Clocked 2500 km and still love the Grom. Think it's about the power though not enough for people but for me it's perfect. I don't group ride and mostly solo commute but it has gotten me to join a group and look for rides. I do find myself looking at buying another bike but no intention of selling as its just a fun bike
Best mod is a stainless steel exhaust system by Sc Products.Adds more low end torque,go man,go have more fun.Buy another Grom yes,another bike,nahh...Ridn on,Ride safe.
as a second bike they are perfect!!! I'm so glad i helped in some way to make your decision, if you are in Florida be sure to search Facebook for all of the Florida groups.
I got a nice Blue 2017 Grom.I love riding it,Sc Stainless low mount exhaust system give me loads more Bottom end torque.It keeps going up to 6500rpm really good.Pulling race changes I keep up with the 60+yo's around the city.The grom is working hard on the Hiway.Coloured leavers,coloured stand foot,blue Led lighting hidden and only used off road here in Australia.Great fun to play with and add mods for bit more zoom,zoom.Good bike Honda.
cool. bought myself 2019 Honda Grom a few months ago. I fell in love with it. My very first bike. I plan on keeping it for the next few years before I make another purchase for little bigger. Nice video.
Road mine for the 1st time today and put 15 miles on. I was thinking of changing the seat but it fits fine. I ordered an exhaust and a fender eliminator but probably won’t do much more with it
I'm a little suspicious about buying used stuff, motorcycles in particular, and Groms even more so. No telling how they have been abused doing wheelies, stop-o's, not to mention all the crashing.
The problem is people that buy a Grom as their only bike. It's fun and everything but that novelty can wear off very quickly if you don't also have a real bike to take on the freeway/pass some cars
Groms have their use, mostly as a stunt bike or play bike. Most people I know who actually keep Groms are stunters (the Grom is an insanely good stunt bike).
I am really considering getting a Grom, hopefully by this summer. I've been looking into getting one for a few years and test rode once last year and again over the weekend. I even brought my camera during this test ride to have like a motivational like goal, kind of like the poster of a kitten hanging onto a branch.
Feel free to ask any question, I will always do my best to help my subs! Used will save you a few thousand for sure but I am seeing some killer deals on the Honda Grom Facebook groups right now for 2018's if you can buy one now, talks like 3199 out the door.
Groms are more of a really cool scooter that an actual bike, that's what makes them cool and suck at the same time. If you compare this to an actual bike you may be disappointed, its a fun toy.
there is a guy somewhere in Central FL selling his red 2017 for just 2500 bucks or something, steal of a deal! Look on the Florida grom riders facebook page.
The mirrors are "Neverlandback" mirrors, you can buy them off of Ebay. I have the exact link in my mirror install video, the mirrors in that video are the old ones but in the info below is the exact link to the new ones I bought! I hope you get a Grom soon:)
good idea bro i got mine used with1700 miles for 2k with a decent amount of mods on it. i posted a vid if you want to check it out. its a 2014 and i still love it. i already doubled his miles and more within the 5 months ive had it lol. i offered him 2k an he said ok right away i should have tried lower.. he had two though so that might have helped also. ps. i use it as my daily in the city i live in. and it saves me lots of time in the morning splitting lanes when all the soccer moms trying give their kids a ride to school ..i work local though so it works out. though ive taken it to the valley here and we have a lot of side streets and old highways in california so i can pretty much take it anywhere. im at over 6k miles now.
I was wondering this same thing. Got a Grom Facebook group here in Lafayette, Louisiana. I just bought myself a 2017 Grom brand new and now everyone in the groups have their groms for sale. Like why? On top of that they are asking $2500 for a 2014. That’s almost what I paid for mine. Lol
ridiculous huh? I mean yes they hold their value much better than the Kawasaki Z125 but wow that is a great resale. I say offer less and see what happens. I wanted this bright yellow and no other color so I had to go new.
Best mod is a stainless steel exhaust system by Sc Products.Adds more low end torque,go man,go have more fun.Buy another Grom yes,another bike,nahh...Ridn on,Ride safe.
LOL @older single women in a VW Beetle. How do you know they're single? More odds they're married if they're older. So on another note ...who makes those Grom mirrors?
I honestly would say you should go on that facebook grom for sale group, find something in a state near you and then travel down there with a rental truck or van and toss it in and drive it back.
two reason they sell i would say cover probably 95% of riders... first is the standard.. they use it as first bike to learn to ride then move on up the ccs.. since there hasn't been mini bikes for awhile. the grom is the new one but more or less its most 250s you see on craigslist.. 2nd is the fad chaser. they don't really know what the grom is about they see it think its cool and buy it and for some reason it doesn't fit their needs.. I bought a used one with 1700 miles on it a couple years ago and I have 20600+ miles on it now.
yup, they just won't let your payment be less than 75 dollars a month according to Honda so they recommend don't put anything down and on the first payment drop the huge down payment then.
Just got a grom a few days ago wanted one for about 2 years but everyone thought I was dumb I live off Conway and frequent Kissimmee a lot trying to find someone to ride with and keep at the same pace if you know what I mean because it is a grom lol I don’t have Facebook to get on the group rides but just trying to cruse around my instagram is j_r_y_s hmu if you want
it's time to create a quick facebook account:) You really need to join Florida grom riders and meet more of the local crew. I think most of the Orlando groms are on instagram, look up Orlando Goon squad.
These are no better than the old Honda 90 of the mid 1960s. I had one and could always go 65-70 mph on the hwy, plus they had much bigger wheels that wouldn't get caught in road grooves.
I knew a kid in high school who drove a beetle his father was a higher up at a VW dealership. But he was gay so kinda explains why he was ok with driving a beetle I guess.
My chinese TT250 would dust that grom. I got to 67 in full tuck GOING UP A STEEP HILL. It'd prolly do 70 easy on a flat. I couldn't ride a grom, I'd just look like a man riding a goat.
My point is not that, but the fact that my bike costs a grand less BRAND NEW than a grom and is twice as good yet the rider doesn't look like a bear fucking a tricycle
I just bought one of these, same color too. It's my first bike and I love it!
This just makes me even more hyped up for Saturday! Finally picking up my Grom.
That is awesome to hear! I hope you got a great deal!!!!
Have fun and ride safe,leave the stupid stuff for the foolish.Just ride n ride n ride.Fun,fun,fun.Be sure to buy a sports exhaust system,works great.
Heck yeah, already bought the Yoshimura R2 exhaust for it.
awesome, I dumped a cool grand into new gear and mods the first week I bought it:)
I got to use a grom for my MSF, reminded me of my old bmx. Fun little bike.
Clocked 2500 km and still love the Grom. Think it's about the power though not enough for people but for me it's perfect.

Exactly, it's the best 2nd bike you could own!

Just bought my grom last week! The cruise video you last did sold me on it. Its hard to take it to seriously but damnit its hilariously fun to be on.
as a second bike they are perfect!!! I'm so glad i helped in some way to make your decision, if you are in Florida be sure to search Facebook for all of the Florida groups.

Bro you’re always welcome over here duuude!! We’re always ready👌👌

I got the same mods and everything it's nice to hear somebody get the same top speed
I'm a little suspicious about buying used stuff, motorcycles in particular, and Groms even more so. No telling how they have been abused doing wheelies, stop-o's, not to mention all the crashing.
Then pay fools price new
If you change the oil religiously, they will go for 30,000 miles.
The problem is people that buy a Grom as their only bike. It's fun and everything but that novelty can wear off very quickly if you don't also have a real bike to take on the freeway/pass some cars
yah I think people should buy a used bike and then get the grom or the other way around.
You meet the nicest people on a Grom lol (old Honda ad)
the truth man! These are great little toy bikes.
Groms have their use, mostly as a stunt bike or play bike. Most people I know who actually keep Groms are stunters (the Grom is an insanely good stunt bike).
half of the grom riders at the 904 grom day last weekend were stunters!
I am really considering getting a Grom, hopefully by this summer. I've been looking into getting one for a few years and test rode once last year and again over the weekend. I even brought my camera during this test ride to have like a motivational like goal, kind of like the poster of a kitten hanging onto a branch.
Also subscribed, I saw some of your videos a while back when I was doing some research for the Grom.
Feel free to ask any question, I will always do my best to help my subs! Used will save you a few thousand for sure but I am seeing some killer deals on the Honda Grom Facebook groups right now for 2018's if you can buy one now, talks like 3199 out the door.
Just snagged my Grom with 500 miles 👍
Excellent, welcome to the party:)
from florida myself, got a grom too haha. Love the little nismo rant and mugen comparison, i have a s13 with a sr20 myself.
This reminds me of the Yam TW200 - same kinda thing just a cross purpose 200 with fat tires
Most likely picking up a grom soon. I live over in St. Cloud, we otta ride some time
I think I have seen 2 or 3 other grom riders in St. Cloud.
NicheRiding Not too many, more in orlando but they’re out there
I take amtrack from Michigan to Chicago and back for $55. Cheaper than gas money and takes the same amount of time.
3:33, hey! that's the abandoned Bank of America on Denn John lane!
Groms are more of a really cool scooter that an actual bike, that's what makes them cool and suck at the same time. If you compare this to an actual bike you may be disappointed, its a fun toy.
I own a big bike, I love the toy bike:)
From cocoa/Melbourne 🤙🤙 my booger was stolen had 220 miles on her....😂😂🤦♂️
Im out in Melbourne. Been getting an itch for a Grom, glad I ran across your channel.
There is a HUGE grom meet this weekend up in Jacksonville, about 100 plus groms will be there.
NicheRiding well if I can find a bike this week. I’ll be there haha
there is a guy somewhere in Central FL selling his red 2017 for just 2500 bucks or something, steal of a deal! Look on the Florida grom riders facebook page.
Nice mirrors! This will be my next bike for shure.
Where did you buy those mirrors? How much?
The mirrors are "Neverlandback" mirrors, you can buy them off of Ebay. I have the exact link in my mirror install video, the mirrors in that video are the old ones but in the info below is the exact link to the new ones I bought! I hope you get a Grom soon:)
Just bought those mirrors. Thx for info
I'm an older single woman and I got a 900cc. It don't look like no bug.
What are those mirrors, they dont look stock
good idea bro i got mine used with1700 miles for 2k with a decent amount of mods on it. i posted a vid if you want to check it out. its a 2014 and i still love it. i already doubled his miles and more within the 5 months ive had it lol. i offered him 2k an he said ok right away i should have tried lower.. he had two though so that might have helped also. ps. i use it as my daily in the city i live in. and it saves me lots of time in the morning splitting lanes when all the soccer moms trying give their kids a ride to school ..i work local though so it works out. though ive taken it to the valley here and we have a lot of side streets and old highways in california so i can pretty much take it anywhere. im at over 6k miles now.
They are truly all around bikes until you need the speed for the long distance runs or long highway runs!
I just bought a fully stunted out 2017 with 1600 miles for 2500. 2700 in aftermarket parts
I was wondering this same thing. Got a Grom Facebook group here in Lafayette, Louisiana. I just bought myself a 2017 Grom brand new and now everyone in the groups have their groms for sale. Like why? On top of that they are asking $2500 for a 2014. That’s almost what I paid for mine. Lol

Why did you go to the dealership at only 1,500 miles, when the manual says to go in next is 2,500 miles after the 600 miles mark?
valves say 1k miles last I checked. At 600 miles I only did the oil change so this was its first valve adjustment.
I live in NY can you suggest where I can get a used grom like u said ? Trying to learn how to ride before I grab a CBR600
go on facebook and look up grom classified group.
NicheRiding just sent them a request thanks dude. Looking on Craig’s list too
LOL @older single women in a VW Beetle. How do you know they're single? More odds they're married if they're older. So on another note ...who makes those Grom mirrors?
I never sell mine best bike I ever had yea my boys selling em off too so gay for a whole 2k back
If only there was a used Grom market in South Dakota
I honestly would say you should go on that facebook grom for sale group, find something in a state near you and then travel down there with a rental truck or van and toss it in and drive it back.
Hey I’m from Sioux City, Iowa pretty close to South Dakota and I’m looking into selling my 2017 Grom if your interested
That’s crazy he on road my mom takes every day to work
we all gotta live somewhere!
Where are you located
two reason they sell i would say cover probably 95% of riders... first is the standard.. they use it as first bike to learn to ride then move on up the ccs.. since there hasn't been mini bikes for awhile. the grom is the new one but more or less its most 250s you see on craigslist.. 2nd is the fad chaser. they don't really know what the grom is about they see it think its cool and buy it and for some reason it doesn't fit their needs.. I bought a used one with 1700 miles on it a couple years ago and I have 20600+ miles on it now.
I wouldn't buy a Grom if it was my only bike. The Grom would just be a toy from my faster bikes
Its all the new to riding folks upgrading to a bigger bike. probably Honda's plan all along.
Agreed, haven't even ridden my new one yet and I'm already looking at more
Check out Central Florida Grom Squad
I would like to ride with you. I live in The Villages Florida
I'm down in Kissimmee.
Just hit 1300 miles. Since Nov 2017. Won't be selling it's to much. Fucking. Fun👍 and I have. A R1 ;)
Yah, my zx6r is my speed toy and the grom is my goof off bike!
NicheRiding same. Dude it's perfect for fun in the city and commuting
Where'd you get that grom
McKibben Honda in Winter Haven, FL.
Can you finance this bike?
yup, they just won't let your payment be less than 75 dollars a month according to Honda so they recommend don't put anything down and on the first payment drop the huge down payment then.
NicheRiding just bought a brand new grom and they had a 60 month plan with my low downpayment that was 73. I opted for the 3 year though
Just got a grom a few days ago wanted one for about 2 years but everyone thought I was dumb I live off Conway and frequent Kissimmee a lot trying to find someone to ride with and keep at the same pace if you know what I mean because it is a grom lol I don’t have Facebook to get on the group rides but just trying to cruse around my instagram is j_r_y_s hmu if you want
it's time to create a quick facebook account:) You really need to join Florida grom riders and meet more of the local crew. I think most of the Orlando groms are on instagram, look up Orlando Goon squad.
Nice
Check out Blockhead... he’s an Orlando local that does Grom and Harley stuff, he has a great channel
Dude, my 2014 Juke NISMO RS is freaking fast.
ok....
The only nismo I like is the 370Z & GtR nismo
haha
These are no better than the old Honda 90 of the mid 1960s. I had one and could always go 65-70 mph on the hwy, plus they had much bigger wheels that wouldn't get caught in road grooves.
I paid 3750 for mine out the door
Great deal!
Shemegory dont feel bad bro, I just bought a 17’ with only 300 miles for 3 👌🏾💪🏾
I knew a kid in high school who drove a beetle his father was a higher up at a VW dealership. But he was gay so kinda explains why he was ok with driving a beetle I guess.
Yah that explains a lot for sure:)
Stupid comment and equally stupid reply.
DanLauzier this guy drives a beetle
Intelligent comment and equally intelligent reply.
My chinese TT250 would dust that grom. I got to 67 in full tuck GOING UP A STEEP HILL. It'd prolly do 70 easy on a flat. I couldn't ride a grom, I'd just look like a man riding a goat.
OMG a 250 can beat a 125?? WHO KNEW???? Genius.
My point is not that, but the fact that my bike costs a grand less BRAND NEW than a grom and is twice as good yet the rider doesn't look like a bear fucking a tricycle
than why are you even watching this? Stop trolling, who cares what you bought.
Can't help it bro, its a disease ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
its Chinese so its more like half as good for a 1000 less
