[E1] Yamaha WR250R (2008) First ride Troubleshoot repair 0-60 time Tw200 vs WR250

Picked up a 2008 WR250R a few days ago, needs a bit of work but nothing I cant handle. This is the first time riding a WR250, and I have to say I was totally impressed. Power is great, smooth delivery, the 6 speed gearbox is perfect for off and on road. I got a 5 second 0-60 mph time, which I thought was great for a 250cc dual-sport.
What I had to repair:
Radiator cap spout bent
Radiator fan was bent into radiator jammed blade.
Ignition switch AFU because of key too short
