      Grannys Twerkin I’m glad you enjoyed it :) I’m just starting out so I’m not as appreciated yet. I started in December and I’m pretty happy with the amount I’ve grown since then :)

    It's very doable to ride small bikes long distances as long as you aren't in a hurry. I have a cheap 230cc enduro that can barely reach 70mph, but is much happier around 55. I have done over 400 miles round trip with it. Lots of back roads and state highways!
    Great video and hilarious commentary. Just as a suggestion, it's not a bad idea to carry a fuel bottle. I have an MSR 30oz bottle that I strap to my bike, and it has saved me before.
    P.S. I am from Nebraska. I will be waiting for you lol.

      OddBallPerformance yes I would have to agree I didn’t have any gripes with it overall just the normal exhaustion that entails being on a motorcycle for extended periods of time. Thanks for the tip, I’ll definitely get one when I plan my trip down to Florida! And I’m glad you enjoyed it!

      @@theprofessionaldillweed6235 If you want to help your rear end in the seat look into a Coleman Maddog seat protector. I put one on mine, and for just $20 it makes quite a difference.

    I'm am seriously considering a Grom for my daily commute which is 24 miles one way through the mountains. However that includes about 1500' elevation climb in about 14 miles with a 55mph speed limit.

    I'm moving to Australia in a couple months and i want to travel the country by motorcycle.. do you think a Grom would be a good choice? Because it's pretty cheap brand new

    ik this video is old and you probably changed the name to grom to get more views or clicks on the video but why not at the very least tell people who are watching that youre on a kawasaki z125 pro instead of calling a grom which it is not and has different characteristics for people who actually have a grom and wanted to know what itd be like

    • @Speedpunk650
      @Speedpunk650 2 роки тому +4

      I weigh 115lbs and drive a new fully stock 2023 Grom. The top speed is 58 miles per hour. Period. It will not go any higher no matter how good your maintenance is. Even with the right gas, oil, and lubricated chain, etc. If anyone tells you different they are either lying or have aftermarket parts.
