Which mini is the best. 85's

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


Posted by: Flyin W---------------------

Looking to buy a bike for my 12 yr old. Goes 130 lbs., and although he's a beginner, he seems to be pretty aggressive.
He is riding a o1 KX85 now, but I am passing that on to his little brother. So, which of the 85's is the best.
I have been looking for a magazine with the shootout but no luck.
I think the YZ 85 won the shootout. Who had the most/best power.
As my boy is growing fast, I am concerned the bike has enough power to pull his weight.
Please let me know what you guys think.

I also wanted to find the best place to look for used bikes.
Anyone got some info.

For your son's size, the best mini is not an 85... it is the KX100! Great bike. My son has one and it is a great improvement over the 85's.

Although I myself have not ridden any others, I can tell you the CR85 will blow his socks off, it did mine and I ride an 03 CR250!

Those things are bloody fast, check them out. I assume the YZ would be of the same power, everyone seems to be raving about that as well.
