Post subject:  Honda MR 50: What age/size child?

Thinking about buying a MR 50 for my kid. I have not seen one up close in a long time. What age kid would this bike be good for? Also, any recs as to where parts can be found? Thanks.

Hi,
The MR50 was my first bike and I started on it at age 8. My nephew rode one in grade 1. I think he was 7. I have an MR50 for my little girl and I will be putting her on it when she is around 7 or so depending on her height.
Great bike.
Newfie

My third grandchild was born this month. First one I got a Suzuki TS185 and Honda XR75 for when he comes of age. Second was a girl so... we will see. Thinking about an appropriate time capsule for the newest.

It's my daughter and son in laws choice of course. I'm thinking demonstrating proficiency on a bicycle is going to be at least one hurdle they have to jump.

Ever seen "On Any Sunday"? The little kid doing a wheelie on the Honda 50 Monkey bike is Jeff Ward. Ward was born in 1961, movie came out in 1971 so figure he was around 8-10 years old and still on a mini.
