lol well, hopefully someone gets a kick out of my dumb intro idea and the video was of some help to someone. What do you guys think about how she sounds now with the Yoshimura exhaust? Thanks again for watching and for all of the support! If you guys don't mind, please slap the "like" button on the video and throw a comment down here too to help with UA-cam's algorithm.
Love the way they sounds I’ve had mine for about 2weeks now 2022 grom I recently installed a intake and boy what a difference in performance like night & day lol
Oh yeah man, sounds killer! Lol 100%! That's the fun part with these small bikes, modding them and really seeing the before and after performance difference. Always fun trying to eek out that extra .1 horsepower so you can try to outrun your buddies lol!
Sounds great man! It's awesome that they include an o2 bung. The little 125 really opens up with some good exhaust. It helped my CT a ton. Thanks for the video buddy!
Oh yeah, it's something every exhaust manufacturer should do. I understand why they don't though as most people won't utilize it but it's a nice selling feature, I just wonder how much it adds to the overall production cost though and to see the difference and what makes them choose not to - would be interesting. lol it really is wild what a free flowing exhaust can do for these little 125s! Plus, it just makes it more fun when you're making a little racket - or should I say a lot? lol! Thanks for the support, as always, I really appreciate it bud...
Yessir, I modified and painted the belly pan and then had a big accident with it lol! If you want to check it out, here's the playlist with all of the videos involving the Grom build: ua-cam.com/play/PLHWIzhoe1xHsZwMdw_MGByL9I3_gsEKVP.html
just received my rs9t system and will put on this weekend. pushed "buy" after first outing on my '22 sp as a little more power/sound can only be better. great video, thanks for info & entertainment
Oh yeah, you can't beat the Yoshimura exhaust! We got lucky to get ours because there's a massive shortage on them now and everybody's trying to get their hands on one.
Maaaan, I'm jealous lol! I sooooo want that dual high mount for mine but sadly I just can't make it happen right now. Do you have an ETA on when yours is supposed to ship? I got to see and hear it in person at the Barber Small Bore event this year and it's so sick, definitely puts your Grom on another level for sure!
@@HondaProKevin I am actually #65 in line BUT really I’m #9 to get it. Yoshimura told me that all regular paying customers will be getting theirs BEFORE dealers and distributors get theirs. I think that is awesome of them to do. I was told to expect a November ship date. I think it will be worth the wait. 👍 Plus, it gives me time to buy and install an Ohlins shock without possibly having the duals exhaust in my way during install. - That’s awesome you got to see and hear the exhaust. “Another level” is definitely what I’m going for. 🤟
Surprised you grabbed neutral each stop with the phantom N, been a huge problem on my grom and usually takes a few shots and some push and pull to grab
Sadly there were cops all around my normal spot so I had to hit a different on ramp and it did have a downward slope to it. It's definitely quicker but not that much, I wish though lol ;)
Yeah I manage to shift to the same gear on my 22 Grom also, usually 2nd or 3rd. I never noticed that something might be going on funny with the GPI (gear position indicator) also!
I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one having some issues. In my top speed run you can see it happen in 4th gear and then now in 2nd for this video. Part of me thinks it is more than the GPI though as the transmission let me shift to 2nd and then the GPI went haywire while the transmission wouldn't let me shift to 3rd. I don't know though lol, maybe it's just her breaking in and it'll go away... hopefully, but we'll see!
@@HondaProKevin I posted in the forum too, but also there's this thing where the transmission occasionally glitches under -hard- full acceleration, and the power slips just for a fraction of a second, like it tried to fall out of gear, but only managed to partially slip and catch again. Or maybe the cogs actually disengage because barely caught, and re-engage in different slots, not sure.
lol thanks man! I tried to see if I could make myself crack a smile like I did in this intro ua-cam.com/video/Fdnir6_ul24/v-deo.html and it worked lol which always makes the tedious part of editing a little more fun when you can crack a joke or two while hopefully getting someone else to crack up - at least a tiny bit. Appreciate the support, trying something new and going out on a limb is hard so the kind words are definitely appreciated bud ;)
I'm 99% sure I saw a guy on one of the Grom Facebook groups post that he had to do some cutting and welding to make it work on his 2022. Trying to find the post again but their search feature sucks lol. Wish I could give you a concrete answer or some evidence with a link etc, sorry bud ;)
I just stumbled across a couple posts about it a few days ago and have put out some feelers to a few contacts. Long story short, I would be able to say a lot more if I was still running a Honda dealership like I have for the last 15 years but the owner closed the doors a few months ago so my way of getting direct info from Honda's tech line about this is a little limited right now. I'm confident Honda will figure it out and if need be release an update / recall to fix things but I'm super curious to know just how many have been reported to Honda... I'm working on trying to find out some info though and hopefully I'll have something I can report back on soon ;)
@@HondaProKevin thanks so much for ur time and this has kinda made me wanna shy away from buying a new one.. Looking forward to see if anything will get figured out!!!
Looked like it was quite a bit faster on the freeway compared to the stock exhaust! Awesome exhaust but very loud. If you get the dB killer please do a comparison
Oh yeah, she's definitely more peppy now! Will do, fixing to get it ordered and I'll do some sound comparisons etc with some dB tests and all that fun stuff.
No sir, just the exhaust but that on-ramp does have a slight downward slope to it. More so than the first one where it's stock but when I was out shooting this video it was blocked with cops so I couldn't hit the same one. Intake, ecu tune etc videos are coming very soon and with trips to the drag strip too so we can really see how much of a performance difference they make.
Lol love the Prius and glass pack reference, cracked me up! Yoshimura makes a different baffle to turn the volume down a bit. Mine just came in and I'll be doing a video soon showing how much of a difference it makes.
Yoshi's are nice pipes, got one on my Super Tenere and love it. However $600+ for a little performance gain and better sound on a 125 Grom? Big pass in my book. Now if I got one for free like you I'd be all over it.
Soon! Was thinking either this weekend or next. Probably the latter so I can get some clutch springs in and be able to launch a little harder, I've been slacking on getting that knocked out. I need an assistant and 3 extra hands for all the crap I need to get done lol!
I got it from Yoshimura directly. They should have some more back in stock soon, they've been selling like hot cakes and then when you add in the rona mess, it'd made some stock issues for quite a few businesses.
Heck yeah, congrats on snatching one up! Be careful, they are super addictive to modify once you start lol! Thanks man, appreciate it. Can't wait to see how she looks once we finish these body mods with paint...
Definitely need the sound insert, Kevin, or you'll be annoying folks all over the 'hood. Look forward to your tuning adventures and don't forget, Groms hunt in packs!
lol naaaah, let them be annoyed while I'm having fun! I'm thinking about snatching it up though, I'm curious to see what it sounds like with that in there and every now and then you do want to go into stealth mode for some shenanigans so it can't hurt to have it handy. lol you're right! Gotta love getting a pack of Groms together, instant and stupid fun is always right around the corner!
@@HondaProKevin it’s illegal for retailers to ship any illegal CARB performance parts to California :( I hear people have to send them to Nevada (Vegas) and then pick them up but was wondering if there was another way.
Lol maaaan, that's a load of crap! I remember seeing mentions of CA and it not being legal etc but I thought it was just on you and not where businesses couldn't ship them to a CA address etc. Sadly, that's the only way I could think of doing it with them being that strict. Or if you have a friend / family member outside of CA that would accept it and then just turn around and ship it to you. That's crazy though, I feel for ya man! It shouldn't be that much of a pain to put a flipping exhaust on a 125 lol, geez!
The day you see me stretch a bike is the day I quit riding lol! I'm not hating on guys that do it, it's just not my cup of tea as I want a bike that handles well. I don't want to spend money to make my bike handle worse than what I started out with lol! If I was building a show bike that was never going to be ridden, that'd be a different story but even then I'm not always sold on how one looks when it's stretched. I could ramble on forever though lol but long story short, no extended swingarms coming anytime soon but I appreciate the suggestion ;)
lol well, hopefully someone gets a kick out of my dumb intro idea and the video was of some help to someone. What do you guys think about how she sounds now with the Yoshimura exhaust?

Like I said before, Kevin, you have a mischievous streak! 😉
Mones in the shop right now getting this installed, so excited ❤
Love the way they sounds I’ve had mine for about 2weeks now 2022 grom I recently installed a intake and boy what a difference in performance like night & day lol

Lol 100%! That's the fun part with these small bikes, modding them and really seeing the before and after performance difference. Always fun trying to eek out that extra .1 horsepower so you can try to outrun your buddies lol!
The Yoshi is the best-sounding Grom exhaust, IMO.

Yoshi has always been known to do that cause it’s always quality first focus
Used the belly pan? I have.same one and cut a bit out too fit, and heat wrapped the pipe and it touches the belly pan and don't melt or anything.
Yessir, I modified and painted the belly pan and then had a big accident with it lol! If you want to check it out, here's the playlist with all of the videos involving the Grom build: ua-cam.com/play/PLHWIzhoe1xHsZwMdw_MGByL9I3_gsEKVP.html
Getting my grom tomorrow. Love the look of the exhaust but I hate the sound. I'm going to go with that extra part you showed to make it quite.
just received my rs9t system and will put on this weekend. pushed "buy" after first outing on my '22 sp as a little more power/sound can only be better. great video, thanks for info & entertainment
I have the exact same exhaust on mine I absolutely love it
Oh yeah, you can't beat the Yoshimura exhaust! We got lucky to get ours because there's a massive shortage on them now and everybody's trying to get their hands on one.
Love it bro! Stay safe out there!
Thanks bud, really appreciate the support and you do the same ;)
Do you think there is any way to still have a bottom plastic fender with this exhaust ?
Love the fact you're also 6ft2 and a grom fan 🙌 . Can you tell me your inseam as you fit the fairings perfectly. Great content thanks
That Yoshi looks sick. I ended up ordering the dual high mount for my SP…. because resistance was futile. 😂 💰💰
Maaaan, I'm jealous lol! I sooooo want that dual high mount for mine but sadly I just can't make it happen right now. Do you have an ETA on when yours is supposed to ship?

Dam 0 to 60 7 to 8 sec quicker with that exhaust nice

I really envy you to be able to buy it. I'm so miserable, I got scammed by a Honda dealership and got nothing for half a year.
Does the Dual High Mount Aodonly Racing Exhaust fit the 2022 Grom?

Do u have any input on this weird noise suddenly happening with 2022 groms? Plz help!
I just stumbled across a couple posts about it a few days ago and have put out some feelers to a few contacts.

@@HondaProKevin thanks so much for ur time and this has kinda made me wanna shy away from buying a new one.. Looking forward to see if anything will get figured out!!!
Dude imma get the same from and set up and some other things I'm just checking out vids before I get 1 (:
Wow 70mph?? Is it all stock except for the pipe?
Looked like it was quite a bit faster on the freeway compared to the stock exhaust! Awesome exhaust but very loud. If you get the dB killer please do a comparison
Oh yeah, she's definitely more peppy now! Will do, fixing to get it ordered and I'll do some sound comparisons etc with some dB tests and all that fun stuff.
Awesome, can't wait!
At 12:47 did you only have the yoshi on at the time or did you have an aftermarket intake and an ecu tune?
No sir, just the exhaust but that on-ramp does have a slight downward slope to it. More so than the first one where it's stock but when I was out shooting this video it was blocked with cops so I couldn't hit the same one.
Intake, ecu tune etc videos are coming very soon and with trips to the drag strip too so we can really see how much of a performance difference they make.
@@HondaProKevin ohh, and you reset ur ecu after putting the exhaust on so you could go 60mph into doing test videos?
Nah, didn't reset it after the exhaust.
How did you find the exhaust? I’ve checked all over and it’s on back order.
My homda dealer ordered it was here in 3 days!!
Honda
I bought it , personally I don’t care for it , it to loud like putting glass packs on a Prius . Looks great anyway
Lol love the Prius and glass pack reference, cracked me up!
Yoshimura makes a different baffle to turn the volume down a bit. Mine just came in and I'll be doing a video soon showing how much of a difference it makes.
If you really don’t like it I’ll buy it from you
Yoshi's are nice pipes, got one on my Super Tenere and love it. However $600+ for a little performance gain and better sound on a 125 Grom? Big pass in my book. Now if I got one for free like you I'd be all over it.
70! on a grom?? Ha, that must be scary xD, only from the yoshimura exhaust as well. Crazy.
lol yeah buddy! It's surprisingly stable so it's not really scary until you start thinking about how small you are next to the big trucks etc lol!
So when does it go back to the drag strip?
Soon! Was thinking either this weekend or next. Probably the latter so I can get some clutch springs in and be able to launch a little harder, I've been slacking on getting that knocked out. I need an assistant and 3 extra hands for all the crap I need to get done lol!
Whats the torque spec for the header bolts?
20 lb/ft per the service manual ;)
Does the bike need to be tuned after changing the ehxaust?
Not really. Buy if you're after performance from it. Its best to have a filter and a tune.
Is this full exaust street legal because I would love to get one for my Grom!
No it's for race use only.
Where did you buy your yoshimura exhaust at??
I got it from Yoshimura directly. They should have some more back in stock soon, they've been selling like hot cakes and then when you add in the rona mess, it'd made some stock issues for quite a few businesses.
@@HondaProKevin cool thanks dude just got hands on a 2022 Grom myself so I’m super new. Yours looks great by the way
Heck yeah, congrats on snatching one up! Be careful, they are super addictive to modify once you start lol!
Thanks man, appreciate it. Can't wait to see how she looks once we finish these body mods with paint...
@@HondaProKevin hahaha lol I’m already noticing that, super stoked dude good luck with your bike I’ll be watching
Great clip. I just can’t seem to get over the price of the Yoshi pipe though… so pricey!
Did you have to reset the ecu after install?
Is the baffle in or out?
No baffle with the exhaust.
Does the loop on the yosh stick down more then the stock exhaust?
Definitely need the sound insert, Kevin, or you'll be annoying folks all over the 'hood. Look forward to your tuning adventures and don't forget, Groms hunt in packs!
lol naaaah, let them be annoyed while I'm having fun! I'm thinking about snatching it up though, I'm curious to see what it sounds like with that in there and every now and then you do want to go into stealth mode for some shenanigans so it can't hurt to have it handy.
lol you're right! Gotta love getting a pack of Groms together, instant and stupid fun is always right around the corner!
It’s actually better with the loud exhaust other drivers can hear you next to them it sounds amazing in person 💪🏽💪🏽🔥
💥🔥🔥🔥🔥👊🏻
What’s a loophole to get this system in California?
Wait a minute... you seriously can't buy it in California?
@@HondaProKevin it’s illegal for retailers to ship any illegal CARB performance parts to California :( I hear people have to send them to Nevada (Vegas) and then pick them up but was wondering if there was another way.

@@HondaProKevin hell yeah bro I hate it here lol. Saving up to move out ASAP! California is not vehicle enthusiast friendly at all
sounds like a soda can lol
Now you need to put on an 8” swing arm….
The day you see me stretch a bike is the day I quit riding lol!
I'm not hating on guys that do it, it's just not my cup of tea as I want a bike that handles well. I don't want to spend money to make my bike handle worse than what I started out with lol!

I could ramble on forever though lol but long story short, no extended swingarms coming anytime soon but I appreciate the suggestion ;)
Honestly i don't like either...
That's more than fine bud, like they say - different strokes for different folks. If we all liked the same thing, it'd be a boring world lol ;)
Kinda sounds like a shart fart
