Mike's Machines: what a find. Very thorough review. I sat on one of these. At 1.85 metres I found I was sitting on the ridge between front and back. With a flat seat, I could ride one. I reckon if they did a version with 15 inch wheels and a 150 cc engine, it would look better and go better.
I don't mind the wheel size myself. I've ridden a lot of scooters and the nimbleness outweighs the limitations around town in my opinion. However, a slightly bigger engine would make a big difference to the Grom's appeal and practicality.
@@MikesMachines @1990 Its highly unlikely they will make a 150cc variant because in Europe the A1 license allows up to 125cc bikes. That is why so many companies produce 125cc.
correction, the groms were in aus from 2015, about 16 months before honda sold the new model. many had imported them after honda australia took 2.5 years to decide to sell them
Whoa I used to watch you when I was in highschool and was one of 3 RUclipsrs that inspired me to get into riding. I"ve gotten back to it recently after a 5 year hiatus
The Grom is designed for 2 up riding so one larger rider should be ok. I'm no lightweight (90kg) and I had no issues with the Grom coping with the weight.
In reference to the 'wheel-diameter'...since it's unlikely anyone will be riding the machine 'on the rims' the 10" diameter is irrelevant.The 'Grom' must surely be a 14" to 15" inch 'measure-across' as my own Honda 'Metro'scooter is at 13" and a half inches from 'tread-to-tread'.
Damn those British, they invented the horrible imperial measurement system, and now they all talk metric, like kilometers per hour, meters and centimeter, and here in America we are stuck with feet and inches. But thank you for the nice review.

I was hoping to get one here in Aus, didn't expect to find an Aussie review! Thanks!

Thanks for the review! Excellent! Subbed
Very informative review. Excellent!
if you mod the airbox, get a new camshaft, new exhaust and flash the ECU its a pure beast.
hello your videos are very informative, could you do a review for the kawasaki z125 pro. thanks
If you don't mind asking around how much do you weigh I'm trying to get a good indication of what weight would be suitable for a grom

It's far worse, it was those dam Frenchies! The French cleric Gabriel Mouton (1670) is credited as the originator of the metric system.
He's in Australia mate

It is just small enough to be impractical, maybe if it was 15 percent larger, it would be just ideal.
