[QUOTE="fishhead, post: 672198, member: 18565"] The xr100 was on the short list with the ttr125 till we went to the last Hare Scramble and I saw how much more aggressive he'd become in the last several months. The 80 class bikes are a lot lighter than the 4strokes and they all have much better suspension so he will have to learn some throttle control but I don't see that as big a problem since I'm commited to riding with him on the easier terrain till he gets his skills up. The rm and the kx seem to do much better in the woods from what I've seen since they have power valves and made a bit more low end power although the magazines don't see it that way. The yz and cr seem to fall off the pipe more readily from what I've seen on long grades up switchbacks and the like. A ttr125 powerplant in a yz80/85 chassis would be ideal but I'm not into 10,000.00 and serious shop time to concoct a frankenbike or go the bbr route. However if a good rolling chassis came along I might rethink the deal but I'd rather ride than build bikes. A super mini chassis and a clean running 4 stroke covers a lot of bases [/QUOTE]
