[QUOTE="FruDaddy, post: 1058100, member: 63076"] This is all true, but his size should also be considered. The 85's do have more power and are taller. If you go with a 65, look for an older model and try to pay $15-18 hundred, you can probably get most of that back when it's time to upgrade. You can also learn a lot about maintenance with the smaller 2 strokes. It has occurred to me that you may believe that an 85 would be easy considering that he has a 125cc pit bike. The fact is that a KX65 will probably have a much more powerful motor than the pit bike. Fortunately, you do have a bike that he can learn the basics on. Once he is comfortable with a little speed, he will brobably be OK with an 85 and the adjustment to using a clutch. When he does move to either the 65 or 85, try to find someone with MX experience to teach him the basics. Also, let him keep the pit bike, they are always a lot of fun to play on. You can ride it too. [/QUOTE]
