What a fantastic looking place ! I’m gonna have to make the trip over there.

I like the mirrors on the Kawasaki but overall, I would prefer the Grom.

That thing is a must down in southwest fl its like mx in a sauna down here 😂😂😂

DON'T TAKE THE ROCKS OFF THE TRACK!!!! Part of the course! You gonna start filling in ruts next?

When u try to start but realise u didn’t put the gas on…

Too many people get hurt there

Hey, how does he have his Quadlock mount attached? I'm currently using the clutch mount but I don't like it.

Great video brother wondering if you have rode motobros punta gorda ?keep up the filming 🤙🤙

quick question, tomorrow is my 1st time going to rio bravo or any motor-cross track will they let me ride with no boots and do they have concessions?

Bike I wish I never got rid of. 1974 Kaw 750 H2. 😢 That said, sitting on both being 6.3 is the Z125.

Not a sponsor plug- just trying not to melt :D

SMX 6 v2, super comfy and plenty of ventilation

Is this filmed with the gopro and gooseneck mic you recommend in another video?

What rpm are you running at 60 mph on Z and G? Is there a +1 front, -1 back chain drive gear from Z and G? Any difference?

Either it’s the carb or you got to much back pressure

Wow. Great video. Thank you for being so informative, and educational. Superb video quality

Village has the best night racing in North Texas. Saturday nights are a lot of fun and a lot of people show up. You can see the entire track from anywhere you are viewing it from. We park on the backside and sit in the bed of the truck and hoot and holler at all the racers we know. They also have the MiniX series, which is amazing for young new riders to get to race on one of the best pit bike/mini tracks I've ever seen. It even has start gates, lights and a tower. The main track is also cool. It is one of the few tracks in Texas that actually has elevation change with true step ups and true step downs. But, it has kind of gone downhill the last couple of years. However, they just gave it a make over in June, so it's better now. It is also the only track I've ever been to where you can see a downtown skyline from the track (Fort Worth). That's how close it is to the city. The only thing I don't like about Village is that it is Port a potty only; which is not cool for the ladies.

Nice video mate, thanks. I'm new to the DFW area but Village is on my list of nearby tracks to try out. And yeah, organised practises often mean limited riding time as they try to keep it safe for everybody - it used to annoy me but ultimately, tracks where they care that much about the people who ride them tend to be better run, maintained and now I get it, and appreciate that. But definitely a factor if you are travelling more than an hour to get there...... Gonna go check out your Underground vid now, thx man !

Groms don’t make 40hp

I did all my electric bike videos at Rio. The owner Danny was my good friend. He let me test my bikes after hours. Still my favorite track, EVER.

Wrong music for this vid

idle screw + carb clean

I have a 2022, Kymco Agility. 667 miles, and so far so good. It's the lime green color, and I've gotten a lot of compliments. 😎

Hey bud, don’t worry about ur speed: I know you mention it every video but you’re doing what you need to do out there to show the track! Key board warriors are lame

Ive had two Svs. My favorite one was my SV650sf.

are you still running the go pro 10 and the little mic?

😎

😂

Have you ever torqued spark plugs to spec? They make me even more nervous than this 😂

this is why I love while West Motorplex

Take it to the track! 👍

Thank u for sharing i believe my problem is the same i have a honda cbr 1000 rr 2013 and had the same symptoms it starting to give me the issue of starting on a cold start but after riding it it for a while and turning of it wouldnt start right away i kept using it like that then it completely turned of on me on the road .i got scared though i had seized the engine but rielized it has fresh new oil from last week and i always make sure i have oil .

Can attest, my sons had so much fun

If anyone sees this, google says the Z125 has 0.1 hp more than the Grom, but google didn't factor in the Honda badge which adds 0.2 hp, so the Grom actually does have more horsepower and... you should not buy either of these bikes, lol. You can get something better for less or equal money, unless you love the tiny bike style, than god bless you, lol. EDIT: The owner of the Grom is 6'2"?! LMAO!!! Love that!!! Ride safe :)

Which bike would you take out to a track day? Versys 650, Z1000, or KLX250 supermoto? Or all three? 🤪

I will be 51 this year, and Im 5' 3". Been riding cruisers (all Suzukis). While I love the comfort of the cruiser, I always throw them around as if riding a sport. Had the ls 650 (s-40 2012), the C-50T. When I ride, the needle is always at the max. And I hate cars passing me. I seen a 750 sport, and thought I was smoking it, because I was on a 850 and it was a 750. But he was playing with me like a dog with his food, and I didnt realize it until I was like... Where the **** did he go! Needless to say, I went to the dealership to get an Ultra Classic. It was gone! I eased over to the sport bikes as I always do, just dreaming of what it would be like. Not agreeing with ppl saying "we are too old for those." I seen a few, but connected with a 2019 GSX-R, with 1,300 miles on it for about 13,000. Real carbon fiber on it (whatever that means), and some very short pipe. (I asked what all were mods) Long story short, Im waiting to pick it up this week. Dont know if I will regret leaving the cruiser for it, because I like 2, 3, and 4 hour rides. But God willing, I will pick up another cruiser in a couple years. I plan to ride on bike nights and weekends. A few trips to Myrtle Beach and VA Beach if I can stand it. And definitely plan to go to the track if I will not have to change to different tires to ride on the street after leaving the track. Never rode a sport bike... But I just got to!

I'd really like to play with one of those to get my lean right

Solid choice ✊🏼

I really like the SE model with the real brakes. No need for a quick-shifter, or lean computer, keep it simple for the real man motorcycle. I had a 2011 Z1000, which I loved. So quick, yet reliable, and handsome. I got rear-ended though by a kid in a FORD Explorer at a traffic light. I really like the new 2024 Z900SE or the 2024 GSX1000s naked also. It would be a toss-up. Both are perfect bikes. Yeah, put a full exhaust on it and get a tune. So nice.

Did you use oem clutch springs?

You killed it 🎉

Any complaints either too the grom has a 5 speed and z still has a 4 speed? From the specs it says the grom has more Hp and TQ. And weirdly the feont tire is bigger too the Z seems a tad higher or bigger

I dig it alot this and the 2024 grom look good. I just wonder is 1 actually bigger then the other. I mean same cc engine. Both sharp looking. But any noticeable size difference like ones taller or longer or something like that.

What’s wrong with the seat lol

Is the sizing difference super noticeable? I've been looking into a Grom but this may change my mind. I'm 5'11 and 150lbs.

Z1000s are awsome.. i love mine

Looking through your videos, some great information 🤙

They all serve different purposes, right? That's what I continue to tell myself :D

Beautiful...
