Rode a little Honda 70 back in the 80's when I lived in the Philippines until it was stolen. Now just ride famous Philippine trycycles when visiting, both my BIL's own and operate trycycles in the PI.

I rode from 14 years of age into my mid 20s. Had a variety of street and motocross style bikes. My last were the Kawasaki 900 Z1 and a Bultaco 360 Pursang.

I stopped riding when I figured out I was more often in the air than on the ground. With a baby on the way, I had to decide my obligations outweighed the fun of my hobby. I've missed riding and have tinkered with picking up a Can-Am Spyder in the last few years. Maybe ..... maybe not :)

Also have a yamadog WR250R dual sport. Fun little bike off road and gravel but I hate it on pavement.

Garand I have a CRF100 like that too. It's the hardest clutch pulls of all my bikes. Hondas been making this for bike for about 25 years, I don't see why they haven't solved that for their beginners. Kids bike clutch harder than a 500 and its a tiny clutch, 4 springs.

I lengthened the clutch arm more than 1/2" to reduce the pull by 20%, an easy mod. So long I had to grind down an engine mount bolt to fit it. And its still not appropriate for a child - but it's 20% easier.

Cable is lubed, everything slick, it's all clutch spring pull. I've half a mind to spacer out the clutch sping bolts a little, these kids don't put much power to the ground. If you take that clutch cover off pay attn to the oil passageway connection to the crankshaft bearing.
