    I had to sell my Grom last year, had it for 2 years and put 30.000km on it! And that's without riding in the Norwegian winter we have here... I just absolutely loved that bike, but it was time to move on to something new and bigger. I will forever remember that bike and the smiles it put on not only my face, but almost everyone around it as well. Nothing went wrong with my bike either, not even with 30.000km on it! Just regular maintenance and service and that was all she needed, I also changed the tires due to RJ's recommendation :)

    I got this bike 1 month ago, and mostly thanks to you. Sold my SV 650 to buy it and I don't regret my choice at all. However it is my everyday and only bike, so a travel a bit with it and have already done 2000km with it ^^
    Some couldn't understand my choice to buy a bike with 65 HP less but that's because they haven't tested it.
    I will regret a bit this one on your channel, I honestly prefer this one as the Monkey, but I know these two are great motorcycles.
    Have fun with your new one, as I will everyday for now :D

    The only thing missing from OG is the strap on the seat. Btw: I've seen your video 4 years ago. I was shocked about the good review of the bike. 1 year ago I was finally old enough to have my bike license. The moment I got my license I bought the msx. It's the best bike ever. It's true, every time I ride the mini bike, it puts a big smile on my face! Thank you RJ. You're a real good and humble influencer in the bike community! Greetings from Belgium.

    Latin origin. Meaning: The Chosen One.

    She is always the centre of attention, very stylish and unique, like no other. She is also a very creative person and always up to something new and different.
    She is a leader.
    She will rock your world.
    She won't take any crap from anyone.
    She will give you everything, but if you get on her bad side your ass WILL be kicked!!
