Default XR 80 suspension

Does anyone know of suspension upgrades for the 2003 XR 80. My daughter fits the bike but is becoming a more aggressive rider and more. Thanks

You can get it revalved or stronger springs.

I thought about it, I am new to this mini 4 stroke world. My son has an 01 KX 85 and I am spoiled by the ease of adjusting it.

You really cant do anything for the little xr's. You can stiffen the fork up a tad by using 15wt fork oil and set the height to 2in from the top of the fork tube, bottomed out, with the spring removed.

Other than that, my advice is to just keep the bike stock and get her a 2 stroke when you can.

i got 93 xr80....could you please explain aggressive....just joking-i can imagine...my xr80 doesn`t have adjustable anything on the suspension...pure play bike...for getting aggresive-i`d recommend an older 80cc 2 stroke racebike...they have better suspension and a little more power...great to learn on...even the 80`s from the late 80`s were good...like the 87 cr80...or the older kx80`s...i have had both....i`ve seen some nice ones at ebay
