[QUOTE="DR4Ztrokes, post: 161058, member: 24543"] My sons are currently riding XR100s that they are outgrowing from both size and riding ability. They are interested in running hare scrambles next year and otherwise we do a lot of trail and logging road riding. One can ride in the mini class for 3 years and the other for 4 years. 100cc is maximum size for this age group and from the events we have attended so far the KX100 is indeed the weapon of choice. I took the boys down to the dealer last weekend but place was busy and I did not get to talk with anyone there. They had a KX85 and KX100 side by side. Despite the specs claiming the KX100 is only 1" or so higher than KX85, there was noticeable difference in height and firmness of the 100. The kids could get a very good footplant on the 85 but the 100 in that form would be a stretch right now. I don't want to buy anything they will outgrow quickly, but too big is absolutely no good either. I'm on the fence between the two at this point, but I'm getting the sense the KX100 is or can be made more trail worthy than the 85 which is purely oriented to MX. Any thoughts on this? Also, can sag on KX100 be set or otherwise suspension softened up to lower it by an inch or so? Are different seat foam or suspension links possible options out there that I can consider for a few months? Appreciate your input. [/QUOTE]
