Is that the exhaust, or a shoelace hanging down.

LR, looking forward of you posting photos of your new Monkey on Independence Pass!

lol, maybe not! I doubt the little simian even makes it out of my neighborhood! But that would be something!
I wanted a Grom a soon as they came out so I took one for a test ride. I didn’t get one then but have always liked the idea of them. When Kawi came out with the Z125 I liked the look of it more than the Grom. I rode mini bikes as a kid and have recently become interested in those again so last week I picked up a new Z. It’s a street legal minibike. Love it.

thats me, lol. Ive had it over 90 3 times actually. doing some work on it to crack 100 now. + a bunch of suspension upgrades etc.
they are good stock, don't get me wrong. But i bought mine to play with and have fun wrenching on as well. they are a hell of a lot more competent than a lot of people give them credit for. 
as an fyi, the seat/peg/bar triangle is the same as a ktm 390 duke. i know, i had one. so, they are actually made for adults. (sort of.. lol)

Yea, I'm only 5'6" and it fits me fine. The only thing I changed was the seat as the stock one was pushing me into the tank. I'd be happy with another 10mph but don't want to spend all that $$$$ on mods when I can just jump on my CB if I want to go fast.
