Re: Cycle whore thread
I know it's not exactly relative (or is it?), but I'd love to see the math that shows the wind resistance (in terms of MPH) at any given speed.
That came out weird, but you know what I mean, if he was going 230mph when that happened, did the air he was riding through actually have the resistance/force of wind blowing that fast?

Even more so.
The wind is being channeled around the front fairing. That air is moving faster the the air around it.
Air going the long way has to move faster to get to the same point as the other air at the same time.
Bernoulli's principle

Main thing that kills it looks like it's an FI version of the 110 with a bigger jug. Leads me to believe it's automatic. hope it's not.
I'm sticking with my CR60 for this deff grabbing a set of those forks as soon as they become available for my CR60

The new Grom may be small, but when it comes to features it’s all Honda. The four-speed transmission works just like a full-sized bike’s so you get plenty of performance and control. Hydraulic disc brakes front and rear give you excellent stopping power.
