Don’t let all the “internet hype” get to you, it was still a great bike. In fact, some say it had the best 450cc from 2003-2005. The second generation YZ450F got even better (for the most part) in 2006 with the all-new aluminum frame.
Which is better the YZ450FX or the WR 450F?
As the terrain got slower, the FX became slightly less favorable compared to the WR.

If plans are to hit big jumps or race at high speeds (especially desert racing), then the FX is the more adept bike.

Is the Whibley WR the same as the YZ?

Other than that, it sure looks like a YZ, even has the 09 swingarm!Why would they not just race the YZ?
