In the UK all the '2012' model bikes come out around August (well, the KTMs do), so I presumed the current WR would be considered the 2012, and next year it will be the 2013?! Be nice to see it in the showrooms in actual time for the start of 2012 - maybe it will be at the Milan show this month? Jx ps. Ah, apologies - I see Yamaha UK have also updated their website with the new bike, so I guess it's availability is imminent - wey hey! |

The goss down under is January for the FI WR. That's very late, especially for a bike that has had a lot of Aussie input to get it Australian Design Regulation compliant (we can road register most enduro bikes here). Word is there are shedloads of '11 WR450fs still to be cleared. They have been discounting them heavily here, picked mine ('11) up for a song but nobody is expecting any deals one the new ones!

I just wanted to say that this thread has had over 226,000 views now - that is utterly HUGE and fantastic, thank you all!
It will certainly be a significant help in trying to raise sponsorship for 2013 that so many people are checking in... Piglet says "Yea!" Jenny xx |

Hi Everyone!
Just a quick update regarding my plans for Dakar 2013. The good news is my leg doctor here in the UK is prepared to remove the metalwork in my leg in the next couple of months (yea!), so it's full speed ahead now to get my funds together in time for the Dakar entry in May this year... As such, I HAVE to sell a couple of bikes - my Heroes-Legend XT660Z Tenere, plus my 'spare' and essentially brand new WR450F... I have listed them both on ebay with full descriptions, but please feel free to ask any specific questions here... To pre-empt the obvious one, I am looking for £4995.00 GBP for either bike. I will also be revamping the jennydakar.com website in the next few weeks, with a whole knew section of JMo Racing merchandise, together with opportunities for corporate and business sponsorship. In the meantime, please do contact me through PM here, or via email from jennydakar.com Here is to another New Year in South America! Jx Tenere:  http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-XT6...ht_1610wt_1099 WR450F:  http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-WR4...#ht_502wt_1099 |
