Grom Forks installed

Whisky · 09-14-2019, 09:44 PM

That was so easy. 20 minutes tops and the Grom forks in there stock form are better then the clone forks, I didn't think they would be at 1st. I will up grade them at some point though.

I gotta measure like you said. I want better forks too.

Could you elaborate a little on the upgrade , be nice to know if you swapped brake caliper / rotor from Grom or used stuck one, wheel / fender, etc .

I've been dying for this. Waiting to find an affordable donor that doesn't cost more than my whole bike,....

Currently I'm still using the stock calipers, ( Grom calipers not installed yet) rotors are EBC, ordered for a Grom, wheels are stock, fender stock, Grom forks do not have the stopper for the clone speed sensor but when u tighten axle it holds sensor in place. Fork mounting point measurements are top triple tree-41mm bottom triple tree -45mm

More like "Mr. Goes To The Local Food Pantry Cause He Spent The Grocery Money On Mods

I can not add anything more to the list. It is limited to 500 characters. Using HTML to change the font took up some of the characters too.

Probably will need to start using abbreviations.

Can't wait to get some grom forks now. Pestering guys on ebay to come off their high $$$. Sometimes you find somebody who'll give you a break.

Whisky · 09-18-2019, 10:55 AM

If u see a pair for around 250. I would grab them

cbrfxr67 · 09-18-2019, 03:58 PM

Closest I found was 285 on Ebay so far. Was hoping to find better condition than that listing. Tried some forums, offerup, letgo, CL, but nothing,.... Something'll turn up hopefully

Can I ask what year grom forks you went with? I wonder if they're all the same or 14-15 different from 16,17,18,....

Try Facebook Marketplace. I find all kind of goodies on there. I picked up a set of 4 never used take off ATV tires and rims for $100. I just search my area and found all kinds of Grom parts but no forks.

Good tip but bad idea for me. I run across too many bikes I would like to buy.
