You made me feel alot better about this idea.. I was getting stressed over the idea with everyone's $1000 suspension recommendations and stuff.... 😵💫 love your videos.
That's fun. I had a 2015 Grom that I did minor dual sport style mods, many of which you covered. It was fun. I ended up selling because I can only maintain one bike at a time and I felt limited by not being able to ride highway with my buddies. It was fun on the trails but that from fork would bottom out if you looked at it sideways. I had bought new fork oil and springs but just sold that stuff with it. And I had the Kenda big blocks. They did great.
I put some Shinko big block tires on my 2022 SP Honda Grom and it now functions as my off road bike. Night and day difference in it's performance off road from the stock road tires. It is now the ultimate off road explore anywhere bike. Best introduction to off road adventure riding for people new to the dirt. All it really took to accomplish this was the tire change.
At 3:03, commenting on the "knobbies" with the Knob Creek casually lurking in the background... well played sir. 👏👏👏 Looks like a fun little bike. My buddies might disown me if I downsize from my WR250 to a Grom though... lol.
We bought a travel trailer earlier this year and it has a receiver on the back bumper with a 300# load limit. I’ve been thinking of getting the red/white/blue Grom and putting the knobbies on it. It would look like my Africa Twin. Buuuut, a yellow Honda Monkey would look just like my very first bike which was a yellow Honda Z50 with the head and tail lights and chrome fenders. 🤷🏼♂️
I'm surprised that nobody has come out with a pipe mod that brings the pipe up over the clutch cover/oil fill then back to hook in with the muffler. It might cut a little weight and seems like it would get some ground clearance back.
THAT THING IS SWEET. Been thinkin of doing the same but aint got the time. But thats how it usually is lol. If ya got the the time you aint got the money. If ya got the money you dont have the time
Hey man love the videos. Ever consider having a subscriber meet up or ride together? I’m in Idaho but would love to make the internet riding buddy a real riding buddy!
My name is Merrill speed I am 14 years old and I am looking to get my 1st grom I think that would be a super fun bike to ride off road I love riding off road
anyone have any idea where to get those front turn signals he had on there I would LOVE to put those on my grom. ( also yes I did order the kenda big blocks and can't wait to rip!!!!)

Front mud guard gives it the “Spy vs Spy” look.
BMW GS vibes 🤔
I have 2017 Honda Grom with 21000 miles. I ride 90 percent fire roads. A lot of fun.
I think the grom would be fun for group rides and adventures with other mini riders
Somebody's going to love that biz

Love the Adventure Grom series!
I bet my Lil Critter would go mental for an Adventure Grom.
Is the border open yet? I'll meet you halfway!
@@DorkintheRoad dude if I had the cash it would already be in my garage 👍🏻
Thats so cool, make EVERYTHING an ADV bike
I was inspired by the best!

Get both lol
Nice video. Grom dual sport. Creative and practical.

Cool vid, I'll have to keep this in mind when I get the Knobbie Navi early next year, first thing will be tires ✌️
Looks fun to ride. 🤘🏻
Awesome video my friend has a Grom. I really wanted a smaller bike for my first bike but ultimately went with the Africa Twin.
Cool Build
Adventure Grom, Party Time...
Adventure Grom...

Awesome!! Happy New Year!!
6 months later:
"So I bought another Grom!"
;-)
That's what happened last time 😂
Hey man love the videos. Ever consider having a subscriber meet up or ride together? I’m in Idaho but would love to make the internet riding buddy a real riding buddy!
"I'll buy that for a dollar"! What about a Honda Monkey exhaust?
Nice! any plans on reviewing a Honda Trail 125?
I'd love to if I could get my hands on one
Have u tried the big block tyres on wet roads
@dork in the road did you end up selling it?
Did you ever sell the Grom?
My name is Merrill speed I am 14 years old and I am looking to get my 1st grom I think that would be a super fun bike to ride off road I love riding off road
very cool :)
How much do you want for the Grom?
I'm probably gonna list it for $3k
Have you seen the GPX ADV 190?
Question: Do "off road" tires work well on the road? like can I consistently use offroad tires on the road
given the weight of the bike; and the size in general. id say it won’t be a problem
anyone have any idea where to get those front turn signals he had on there I would LOVE to put those on my grom. ( also yes I did order the kenda big blocks and can't wait to rip!!!!)
Can't wait to turn you loose on Navi.
I would love to get my hands on one
Nice. A++
