I don't know - I still have an '04 honda xr280 for trail riding. Finances are tight for me right now - Depending on the financial situation after the first of the year - I would like to get another "big bore bike". My requirements are light weight, quick turning, torque motor, e-start not a requirement. Sounds like another gasgas ec300... For the next few months I am going to focus on getting my ten year old daughter into riding - we got her a crf70 last year and I made the mistake of taking her out on a really hot day; I asked her to go out again with me and she wasn't interested. I want to get her out on the trails while it is nice and cool and dust is at a minimum.. jeff Last edited by jeffd; 09-26-2006 at 04:44 PM. |

Jeff,
My daughter had little interest in riding, until she attended the Dirt Bike safety school course. She responded well to the instruction and really liked riding after that. Part of it is getting dad out of the initial learning process. After that, most of my coaching is to reassure her that "she can do it". As soon as she is past the mental part it goes well. At 11 she can get around the loops at Jones creek on a TTR90 even when it is a bit wet and slippery.
