Default JR 50..TIME TO STEP UP?

My son has been riding his JR 50 for over a year now. The problem we have is that he keeps breaking the suspension when he is jumping. Is it time to go to a larger bike?( Keep in mind, he's 5)

If he is physically big enough to big well on a larger bike, then probably. Do 80cc dirbikes have the throttle limiter on them? I know the YZ50 my cousin has is equipped with one.

I think he should move up to a JR80 or try stiffening the suspension.
