Quick take

"Great starter bike and long term bike"

Personal notes

I got my grom off facebook market place after failing to find any 125 that I was able to touch the floor on as I have an inseam of 27inches, I tippytoe it with zero platform and with platform I half foot it with zero lowering or shaved seat, its uper comfy, great for long or short rides and very cheap to run! The only issue I've ever had is that the 2013 grom only had 4 gears and maxes out at 70mph (if you're lucky) , its great for shorter riders, super comfy and light (I'm able to lift it by myself) and hondas are known to have great engines, never had an issue with her and she is one of the favourite bikes I've come across

What I loved
  • comfortable seat and sitting position
  • good if you want to do stunts
  • reliable
  • small and light
What felt challenging
  • tend to have alot of ghost neutrals
  • fairings are very delicate
  • tend to have issues with revs
