I subscribed to you because of what you said about today’s society when ever faced with a challenge they just give up.props man.I plan on getting one and don’t mind working on this thing at all
I appreciate that brotha! This bike taught me how to work on bikes. It gave me the confidence to install a bazzaz ZFI on my GSXR and it worked out perfect. Everyone goes in over their heads, start small, build up your knowledge, and then you can move onto bigger projects.
I really appreciate this. I'm completely new to bikes. I'm going to be getting one of these for sure. I'm actually excited to get something that I'll have to learn to work on, and can't really go too fast on. Im the type to need to learn before I graduate to prevent overcommitting. At first I was scared of a big bike, now I'm super excited for my little clone and don't have a lick of mechanical experience.
Due to certain health reasons and surgeries, I am going to get rid of my 700lb Harley, and still want something to get around town on. This looks perfect. I have been looking at the hellcat as well. The Boom Vader’s seem to be more readily available. I’m guessing the aftermarket parts are all about the same.
I wanna get one as my everything bike but eventually I wanna swap out the engine for a 300cc engine so I can go on the freeway with it safely. Idrc if it's a clone or not cuz I don't mind getting my hands dirty.
@@briizcustoms9543 I've seen videos where people have swapped out the engines on theirs for bigger cc's. They had to mod the frame a bit but it worked.
Great vid bro , ur right I haven't found any vid to change out the carb on the vader . I still have my new carb that i ordered to replace the OEM. But I'm gonna try to do it myself . Keep up the vids bro! love it ! Be safe !
I laugh when I see people deck out the clone with OG grom parts like that’s going to up the value guess what it’s not … like my Vader for what it is cheap fun
The price tag seems pretty good and is a huge pro for the clone but I would go with the Honda Grom for my stunt stuff... But as a city cruiser I would like to go with the clone 😅👍 Enjoy the bike life buddy
hey my bike is the same as this but when i put it in gear in netrual it switches out of nowhere to 1 or 2 how can i fix this problem u think its the fuse ?
Every video I have ever seen, all these Grom clones have some major issues. Whether it be a leak, missing bolts, etc. Idk if it’s worth the $1100. I’ve never rode a bike, but wanted one.
@@darkside7802 if you upgrade some minor things when you get the bike you can avoid bigger issues. I have a “boom Vader mods” video that I did which replaced likely issues as soon as I got the bike
So wait i have a question, i recently got the same exact thing, why do i have to do those modifications? I'll definatly do it if absolutely nessasary? But what would happen if i dont? Will the engine blow or something big like that or will it be like low on power?
So if you don’t do the mods you’ll just run into reliability issues. The bike may not start due to a dead battery, the response of the bike won’t be good with the stock carb, and the bike may randomly shut off if you don’t do the evap delete. I have videos on doing all of the mods so you could see how they’re done. If nothing else I’d at least do a new battery
Congrats man I love mine. Just took it on a 150 mile trip and it was fine. Make sure everything is Loc tite and change the carb kit and the battery and you should be good to go
W video, I was looking at a condor 150cc and I don’t think the carburetor is swappable? I might be tweaking maybe I misread it. But what would you recommend if that’s the case.
Hey man I want one of these but I can only get the 50cc Bc I’m 16 but I don’t mind investing money into it so it could push up to 50mph what do you think I should do to it ?
I saw a bike that looked exactly like the boom vader,but was 50cc.Id buy it and then buy a 125cc engine and swap it later.The engine swaps are pretty easy and there are videos that walk you through it.First I'd just get comfortable riding with the 50cc though.
Might want to just buy the 125.....by the time you're 18 you'll have a bunch of mods done to it and you can hop on it right away without dealing with any engine swaps or buying another clone
How was the shifting with the foot gear shifter and the clutch lever? Heard alot of people say its very stiff and hard to shift into 2nd gear. Some people say its a break in period and others say its something you have to loosen or something like that. Ordered a 2023 Boom Vader and its shipping monday!
It is very stiff, I have 4,000 miles on mine and it’s still pretty stiff. You may have to loosen it but for the price it’s such a great value of a bike
@@BrapGenius does it get annoying having to use the clutch to shift alot or hold the clutch in traffic and stuff? Ive seen people lube the clutch parts and stuff and were able to hold the lever with 1 finger but only a handful of videos ive seen people fix that issue.
@@ItsGreg22 I haven’t attempted to mess with it on mine cause I don’t ride it that often (I have 5 bikes to keep the content diverse) so for me it isn’t too bad. However it was my only bike it could get annoying. The shifting is pretty good now after the break in it’s only annoying at lights cause it doesn’t want to go into neutral
You might try some synthetic oil at your next oil change. Had shifting issues on a Kawasaki KLR250, and switching to synth oil flat fixed that problem. Just get motorcycle synthetic oil, as you don't want car oil with "friction modifiers" because those ingredients might destroy your clutch.
must be nice. here in cali people are selling their groms and z125's for 3000-4500 and i am seeing the new groms go for 5k. definitely not spending that kinda cash on a beginner motorcycle that ill likely be replacing with a dual sport anyway
Haha nice that must have been sketchy with these street tires, I was tempted but I wanted to get a few good rides in before I dump it lol! Quick question what main jet are you running and what slot do you the slide needle positioned? I threw a vm22 on it got it running decent but I think I have to mess around with air/fuel screw and idle screw.
@@gwkknives it actually wasn’t that sketchy I was surprised. I have a vm22 kit as well I’m running the stock jets it came with, it’s a 95 main I believe
@@BrapGenius OK thank you I ride two-stroke scooters (mod to go fast) have lots of carburetors but the attachments obviously are key (and size) Should I upgrade to the carbon exhaust? Thank you for your time and making the video I will go back and watch your other videos I apologize if I'm asking questions that you've already answered
I'd imagine the Navi is more reliable, but dealerships in my area long tacking on $500+ in dealership fees. you're likely going to be paying closer to $2300. i hate dealerships so the clone is the route im going
Well for dirt a Chinese enduro for sure but in general I feel like these last longer because the Chinese quality won’t hold up as well from taking a beating in the woods
@@Littleevil9975 the reviews are usually for parts from what I’ve heard. Their customer service I think is hard to contact but as long as they send the bike and title you should be good
😂😂I’ve had one for a little over a year and you really just need to change the carb and get rid of the original air filter and you got a cool little bike and yes after about a month you’ll completely take it apparently and but it back. So out the box it’s a piece of crap that is a pain to start but after that it’s pretty good and would recommend.

Glad you like them!! These are really fun bikes man

Thanks man imma buy one and this information is great. I am debating it really hard tho. Imma sub and keep up to date on everything.

Good advice. I plan on buying one, but Im not sure which version yet.It's down to the Venom version, Ssr razkull,or lifan kp mini
They’re all pretty much the same mechanically, go with whatever you like the most
Seems like the Razkull has disappeared?
Do you want driveline for the ?
What size jets did you run on yours? I’m doing 35 pilot and 105 main but I think it still needs some tuning.

Honda Navi or this? Which one is worth it to buy?

Carb kit
Hey how many miles were you able to get out of it
