I normally order the Moto moto magazines from Japan that is based on mini bike modding (monkey,dax,monkey R, chaly etc) and on this issue it seems like they have a lot of upcoming goodies for the Grom.

For starters, the rumored Kitaco kit in the beginning will be a 133cc kit and they have it out in the Japanese market already. They are also developing a 164 and 181cc big bore kit as well.

Takegawa, a very well known minibike big bore kit manufacture also has a 143cc kit that they are releasing soon as well. Their stuff is top of the line so expect to pay top dollars for your bang.

Lastly the interesting thing is there seems to be a company developing new forks for the GROM. Or it could be modified forks I am not 100% sure. But here you go.

Awesome news!! On a side note, that fat wheel kit looks silly and slow... lol

you should see some of the truly funny fat tire kits people put on their monkey. Someone has a 6.0J wide tire on the monkey. it has a certain look that works though

Would be a bit more interesting if I knew how to read Japanese. Does it say when we will see these kits offered in North America?

I have to get my girlfriend to translate it for me but she won't let me get grom until I'm done with my car loan by April.

it actually looks pretty stupid with the madly oversized tires.

 

[Big Chris]

fat tire kits will be for squids

Come tax return season, some serious rebuilding is going to happen. And bet the US market for parts will be thriving.

I like the fat tires.Fat on back,stock on front or fat front and rear offroad tires.

Whats the point of going for the oversized tires? Apart from styling?

i think my dampening in the front forks are gone, and my bike has like 300 miles.
