Default trx 90 or KFX 90

I am buying my daughter a 4 wheeler for Christmas. I was going to wait and get her the new kfx 90. I went by the local dealer today to see if they had any in yet. They didn't but he said he had two new 2005 TRX 90's one red one yellow that were on sale for $2149.00 + tax. I had previously rulled out the trx because of price but I think this is a very good deal. Should I jump on this or wait for the KFX. Only thing is Christmas is 5 months away. I have a place to store it but wondering about warranty and what not if it doesn't get used.

thanks but the wife has already told me I have to wait to give it to her even if we get it now. Santa has to bring it. I am going to keep it in my Uncle's metal storage building. I can just go by once a month at let it run for a few minutes.

I'm trying to remember when the TRX90 was redesigned and went to electric start - either for 2005 or 2006. I think it was '06.

While that is a good price and the TRX90 is a great kids bike, I'd make sure that you got one of the newer models with electric start. Basically the pull start is just a pain.

Sir,
Honda TRX-90 is as perfect of an little ATV that is out there for dependability and fun. Others are good, but the Honda is fun for longer w/ less maintanance. SEADAWG

The 2006 models were the first with the electric start. I bought one for my son back last October and it's been quite an enjoyable little atv. The only maintenance I have done is change the oil and lubed the chain with one chain adjustment. It starts easily and runs smoothly with plenty of power, even with the throttle speed screw turned in. I have clocked it at 40mph with a GPS with said screw run all the way out.
In my opinion, you can't beat the Honda 90 engine's reliability.

I'm glad I opted for the 06 with the electric start as I would have yanked my arm off by now as much as my son rides!

40 MPH on GPS! Wow. Thats pretty quick. How is the low end?? Does it have enough grunt to pull an 80 lbs kid up hills, real hills, without running out of power?

Thanks for the info.
