Suspension HELP!!

Alright I have a 80 lb son and need some suspension advice. He is bottoming out the front on a 08 that I just bought that was like new. Is there anything that I can do to the stock front end to make it suitable for a 8year old ( very aggressive rider ) or should I look for a kx 60 front end. Do all years of the kx 60 front end work? I plan on a FOX for the rear any advice will help thanks.

Re: Suspension HELP!!

bbr damping rods will give you a little more shock travel. you could just try these first, since he only weighs 80. the mild springs are rated 130lbs, so these even could be stiff.
