Message: [QUOTE="bulldog71169, post: 249743, member: 22770"] My son is 11 years old and probably 4'7" or so... average for his age. Best price I can find on a new bike is a new CR80 for $3100 otd. and the KX85 for $3395 otd. As for weight. He can pick his XR up and get it started just fine unless he is carrying 40+ lbs of mud. most of the 80 or 85's are 5-10 lbs lighter so weight is not an issue. The YZ85 is the tallest of the bunch, which is why I am leaning away from it. Seat height is 6.4" taller than his XR80. I have seen linkage setups that will lower the rear 1" or so and I can slide the forks an inch. Is there a similar setup for anything other than the KX? This is the only one I found. [/QUOTE]
