Yasss do 2 minute mod tuesdays!! They’re super helpful!

[@AdventureDaily]

Sounds like a plan👍🏻😎

[@thaejashby972]

I want your dog 🐕👀

[@verifiednobody7836]

What about for long stoppies doesn't that become a problem now?

[@codyhelvik1971]

Only a problem if your stoppie is lasting for more than like ten seconds

[@krazed0451]

You're also not likely to be revving the tits off the bike while in a stoppie ;-)

[@tommyclement7822]

I’m actually jealous that you can not only pop it up in 2nd, but shift while in a wheelie. I try so hard on my grom to get the front wheel up in 2nd, but I can’t. Btw Life is like a box of chocolates. Love the video man. Keep up the great work.

[@AdventureDaily]

Practice, practice, and.. more practice, you will get them eventually! And lol yes it is😂 Thanks for the comment Tommy!

[@vondrz1391]

Tommy Clement quick shift. You don’t need a clutch to shift a motorcycle. Just learned it on my drz

[@AdventureDaily]

Yeah I wouldn't recommend that. Jolts the bike too much and if your break control isn't up to par you will end up looping it.

[@vondrz1391]

Attention Deficit yea I’m not sure about the grom. The one grom I rode didn’t have any engine braking which I felt would sketchy for wheelie especially with shifting mid wheelie. Dizzier shifts smooth

[@tommyclement7822]

Vondrz last time I tried quick shifting on my grom I went down lol. Maybe it was just because I wasn’t at the right rpm and then I looped. Thank you for your input! I appreciate it.

[@firedog5339]

Do the modification videos! Just picked up my Grom a couple days ago. 2015 with 450 miles on it. Mint condition! Gonna be a blast.

[@AdventureDaily]

Definitely will! Congrats on the Grom that was a great find! I already have 3000+ on my 2018.

[@bernieburnstein5590]

You just poured your oil in no funnel u are a real. Legend

[@philbuilds116]

It's a Honda. It doesn't need much oil. I've seen their 125s go without oil for a day+. I know, because I was the moron who didn't check the level on my quad. Still going 20 years after.

[@AdventureDaily]

Wow that is crazy lol. Honda definitely knows what they are doing with their engines.

[@philbuilds116]

Attention Deficit that 1987 trx-125 has been through hell. Not only has it been a learner for me and my 10+ cousins, it slid off a cliff, hauled logs, cut new trails and got an oil change once every decade or so. Between that and my Nighthawk, neither should run right. I'm sold on Honda.

[@AdventureDaily]

That is awesome! Amazing really.

[@th3s41nt]

How about leaning the bike to the left in a corner? Wouldn’t all the oil fall to the left of the motor? I installed this on my Grom last night and I’m just over thinking it I guess

[@AdventureDaily]

That's definitely possible but I'm not entirely sure, you would have to ask the experts😂

[@BDcumminsdiesel]

I think that oil pump is a great idea and I think the little short mod video will be cool but your killing me I want to know if I right about the other bike lol 😂

[@AdventureDaily]

I actually just had a friend roast his Grom so I'm super glad I got the pump on. You might just be..😂

[@dylanharper9476]

What rear set is that?

[@danielmcgrath9369]

Your videos are the best,always helpful.I have a 2017 Grom,SCProducts stainless low mount exhaust system,airbox mods,fork travel longer after winding sharft nuts up.I cut my rear guard off and it look factory,real trick.I have done many other mods also,not a fast bike,but a lot of fun.

[@AdventureDaily]

Thank you Daniel! Sounds like an awesome build.

[@claytons8263]

Mod vids thumbs up

[@yotaartztv5580]

About time lmfao.....do a video called Wheelie Wednesdays do a montage of all the resent wheelie videos

[@AdventureDaily]

I know right😅 And great idea man thanks!

[@pazzmcwhy9295]

What is the purple plate called? What company built it? Also.. when the dog barked you should have made him say "don't forget to like and subscribe" lol

[@AdventureDaily]

They are custom rearsets from zzcustomdesigns.com ! And good idea lol I'll have to do that in the future.

[@kowalikdv]

Love the video!!! Very helpful and I'm super stoked to do this mod after I figure out how to wheelie lol🏍

[@AdventureDaily]

Thank you! I'm glad it helped and you will get there just keep practicing👍🏻

[@cykablyat8513]

I need to do something similar on my Ninja EX300. Not sure if it's the oil pickup or oil position sensor when when hitting around 11'clock bike begins boggin/loosing power, forcing the front end down. It feels like hitting a foot brake hard, no matter the throttle response it's not enough. It also leaks oil out of (PCV valve?) through air intake and gets the filter, drips down on swingarm and motor

[@Theweekiwachie]

Another great vid. That 'what is life' part got me good

[@AdventureDaily]

Thank you! I had to lol I got a good laugh while reviewing the footage!

[@honda116969]

My bike is completely stock do I still need to take off the side cover to clean the spinner? I change my oil like every 800 1000 Mi or something ridiculous. Thx 4 the help. The guy that worked at my local motorcycle shop worked there for like 20 or 30 years he said Honda motorcycles from the 70s have never had the case cracked open to clean the screen and they were totally fine 40 years later (& they still run)so makes me think I don't need to but advice is appreciated. Thank u👍😎👍

[@mattc420]

Dude. I have exhaust, intake and a few other cosmetics but i cant get mine to wheelie to save my life. I mean i can get one to go up for a second but its goes right back down. And a wheelie in 3rd gear???? 😂😂 Hahaha yeah right. Never gonna happen with me. ... Spent 3 hours yesterday trying to figure out why to bike wont go anymore after putting pro tapers on. The clutch cable is streatched out so far it cant disengage. Anyone have any tips on how to mount the clutch without it being towards the middle of the new handlebars?

[@Yakplanet_tv]

What kit do you prefer for the stock engine. I heard 181cc with high rev rpm will blow your motor? I'm hearing to many different motors and finbro is fuckbro brand... Takegawa is only one I see going for.

[@AdventureDaily]

186 a tad rich👍🏻

[@thagnerkuster]

I would like to ask your help for something very important to me. I have the big dream of having grom but it is not sold here in Brazil. I don't know if I could import it here, I don't know if it would be worth it for the high taxes charged, but I need to try something. You got some kind of information for me from the US honda dai where you bought yours. Please help me realize this dream. I would be the happiest owner of the first honda grom in Brazil.

[@Hockeyboy_-hv4dl]

Wheelies for days👌

[@AdventureDaily]

Can’t wait to put some miles in😎

[@yungmar4840]

Hockeyboy13_ 04 👍🏼

[@uglys13racer]

What a beast. You have so much talent. Can't wait to ride with you again! Thank you for the awesome install video!

[@AdventureDaily]

Than you brother!🙏🏻 Y'all are beasts yourselves. Can't wait for the street ride and thank you for the support!

[@Abc-ps9ox]

Did i wheelie for over 1 min, Nothing happend🤷‍♂️

[@MotoMantooth]

Tried to get Zab Fab to do a barter for design/web/illustration work to get one and they didn't even respond lol. I went with Straight Up Pumps instead, cheaper for the same exact thing. $70 for the oem pump, $120 for koso or takegawa. That and a handbrake are otw, standups and loops incoming lol.

[@AdventureDaily]

Bummer man that's lame! And yeah there are plenty of pumps out there I just know these guys personally and the fabricator is actually an engineer so it just gives me a lot of confidence in their product, especially when giving my word to thousands of people. Can't wait to see some lol be safe! And what hand brake setup did you go with?

[@MotoMantooth]

I ended up getting the PSD dual bracket for oem rotor, brembo p34 caliper, magura HC1 13mm. Then a carbon ss line swap for front, back and handbrake. (From Tactical Mindz)

[@AdventureDaily]

Right on man that's legit!

[@g_j_b_o_o_g_e_r420blaze9]

Bought one off of straight up pumps and it’s been a month now . Nothing

[@kanguruzebra5983]

Does it also work on a 2013 grom?

[@AdventureDaily]

Yes!

[@MotoMantooth]

Pumps will fit any year model. I'd go with modded OEM if you have a mostly stock motor, modded Koso/Takegawa if you have a BBK / oil cooler / other major mods.

[@kanguruzebra5983]

MotoMantooth ok thanks

[@MotoMantooth]

no problem homie :)

[@AdventureDaily]

Thanks tooth👊🏻

[@filiplaskovski9993]

What does the spinner do ?? Does it fling oil into places.??

[@mattc420]

I cant even get mine to 45°. I put exhaust on and lost a ton of hp. I gave up.

[@gordonnixon1755]

Do you have to warm your bike up when changing the oil?!?!!🤔

[@AdventureDaily]

Yes! Helps thin it out to drain better.

[@ikeus6857]

As oil is moved thru out the engine. It picks up debris and holds them in suspension. Changing oil cold give the junk a chance to settle where it may not get flushed out when draining the oil

[@KUBBI7488]

i seen groms for sale with 10k miles with out any modes!

[@yungmar4840]

4:54 what is this tool called?

[@AdventureDaily]

Ratchet with an extension and a socket.

[@hellfire08]

Does this bypass the oil screen?

[@reallyoldfart6540]

Life is not farting on your motorcycle, because it might not be gas.

[@AdventureDaily]

I love it😂 Thanks for watching!

[@thecocooreo]

Sweet! worry free wheelies for days!!! Braaap!!!

[@AdventureDaily]

Exactly!! I need to find a nice section of road and see how long I can go.

[@TheLostAdventuress]

Now when you go downhill you'll starve it hahaha

[@adriansamonte38]

I went thru the wedsite. But theres 100$ and 150$ idk the differences, they look the same

[@AdventureDaily]

The Takegawa is an aftermarket pump that is supposed to have more flow I guess so that explains the $150

[@adriansamonte38]

Attention Deficit so which one u got n how do they work

[@AdventureDaily]

I have the $100 one, and watch the video.

[@uglys13racer]

100% correct the takegawa is really only needed if you are big bore but some stock riders still want more oil.

[@ichibangrom9735]

Nice video on the oil pump mod. Thanks. Very informative. And as always Great Wheelys!!! You Rock Bro! Any Grom Mod is good for me.

[@AdventureDaily]

Thank you! I appreciate it man plenty more mods to come!

[@KentwoodWarrior]

Put the stock seat back on?

[@AdventureDaily]

Yes the seat from msx125accessories feels like a brick now.

[@KentwoodWarrior]

Attention Deficit looking to get one but can’t really find any good options other than the Corbin. Is there anything good that isn’t $400? Lol

[@AdventureDaily]

I’m going to go with Seat Concepts soon! I’ll do a video on it of course so you might want to wait until then!

[@josephg4924]

Great vid brother 👍🏻

[@AdventureDaily]

Thank you man😁

[@lockstar0035]

Nice video, I like the sound of having an How To videos every once and a while. Those wheelies where sick.

[@AdventureDaily]

Thank you Phoenix👍🏻 Sounds like a plan then!

[@jessesanden3901]

Lmao wht is life? Funny guy

[@phat56pat]

Wheelies will get smoother if you get less choppy start using the foot brake more just a helpful tip

[@AdventureDaily]

I like chopping lol it's the 2 stroke in me.

[@quinnjim]

The Kawasaki Z125 doesn't have this problem. :)

[@BikingBuddies]

Very easy but sensible mod - just wish the R1 was as easy to work on - mate it takes me like and hour stripping the bike just to get to the engine ha ha ha

[@AdventureDaily]

I feel your pain lol that must be a hassle. I guess that's the price you pay for all of that power!

[@wheeliewonka5064]

Is the takegawa super pump better ?

[@TinaCamacho]

Cool, you aint blown it up so far so i wont worry about mine for a while til i start wheelieing lol. what happened to the loud exhaust? do you like the stealth mode stock one better, i think i do. how many miles you got on yours now? i had my grom since mid april and i have 1300 so far, my screen was clean totally the second time i changed the oil. next time i change the oil im putting on my 14 tooth sprocket as the break in will be done, then WHEELIES FOREVER! LOL

[@AdventureDaily]

I am lucky lol and yes I agree I wouldn't worry about it until you start holding them for long periods of time. Loud exhaust was obnoxious and drew way too much attention😅 Stealth mode for the win. I just hit 3000 miles over the weekend! And awesome you will love the new sprocket. You should post more on your channel!

[@TinaCamacho]

IKR! LOL. it's time for my yearly video. i just been out learning my new grommie and am ready for the first viddy :-)

[@AvrageAndy]

I thought your dog was a bear lol

[@Kawasaki1-m4l]

The thumbs up says it all.

[@TofuProductionCinema]

Easily one of my favorite Grom channels. Keep up the good work!

[@AdventureDaily]

Thank you I really appreciate that! Glad to have you here on the channel.

[@th3s41nt]

The Website says to wait for breakin before installing so when is it safe to install?

[@AdventureDaily]

I wouldn't worry about it but maybe wait for a few hundred miles.

[@car_venom2265]

When is the first oil change/ servíce on the grom I forgot what they said in the dealer. Do u recommend to do it n the dealer or by myself?.

[@AdventureDaily]

First service is recommended at 600 miles! I definitely recommend doing it yourself, check out my video I made on it kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqrYi4uFf5yVnbM

[@mtjunky1353]

Do you have a mod video? If not what bars you rocking? Great vids

[@AdventureDaily]

Sure do! Have a whole playlist! kzbin.info/aero/PLQmNa9wJweSAOyyOWkmLyeyBeYhDd4w0d

[@mxrider2strokebraaap54]

Nice video!🤙 I’m not sure but I believe that motobro his grom blew because he didn’t have this mod

[@AdventureDaily]

Thank you man and yeah he probably did!

[@car_venom2265]

Put some purple sticker to the rim. And yea we want to see more modifications

[@AdventureDaily]

I’m actually going with a matte black and gold color scheme! Getting my rearsets powder coated soon👍🏻 Thanks again man!

[@hollowroom8109]

wat is by braking! i life on the hill

[@AdventureDaily]

???

[@BarnStangz]

Very nice install man! I liked the one shot of the end of the road fade, your production values are always top flight. Maybe over the winter a big bore kit?

[@AdventureDaily]

Thank you brother! I appreciate it, I would love to but not sure if I want to compromise reliability🤔

[@BarnStangz]

True about the reliability part, I didn't think of that. I feel like Honda's are at best when they are left alone for the most part. I'm also glad to see you still keeping it stealthy with the stock exhaust!

[@AdventureDaily]

I agree 100% I will probably leave this one stock.. For now. I have actually convinced a lot of my friends to go back to stock so we started a little movement here lol.

[@gearhead3585]

is that a stock pump with a tube, or is it a high flow pump???

[@AdventureDaily]

Stock pump, they offer the high flow as well👍🏻

[@eungkokhour6499]

Where did you get the Honda wing gold sticker?

[@AdventureDaily]

decaldino.com 👍🏻

[@enriquediaz6208]

[@AdventureDaily]

Thanks man👊🏻

[@goyo69]

What is life! Lol. Life=family

[@AdventureDaily]

Lol exactly!

[@javilara5829]

Very detailed and helpful. LIKED! And if 2 minute mod Tuesday’s or whatever you want to call it then SUBBED!

[@recommendedforyou_]

Do you use lock tite on the bolts for the fuel pump and/or the 3 for the oil spinner? Also do you happen to know the torq spec for the oil pump bolts (9ft lbs?) and the 3 for the oil spinner (7ft lbs?) of all the videos I see people say different things just curious your opinion.. thank you in advance!

[@sparkme123]

@attentiondeficit Props on that around the bend wheelie!!! And yes please on 2 minute mod Tuesday's!!! :D

[@ogkushdagaming161]

awsome video mate your the man we was speaking about this the other week

[@AdventureDaily]

Thank you mate! And I remember👍🏻 I feel way better now that I have one.

[@ctay1071]

Where did you get them rear sets I need then mine are bent to shit lol

[@AdventureDaily]

Check out zzcustomdesigns.com 👍🏻 Super nice guy and quality stuff.

[@Xs395]

Reverted from the dual underbelly exhaust?

[@AdventureDaily]

Yes stealth mode for the win!

[@huzaifaahnaf]

I love your content, keep up the great work, would also recommend you buy a "ssr razkull" and do reviews. lol , cheers.

[@ReadyAsHeWillEverBe]

How does the new oil pump block off the stock/original oil pickup point? It's a hole in the engine case right next to the oil filter screen. That hole doesn't need to be blocked? Please explain

[@AdventureDaily]

You will have to ask the experts on that one. DM instagram.com/zabfabllc 👍🏻

[@ReadyAsHeWillEverBe]

Thanks for the reply! At 45 seconds, I think I see where they blocked a port on the oil pump. Looks like a small plug adjacent to the welded pipe. I'm gonna check with zabfab. Too bad you didn't show a side by side old vs new oil pumps, 20 20 hindsight lol. Killin them wheelies. Like you i'm all foot brake. Rear brake looks stock? Maybe do a vid on how to shift in wheelie?

[@AdventureDaily]

No problem and okay I'm glad you caught that! They really look identical other than the tube. Thank you man a lot of these guys out here are going straight to hand brakes, and yes it is stock, I might just do that!

[@uglys13racer]

You are correct we block off that port inside the pump.

[@nicksoup]

zabfabllc.com site no longer works, anyone know where you can currently buy this oil pump?

[@AJV4L2007]

Just what I needed lol thanks bro ski

[@AdventureDaily]

Of course man thanks for watching!

[@stfdchiefmeyer]

Umm I'm still waiting on the carwash with the brushes!!!!

[@AdventureDaily]

I'm waiting on the people to like it! It should get there eventually!

[@moto_tech_braap_itout9852]

need 77 more likes ima promote the video tonight in the live stream video lol

[@nicky20056]

Did you torque everything

[@AdventureDaily]

Nope! Just by feel. I don't have a service manual but I will get one soon so I can share that with you guys.

[@SlingingLead]

Doggy!!

[@phillipstuart3318]

Nice way to say if you suck at wheelies You don't need this

[@MethanolWarrior712]

1st . keep up the great work!

[@AdventureDaily]

Thank you for the support!👊🏻

[@Botzz28]

What’s the best oil for the 2018 grom ?

[@AdventureDaily]

Cheapest you can find😂

[@Botzz28]

Attention Deficit I found Honda GN4 20w50. Is that ok? Also what’s the deal with synthetic or not ? What oil do you run ?

[@AdventureDaily]

That is a bit thick for a Grom. I recommend 10w30 / 40 depending on your climate. I use Valvoline 4 stroke motorcycle oil 10w40.

[@Botzz28]

Attention Deficit I live in NY so is 30 or 40 better? Thanks

[@AdventureDaily]

10w40 for sure👍🏻

[@caddyinhere12]

I like that wheelie spot man

[@AdventureDaily]

It's a fun one for sure. Not going to be there forever though so we are enjoying it while it lasts👍🏻

[@maxwellrundle1351]

Another great video man and always like the mod videos and cant what for more and thats a good idea

[@AdventureDaily]

Thank you brother! Got a fun video coming out tomorrow Attention Deficit goes Harley..

[@maxwellrundle1351]

Attention Deficit what no way lol

[@AdventureDaily]

[@AdventureDaily]

Nope! I didn't want abs on mine.

[@rikuherlevi9714]

Attention Deficit oh in finland there is no possibilty for no abs if you buy it new :(

[@AdventureDaily]

Yeah I have heard a few people say that, I'm sure there is a way to remove it!

[@averageperson7647]

Yea keeping doing mod video please, I love it ! Grom life for me lol

[@AdventureDaily]

Of course! Plenty more coming! Thanks again.

[@chuckbowen4334]

Man, if you like being on one wheel so much...ride a unicycle. Seriously. So much emphasis on wheelies and very little on the actual joy of riding. Riding a curving road and getting some good lean angels in there are more fun. It feels like you are flying a fighter jet on the ground. Doing a mod to make 15 mile an hour wheelies is...mind-boggling. I don't get it. When I ride on groups...the first person to run into me because he was riding a wheelie is going to get the fight of his life. I'm a Mello fellow but, stupidity, I can't forgive.

[@AdventureDaily]

I have a unicycle actually! One wheel is the best wheel. Wheelies are my thing, they are fun to me, they take skill, talent, and are one of my favorite things about riding. Also harmless to others in most cases. I will never be able to change your mind but that's my opinion and I thank you for watching! I also live in Ohio with flat roads and cornfields😂 We have to keep it entertaining someway.

[@joblessalex]

On my end, going 70 on a 20 and misjudging that one corner that sends you into oncoming traffic is 10x worse. It's a different style of hooliganism. On the one hand, if you put your bike down it'll slide off the road instead of stay in the middle like a wheelie. All up to the rider really.

[@topemeister3000]

Damn, Chuck. You really came to a stunt channel to tell the guy that “Riding a curving road a curving road and getting some good lean angels in there are more fun.” Why is your personal opinion a fact? Why don’t you drag knee into a Mosque and tell the people there that you don’t get it and that they all need to convert to Christianity? You are definitely not a mellow fellow - you’re already looking forward to the imaginary fight you’re gonna have ‘IF’ somebody wheelies into you (WTF?). You came here with an ego. How can you not just let somebody enjoy their thing.

[@yungmar4840]

Can we have more KX footage, what about KX street riding?

[@yungmar4840]

That last wheelie was long You got blocks!

[@AdventureDaily]

Thank you brother and yes I will do that soon!

[@uglys13racer]

Attention Deficit ROC 2018?

[@AdventureDaily]

I wish lol.

[@sportytoes]

I am a bit concerned the end of the pickup tube is not attached to the engine. The thin walled tube is susceptible to flex from the engine vibration and wheelie landing. If I get one i will braze a fitting to it so i can bolt it to the crank case. Fixed on both ends should prevent any possible fatigue fracture from the vibration. Mt dilemma is fitting the free end to the crankcase. Only thing i can think of is to drill a small hole and use a nut and bolt to fix it. I then worry a bit about possible oil leaks or the nut coming loose.Oiling down the back tire would be about as bad as a loose nut banging around inside the engine. Hopefully the part is super overbilt and durable enough to survive the vibration as is. Impossible for me to tell how stout it is just from a video. I reserve judgement.
