Thanks for all the info. Looks like the Honda is the way to go. There are alot of them in the XC races we go to. And if Dev's Honda is an 01 then they have to be tuff. Because this kid can ride the wheels off a mini if it can handle Dev and Cody the way they ride. Then it should handle my !
I just have never been a Honda lover. But it looks like an ol dog can change his habits.
