This little Grom Clone was a test platform to determine what percentage or, rather if,
I wanted a dual sport bike again.. Ans yes!! but this small rake and 12" tires just doesn't cut it for me.
Offroad it is easy to bury the front wheel of which I am not fond of doing that classic "flying W" .. I broke my collarbone and collapsed lung from the impact of the front wheel wash out. I take her out occasionally still but, this is not for me as I avoid harder trails as mud, deep ruts and rocks overtax this small wheel diameter.
Next bike.. will be more dual purpose, full size wheels and capable to head off road on a bike that doesn't require a lift to mount for this vertically challenge older rider.
