Dirtbike Sizes

Im looking for a bike for my little brother, he is 12 years old and weighs about 75 pounds tops. But he is very athletic. I would say he is a beginner, just rode around on trails with me before. He has rode a couple bikes but the most solid one he has gotten used to was an 06 CRF100F. it was a good size for him. only problem is i sold it since it was my bike to get another bike. now he wants to ride and i wish i kept it. i just dont have the money to buy another crf100. i would like to know what other bike sizes are similar maybe a ttr 125? crf80? even an older xr100 would do. and i would say look for a 4 stroke more then 2 stroke for him as a beginner.

TTR 125 or klx 140 would be good solid beginner bikes.
 
Put the kid on a CRF150F. Good solid little bike and even as a beginner he should be fine. You can find them on the cheap depending on were you live.
 
he said he doesnt have the momney to buy another Honda 100, there isnt much out there other than bikes in that same price range, thats gonna take some time and money in your pocket and be the first one to look at bikes as they come up for sale, have to be the first one there to get a deal
 
Definately something he can grow into...I had a 125 at 13, could hardly touch the ground but was able to ride it for 5 years until I wore it out. The moved onto a 500...:shocked:
