I have a line on a 2001 CR80R in pretty good condition for my son but I know nothing about these little bikes. I am guessing that like the bigger bikes, the manufacturers build the motors and suspensions with different charactersitics. some motros are built to maximize top end power, some are better with low end power etc.
Anybody know how the 2001 CR80 compares to the YZ, KZ and RM (at least when they were new).
My son is currently riding a KX60 and is very happy with it. He is not a complete beginner but far from a good rider. He doesn't race and most of the riding would be on woods trails, fire roads etc. The real emphasis would be on low and mid range power. He likes riding on a track doing some of the smaller jumps but doesn't get an opportunity to do that very often.
Any ideas if the bike would be a good fit or would one of the other 80/85's be more appropriate?
