Asrith- Whatever its worth ; , my wife just started riding 2 months ago and I bought her a XR She learned on a TTRL and was able to flat-foot it which made her very comfortable, but we were afraid she would out grow it too quickly, so we went with the XR.

Both bikes are very easy to ride and pretty much bullet proof. Mine is still running which is proof enough;. If she out grows the XR in a year or so, the market is usually pretty good on the bikes and you shouldn't have any trouble selling it to get her something bigger. Out growing a bike will also do wonders for her confidence.
Each year, slight aesthetic changes were made: tank colors, graphics and slightly redesigned parts. But, at its core, the XR remained a capable and durable off-road motorcycle meant for the pre-adult. In , the first XR rolled into showrooms without the "R" designation. The XR remained.
From '81 to '84, while the XR's look evolved, Honda made few substantive changes until '85 when it introduced the first XRR.
