What would be your reason to buy a Honda Grom? Leave a comment below..

I’d buy it as a second bike. It’s cheap enough and small enough.
Nice vid. Any idea the model of the red Ducati at the beginning of your video?
Bought one last week as a first bike.. Only had it out once and it's scary in a parking lot and I had no idea how to turn. Watched your beginner videos since then, waiting for a sunny dry day. 😎
Got my endorsement two weeks ago on this bike. I practiced one day a week, (3-5 hrs.) for 5 months. Great bike to learn on: small, light weight, and it has a clutch and shifter. This bike inspires confidence. If you wanna learn how to ride, BUY THIS BIKE.👍🏽💯
Yes indeed... The Navi does not teach anyone how to ride a motorcycle. But you'll do great on CVT scooters!
Big facts 💯
Just completed my MSF 2 days ago! I learned on a Harley 400x I think is what it’s called. Kinda wish that bike was in the US, but the grom does look like a lot of fun
Congrats! Watch my beginner rider series.
I love your attitude man it doesn't matter if we ride Grom or scooter or sport bike safety is a #1 priority and if someone says man you crazy wearing this stuff and all that tell him it's about your health and safety not his, and if he wants to ride a bike naked that's his choice.
"This bike comes in two different flavors." I loved that. 😂
one of the best smiles-per-hour on the planet. I got my license chucking a little grom around a parking lot.. drag that rear brake and you can nearly stop the thing on an apex and shoot out like a gnat changing direction... so much fun.
My son's 6-3. 195 and could go faster in 3rd than in 4th with his old Grom. He dropped ONE tooth off the drive sprocket and can now hit 65mph on the flat and 69 with a tailwind! Only other modification is a cheap glass-pack muffler and 40psi tires
Does he fit comfortably being taller?
@@clintonowens1356 LMAO... He looks like a giant on it. But, it's a lot of fun on campouts and is easy to bring along because it's small
@@clintonowens1356 i'M 6'4", 220, i've been messing around with the idea. went and ordered mine last friday, see what happens when she comes in.
It’s such a fun bike. And it’s cheap enough to have as a second bike. I love it!
I used to live near Huntington Beach and this video was so nostalgic. I love PCH my favorite road ever.
I literally just bought one today but dealership said 2weeks for assembly. I can’t wait to have some fune on it and for what I paid brand new was cheaper than most I saw used so I’m happy about that. Hello from Australia
Two weeks to assemble??? I don’t buy that. It was prob something else..
Good one buddy! Totally agree with you!
My grom is one of the funniest bikes in my garage 👍
Cheers
Always ride full gear!!!!! My friend got rear ended going to the bakery 3 minutes away. He flew like 40 feet. 3 minute ride.
What you mean by full gear?
Sorry motorbike newbie here
Thanks
wearing gear.... in full
helmet... pants, jacket etc etc @@JR-pf7kk
Bought one as my first bike a year ago took it everywhere was such a laugh. Traded up and got the 765RS but kinda miss it. When i get a larger garage will have to pop down to the dealer and get another or maybe the honda monkey :)
Perfect first bike man... You did it correctly! kudos 👍
This is exactly how it feels going from my super light, can twist the throttle Kawasaki KLX140 dirtbike to my sportbikes (Gixxers). They feel so heavy 😂- Amy
That Green . Gotta Have That Color
I eamt a commute scooter, retired sick of expensive fuel, but too small im 6 foot 270, ill find a 250 to 350, with spme grocery storage and an easy over foot deck, it cool though
As a mechanic, revving out a brand new engine makes me cringe! Break it in first!
Lol.. as a mechanic you should know better that break-ins are a myth.
Ideal for short rides in town. I don’t know if Honda is selling them in Europa (never seen one…) but it looks like fun.
Yeh they sell em here in Europe, mostly younger folk that don't need a 'bigger' looking 125
@@brayvdb2191 thx! You’re right. I saw , later this day, a Dutch review also. They where quite similar by the way.
@@gertjanweststrate7267not just younger folks…. A lot of food delivery folks, think Uber, Deliveroo etc (at least here in London/UK) use small bikes like these and mopeds to nip around making their drops.
Happy rider ! 😀😆🤣
I want to get a grom because i can legaly hoon it in a school zone
2 hour backroad commutes?
Anyone know the model of the red Ducati motorcycle in the begging in the video?
DUC 848 Evo with a Termi exhaust
I ride grom with full gears also and I own s1000rr and h2 . Safely is important. Anything can happen on road
What do you use your Grom for mostly?
@@PetroHead grom kinda become daily ride for me not gonna lie . Mostly use it for going work and short city ride
It’s a perfect short commute ride like I said.. efficient.. cost effective.. etc.. 👍
Great fun in the city. Full ATGATT
It's funny how you can get a Honda in Kawasaki green.🙂
Wow.. good point.
Yeah, this shouldn't be legal lol
The 2022 is a lot better and it’s faster proven fact my friend has a 2020 I have a 2022 and mine laterally gaps his bike by Atleast a car length lol we both have intake & exhaust
2022 review coming soon and I agree with you.. miles (upgrade) better
If 98% of the time I am driving on a 45mph road would the grom be a good bike? With the fathers commute being 8 miles.
Id say yes, the newer grows are more comfortable around 50-55
ATGATT - All The Gear All The Time. I'm a big proponent of it. Anyone that has ridden enough miles has been cut off by that driver that "didn't see you". Ride enough miles, and you will have some close calls. I'd rather sweat from the extra armor than take an impact in a tee shirt. Gear won't protect you from your own stupidity. But when someone else is stupid, it will lessen the impact. And that is the whole point. Maybe it turns a break into a sprain. Maybe it turns brain damage into ringing your bell. Take every advantage you can with ATGATT.
I miss my grom
riding a 50cc... full ATGATT every ride.... LOL Currently trying to decide between GROM and KTM 250.
Id race that grom with my bintelli flash 150cc perormance exhaust added for 1,200 cheaper and beat it easily.
The reason would be cruising in heavy so-cal traffic🤡 actually pretty cool bike!
Yea, perfect for SoCal.
I want a grom so bad i got the chance to get on but im 6'2 and everyones telling me no don't do it
Lol
Do you think I could trade a low miles 2003 Honda shadow that dosent work for a grom ??
Still think it could use a slightly bigger engine, even though its mostly meant for Europe's stupid restricting law for 18yo's
idk man... plenty of experienced riders buy them here in the states. Like I said.. perfect last mile type of vehicle for errands and short spurts.
@@PetroHead They're pretty much "pit bikes" and that's that. The actual speed display is the same 5-7% fast as all bikes.
Turbo!
I ride in shorts and tshirt
me too lol
Grom 5-6 sec 0-60 ? Your are off by far, It's about 12-13 sec for 0-50.
Yeah definitely but the little 125s can go 0-30 pretty quick and low weight off the line means you can get ahead around town unless someone floors their car.
I live by Newport Beach and commute to school everyday on 2017 grom I love lane filtering it’s so easy especially with California shit drivers . And never have to go to gas stations. I took it to apex there good but needs some upgrades compared to small Moto gp bikes. Suspension is terrible and brakes fade is bad. I squid everyday just helmet I know but on apex I got full leathers ironic
Good info.. thanks 🙏
Giggling like a little girl even before leaving the parking lot.
That should tell you everything you need to know.
I bought mine 4 years ago. Was I happy with it? No. Was it enough for me? No. Solution? I bought a second one last year.
That's how bad those Hondas are.
By the way, on the race track, i had so much fun. You'll scrape the peg easily. One fuel tank will last a full day, tires don't get shredded, if you crash, that's on you.
I ride my grom in shorts and slippers 😆
Hands moving, pointing and gesturing within the frame are distracting.
I wanted to watch this video to the end, but had to move on because the moving hands pull my eyes away from the bike.
It's your vid and you can make them however you choose, but...
Like or hate.. this is how I roll. Peace homie!
You’re a dork.
A bike like this doesn't need speed it only needs 2 things. A cupholder and a flip-up helmet.
grom = miata
lol true
Love the Grom. It just needs a few things and then I'd buy one.
+825cc
+bigger sized frame
+17" wheels
+6 speed
+much better aesthetics
Otherwise they are totally cool.
Haha.. I’m hoping the Grom stays a Grom.. but if they do what they did with the Mini.. it’s no longer a Mini. (By increasing its proportions to meet fat American’ expectations)
@@PetroHead I know. I'm only funnin. I've ridden a Z125pro and I did it without any desire to buy one, and I maintained that after the demo was over. But I don't mind experiencing all sorts of stuff.
I want one with cb300 motor in it but not enough to build one.
lol
It’s a novelty toy
Gym, small errands here and there. Great commuter bike.. cheap on gas, etc just don’t buy it for performance or thrills. Just my 0.2 cents.
So nerdy can’t help but cringe
I rode a Grom and a Monkey. They were the slowest bikes I have ever ridden! It is the only motorcycle I have ridden where you turn the throttle and NOTHING happens! They remind me of those go carts that you rent and race on the track. They are governed I think for about 10mph and when you push the gas pedal it takes them about 5 minutes to think about moving. IMO, the Grom and Monkey are ok around the neighborhood or on country rural roads, but I wouldn't feel comfortable taking them on any highways or major roads where the speed limit is over 40mph. If you tried to merge in front of a car or a truck, you are going to be road kill! Forget highways! Why buy a 9hp motorcycle and soup it up to 15hp when you can just get a 300cc and have 35hp for a little bit more? They are are for pussies and kids that are afraid of a real motorcycle. I had a Honda 300 CBRR that I sold because it was too slow to stay with traffic, and it was over stressed on the highway because you are running near redline all the time. They are unsafe IMO in most situations because you can't avoid accidents because on insufficient acceleration.
You have pretty much missed the whole point of these bikes!!!
So you don't like them then ?
