Which kids bike XR70 vs PW80

[99CR250]

Hi
any recommendations or comments about choosing one of these models. We've already got 2 Honda's 50/250, now considering third bike, a 70/80/90.
PW80 or XR70 or maybe TTR90

And/or, are there any particular items to check (known issues) on either of these bikes.

thanks

i got a brand new ttr90e for my girl a couple of years ago, its been mint, never missed a beat, highly recomend one, it will be on trade me soon as she is too big for it now.

CRF50 and mod it. there is heaps up upgrades for them.

We are having a good run with a CRF80. Its got a low seat height, good brakes, hard to stall. The only issue is the smaller diameter front wheel is a bit of a challenge in soft sand like at the Sandpit.

Both my boys had PW80's before moving to their 65's.
Good Points:

Bad Points.
1) Starting when hot sometimes a problem
2) Forward facing sparkplug a bit of a problem in long wet grass or really wet conditions
