The Yamaha WR400 is an off-road motorcycle made by Yamaha Motor Company. First offered in 1998 at 400cc, it shared many components and design concepts with the YZ400F motocross model. It is basically the racing YZ400, albeit detuned for more controllable power, with lights, softer suspension, a kickstand, lower noise specifications and larger radiators and lower emissions. The WR in the name indicates a wide-ratio gearbox common to most enduro or trail bikes and stands in contrast to the close-ratio gearbox essential to a motocross racer. Over the years, the WR has benefited from the advances made in the YZ motocross version, gaining displacement and advancements such as an aluminium frame and improved suspension.

This 1999 Yamaha WR400 has been in current ownership for the last 24 years and in that time has been looked after to a good standard, used and enjoyed. It displays a genuine 2,468 miles from new and seen little use in recent years. This WR400 is the second generation model with the 'hot-start' button making it easy to start. The Yamaha is offered with a current V5C, a few spares and a Supertrapp Exhaust.
