i usually never leave comments but i just had to after watching a few of your Grom vids: PLEASE KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK AND ID LOVE TO SEE MORE GROM VIDS FROM YOUUU!!! ---i jist rrcently picked up a black 22 grom as well! Cheers to many more successes for you this year and beyon,d! From the Bay Area, California!

[@TimeMachinesATVs]

Appreciate ya thong!! Lots more coming. Just did a grom exhaust video as well

[@tonymontana09210]

dude your hilarious!!! that ride had me laughing out loud!!

[@TimeMachinesATVs]

Lol appreciate it tony

[@sbalestro]

Looks fun man, I've never heard of a Grom until today, thanks for enlightening my dumb ass.

[@TimeMachinesATVs]

Lol you bet shawn

[@OHBUCKEYESisBACK]

Track the speed with a gps or phone app. Gearing it down or up throws off the speedometer.

[@TimeMachinesATVs]

Thought it ran off cable on front tire but will do

[@dailylife3975]

I thought the speedo ran off the front tire

[@CharlieSolis]

@@TimeMachinesATVs the old ones did. The new ones have the speedo sensor in the trans you have to get the speedo healer.

Yes! Get a vid out on the fse 190 sprocket. I want to see how gearing up turns out before I pull the trigger on doing mine.

I am hesitant because i like the torque lmao.

Thanks acb he was part time for cash4atvs and now is too busy so not in videos. Been going thru some personal stuff i think

[@victorray9176]

when you changed the gearing it changed the accuracy of the speedometer. you might need to GPS it to see how far off your speedo is now. i bet it not faster. its just quicker through the gears

[@TimeMachinesATVs]

I bet 5th gear it may be faster as i am able to get 3000 more rpms out. But I understand the speedometer is incorrect

[@ThongNguyen-so5ut]

@@TimeMachinesATVs BTW... i forgot to mention that once you change out your sprocket, regardless if its just the front or front/back... your speedo wont rrad accurately anymore (alot of times itll be 4-7mph off what it really is... or more). That's why when people change their sprocket...they end up having to use their gps on their phones to get a better reading (not the most accurate but way more accurate than the speedo will read). I know you prolly already knew this but just a friendly reminder if you fo3got! All in all... thanks for the vid and looking forward to more!

[@Spacecruizer203]

Good review Boss id get a gold racing chain too ditch the stock one i like the Blue i had a Kp mini 150 before my only real bike i ever had it got me hooked and now i got a mini bike that goes 50 and a motor bike that needs a new motar !!!!! its a 2ccyle pretty chocolate Lab ya got god they jus be chillen!!!

Hey man did you account for the mph change from having the swap sprocket? 14 tooth puts the bike speedo about 7 mph over.. hate to burst the bubble, however 14t completely different ride.. :)) jus sayin

Mines hit 68 on flat ground with only an exhaust. I'm only 165 lbs tho and it was a nice cool day with low wind.

im getting the same spocket as you now is there any way to make it so it has a rev limiter ?? atm mine is a 2022 and doesnt seem to have a rev limiter it just revs

[@molonlabe9602]

Stock Groms have 14T, 34T and 420 chain with 106 links. I installed a 150cc upgrade, 150CC injector and I'm going to try a 14T on the front. I do mostly local riding and don't need top end.

[@TimeMachinesATVs]

Yeah i dropped mine to 14. May even go down to 13 then gear it appropriately front and rear if its low enough.

[@CharlieSolis]

@@TimeMachinesATVs The old groms had 14f/34b. The new ones have a 15f/38b sprocket.

^yes 3rd gens are 15 38 for anyone wondering

[@stevewilley1029]

Speedo runs off the transmission output shaft so any sprocket change does throw off the speed on your instrument panel!

Lol fun little bike for in city i wont be going down county rd at 65 again

[@georgestrong2116]

Where’s the link for the sprocket

[@Timberwolf35546]

I'm surprised you got it that fast stock.. They definitely had to have given the engine an extra hp or 2. My 2020 with +3 rear sprocket, tunable ecu, ram air intake and cheap exhaust tops out at 73mph downhill.. At 6'2" 205lb I can put on the cruise control bungee and no hand cruise at 56mph+ depending on wind. On these underpowered bikes going for typically acceleration heavy sprocket setups help them get up to a more decent speed. Before I modded my grom I was lucky to get over 45mph.

[@TimeMachinesATVs]

The 5th gear seems to be all on top tbh. Think thats where it came from

[@3pilot]

That’s kinda crazy. My stock Grom does 55 no prob. Fastest I’ve gotten it with a good tailwind was 73

[@shroomiestshroom3655]

@@3pilot yeah they seem to differ quite a bit from factory, can hit 68 without a problem on a flat, wind doesnt matter to much, it cruises at 60mph and is quite stable unless a strong side wind hits.

[@ss_whole]

I wonder if the difference in top speed of stock Groms has to do with the way the owner did the break in?

[@billwaller4094]

You keep saying all these other bikes have more torque, every single one of them have bigger engines? Duh but you're right about dropping to 14 teeth on the front sprocket if you're not getting the red line in 5th gear with the stock sprocket

[@shaynedonnelly374]

Ok let's go boyz grom mods hit 65 you piece of chit lol I hate those guys that say 1st but dammit I'm 1st

[@TimeMachinesATVs]

Lol thanks shayne !

[@Image-X]

Why not add some mods to add power to pull gearing instead of gearing to match less power?

[@TimeMachinesATVs]

Because these are much more reliable as is. Dont need more power. Or top end speed. Or a 7$ sprocket makes the most sense unless you just wanna flex nuts on people for no reason.

[@Image-X]

@@TimeMachinesATVs The reliability is all the same with an intake, exhaust, and a tune. The bike runs better, stronger, cooler, and the power to gearing ratio is as should be. You were complaining about 5th gear, weren’t you? Choosing to neuter the bike instead doesn’t seem to be the smartest move. Cheapest maybe but that’s the only benefit. Don’t wanna go 70mph? Then let off the throttle.

[@TimeMachinesATVs]

lol thanks. You have a grom go do whatever ya want with it. Sorry you’ve put some much effort into this.

[@Image-X]

@@TimeMachinesATVs Enjoy your EPA choked engine. 👌 and sprocket.

[@Hanky_Bannist8r]

Cruising and riding wheelies are what Groms are all about anyway. Going any faster than 50 on one seems like wiping before you poop it just makes no dang sense.

[@TimeMachinesATVs]

Lmfao thanks thomas

[@dreskullteamgrippaz9482]

You change gear to early

[@CharlieSolis]

Nice video! I would HIGHLY suggest doing a different change over. Stock is 15f/38b ~2.5333. If you want the top speed, instead of going up to the 16f/38b ~2.375 or 17f/38b ~2.2353 go with a 13f/31b ~2.3846 or 14f/31b ~2.2142. What this does is it drastically decreases the radius of the rear sprocket and also eliminates a bunch of extra mass out of it from the stock sprocket. Not to mention you decrease the chain link by 4 links. All of this reduces the rotational mass of the drivetrain which will give you a slightly bit more torque to the wheel because it’s not given up to just spinning the drivetrain mass. But this also gives you a taller gear stack at the same time. Personally I like it much better for cruising around town specially because 1st gear is so dang short in the stock set up. I’m 210lbs without gear. Just FYI and I GPS’d my top speed at 70mph. You have to remember though the Speedo sensor is in the trans so if you want your dash to read right you have to get the speedo healer. If you do the higher gear ratio (14f/38b) your odometer will read you stacking on miles faster than you actually are. And if you do the lower gear ratio you will drive more miles than the odometer actually reads. But if you want to be able to get up to the higher speeds you have to be able to use fifth gear in its torque and power band 5500-9000rpm. But to do that you have to use ALL of 4th gear. Like really pin 4th gear to the top so when you shift into 5th gear you’re RPMs are still high enough to be able to use the power/torque band of the engine at those tops speeds. With the change over I did to the higher speed gear change I can cruise around all day at 55-65 and still have quite a bit of “pull” to accelerate because it’s in the power band of the engine. What Honda did with the 5th gear is they really made it an overspeed gear. If I remember correctly Honda made 1st gear really short so the junk from 1st to 2nd is small, but then the jump from 2nd to 3rd and 3rd to 4th is pretty normal to the old groms. But then the jump from 4th to 5th is really large. Honda was trying to give the higher speeds with a lower rpm, because everyone had to just red line 4th in the old ones, but do it without sacrificing the classical grom “shoot around town” feel to it at the low end.

[@CharlieSolis]

This goes through and explains it a little better and a lot of questions are answered in the comments section too. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ioCul358Z7SdjNE
