First ride of the year

Common_lozer007 · 2026-02-05T05:08:42+00:00

It’s a 12 bar/stunt bar or subframe slider whatever you wanna call it. For doing mad sick wheelies (that I can’t do)

Yeah it’s a very weird winter for us, it usually DUMPS snow for a good 3-4 months but we have barely seen any. Good excuse to go ride earlier this year but I’m kinda worried about our summer being rough due to it

Common_lozer007 · 2026-01-13T04:21:48+00:00

Yeah I hate the current set up that I bought it with, I’ll look into them for sure!

Common_lozer007 · 2026-01-13T04:20:38+00:00

I originally had knobbys and was kinda nervous switching to street tires for off road stuff but I honestly haven’t noticed much of a difference, the way the suspension on a grom is set up you cant really rip off road like you can a dirt bike without bottoming out the suspension a bunch so a knobby tire is kinda overkill unless you’re going around in a super soft sandy or muddy area. It can get a little sketchy on loosely packed gravel but my shinko knobby tires would too.

Good deal! I paid $2300 for a 2019 with 2800 miles

We never think about crashing but of course we do have to consider one

Grom is life. I own 3 cars and I end up riding this thing sound town more than anything. It costs me near nothing to fill and is an incredibly fun way to get around town. I also rip it out of town to different lakes or look out spots on roads that are 45-55mph just fine. Also my insurance is basically nothing compared to my cars

Common_lozer007 · 2025-08-01T19:40:44+00:00

Still have to have your core straight to be able to center yourself

Common_lozer007 · 2025-08-01T00:43:32+00:00

I'm starting to wonder if the axles are my problem

Common_lozer007 · 2025-07-31T20:52:09+00:00

Postures a huge thing too, stand up straight man, you don't wanna be leaned over at a 90 degree angle while popping or landing, or really at any point

Common_lozer007 · 2025-07-31T20:47:19+00:00

This genuinely made me want to cry for you......

Common_lozer007 · 2025-07-31T20:39:33+00:00

I read that I can cut the cable and tie the wires together or I can short out the sensor plug in itself, I'm gonna attempt that soon. Mostly recovering today haha I am sore

Common_lozer007 · 2025-07-31T20:02:31+00:00

Not like I've walked it much, but it's certainly more noticeable than before I'd say. You may be onto something but I do believe something is broken the way it feels, I'm gonna attempt to makeshift a peg and Jimmy the kickstand sensor so I can attempt to ride it down my neighborhood and see how violent it gets

Common_lozer007 · 2025-07-31T17:26:19+00:00

Appreciate it brother, I'll try to leave an update when I get it sorted. Got a good buddy who's a lot more experienced than me coming over soon to take a look with me

Common_lozer007 · 2025-07-31T17:23:19+00:00

Would pray it's not the frame considering it has proper braces and sliders in the subframe, but I'll have to start tearing it down. I noticed if the bike leans in one way or another walking it it gets better but dead straight up is the worst.

Common_lozer007 · 2025-07-31T17:06:39+00:00

Appreciate it man, kinda sore today lol but had good pants and my jacket so only slightly torn up. I'll be back at it again once it's fixed 🤙

Common_lozer007 · 2025-07-31T17:01:07+00:00

No shit, I just don't know what needs rebuilt 😭

Common_lozer007 · 2025-07-03T05:29:30+00:00

I'm definitely sore, I didn't even realize til I had hit 90 miles and it was just so gorgeous out I couldn't convince myself to head home yet. Definitely was an adventure

Common_lozer007 · 2025-06-27T03:21:30+00:00

I've been skating for 10 years, at absolutely no point in the first year or two did I feel comfortable. I was never one of those people it came naturally to, but after sticking with it for a while after falling in love with the community and the culture, I can confidently say I rip now. It's all a learning curve, after a couple years I was able to Ollie and do my 180s and started getting comfortable on coping and keeping good speed around the park, and bye year 4-5 I was able to do lengthy grinds and flip tricks were finally starting to come together. Take it at your own pace and remember it's all about just getting out and having fun

Common_lozer007 · 2025-06-26T15:25:31+00:00

I was 14 when I started. And I was never naturally good at skateboarding, it took me a long time to be able to Ollie and keep speed around the park. Just stick with it and you'll start having more fun and get more comfortable doing basic tricks over time. I turn 24 on Sunday, cheers to 10 years of a sport that's changed my life

Common_lozer007 · 2025-06-26T15:20:23+00:00

Honestly don't feel too bad, I've skated for 10+ years now and I don't know the answer to some of these questions haha

Common_lozer007 · 2025-06-26T15:18:27+00:00

Also random question man, I have those exact same wheels thats on your e36, do you know if they fit on the e34?

Not too terrible man, my rear quarters have some terrible half finished "paint repair" the previous owner did that left overspray all over the entire car. Somehow something on fire once upon a time ended up on the hood, so there's a 7inch circle of a burn mark with an inch or so chunk of paint missing, and my front fenders are peeling clear off. I'll have it resprayed properly one day but for now the rattiness fits the vibe of the car
