A grom on 400, how do you fit into jeans w them balls lol
I have a question did you have to do the msf before buying a motorcycle and is it required to do it
YTgusty_ inch8 the MSF course is not required, that being said I would highly recommend it if it’s feasible for you. You will learn a TON of great skills and bike control. Especially the slow speed maneuvers! The majority of “drops” that happen with bikes are at a very slow speed and from rider error. The Motorcycle Safety Foundation even has a deal with the Honda Riders Training Center in Alpharetta, Ga. you are able to complete the course on one of their bikes. Included with the course!
Hey! love the content... have any tips on buying salvages motorcycles?
Hey man can you make a first ride review of honda africa twin 1100l manual and big fam bro
Dude this is Hollywood level film right here. Impressive how your videos keep improving.
Yo to watch the back end of it is insane. I can't imagine how hard these guys work especially to get the video out the very next day
I mean it's on par with a bunch of other channels that I watch...
Fort9ine is pretty insane
When a TH-camr invests money back into his channel instead of toys it pays off.
75,300 miles on my 2014 Grom and still ticking! (Yes, really.) Such great little bikes. Chase's original Grom review was the final straw that convinced me to go pick mine up.
So not many people have had this happen, i know because ive asked.
-my honda grom got me 5k dollars in a settlement against a officer who said i was doing 65-70mph in a 45mph zone.
What other bike can actually fight a ticket for you?
Only once have I reached 65mph. Downhill and full tuck. Kind of scary to see the wobble on the front V-Rubber wheel.
how??? Groms can barely get to 50 mph I'm a smaller rider so I can go a little bit faster on it.
@@Spartan375X my top speed is 78mph redlining down big bear mountain haha but that was on maxxis.
Vee rubs are dangerous man!
Be careful! Water = ice with those
@@alyjenbk okay so rev every gear to redline or beyond and then shift.
Should be able to hit 63-64mph flat
(Maybe)
Downhill you should be able to do 78mph at redline.
But yeah they mainly do
45mph-50mph flat ground.
43mph in a dtrong headwind lol
I top out at 77 mph. I can maintain 62 mph on flats all day long and 58 mph up some rather steep hills. Got pulled 2 days ago for going 62 in a 35 😆. Cop gave me a written warning. He even wrote "moped" on the warning lol
I like the new format! I have a Grom too, and another awesome cost effective point, is that while my normal 165 HP, 1649cc sport touring motorcycle cooks through a $250 rear tire in like 9k miles and a $175 front tire in like 15k miles, a set of tires for this 9HP gem is $100...for the best possible, highest end tires, and they last fooorrrreevvveerrrr
Idea: Here's why torque is more fun than horsepower.
This speaks to my heart. This video will happen at some point.
Chase, you knocked it out of the park with this one. Main ride is a Panigale 899, and my Grom gets more love ! Please consider doing a mini bike WBRB !
IF I got a mini it'd be the Z125, just because the top cylinder head wont run out of oil due to wheelie and it comes with a proper oil filter as well as having more torque down low in exchange for slight top speed advantage.
I'm sure either bike is a blast though to ride. Much respect to the OG Grom.
The same reasons I have advocated for mini bikes ever sense I had them. Don’t forget about the benefits carrying over to a full size bike and being able to take these to the track and race them on kart tracks as well! Great video as always man!
- Here’s why you should own a cruiser
- Here’s why you should own a 600cc motorcycle
- Here’s why you should own a liter bike
there is like no reason to own a 600 or a liter bike unless you want to go fast or track
Daniel a 600cc doesn’t mean a 600cc supersport. But those are basically the best you can get. They go fast in a straight line, can corner, and don’t have that much power so even can handle the city
@@iamsideswipe 600cc's are usually supersports. 650's are something else
Why not? It will take me a year to get to work on a grom
there are 600cc nakeds or 660cc supersports. but I get the point. I test rode a R1 the other day. it ist nothing for the city more for mountain roads or the track. But an R6 can be easily driven in the City or an MT-10
LOVED the video!!! I have a Honda Grom for my second bike and its amazing because I can (like you said) introduce all my family and friends to the two wheel gang and they love it. every time the come by now they all want to take turns riding it lol
I literally just picked up a new 2020 Grom 2 weeks ago and it already has 550 miles on it. Been such a fun thing to explore the city with
I'm here waiting to see if they will bring put the new hunter cub to the US 🇺🇸 🙂
Honda needs a Grom/Monkey-250, that would be the sweet spot
Amen, brother.
@@SKITTLELA I've been writing them once in a while! Pile up the emails! Let them know!
They are 125 because in Europe you can start riding 125 at 16 and bigger bikes at 18(and bigger at 20)
Came here to say this. I'd get a grom if it were the same size with a 250.
omg YAS
Bought a 2014 Grom today most fun I've had in decades can't wait for tomorrow
Maybe you could do a 300cc engine is powerful enough, here's why?
I 100% agree with that, you hear it all the time. You can’t have fun on a 300, you’ll get bored. The Yamaha R3 begs to differ😂
Brandon Brown I think you can have fun on any bike really. Ppl just power trip. I mean I wouldn’t give up my 1000 cause I’m a speed demon but I’d most definitely have fun on a 300.
@@btherealbb I'm bored of my FZ-07 so... I beg to differ.
After riding a bunch of larger displacement bikes I found that the FZ-07 just doesn't excite me like it did in my first year of ownership. Now it's just a bike that is ok most of the time, but in certain situations it's just not able to deliver.
@@Kc2Heatz There are things a 1000 can do that a 300 can never do. I realized this after borrowing an R1 for a couple weeks. The electronics, the ability to ride on the highway without fighting the wind or dealing with not having a lot of passing power since all my power is down low... I want a bike that can do everything and that's where the GSXS1000F comes in. It's got the ability to go on trips with the girlfriend on the back, it's got the ability to tear shit up when you want to, and it gets pretty good gas mileage for when you're just commuting.
OspreyBravo18 yea the 1000f is a solid buy. I got a1000r
When you mentioned a guy in the Grom/Minibike community I IMMEDIATELY knew you were talking about Rodney. He's the best, hands down.
“I sold all my bikes and bought only Groms, here’s why”
I have a 2014 Grom & yes I absolutely love it but for some reason I want that new Hunter Cub so bad! Such a throwback
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE that group jump at 5:10. It is sooo hilarious XD
I just bought a grom today. Originally was just checking out prices. I did a ins quote and my ins dropped 20 dollars. I got a grom
Suzuki DRZ 400 SM, that bike is also super customizable, doesn’t reach crazy speeds, so insurance companies would give good pricing. Carbureted so self maintenance is easy. You don’t have to worry about dealing with all the electronics/ECU side of things. Has been around for so long, like the Honda Grom, there is tons of things to do, to make it super original to the rider
Never seen any of your videos but jheez the production put in this video is insane. This is content.
Considering my commute is 100% windy af back roads where my max speed is 55mph, I think I could commute on a Grom lol.
On another note, my daily is a 82 Yamaha XS400 Maxim, I would love to see a video comparing old motorcycles to new motorcycles to see how the tech has evolved, comfort, etc.
I’ve never owned a grom, but I had two friends buy stunted our groms and was privileged enough to ride them quite a bit and what stands out is just how stupid fun they are. You can do so much more with them because the fun investment price was so good! For me, the only thing that can beat a grom, in terms of fun factor, is a supermoto, but those definitely aren’t as friendly as a grom to someone who doesn’t have dirt bike experience! Love these bikes and believe that everyone who rides should own one at some point, myself included!!!
Such a fun day Chase. It was so cool to see how you work. Hope we meet again! Your adventure series videos are why I became interested in a mini
Looked fun Sean! Wish I could have made it down to play with you guys.
Killn it!
Do a wrecked bike rebuild on a grom
These are my favorite bikes over anything lol
5:11 all those people jumping on those tiny bikes looks adorable.
I love the new camera work kind of style this is dope !!!
I have an FZ09 and the Grom (bored out to 181ccs) is my second bike. It’s perfect for quick jaunts around town and it always puts a smile on my face 😁
Seriously Dude, to see how you have taken this channel from 0-hero is truly amazing!!🎊🎉👍🏾
You now have a great team of buddies to support you and the content is getting better year by year with great camera work. Hats of to you chase and after watching this episode, after all this time, I am now going to become a patreon, all because THIS video has made me want to research into groms to possibly purchase one and there I have been like no, no, it's just ridiculous I will never buy one.🤣 Kudos brother!!😁👍🏾
The small CC bikes are always great lol went from a Yamaha FZR600 to a Suzuki TS90 lol
My first streetbike is a 81 cb125S. good enough. I got the OG grom
Really well done video. Also I want a grom now.
This video makes my top 10 for you man. That was an awesome video! We have the buffalo grom squad here!
Great fun! Great vid! But note: oil changes are at 4000 KILOMETRES (or 2500 miles) NOT 4000 miles. And, with such a small oil capacity, it's important to do them by the book if you want the engine to last.
Great video and content! Big fan of the channel; big thanks to Patrick for the suggestion! I’m looking forward to seeing more!
That was the epic pass I have seen in my life. 😂😂
I'm liking this new type of video man, great cinematics and nice free style presentation. Just one thing, the volume difference between the on bike audio and studio comments is a bit harsh. Keep up the good work 👌
If we had spent more than 2 days on this video that would have been what I worked on first.
@@chaseontwowheels I completely onderstand man, your content output is insane 💪
When I got my 2015 Honda grom having already owning a 2018 bmw s1000r my insurance rates actually dropped when I added it onto my policy Also side note I didn't touch .y bmw for around 4 months after I got my grom 🤷
0:36 best moment of the entire video
Honestly I saw the 10:16 video length and expected some clickbait boring rubbish. But I gotta say I loved this video, it's beautifully shot and put together. I have 40k km on my Grom and doing a CBR250R swap. It's an amazing bike.
Yo this Is awesome man Great perspective from a More experience rider(Ride a variety of bikes) Really cool to know You also dig the Grom that was my First ever bike I learned to ride legally here in the US , It’s all around Fun💯💯 Great video and It would be awesome if You made a Video Of “Here’s Why?” about Why Motorcycles are 1,000,000 Times Great and Awesome to get into Riding , Funner then any super car and just the Best activity/hobby You can Do to have some excitement in Life It relieves stress it causes happiness and It’s just a Fantabulous experience to Have in Life🙏🏻💯💯💯
This filming skill is incredible, keep it up 👌
That transition at 2:36 was soo freakin smooth. Like wow....
I like the light documentary style video, make more of them
Have a liter and 600rr and also two groms, yep, having them as a second (or third) bike is definitely an awesome choice.
Grom or Bust
I like the way this was done! Good job!
There’s a local business that rents out groms down by the beach. They’re business is booming so the beach is full of groms. It’s hilarious.
Chase when is discovery channel or something going to pick you up?!?! you quilty is in the top 1% of anything out there!
Z125 rider here. Mini bikes are awesome. I put 4000 miles on mine in the first year of ownership. That's a lot more than my other two bikes (Suzuki GSXS1000F and Indian 2020 Bobber)
Nice, I would love a Grom!!! Although a bit bigger/more powerful bike would be better for us seasoned riders!
I want a Z125, because it uses the oil can over the system the grom uses. My 400 is great but it's getting upgraded to a 636 and I'm getting a mini.
Also really like the new style. The intro was great.
I love my grom got my 20 grom and 20 r3 from the Roswell mountian love them
The Grom is my one and only ...
at the moment
This some good new series. Btw you should do small naked bike class sometime with the Mt03, RC390, Z400, CB300r
Mini-bike community in America is pretty much what we have in Europe with 50cc/125cc mopeds or supermotos and I like that.
I ride a 50cc 2t gilera smt and it's hella lots of fun.
loved this video and please do first rides of crruisers like harley
I wish i could upvote this a million times... f it, , ill do the ride for him, just lets get more cruisers in the mix lol
Man o Man, why didn't i see this video earlier... I already have a grom for pit bike since I only do track days but I've rarely ridden the Grom on streets, I've gotta find my local Grom hooligans here in Orlando,FL and do some silly stuff like that.
I'm not sure how to word it but I'd love for you to talk about front controls, mid controls, and rear sets. I've ridden with all three and I'm super uncomfortable with front controls because I feel so out of control vs rear sets. I'd like to see y'all opinion on it. Love everything y'all have been doing keep it up.
It's a nice bike I got one👍😊 fun too state farm 21$ a month ❤ work on it myself EZ 😁
Really liked this new style video with the inclusion of riders from the community. Much more interesting content.
Groms are so freaking cool. Thats my dream to have one of those or a monkey to stunt out and learn how to do tricks. They are great for conversation pieces everyone loves em for the most part.
I actually purchased a 2019 new Grom in orange. However, due to back problems I've only rode it a hand full of times if that. My barber keeps saying that I should just drain its fluids and then set it up in my living room. 😀
I don't want to sell it and I think it looks better than the newer looking Groms.
Chase i'm still waiting for Any Ridden Sunday !! lol.
On the insurance front
My "wifes" 2014 Grom would not be insured because of the low displacement. Apparently real motorcycles start at 128cc or so
which was a hilarious conversation with the TD rep.
"If i bore it out would you take my money?"
"yes"
That's hilarious this video literally came out the day that I bought my Grom a bigger brother 😂. I've had the Grom for over a year now and it is AWESOME!! I just push it harder than it likes on trails, (bottoming out CONSTANTLY) I wanted something with more ground clearance, and something I don't have to full tuck on the freeway on! Besides that the Grom is still my daily!!
A mini bike comparison would be cool. My wife wants a Vespa and need something to keep up with it.
Do a here's why for battery leads. It's probably one of the simplest but best ease of life mods with accessory and batter charging.
best cheap track bike? used or new, or maybe even both!
Keep it up. Definitely enjoyed the style!
Your content had gotten so professional looking! Such a good video!!
Just bought one today !!!
I have a Grom, amazing bike as a student, super cheap and a LOT of fun:)
Nice review! Quality from the chase car is awesome! 👌
Groms are like the WR250R. I shouldn't own either because I know the hooligan stuff I would do with it. I grew up on Trail 70s and 90s along with Honda 4trx. We always did crazy stuff. We also had Arctic Cats for snow when the 4trx couldn't handle it.
here's why the mt-07 is the next big stunt bike. with the amount of torque it makes even bone stock, it is a really easy bike to learn to wheelies and stunt riders are starting to see just how amazing this bike is for stunt riding
It’s a great middle ground bike. Someone can go from a 1000 or a 125 and get that bike. Next thing you know they are 3 years later. I 100% agree with that bike for being a video.
Yup i guessed it right, grom is now the content
Own a grom 5yrs now and love it wouldn't sell it. Some insurance companies where I am charge more them a supersport 1000cc 😂
I currently own a 2014 Grom brought used n 2018 for $2,500.
Already had some upgrades
Insurance is $262.00 year full coverage which is $21.83 a month. I love it, a street legal pitbike/toy (Grom), i don't even ride my Honda CRF50 anymore, being that its not legal to ride on the streets.
Always wanted a Grom as a second bike. Just maximum fun for minimum outlay.
Couldn’t have said it better myself. Love love love my grom. I can’t see a reason to get rid of it!
I bought a grom for my FIRST bike. Zero regrets. Love this freakin thing.
that high five to the traffic worker cracked me up
Wait till you ride a 50cc 2 stroke sportsbike. (Aprilia rs 50) those are lots of fun!
Eitherway, awesome video! I want a grom!
One of the highest quality video I’ve ever seen. Keep it up
Great video! I have to say though, your untucked laces are giving me flashbacks to snagging mine on my shift lever and almost crapping my pants. Luckily, neither you nor myself dropped the bike. haha
High fives the construction worker LOL....... Two thumbs up for the video and the GROM!!! 👍👍
The is THE best episode on the whole TH-cam for real
Groms are sweet. If you want to see people having fun on a Grom, check out Photogromer! Great video, Chase.
I love my grom, it’s definitely the “do whatever I want bike” lol.
5:11 lmao thats looks so funny
So. . . this was a well edited video. The bit about the "hoonigan" happenings in Atlanta
was interesting... Not what I would want to do with a grom.
Speaking of .. I am surprised Honda didn't make the Grom a 250cc bike. It would still be small
and not intimidating, but at least it could get up to 55 easier.. on the highway?
Here's why a naked bike is the best bike for the street. Its been done a lot but I'd love to hear your take on it.
i have a litre bike... one day i bought a 2nd hand grom as a back up ride, and i regretted so much for doing so. cuz i barely ride the main bike anymore.. grom are stupid fun.
Love the here's why format.
Looking super good on that mini
Really enjoyed this, super high quality!
Dude your video skills have improved so much since the beginning. It's crazy. Also - I want a Z125 so bad. One day... One day... For now I'll just enjoy my R6 😎
2:13 that’s my boys with the ATL grom squad!
