[QUOTE="Skitspuce, post: 740242, member: 42351"] I've posted about this before but I'm having a difficult time with this decision and need some advice. My boy is about to turn 6, but he's a big 6...4'2", 67 lbs and has way outgrown his JR50. I'm the only one working around here, and I can't do this bike-every-year thing, especially with my girl requesting a quad now. ( I REALLY tried to get her on the bike, sorry guys :ugg: ) So, here are my concerns: -I sat him on a KX65, and he can get 1 foot down, but the other one is still up on the peg...I'm afraid he won't be able to start/stop by himself. (It was still stock height, I realize you can lower 'em a bit) -I don't think he'll have a problem with the clutch, he's coordinated and seems to get the concept and mechanics pretty well. -Will something like a KTM SR50 be dull and/or too small in a year? -If he races the 65 (not till next year) can a 7 year old pick up, and kick over a bike that size? I'm sorry for the long post, but my time is almost up and I need some experienced opinions. I really don't want to buy him something that could hurt him or scare him off bikes, but I don't want to get him something he'll be bored with by the end of summer. Thanks for any advice. [/QUOTE]
