After owning a 2018 Grom for a year, I was very happy to sell it and get a 2006 CB599. I feel like I succumbed to the Grom Marketing Lifestyle trap and the bike really wasn't that fun for a more normal guy. I love watching talented people with disposable incomes ride groms though!
If you can only have one motorcycle, I agree you should get something more rideable. If you can afford multiple bikes though, the Grom, Monkey and some of these other minimoto bikes are incredibly fun.
Hey buddy I went riding today with my 1969 Honda CT70 with a Big Bore high performance 125cc engine 4 speed automatic transmission so I went riding with three buddies that got Grom dude I let them try my bike and I tried there's all man it was way too cool I am definitely going to give me a Honda Grom hopefully the middle of summer or sooner right on man good to see y'all take care down in Florida
Honda guy seemed clueless, the 5 speed new monkey already out in Asia, as for the dax/ct70 they would not tell you anyway even if it was coming out, best way is to find out on Asian sites.
@@jw4111 I’m sure if will come to the US this year. The new grom is available since April in Europe and the new monkey will be available in august in Europe.
@@eastcoastish That sounds right i have the SP model coming haps honda here in sarasota fl told me two more weeks it should here love your videos and the GTR in your garage.
@@weilking4664 Upstate NY here, black and yellow by the end of this month, blue in august and SP all the way in September... Preordered black but would've loved to have snagged that SP, congratz : (
So for once something is available earlier in Europe than in US? :) I've bought my Grom in April but picked it up in May since the weather was awful. I even managed to have a low-side on it. Don't recommend the stock tires. I'm replacing the front one for the diablo rosso on saturday. We'll see how it will perform.
Thank you for your time.
OMG BRO have you seen the pics of the yoshi dual exhaust on the new 22 grom? IM DYING TO HERE IT AND HOPE ITS NOT A 1OFF CUSTOM!
They released it: ua-cam.com/video/Tav8PzbETFI/v-deo.html
I ordered one, so stay tuned!
Sweet video! Glad that you and your family were able to make it to #barbersmallbore2021 #barbersmallbore Hopefully you'll get a 2022 Grom!
I just picked one up, and also just sent you an email :)
Those Groms are looking pretty dang cool!
Steady always has bad ass builds at those events. Maybe next year I'll be able to attend

Yes, I’ve seen this info as well. Seems odd would update Monkey for Asia but not U.S.

@@ratscoot thanks! Will new Monkey have gear indicator?
Ditto. That guy was clueless about the 5 speed Monkey that’s coming.
The coolest Small Bore bike is a Monkey.
I’m hoping you buy the new grom. That way I know what my next bike will look like 😆
Awesome video. I'm curious if you have any desire to build a custom Ruckus on your channel.
Maybe, I'm always looking for something new to do.
This is all very cool, but Honda has no inventory to sell… I was looking for a Monkey, but no dealerships have any available…..
Ladies seem over it
4:33 What kind of exhaust are those? I can't find it on the Yoshimura website.
Custom
When is the 2022 Grom coming out
No one seems to have an exact date yet, from what I've heard some time between the end of this month and next...

@@JimmySnakes my dealer told me July 9th for my SP. I’m hoping that’s still happening.
