[QUOTE="OldassKDX, post: 838620, member: 20510"] My first bike was an XR 80 for when I was 8. I had trouble with the clutch at first, but it didn't take me long once I got the hang of it. Like your son, I was a taller kid (fatter too :)) And I was a timid rider at first too. The smooth and easy power of the XR really helped me gain confidence and riding ability faster than a small mx bike would have for sure. I doubt that I will ever have a bike that I love as much as I did that XR. If you think about getting a clutched bike I would highly recommend it, as my parents finally sold the thing last year for 350$. That's 150 bucks less than they bought it for in 1989! Not bad for a bike that I rode the piss out of until I was 12, (and off and on since then) and my step brother.....well he rode it at least, until about a year and a half ago. [/QUOTE]
