Message: [QUOTE="bbbom, post: 240119, member: 16301"] There are all kinds of mods you can do - flywheel weight, gearing it down, reeds.......they aren't cheap - gearing it down is about the cheapest way to start. The women that I know on KX100's could climb hills with the rest of us but they had geared their bikes down and added reeds and I believe flywheel weights. I haven't ridden with them for a couple years and I haven't been around many KX100's or smaller bikes much. My son rides a CR80E but he's been raised on 2 smokes and the trails. You might do a search on KX100 and CR/KX/YZ/RM80's on the site to get more information on how each one performs. Have you tried the KDX for size? My son is 9 and can barely touch on one toe on the CR80E but, he rides fine in the trails until he tries to stop - that takes some planning. [/QUOTE]
