So any bigger engine you can throw in one of these? Or any way to get some more power out of it? Would be awesome if you could get it to do 80mph at least so it could be taken on the highway.

I want one, but if i cant hit the highway with it its kind of pointless. lol

There's no bolt-in. Bore kits will help, as will pipe, computer mods.

Hmm. I wonder how the engine mount points relate to a CT70 (Trail 70), or some other common engine configuration.

You could make a pit bike motor fit with some modifications, with something like a yx150 it would fly. I have a yx140 in a homemade shifter kart and they are surprisingly good motors.

something like this?

It is pretty cool that this little thing is fuel injected. I guess otherwise it is a similar motor to what they have offered for ages.

Someone stuff a big ole motor in it

E-start, better head:
I've done a 209cc version that moved a CT70 real nicely.

One would either have to add the additional trigger bumps on the flywheel, sensors for O2, temp, etc for the EFI, or retrograde to carburetion.

A big carbureted motor would be pretty sweet though...

Don't think I would want to give up the FI. Just modify it for more flow.

Anyone offer a big bore kit yet?

Yes there are a few threads about it.

I'd love to see it with more power, 2 stroke would be cool just for fun.

 

[Toallhisdoom]

Yeaaa! I wanna be able to at least do 80. 100mph would be sweeeet! lol

 

[Mikenken]

And carry a passenger and still have some nut would be nice!

Like this one?
It's a 2010 250 ninja with a worked 350cc Yamaha Banshee ATV engine. It's not 100% complete, but I did ride the Tail of the Dragon with it!! I bet the Grom would be wicked with a 125 or 250cc 2 stroke single from a dirt bike!!

Gearing change will be cheaper and more effective, why even think about swaps when you've yet to even ride it?

 

[Vintage Smoke]

Why not?

I bought the Ninja for the sole purpose of swapping out the engine. It was/is a fun project and is a BLAST to ride!!

Thats different, Ninja is a Kawi. You've gotta swap engines on those to even start it, let alone ride it.
The Grom is a Honda, no need to even own tools
