[QUOTE="Patman, post: 1203740, member: 16962"] If the DRZ125 is too tall you could cut the seat foam, that goes for any bike though. The little XR80/100 would be a great choice, the last forever and chances are you won't lose $100 if you buy a used one smart and sell it in a year. The TTR125 is a good bike as well and can be had in big wheeled versions if necessary. Learning on a 2 stroke racer for a kid that isn't aggressive would be nothing but frustration for both of you. Get a good solid used 4 stroke beginner bike and sell it if riding sticks and he wan't to be more aggressive. As far as a trials bike, I wouldn't start a kid out on one if you don't ride trials. It's a different type of riding that somebody the child rides with needs to be able to transfer over. Sitting and riding is difficult enough for most newbies, standing only compounds the problem for most. At his size if you chose to go that route you'd need to look at a full size bike anyway. My son rode my 315R just fine when he was 10 and about 4'-8" so size on a trials bike is a totally different thing. [/QUOTE]
