I know the XR80R is somewhat smaller than the XR100R, but I am looking for something fun to ride. I may not purchase for a while, but want to know you guys' opinions on these small bikes. I can't have a REAL motorcycle, because I am too small. Can someone tell me more about these bikes and which one is better?

Edit: I guess I should add that I am 4'10" and I weigh 90 lbs. Am I even able to ride this bike?

When i was 13 i wanted an XR100 soooooo bad. I was about the same height and weight... yea i was skinny. Anyway I was looking at the XR80 more but at that age i would have outgrown it in no time.

I would suggest that you get on both bikes and see which one is more comfortable. Im almost positive youll be able to touch the ground on both bikes. The 80 still has a lot of power and has a manual transmission, if you decide to get that. The bikes are almost identical besides the engine and seat size.

Hope that helped

 

PW 50 is the way to go. those things are great. almost killed myself this past weekend on one. hehehe

 

That makes me feel good about buying a bike! Glad to see that you are alive and doing well. Thanks for the input guys.

 

Either one would be an easy bike to learn on, and there are so many adjustments on these bike you can pretty much set them up for any size rider. Just be safe and have fun
