    These were sold as GSXR-50's in the USA. They were very rare here, and not street legal in most states anyway-I did race a guy on my YSR-50 once as a teenager and got my ass handed to me..... it was a big bore motor with a bunch of headwork. Way more than a stock YSR with a tuned pipe could handle.
    I REALLY wish they (Suzuki) would import the GSXR-125 after watching you race.... It seems like a natural bike to offer here given how popular all of the Honda 125cc minis are selling.

    The 2001 Aprilia RS50 I had for a short time was a HOOT to ride wide open everywhere. I find the new 2022 GROM SP to be the perfect answer to this bike. I'm hooning it and getting 110 miles per gallon out of it.

    • @Bobby-wn5yr
      @Bobby-wn5yr 2 года назад +2

      Ah I had the old 2 banger RS125 for about 3 weeks back in the day. I bought it off my cousin who was graduating to a full license for mates rated but insurance was just horrific. I had fire and theft on it initially and that cost about as much as the bike for me at 17 lol. Then someone I know with F&F completely totalled their faired bike and I sold it to ‘downgrade’ to a KMX 125 which was still a 2 stroke 125 but for some reason the insurers didn’t shit a brick as soon as I sat on it and I figured it’d be a bit tougher in a crash.
      I’ve always regretted selling that aprilia though, and meant to buy another one. I just didn’t know that emissions and max hp rules would come in and make them crazy collectible.

      I couldn’t imagine riding a grom and having fun for much longer than a week or so. Yeah it’s memes to ride a child size bike on the road, feels even more dangerous than a normal motorcycle
      Eventually that lack of any real power gets really old when you need to go on roads where the limit is 50-60 mph. Great if you live in the city and you never actually leave it or go anywhere where the roads are nice and fast

    • @Bobby-wn5yr
      @Bobby-wn5yr 2 года назад

      @@CrazyPanda688 I think that’s why you see so many groms up for sale that were either stunt bikes or sold with about 1500 miles on them. I rode one at a demo day, and it was a lot of fun in their carpark carving lines on their course and such, but once you got out on the road it was really slow even for a 125 (9hp and tiny wheels). So yeah for a cheap stunt bike, probably a good buy, especially with the price of supermotos but for the road? Nah.
      I’ve seen some people take them to races at go kart tracks, and I think that’d be the only reason I’d buy a grom myself - a cheap track toy, but even then once you’ve done some power mods and suspension mods and track prepped it, you’re probably paying about the same money as to prep any other small cc bike for a low cc championship you know?
      And then yeah… if for the same money I could prep a 125, 250 or 300 class bike for cheap racing.. I don’t see me buying the grom tbh. Maybe if there was a very active grom racing league around me? That’s the only scenario I could imagine for me personally.

They couldn't pass that stupid law and scraped it! It was dirt cheap and way too fast; ideal for motorcyclists who see 125 mph on highway as slow and 140 mph a little fast on the same highway.

You guys need to get three Groms, modify them and ride around London being total pricks... It'd make for a hilarious video. BTW Fagan, plenty of people still make them, you can buy them online for $500. They just aren't street legal/don't have mirrors and lights etc. The SACS thing is also a dig at Moto Guzzi's CARC system that gets rid of shaft jacking.

    Myself and my Cousin used to sit on a small sportsbike back in the mid/late 90s at a small bike shop when we was in our early teens, i've always wondered what it was was we wern't tall kids. Potentially one of these but highly unlikely.
