Dope.

 

Monkey or Grom, I like em both, and I’d be happy wt either.

 

Just watched that video this morning. I’m leaning monkey. There’s really no difference in performance so it’s all going to come down to aesthetics but more importantly which bike fits me better. I’m 6’1” and a lanky 185. I saw the monkey had a shorter wheelbase by just over an inch so I’ll probably let the test ride tell me what’s what.

 

Dang you! Now I want a monkey! I tried searching for Grom videos and they are all of idiots.

 

I would probably go Grom just for the price difference. But the Monkey definitely looks better

 

@Fulton246 here is one for you. https://asheville.craigslist.org/mcy/d/asheville-2018-honda-gromwhite/7436939205.html

 

If that was near here it would already be in my garage. People in SoCal try to sell their clapped out, thrashed groms that have been looped with 10k miles for MSRP of a new one.

 

Interested to seeing some pics and review of that. What color did you get? It was second choice after I bought the Africa Twin.

I was literally about to post the same ad and saw that you had tagged me on it already. lol... too funny.

 

Amazing deal. I would buy it in a heartbeat if I didn’t already own one.

 

you seen these crf110 grom swaps before? something like this would be fun

I've seen CBR250/300 swaps but not the CRF110, that'd be cool

 

Yeah but the grom is not a dirtbike. I would rather just buy a crf110 to go along with the Grom.

 

They’re not in-country yet, hopefully March. I prefer the black. I wanted a ‘21 last year, but they were all gone, (Only 45% came in, for a demanding mkt, so I ordered a ‘22).

 

I was waiting for a dealership to order me a 21 AT, but they actually had no idea when they were coming in. Still took my deposit though

I finally did a chargeback and found another dealership that had 2. Within 3 days i had it in hand. Put 600 miles on it before it got cold in VA. Now just dying to get out again.

Where on east coast are you?

 

I'm trying to figure out a helmet hanger for my wall, so I can stop throwing my daily helmet into the top of my tool box haha, was doing some googling around and this came up... anyone welded their chain on here before? I'm guessing just some tacks between the side plates?

I'm pretty sure I have my old chain laying around somewhere and I'm tempted to try it.

@cynicalrider has welded a chain before

thats an awesome design! I just have a basic one that doesn't have a glove holder

 

Fiance is out of town all this week.. might just have to give it a try tonight or tomorrow
