head and a tm30ss carb that I'm planning to drop into the dt125r

The 04 250 I had was nothing more than a 2004 YZ250 with a lighting coil and lights etc fitted France and Oz only for them in 2001 and 2004 I got mine from France, it did not have a wide ratio WR ! gearbox like the early ninety's WR250,s. Even still had the YZ250 decals on the rear fender, WR250Z decals where in the YZ spares package that comes with a new YZ.

@scrimsmustang can imagine that 525 was a handful, i have a 2001 cr500 motor in a 06 crf450 chassis and you cant keep the front down

@scrimsmustang lol you'd think they are a beast but in reality any 450 puts out more hp that said I'd love one
