This video was filmed in November 2023. Sorry it took a while to upload. My computer took a dump and until I get a new one. My channel will be slow on content. But we will get there.
got mine back in november, babied it around for the first couple hundred miles then started varying the riding a bit. fantastic bike for me as i literaly weigh nothing xD
Nice grom, i have the 24 in nitric orange....as far as break in goes, well mine never had a break in....WOT everywhere i go and runs like a champ. Get yourself a aftermarket exhaust, make it sound nasty
I have some parts both I installed and ordered coming. I’ll be posting some YT shorts and on my IG you can see them 😊 Edit didn’t mean to tap that emoji* stupid fat thumbs*
Congrats!!! 6’4”!!!! Holy cow, that’s like a roller blade under you 😂 ( 5’7” 150lbs) Iv had several bikes and wheelers over the years. Got me a 2024 0miles for my last birthday. Was at a dealership on a highway during rush hour😂. Wasn’t sure what the power was going to be like but gave it a try. Was not disappointed!! I had to turn left out of the dealership across 4 lanes (5 if you include the suicide lane). Got about 1/8 mile down the road and hit full stop traffic (a Harley had recked in the center lane 😢) I hopped the curb and hit the field and ran past almost a mile of dead stop traffic!! Was soooo excited that I got to do grom things before I even put on the first mile 😂 Enjoy the bike, Iv already had more smiles per miles on mine then I used to in my rockets. As for anybody wondering if it’s a good learner bike… Yes! Because it almost lacks the power to get you in a bind and teaches you to use a clutch if you haven’t already. If you do lay it down, plastics are stupid cheap and parts are everywhere. Just make sure you learn in a safe place.
Glad you enjoy yours. I’ve been enjoying the last several months of ownership. My biggest thing about it not being a good beginner bike is it’s almost too slow. Cars just wiz by you and don’t pay attention. Even on a 300 or 400 you got at least some power to get out of situations. But in other areas where cars don’t drive dangerous near sonic speeds, then it’s a great commute bike and as a learning tool It’s a great learning bike.
I would say yes because it’s easy to ride. But depending on where you live it may not be a good commute bike. They’re so small and slow and at least where I live people drive way faster than the bike can cruise at. So if you’re looking to commute on a bike might be better off on an R3 or Ninja 400. But as a learning tool for riding or wheelies, or just as a toy they’re awesome.
I understand everybody is going to tell you that because it's so unintimidating and low power that it is a good beginner bike. I don't think it is, beginners don't know how to understand when people can't see them and jump in front of them. This bike is very small and you need to be very aware rider. This has the opposite problem of most bikes, usually newbies will get in trouble going too fast. This bike lacks power to escape a situation and it has terrible breaks. They build these two price point. Be careful
I would say no get a SV 650 or a similar naked bike or even a 650 cruiser style bike. While the grom is a good and fun bike it should defiantly be a second bike your gonna wish you had more CC's that you can acutely take on a decent trip on the highway/interstate. I love my grom but I'm glad it wasn't my first bike if it was I might have not gotten into it as much as I have.
Hey Bro, welcome to the "Gromreapers". We kick butt and take names !!!!!!! Groms are a total HOOT to ride !!!!!

@@TheOutdoorsman I’ve made lots of upgrades. Just don’t have a proper motovlog set up atm. But you can check my YT shorts to see some of the upgrades.
Awesome! Same here with the ownership feeling. 2024 also. Sweet color 👍
Enjoy it sir I got a 2019 last year in the same color and after I got it I've hardly been on my big bike cause the grom is so much fun.

It’s a great learning bike.
Same size lol this is about the only thing I can think of where being a smaller guy is a total advantage. Yaaay us!
Is that a good first bike ?
