Funny cause I keep a grey bandanna tied in the same spot on the left side in case I have too fool with something during a ride and my hands get greasy 😅
I am guessing you completely swapped the cylinder head. And the valve clearances were known to be in spec before, yes? It makes sense if you were trying to keep the vid as short as you could. i get that. When I do mine I will manually adjust the valve lash while I am in there with the timing plugs out, just to be thorough. It adds about 10 minutes to the job. I have never yet needed to adjust the valves on any of my groms because they went out of spec. No surprise. It is a Honda. And there are millions in existence. Too convenient to set it while younare already in there. Then you can ignore it until the piston needs to be replaced again.😊
Just drain the oil its like $6 a quart lol but if you really need to lay the bike on its side. You still need to oil up the cylinder and piston so you need clean oil for that.
Excellent video! Detailed where it needs to be. Are you running stock sprocket 15/38 with stock exhaust with cam/intake? I am leaning toward an ecu flash / S1 cam / chimera intake (stock exhaust) for my build. Should be stealthy with a little more on the highway.
I never tourqe anything, impact gun all the way, but when you ugga duggad the cam bolts, i nearly died! one ugga dugga to much and boom! snapped/stripped head bolt...
I just pick my 2022 up 3 weeks ago…It’s 100% stock and I’m hitting 72mph (I’m 135 Wet) I can’t even image my weight on your bike I bet you I would be hitting high 70s maybe even break 80
That's moving for having a big man on the bike. I suspect with a bigger jug and a 4v head, that thing would be angry! I can't wait to get my hands on one of these guys.
The grom's valve clearances are listed on the sticker on the clutch side swingarm. IN 0.08 +/- 0.02mm , EX 0.20 +/- 0.02mm (cold). You were way off on the exhaust valve.
so much wrong with this vid, it should be called how to improperly install cam in a 2022 grom. you bang the cam down on the metal lift/bench, should have lined marks up BEFORE takin things apart, should have used assembly lube on lobes, no torque specs used upon reassembly, but hey it ran right? performance does seem impressive from what I have seen from stockers on the top end, how does it feel on the bottom end? still as strong as stock or a little spongier on the bottom end but makes up fast in mid/top end?
Thanks for the comment bill really helps the ratings!!! Sorry you don’t like my video maybe you should go make your own version and save the masses from these critical mistakes that are still operating without flaw as are my many other happy customers bikes I’ve built. You have your way i have mine🤘🏻
@@dfwgromshop5622 or maybe you can learn to do it properly. stuff that gets less then 1500 miles a year won't show your mistakes anytime soon, so your safe until the word gets out. Noobs have to start someplace though, good luck to ya lil buddy.
