And to think my bike makes more HP (when it's running! ) and cost me less than the original purchase price of the WR. It does have some turbo cool factor, but it's kinda like a chrome grill on a Yugo.

50hp out of a 250 is a lot to ask of it. I can't see the motor lasting very long.

Unreliable...

and the powerband on that thing makes a 2smoke 250 GP bike look like it has a flat torque curve

How do you spell highside?

Oh BTW Tig, the SMC is a 625, or a 650, the 525 is the SMR. The SMR is the MX-based Supermoto, the SMC is the Enduro-based Supermoto.
