Urgent help: XR70 vs. PW80

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

I've got to choose between a 1999 XR70 ($850) & 1999 PW80 ($900). Both are in equal (very good condition). Tonight's the only night I can go get one. Please help.

Thanks in advance.

The XR has less power, better suspension, is easier to sell down the road. I'd go with the XR but either choice is a good bike.

Thats easy, offer em 16 cash for the pair! spend a few days on each, decide which one you want to keep and e-bay the other!!

XR

they're bullet proof (literally, i shoot mine) and they have that wonderful quality of "engine braking" that is good for kids just starting out.

The R has worked out really well for my little one and will be easy to sell when he is done with it

Thanks to all! Your advice was very helpful.

They say, "You snooze you lose" . . . well I snoozed on the XR and it was gone.

I'm happy with the PW. I ride a YZ, so my son was really happy to have a bike that looks like dad's. Even put similar numbers on . . .

As for resale, I'm keeping this PW till my 3 year old outgrows it!
