60 is generally what a stock Grom will do, so not too bad for a clone. Nice work getting it sorted, the clones interest me not just because they're cheap, but also because you can load a daytona 190 in them without adapter plates like a grom(or zs190 if you're on a budget).

Northwest minimoto started a spec class this year for YCF SM150s and SM155s, basically high spec Chinese pitbikes in supermoto trim designed by a French company. It's pretty good for $2100, but needs a lot of upgrades for competitive track duty. Radial calipers, larger master cylinder, and some gearing and hardware upgrades come as a package from the guy in Oregon that imports them. They seem to be standing up to 6 hour endurance races ok. One of the bikes was DoA with a case bolt hole drilled so deep it punctured a high pressure oil passage. The bike I test rode seemed to find false neutrals a lot, but the bikes are light and nimble and haul rear end compared to my Grom. The ones with Daytona engines are probably incredible. The other option I was looking at are Kayo MR150s.  They're also 12" wheels and clones of the crf150f engine from what I understand. The MR125s were ttr125 engine clones and we're 1:1 compatible with Yamaha parts, no idea if these are the same. $3500 for the racer package from the nearest importer in Sacramento, but no one's currently racing them in our race series. If we got enough there'd be another spec series for them. I've seen rumors that YCF is also gonna make a cheap GP bike, but haven't found anything else supporting that.

Well scratch that, seems they like to drop intake valves after 10 hours, and the brake caliper bracket breaks at the welds. Reading that today makes me glad I went with the Grom.
