That Yz 125 that tard posted is nice. The cr85 looks sweet as shit, but is small if he's already been riding...

I'm a fan of the TW200. The DR is a tad tall.

Skip a hopped up mini bike.

Fun yes, but first bike no.

I would suggest an older 250 fourstroke. They can be had for $2000 or less.

The CR85-BW is for a 14 and under.

Not a kid who's already 6ft tall.

He has been riding with his friends and I think either thats the type that they have or his eyes got all glossed over with all the added bolt on shit. I need to talk to the kid and let him know thats half the fun of those little rides is tinkering with it yourself and making it custom your tastes

The kid is 14 years old, just wears size thirteen shoes and is taller than Gas by like 3 feet

Must suck to have a kid's johnson in your face every time you talk to him. The kid is 6 fucking feet tall, has clown feet and "wants" a small ass pit bike?

Ok then go by my last reference, at 6ft tall(if he really is and not just exaggerated) needs to be on a fullsize MX'er 125 or 250F.

On a smaller bike, he's not going to fit and it's going to be REAL awkward trying to ride that bike around a field or anywhere else.
