Good thinking! Shouldn’t be too hard figure something out. Also fender washers should work as well

 

Engines out! Terrifying the whole time, still terrified



Also firm believer every garage needs a couch

 

You are going to town on that thing! That engine looks huge. I will add every garage needs a TV and beer fridge.

 

This is true! They are gas sippers! Can't beat the fuel economy/fun factor of the Grom.

 

Went out for a scoot today.


I couldn’t help but notice how many drivers fail to use their turn signals. It’s getting worse.

 

anyone watch the motogp race today??

pretty incredible...

 

I watched the second half. Absolutely nuts!

 

I wouldn’t recommend it as your only motorcycle, but I definitely recommend it as a bike you have in the garage to hop on and just play around on, puts a smile on my face every time I take it for a spin.

whats up guys. have a couple bikes myself. started with an EX500. Then got a 1999 Speed Triple a year later. Still have it, been with me 6 years and 25k miles. 35k on the odo.

In 2017 I got a new 2015 FJ09. Sold it before I moved here to AZ. Once I got here I picked up a '13 speedy. Test rode a '18 Speedy, '16 Super Duke 1290, and a Ninja 1000. I actually liked the '13 the best. Simplest bike. Don't need a KTM computer or to dismantle a bunch of plastic for maintenance, and best combo of street manners and torque. The 18 Speedy was great too, but I didn't feel it was worth 2x the price. And I love the wild Triumph colors from earlier years.

Bikes were actually one of the reason I got a taco, so I can move them around.

 

195 pound 748cc inline four. Hoping to have the case split within the hour, with any luck

 

I approve of this first post! Welcome to the forum.

 

I feel like dropping the engine is the hardest part. Yamabond or Hondabond to seal it back up, should be golden. Good luck!

Rode a friends CB750k. Wonderful motorcycle. If I ever wanted a classic cruiser, it would be a CB750.

 

I like how the couch has an outlet wired in.

 

Im going to put the truck fridge in the garage to fix that.

Wonder what youll think once you get a supermoto though

 

Nice. My 07 was Roulette Green also. I shouldn't have sold it

Yeah, main thing with the Grom is you can’t have any expectations of it being fast. I just want my wife to learn how to ride on it, way too hot to ride in a parking lot right now.
Another main thing with the grom is I don’t mind if my friends and brothers ride it. Tell them to hop on and laugh at how funny they look on the stupid little thing.

 

Cops aren’t as strict because of COVID. Everything’s been pushed back. Plates / licenses / registration.

I literally ride in fucking shorts / tank top and vans... almost everyday.
