    I toured Wales a couple of weeks ago on my KTM1290, but while I was there I actually thought I’d have had more fun on my Grom!
    Great video!!!

    This is awesome guys 😎😎 watched both vids I actually live in Aberdeen and planning a trip around the coast on my zontes zt125-u1 as I've had it 2 and half yrs now and it's proving the test of time so far touch wood, so I think it needs to prove it's worthiness on a long run after seeing a few of monkeys doing it 👌👌 gave me a confidence boost for sure, take care guys and can't wait for the other vids 😎😎

    Fantastic mate love it , I've got 2 groms both modified , ive just returned from Portugal back home in brum should have gone on my aprilla tuono factory but got worried about reliability so I went on my Honda adv 350 absolutely brilliant scooter to tour on , in the picos mountains there was a yellow Honda grom probably 2015 fully loaded with kit and he travelled from Italy , it just goes to show you don't need a big bike to travel big distances, but I did miss my aprillas power ❤ subscribed after this 😉

      The Honda groms are awesome, there’s so much you can do on the smaller bikes. We like the big bikes to but do like a challenge! Portugal is on the todo list. The next trip will be Italy and Switzerland next month. Cheers for the support 👍 would love to see your groms!

    Always found with the tiny lower powered bikes that aerodynamics were paramount, especially at the higher speeds. A front screen makes a world of difference. No mirrors at all isnt cool. Good luck with the trip.

    • @carbonairpitbikes
      @carbonairpitbikes  10 днів тому

      Amazing how much the wind holds you back. The wind tuck really helps , just not your back! A screen is a good idea too!

    Loving this. I’ve just got my monkey and tragically hasn’t left the garage yet. Though I wouldn’t have thought it would be up for such a grand tour. This has changed my thinking. Question being what mods have you done to the performance if any? Would a stocker survive such an adventure?

    • @carbonairpitbikes
      @carbonairpitbikes  3 дні тому

      @@InTheLockerRoom these monkeys are so capable! We have changed intake induction to let them breath and have changed the exhausts to match the flow in and out. Sprockets are something to change top end or acceleration. A stock monkey will always be the most reliable, just nice to unlock a bit of power and good to be heard with the bigger pipes being on such small bikes. Get yours out and find your adventure!!

    *10:25** Don't be hogging the centre line on right hand bends, get to the left to give a longer view. There's always a bellend coming the other way. You've got restricted view to start with on a bike so low to the ground.*
