OK as some of you already know, Hard Racing is a vendor here with their finger on the pulse of the motorcycling community. They have a number of parts available for the Grom but wanted more. They contacted Driven USA and convinced them they needed to make rear sets and other goodies for the Grom. The owner of Driven is a total gear head motorcycle lover so it did not take much convincing.
But they needed a bike. So I threw myself on the grenade and gave up my Grom for the past two weeks. It has been out at Driven and they and been making prototype parts for it.
I picked it up today. My bike is still completely stock while they produce their first run of parts. Should take 3-4 weeks and then I will go back out there with my bike and we will test fit the final products and right after that they should be for sale.
So.... what are they making specifically for the Grom?
Axles Sliders
Engine Inspection Covers
Oil Fill Plug
Counter Shaft Sprocket Cover
Rear Sprocket Bolts
Rear Sets
If you get a chance to check out their products and especially their rear sets on line you will see they produce nothing but top quality products. While there I picked up a prototype rear set and asked if this is what they were producing for the Grom. His response was yes but the one I was holding was the very first one they made and it was just too big for the Grom.
Guys, I felt like I was holding a billet piece of jewelry in my hand. Not light a flimsy, just small and tight and strong. Lots of adjustability and super clean machining.
These parts are going to be awesome!
