    Flat trackers are cool. Front end swaps look perfect on those style bikes.

    It would be nice if you could fit a 16.5" up front and a 5" wide 17" hoop in the rear

        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

                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.

                      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

                            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. :P 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.

                                  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.

                                    So how many people witnessed this (presumably) hilarious crash of yours? er, what I meant to say is "Gosh! Are you okay?" ;)

                                      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.

                                        no offense, but, it would have been faster, and more fun, to ride my bike (read: bicycle) across that field than whatever that was.
