Here it is in a nut shell.
he just turned 7, he's 4 feet tall. Riding 4 months and been in two races. He loves racing, but loves trails and yard as well. the jr 50 is cramping his learning ability now, bogging and he won't stand up on it anymore, quit jumping he says due to suspension.. So, here is my delima... keeping in mind he and I still have a lot of work to do in the riding skills department that the jr 50 couldn't help with.
KTM senior adventure (AIR COOLED) not ready for lc i think. plus I believe it's trail and backyard use would be better. IS IT MORE DEPENDABLE THAN LC? the bike fits him like a glove! it's perfect size. can he be competable on it even without it being an lc?
Or the honda crf 50.. it would allow him to race shaft class a few more months and get trophies and saddle time etc.. certainly a great trail and yard bike yet still a little small for him I know.. it would just mean another bike for next summer but if it helps his skills probably worth it.
sorry for long story here, but really need good advice
