My kid is just a big 10 year old. He’s outgrown his ktm65 time to move him onto something bigger. At first i was thinking an 85, but now considering a kx100 or even crf150r. How much bigger are these bikes? Im not worried about the extra power, he can handle it. I just dont wanna be buying another bike in another season

He really makes the ktm65sx look small

Fwiw i may sell this if anyone is looking 2014. I bought it 2 years ago and it was literally brand new had maybe an hr on it. Has maybe 20hrs now tags current title in name in handIMG_8383.jpegIMG_8381.jpegIMG_8382.jpeg
 
Just bought my daughter a '25 KX 112. 2-stroke if you wanna stay with that. Seat height is about 34", if I'm not mistaken it's the same frame as an 85 but bigger motor. It's a fast lil bike.

do the big wheel. He will love it ! Stay 2 stroke !
 
I don’t think you can go wrong with the Honda personally. I had a xr80 & Xr 100 and loved both
 
Been through this many many years ago! Son started at 10, TTR 90 to TTR 125 to YZ85 to CRF250 to CRF450! I was a used/new bike salesman for many years! And an ambulance driver for those years also! lol Good luck!1736127460061.jpeg

Had a kx85 fall in my lap today at a almost nothing price. Think i may have to pick it up and do this again soon. Finish out the season on it. I’ve been getting killer deals in motorcycled quads lately. Trx250x for $800 trx250r for $2k and this @ $1kIMG_1354.jpeg
 
150 big wheel for the win, great bike and can ride it for a long time. In the hrad pack he can get may years out of it, in the sand he will want more power in a few years.

Mamma will likely want it when he’s done with it. She used to ride a yz250 before kids
 
CRF150R Big Wheel for the kid now, then the wife later or a camp bike.

I've seen some GREAT deals on these on OfferUp lately.....can't go wrong with a Honda.
 
Picked up a super low hr crf150R today. That settles that. Thanks for all the input.
