Kronik Racing Boom Vader $1199 OTD
It is not often those of us in California can take advantage of low-cost Chinese bikes, but here is a good deal! Read the fine print as it is meant to be a cash sale as credit/debit/paypal adds 6%. This sale includes California registration and sales tax which is what makes it a good deal. This ad is in the local L.A. Craigslist, so not sure if they will ship these bikes. Couldn't hurt to call them...

- I'd just like to say Kronik Racing has been so helpful to me for sorting out parts both stock and upgrades for my own Vader, these guys are genuinely knowledgeable about these bikes and are enthusiastic about them, they aren't "just selling them".
Even when i needed something they didn't themselves carry, they went out of their way to find a source or the answer to a question and got back to me , every time. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone and everyone when it comes to anything Vader or other Grom Clone related ,these guys are the real deal, think of them as the CSC for Vaders.

I agree with everyone its a great deal--I can't remember if I had to pay those taxes for orderong it out of state on my debit card...Anyhow I got my Vader from them shipped across the country to CT a month or two ago and it arrived on time in perfect shape. They are also very knowledgaeble with performance parts and OEM replacement parts. I would definitley buy form www.KronikRacing.com again!

I bought my Vader from Venom Motorsports , and I stand by them being a good Dealer /Supplier for stock bikes and honoring Warranty issues. However, Venoms offering of Performance parts is rather limited ( which i understand ) and this is just not their focus .
Kronik on the other hand, while certainly selling stock Vaders / Boom125's., are active in the aftermarket parts arena and particularly into as their name suggests, Racing applications. ,so they have a wealth of knowledge on non-stock upgrade parts from brake pads to clutch springs to carbs and shocks ,as well as technical knowledge on installs / disassembly /reassembly procedures etc. My only regret about Kronik Racing is they are located in CALI and I am in FLA., so I can not support them as much as I would were I in their actual area ,but I have and will continue to buy parts from and seek advice /info from them in the future.

Just looked at Kronik's site and noticed 2 things.
1. They are advertising SSR stuff again. I thought they broke up? 2. The Boom RETRO 125 is really cool. It's like a classy grown up version of the Vader! http://www.kronikracing.com/-Boom-RETRO-125_p_423.html

I saw this on Craigslist but it's expired- looks like it only applied to Vegas customers. Maybe Kronik will run another special on the Boom Retro. I might have to go see one in person.

If i could find analog gauges to replace my digital speedo / tach on my Vader, I'd buy them / it in a heartbeat. I detest the electronic read outs, they are hard to see and read in bright sunlight where analogs are not .New is not always better and a gauge i can't read is no good to me , i dont care if you can change it to six colors , i just want to be able to see the damn thing .

To each their own--which is maybe why we aren't living in a country with one type of motorcyle (thank God for that!) that has no available mods, kind of like when the communists ruled one of their downfalls was the communist governments weren't/aren't anywhere as good as businesses are in capitalism at getting the people exactly what they wanted/needed and when they needed it--the "joke" was they couldn't even get their citizens toilet paper.---At least that's some of what I was taught in off the cuff coments in the lower level college economics, business, marketing and sociology classes by a handful of different professors, a couple of whom had visited Russia when it was the USSR and one had also visited Cuba under Castro decades ago among other places they had visited--although we didn't really focus on the topic of communist countries and what they were like at all and Im probably way off topic here but it just made me think of those few moments in those classes for whatever reason
