Not a fan of the little 50s, or the various Chinese products. He needs to learn how to use a clutch and gearbox.

My dad did the same. This was in the 80s with a late 70s rm80. I loved that bike and was able to grow with it for many years. It seemed to have enough power to keep me respectful of it. I think overall I got 3 or 4 years out of the bike.
