[QUOTE="HiG4s, post: 504252, member: 22165"] It depends on his height and weight as much as anything. If he fits on the XR100 a 60 or 65 might actually be too small, besides he will grow like a weed. It be as well to address why he is falling. While my son did not have any eary bad esperiences, when he was having some control problems I told him that everytime he felt like putting his foot down instead stand up on the pegs. He was 12, 5'1" and 115, and was really too big to go to a smaller bike. He is now 5'4" 125 and has been on his YZ85 for a year. He is really ready to move up to a 125, but he doesn't think so and is happy on the 85. And considering he is already faster than me and jumps farther I do, I'm in no hurry for him to move up. If worse comes to worse, a switch to a quad for a while might do the trick. [/QUOTE]
