[QUOTE="Deoodles, post: 200371, member: 8270"] Nice day. Good for both of you. Monkey aspect is 80. Grom is 70. I’m confident my speedometer is calibrated. Did 49 on speedo and gps. That said I still can’t figure out why the Monkey is slower than the Grom so I did some research first gear through fifth gear ratios on both bikes are identical the primary gear on both bikes is also identical 25T they also share the same cam and fuel injector, have the same stroke and compression. now I have to look at the tires The Monkees tires are bigger so the gearing Has to be adjusted to account for that what I learned was the monkey is 1.3% taller stock by going to the 38 I’m now 2.6% shorter than stock and 1.3% shorter than the Grom I think that will help the Grom by the way is perfect the only other factors I can think of are the tune in the ecm and the tires and resistance as well as riding position and resistance can’t wait to get out on the road and put some miles on the new gear set up. 275 miles now [/QUOTE]
