Grand Prix

Originally green but afrer a few years fancied a change so went blue

You'll find yourself looking for side roads to explore and spending hours just hacking around not really going anywhere. The suspension and torquey engine are great for this stuff and the riding is very comfortable as the suspension copes with ease in these conditions. You don't find yourself pinged out of the seat on the bumps as you would with most road bikes and potholes and cambers are now just fun to come across. Very confidence inspiring bike in these situations.

And in the original green


This was a great bike which I owned for over 14 years. Great back laner with an engine and suspension setup for hours of fun on smaller back roads and even off road. When the weather get rough you actually look forward to taking this thing out for a blast

This bike has Quill exhaust fitted and rejetted with 150MJs, 27.5PJs, K&N filter and the airbox lid removed. This makes the bike run much better than it did and much crisper response The forum dedicated to CCM Mad (now of FaceBook) is a great place for information and talking with otehr CCM owners and I'd recommend a visit. When I first got the bike, I found these very handy for tips and tricks on setting the machine up and learning from other people's experiences.


This one is the R30 644 with a Suzuki engine fitted. It's a fairly basic bike, with little more than and engine stuck in a frame and some electrics. However, it does have a few quirks worth mentioning. The bike does not come with a Trip meter, just to make life interesting as the tank range isn;t great. The electrics are a little flaky at the back. Very minor issue but I've had problems with the connectors under the seat. One knocked out the rear light and another one of the rear indicators. Easy fix and not sure if this was just mine or a common issue. Lastly is the rear light bracket. Another R30 owner brought this one to my attention, so it's a common issue. The bracket is so flimsy that the weight of the number plate will eventually end up cracking the bracket on both sides. I 'fixed' mine by inserting two metal supports. I have also seen aftermarket replacements. I sold the bike in late 2021 after owning for 14+ years. Sad to see it go but I had a lot of bikes and the R30 wasn't getting used much.
