not yet, would love to learn. any tips for wheelies/stoppies?

The grom doesn't have the power to pull itself up past 10 mph, and the slower you go the less stable it is due to the fact that all the weight is forward and low, so I try to be right around the 7 or 8 mph mark when I give her the ol' yank and spank.

Once its up and stable the center of balance is uncomfortably high so you really have to stand it up to pack the wheel for any amount of distance... I hit second gear as soon as I get the initial pop stable and I can get some good half mile wheelies at about 35 mph.

Guess I'll just stick to riding mine. I would loop it for sure.

The 2014 Honda Grom is equipped with a hydraulic disk brake, which can prevent that from happening.
