cant you just use two of the flywheel bolts and wedge a long bar in them to secure the crank? if you've got a good drill you could probably make your own holding tool pretty easily.

It took a 1/2" impact gun with a 22mm torque socket and my crank bolt came right off
-
I could try all of those. But I'm busy crashing my grom lol
98 miles on it
-
Special order parts from toys r us, huh?
-
Haha. Sure. Had to ride it home in first gear because I bent the shifter under the case.
Got home. Bent it back. Proceeded to ride.
How's that triumph coming along..............
-
I know the feeling. That happened on the buell when I hit some gravel and slowly laid the bike down. Bent it back with some vice grips and off I went.
Triumph is same old same old. Took it out for a nice ride today tho. Just gotta baby it in 1st & 2nd until I get to working on it.

Does it just need a new clutch? Because that's cake bassface
-
Most likely its internal gearbox issues or the detent arm behind clutch. I just gotta get inside the clutch cover to check the easy stuff first. If its the dogs inside gearbox, that'll require engine removal to split the case.
-
Sell it. Buy a grom. Thank me later. It puts a limit on what size chicks you can bring home
-
Ill pass. I dont need training wheels
-
^lol
Having ridden a lot of stuff. I can say the grom is almost more fun than my Supermoto was. And sport bikes cannot hold a candle to the amount of fun that you can have on a supermoto.
Don't knock it till you try it.
-
Agree to disagree my friend.
What constitutes as fun is in the eye of the beholder. -
If there's one thing we agree on, it's that we will never agree on bikes hahah.
-
Haha. I was only going about 25-30ish. I was riding with another buddy who has a grom and we were just practicing around on some wide industrial roads.
I was honestly more worried about the bike so I white knuckled that thing when I slid.
I'm going to buy a 12 bar and crash cage for this thing shortly. Because I will crash it some more for sure.

straight-faced, Mr. Serious, blacked-out-600-rider takes a grom off-road. "yeah... it's small and it's cute." The dialog cracks me up.
no offense, but, it would have been faster, and more fun, to ride my bike (read: bicycle) across that field than whatever that was.
