  • If you want a grom but don’t wanna pay a lot check this thing out on amazon. Perfect for engine swaps or just to save money and still have a “grom.” My friend got this and it shipped to his door in 2 days! It’s not perfect and has some problems but it’s a blast for 1200 bucks. Let’s just say this is the type of thing you want if your gonna heavily modify/engine swap it because it’s such a cheap bike.

    Take as many of the bolts out that you can get to and put them back in with lock tight on them. Many will be lose. Put on a 17 tooth front sprocket. Check tire pressure and set at 20 in rear and 15-18 up front.Change oil! Pull off carb and add shims under throttle valve needle to lift it 1 mm . These changes will make a BIG difference.

      You shouldnt have to shim the throttle valve it should have an adjustment screw. Just turn the idle up some. As for the rest yes good idea on any new China bike.

    • @davidwhitacre534
      @davidwhitacre534 4 года назад +12

      The adjustment screw is an "idle fuel/air adjustment"....it does nothing beyond about 1/8th throttle. Shimming the needle adds more fuel in the 1/8th to about 3/4 throttle opening....and then the main jet begins to have complete control over the fuel/air mix. Shimming the needle is a common fix for the bikes that run very lean at light throttle settings.

    • @TheShadow2056
      @TheShadow2056 4 года назад +3

      @@davidwhitacre534 there are 2 screws on these one for idle adjustment and 1 for fuel/air mix. All he needs to do is turn the idle a tad and his problem is solved. Unless they have it super lean from the factory. In that case i would be calling the company.

  • @IZylusI
    @IZylusI 4 года назад +32

    You may have the answer now, but because it does have a carb, there's a choke lever on the left handle which you pull all the way in, start the bike, and let it chill for a few minutes. It needs to warm up before it can run smoothly. The idle adjustment I'd like to guess is on the left side of the engine. What you were playing with was the fuel petcock...
    I'd like to believe that it could be a good enough bike for just getting around if you don't care about longevity, but you should probably learn how to start it before you ride it...

It’s a toy and full of surprises, but if you have a cheap good mechanic .. you can make it work . Wheelies only got better after the mods. But the transmission box kinda sucks, I know what it is but I think I broke the pieces off mine cuz I haven’t had trouble shifting in a while; it doesn’t shift on a wheelie like a Honda or real bike. That’s what keeps me from good wheelies ... other than that, it’s good after you fix everything that’s gonna break

    I was thinking about getting one but I just kept saving up.. and kept my eye on craigslist 3-4 times a week and then when I was getting close to around 2k I started looking daily.. saved up to around 2500 then found one for 2k.. I shoulda started lower dude said ok right when I offer 2k he had it listed for 2500. I also found someone who had 2 so I prob coulda got it for 1700... but ya even if do a swap.. get a used grom.. you know all the parts are gonna be better then a Chinese one. the trick for the swap though.. you can get a salvage grom for even cheaper.. most the ones I saw only had the starter switchs missing for around 1500 or less. then save on the swap by going to junk yards finding a harness and engine on the super cheap.. or even ask around for people if they know anyone wrecked a bike with a good engine and harness still.. the labor is the one that adds up. so if you do it yourself its cheap but might take long.. if you pay for it that's where most the money comes from swap.. and don't buy a bike just to take its engine because you will get ripped. though if you got the cash do what you want. still cool and better then nothing. have fun.

      Some people can't afford the best. The bike is just fine as a budget bike if you check everything and break it in right and not try riding wheelies or hard racing with it. Those bikes are to get you where your going and not stunt bikes.But these two idiots are going to get killed on it or hurt some family thats out on a drive.They need to sit in a corner and bang on a steel ball with a rubber mallot.

    I bought mine last week ..It’s fun to ride he probably put cheap gas in it.Put 91 🤔 2 to 3$ will fill it up and u get over a hundred miles.And just like a bike from Walmart I have to tighten everything .i put over a 100miles the first day and guess what I’ve never ridden a motorcycle in my life.Self taught.I never had my Grom next to a real Grom to compare the looks.

    Ace video lads, Chinese bikes are sometimes good these days especially if you look after em. Does this have a make and model? Amazon in the UK doesn't have motorbikes on it.
