Entertaining video, but why would anyone want to live there? I just don’t understand the attraction. I’d go nuts if I had to deal with traffic and people like that on the daily
No “real” people actually live in Manhattan. They just commute there / live in the upper part of the borough. Most everyday middle-class citizens live in the outer boroughs. It’s still crazy, but not crazy like you see here.
DOOD, you are taking BAD RISKS here. I've been riding for many years, (yes, in Manhattan too)... you are leaving ZERO safety margins. The fact that you hit a road vertical and almost crashed proves my point. You're looking to lose a leg.. or your life, riding like that in dense traffic. No Bueno. And.. SHORTS?
Come to literally any European city, forget gears, get a 125cc scooter, have a proper bike for long rides. You will see what’s fun. Specially any southern big city.
@@BaraOnABike good for tourism but impractical for happiness, just cluttered and over populated. No offense to anyone, but I know I’m not the only one that enjoys my own .3 acre lawn and driveway that didn’t cost 5 me million dollars!
I especially love the tire lock on a 200lb bike. Won’t stop anyone from just picking up and tossing it into the back of a truck. I want one, but that’s my biggest worry.
Breaking traffic laws and posting it to TH-cam 👀 The boldest move of all. If you drive them legally, motorcycles don't really offer any benefit in traffic. You can't just cut between cars like that, and change lanes in intersections.
@@BaraOnABike What I find interesting is I seen State and City police in your video, yet none seem to be chasing you. So I guess Anti Lane Splitting isn't strictly enforced.
@@BaraOnABike I was looking through ur vids because i live in ny too but the other end of the state upstate in buffalo. I noticed ur grom got stollen how did u get it back. and then i noticed the gps sticker. How do i do that for mine?
@@RandomRichZ hey appreciate you for following my channel 😁 i got it retrieved by calling nypd and they helped take it back from going at the location. The sticker u got in amazon
@@MoistYeti to be honest like 1-2 a month u dont really get to go more than 45mph because its a very dense city and things move wayyy to quick at that rate hahah
Bro this shit is stressful to watch lol.
life on the edge
Nice vid. Be careful out there.
THanks bro
Good msx

That city looks like a nightmare

That's because it is.

shut up nerd
Wasn’t that bad tbh, but he was focused a lot on his playlist/music. Everything looks and feels faster on a grom.
He got the gloves on so it's fine 😂
They do actually help 😄
@@BaraOnABike For sure 🤪

Im Albanian...Now you know the backstory to this videos. 😉
Can you get going using the friction zone w the Grom, or so u need the throttle?
Nice to see you back! As always ride safe and take care brotha!
Be safe with those dirt bikes out there also
@@BaraOnABike thanks. Slowly switching over to grom riding. Definitely a cool experience
not a motorcycle expert but it seems pretty dangerous, the way he's riding
Nice chill riding brother keep it up 👌
Just an fyi…… those handlebar snapped on me while I was at EastCoastin’ few years ago. I have pictures.
Do you have a FB or ig?
@baraonabike on ig
@@BaraOnABike word.
Just messaged u
That was a close call, at least you learn from your mistakes.
I definitely did
Who would want to live in this traffic hell hole
@@Bellatticakes it is a fun city tho 🥰
This look like china or something… I love being in the country😅
Wdym china 😂

Thats why i got 3 airtags in it. Yeah owning a grom in a big city has its own downsides
That’s definitely a good idea. Thanks for that.
Nice! Do you use a dedicated mic setup to get exhaust audio? Or just the mic in the helmet?
Thanks!!Just the mic on the Camera, i am recording with GoPro MAX
Have fun be safe fam 🙏🏾
Did you have to register it just wondering

Is lever button for gas throttle better ? Also what about splitting lanes. Different laws from state to state ?
Well in NY state ur not supposed to split lanes unless you own a Honda Grom
@@BaraOnABike What I find interesting is I seen State and City police in your video, yet none seem to be chasing you. So I guess Anti Lane Splitting isn't strictly enforced.
What is the thing you have on your seat sorta like a backrest? Where can I find that?
It is not a back rest that is the cover for the bike
@@BaraOnABike fire content tho ride safe bro
You made me not want to get a Grom
Why not
what phone mount is that
i need one for my grom not enough real estate on my bar
I got it in a local store not sure if u can find it online
what is it called?@@BaraOnABike
do you have a mod list? im curious on your exhaust and bars
My exhaust is Toce exhaust, and handlebars from ebay but not recommended

Keep it going bro 🔥
Appreciate your commentsss 😁😁
Doesn't' look like fun to me.
What year is it
nahhhhh and I thought the traffic in my city was bad
What exhaust are you using?
ss
So sick
Thanks man
whats that thing you took off your wheel in the beginning?
Thats a Disc break Lock. It makes a loud alarm if bike is moved and also prevents the bike from thieves tryna roll the bike away.
Can you provide a link for that?
@@arnaldoolivera617 a.co/d/gwCjCN4 this is it
@@BaraOnABikeBRAKE
@@wileecoyote5749 yeah thats what i said, Break
how often do you get to open her up?
What do you mean by that 😈
like how often do you get to open the engine up and really use the bikes speed?
in NY it looks like your pretty set at a certain pace @@BaraOnABike
@@MoistYeti to be honest like 1-2 a month u dont really get to go more than 45mph because its a very dense city and things move wayyy to quick at that rate hahah
it's a Grom, this IS opening it up ;P
