    It’s a crazy bike for sure. With that being said he is planning on it being his daily in Atlanta traffic :crazy:

    I just went up at least 7 poser points.

    DCF669E4-541B-46B4-BE92-EFB3613A67F1.jpg

    Fits well, doesn’t hit my belly, only contacts my thighs a little when I stand, but surprisingly not in a bad way. Kind of nice to have a bit to lean in to. Lots of little surprise features (like a velcro holder for extra contacts for some reason?) 9/10, would buy again.

    Several years ago one of those showed up at a "biker breakfast' in Ephrata, PA with a turbo on it.

    Grabbed a Tusk tank bag. I was torn b/t the small and large, but I found a pic of a crf250l with the large, so I bought it

    You guys and your “adventure” bikes. I need one! Or I should probably ride the bikes I have. Maybe I will throw my daughter on the back of the Grom with some goggles and go for a cruise.

    I would love to have a grom. Monkey bikes are so cool, and I think they're funny as hell.

    I'm right with you on this! Have 3 bikes now but nothing dirt oriented at all. Looking at everybody's posts and getting the itch for one. Problem is garage is full and wallet is empty.

    I think the base area is the same, its just deeper. I went with the small just to hold wallet, keys, pack of gum, etc. Im about to head out for a ride to return the front tube I bought (and go drool at the fancy BMWs). Ill snap a picture for you of the inside. I also keep the rain fly for the bag in there, so it might look "full"

    Anyone here ever DIY a go kart? HF just released their Ghost engine and accessory kit and I kinda want to just for the challenge.

    i know those little engines are nothing new but it just seems so convenient to get the kit instead of piecing it together yourself like before.

    Been wanting to weld up a battery drill powered one for my 3yo nephew here if I can find the time haha.

    Link to kit you’re referring to?

    Haha. I figured you’d be interested. We frequent a lot of the same threads so I know you have the KSAs to do it too.

    Spencer linked it above. There’s a few YouTube videos on the kit and people report it being “very peppy” and “a little scary”. :D:bananadead:
