    The Grom is slow as shit, but totally fun when you are passing Ninjettes left and right in the intro program.

    I think I saw 57 mph after wheelie hill, in a full tuck.

    Re: Pinned - Grom Love

    They're pretty damn cool on the track for sure. The bike at a bare minimum needs a decent set of rubber on it though. The VeeRubber is absolute crap. With my 220 pounds, it also needs a set of suspenders.

    IRC MBR-750
    Dunlop TT93
    Bridgestone BT601ss
    Sava MC31
    PMT Blackfire
    PMT Slicks

    Lots of options, listed in general order of rider preference. Note, the PMT Slicks obviously aren't DOT legal.

    Re: Pinned - Grom Love

    Pinned - Grom Love thanks for the list. Pirelli makes a diablo race tire for it also. Definitely needs a narrower front tire, it's factory shod with 130-70-12's front and rear

    Re: Pinned - Grom Love

    I don't know anyone who's raced or even used the Pirelli Diablo Scooters, they don't make them in the right sizes for traditional 12" racers (110/90R12 front, 120/80R12 rear) and based on their descriptions I wouldn't consider them a race DOT, just a sporty looking scooter tire ala the IRC MB-750s. The TT93, BT601, etc, aka the rest of that list are all targeted specifically for mini racing.

    Now, that's not to say the Pirelli's are bad, I just don't have first hand or second hand experience with them so I dunno how to slot them into the list. I also dunno the rim widths on the Grom, if they strayed far from the NSR50's setup then the above list may not be any good.

    Edit: Michelin supposedly has a Pilot in the right size range as well?

    Dude, you gotta give some background here. You look like you're posing for a picture but your bike is skidding across the ground with sparks flying.

    All kinds of win indeed.

    It was an impressive move. I cheered, then almost felt bad for cheering.

    Back story goes as such: Friday evening I was messing around on the Grom and was ripping down pit road, went to back it in to the camping area and lost pressure (foot slipped off) on the rear brake with the ass end stepped out pretty far. It chucked me over the top at about 30 with no gear on. Landed on my left hip pretty hard, hurt like hell. When I threw it down again in the pit bike race, I started sliding on the same hip and that also hurt like hell. I popped up as quickly as possible Pinned - Grom Love

    Get out of here with that! You still have no PCV, and I'll have an intake soon. Also, if you're a pound lighter than my 220 pounds, I'll sign your cast.

    Shawn's a few inches shorter than you, so not too surprised he's lighter.

    Also, you crashed the shit out of that grom in the pit bike race.
    That thing slid forever.
