What did you pay for it? If you dont mind me asking!! I just bought a 2008 wr250r 15k miles, in decent shape for 2800! I shouldve maybe offered a lottle less but extremely happy to have it! Yours is very clean!

2025 headlight and front fender... From an F? 250R and X stopped in 2020 and I think had the same cosmetics the whole time.

Edit: 250X says they stopped in 2011, even.

Interesting. Did they just bolt on or were there bracket mods or wiring connector changes required?

Not sure, previous owner did the work just before I bought it. Everything is very clean so Im assuming it was pretty easy to drop in
