    Not quite... The WR250F is the straight trail bike. The X is supermoto, and the R is the dual-purpose. In the 450, they only make the F.

    In addition, the R and X models of the 250 are fuel injected with a 4 valve cylinder head, while the 250F has the 5 valve head and a 37mm FCR carb. there are some differences in the bottom end of the engines as well. The big difference between the R and the F is suspension, the R has about 10ish inches of travel, the F has about 14.

    Calling an illegal alien an "undocumented immigrant" is like calling a drug dealer an "undocumented pharmacist"

    True, but the R is also less maintenance intensive. That would be my choice, plus it's already titled, wasn't sure if the F is.

    Yeah, F is titled and plated! I love being able to ride anywhere!
