Cutty72 04-27-2014 12:03 PM

Sweet, my cousin picked up one of these too, can't wait to take it for a spin.

CasterTroy 04-30-2014 09:16 AM

You on a Grom??! Talk about a monkey humping a football! :lol:

RACER X 05-01-2014 05:29 AM

kekeke.........its a barrel of monkey man! Z came back after her first ride screaming about how much fun it was

i think big bore is next on my list 140cc 80mph less then $500

Particle Man 05-06-2014 09:02 AM

I'd lose my license on that







(edit: it'd be worth it :lol:)

Homeslice 05-10-2014 03:38 PM

Is it legal on the highway? What's it top out at?

RACER X 05-11-2014 12:11 PM

i heard its not legal in CA

haven't checked here, i just pretty much ride the feeder roads and back streets.

i only get to ride it on my fri off, so just screwing around

Z said she saw 67
i saw 60, but the wind has a lot to do w/ top speed, lol

there are several big bore kits out there, so thats in the future.

installed last weekend
CRG arrows
intake
LED brakelight/turn signals like i linked earlier

ohlins should be here next week
racetech ft end soon after that, lol

heck Corbin already makes a saddle for the bike, it's nice to! but $300+

this is getting to be an expensive cheap bike!

watch out circus bear coming thru

Tsunami 05-12-2014 12:33 AM

Hmm may have to trade in my 200 for that little thing if they top out at the same speed!

RACER X 05-12-2014 05:34 PM

the beauty is in the size, it's tiny and at 225lbs crazy light

heard yamaha is going to bring in a 125, but it'll have big wheels and weight 300lbs, 50% more basically.

Tsunami 05-12-2014 08:55 PM

RACER X 05-13-2014 09:57 AM

This guy is in my area and makes a lot of neat little parts. He is pretty popular in the ruckus area and got a Grom when it first came out.

RACER X 05-14-2014 08:19 AM

Yup he makes some nice parts, big on the Grom scene

He's making a while new ft end for the bike, $1200 yikes!

RACER X 06-09-2014 10:10 AM

Commuted from far west to downtown for first time today,.lol

30 something miles
Took HOV in

I goto work at 0500, so really no traffic
Beat my usual park-n-ride bus in

Trip 06-09-2014 05:20 PM

Saw some moron on the interstate in Chattanooga on one. He was about getting run over by everyone. Definitely has no business on the interstate with 70 mph speeds and the guy is lucky he didn't get squished like a grape.

RACER X 06-11-2014 09:36 AM

I wish I could reach 70, lol

Yeah I don't recommend them for hwy, per se

I take the HOV and have it hammered the whole time, I pull over and let cars pass. It's a barricaded hov so no outside traffic. And I also come to work at 0500 and leave at 1500, so not as much traffic.

It's fine for side streets and feeder roads

michelins should be here fri :D

Gas Man 06-20-2014 10:07 AM

those wheels are sexy!!!

Tsunami 06-23-2014 06:08 AM

That would be a great bike for me to commute to work but I work in the ghetto and it would prob get stolen within a half a day.

RACER X 06-25-2014 06:28 PM

I rode all last week, even hitting the frwy. No problem I was even passing cars on the frwy

I lock my bike and have full coverage and kept all my receipts, lol

RACER X 07-03-2014 08:10 PM

Michelin pures

RACER X 07-08-2014 05:03 PM

Saw one on tge rode here a few weeks ago. Most likely a college kid.

If you want speed then get a Daytona 190cc engine.

RACER X 07-09-2014 08:39 AM

Hmmm, just seem a YouTube vid w that motor in some old honda dream chassis w lights and all. ..


20hp would be awesome

Every time I see one, that's my first thought. I'd love to have one, but JFC, that'd be totally ridiculous.
