Does your bike have that crankwhine also? I own an 09 its kinda annoying but everyone says its OK. All 08 and 09 have it.

@@Slimdawg2011 well im gonna buy a 2009 this Saturday but like I said i dont get it. The noise should go away while pushing the clutch or not

Steven Spielberg fears me:)

A light smoke zero gravity corsa windshield

@@jakee_117 Very clean, my next purchase

@@Anonami5348 glad I could help, it really helps keep wind off you on the highway

@@jakee_117 That's exactly why i need it for, I feel all the wind on the stock windscreen. doesn't feel comfortable trying to fight the wind all the time

Yes

Imo 2010

31k with no engine issues!

@@jakee_117do you still have it ? I just got a yellow 08 it hit 9,000 miles yesterday , just an Akropovic exhaust. It has the punch at the left and right side of my VIN on the triple tree, does that mean it had the crank replaced and clutch /coolant components? And how do you know if you had the service bulletin or not ? Iam confused lol

@@jromez631520 honestly the best way to verify is to call Honda corporate from thier website and ask them, they can see your bikes service history and let you know for certain just ask about any service bulletins performed and recalls

You can call Honda corporate to see if someone had the clutch/ crank recall done if the clutch/crank service bulletin completed you should be fine. A lot of early bikes had the clutch whine issue and the first owners had it fixed

A SP1 RC51

It’s a saddleman track seat👍🏻

Yes it’s just magnaflows with a resonator delete, I had it straight piped with a resonator and it sounded really drony on the Highway so I slapped on the magna flows

@@jakee_117which magnaflows were they? 4X9s, 2.5”? Did this have any drone either

@@a.kblur04 no drone

Worried about my 08 after watching this, my bike has a punch mark on the left side of the vin above the first letter and a punch on the right side below the last digit/letter, so does that mean my crankshaft was replaced or just the clutch and coolant part? My bike sounds just fine so idk, just hit 9,000 miles yesterday , it’s one of the yellow ones

Common misconception, they're to protect the upper fork leg from dings and the dust seals, if they were over the lower fork they could bind on compression

No problem at all for me aswell on my 2009

All mine does is burn some oil, other than that she’s problem free except a electrical issue I fixed that was killing the headlights. My oil burning has decreased significantly since changing to motul 7100 and using liquid moly mos2 additive.

I’m picking up a super low mile 09 and am hyped to finally join the liter club

All 10 and up bikes have most of these issues ironed out

I’m not sure a shop put them on for me:/

@@jakee_117no gate keeping

Track and canyon Performance. Sc59 comfort and reliability 2007 sc57 I wouldn’t get the 04-05 just because it has 310mm discs it went up to 320 after 06 if you want a 08 but want reliability buy a 10-11 and up

Also the 07 is a much better commuter/ tourer but it’s a less aggressive chassis power is almost the same but the 07 is like 25 pounds heavier

I got told from mechanic that the whine doesn’t do any damage to the bike, it’s just something that happens to those models.

Duals and stock cats

The easiest way to tell is to check your oil often some burns are to small you can’t tell by smell or sight

Mine 2009 and no burn oil aswell 😊😊

About more than you can afford - pal - Lexus

About $600 total

@@gideoncone6024 it’s a fancy Toyota lol

K5 preferably

Glad I could help! Those oem tensioners go bad at around 20k I have a manual cct but unless you race a lot at high rpm a new oem is a more convenient choice

Fair enough!

Buy a 10👍🏻💪🏻

I honestly think -06 and -07 are the best looking. But they are getting quite old now.

@@robertmolldius8643 only rare issue I’ve heard. If on then is snapping timing. Chains I blame the tensioner so I’d go with a manual cct

Envious. Brand damn new!!

I bought it BRAN NEW in 2008, no issues at all so far very happy with it, Honda took care of the recall, I have over 40K miles just take care of it..

The Navi is carbureted. 60 months for a Grom is outrageous, but if you do 5 years, $5k over a span of 5 years isn't all that much. Check out bikes like a Yamaha R3 as well.

@@Oakleyshooter yeah I’m debating it. I could def pay it off way before that five years. Just the way groms are going is why I’m debating it. The shop I was talking to just got three last week and all are already gone. Going to keep saving for a bigger down payment and will probably do it by end of the month or start of next year. I was also looking at the newer cb300r. As that would basically be the same price as the grom. The Navi being carbd isn’t bad tho. People want to pretend it’s such a terrible thing but Honda has sold a lot of Navis and most owners love them and have next to no problems with them. For half the price of the grom it gets me out riding sooner too.

@@Oakleyshooter I said fuck it and applied for financing last night lol. He was giving me a rough guess on payments at the highest interest and longest term. My credit is sitting around 815 so I don't believe I'll get that 8% interest he was calculating.

Did you? What do you think?

Mine doesn’t burn oil

Let me rephrase that. "Buy a zx10r".

@@eugenioteoli9225 I hear it was a hit or miss.

did you have to buy a tuning license for it? i am in for a restrictor remover tune today from a tuner that said he could do it..but he said i need to buy the licensing for my ecu specifically

@@benst2594 I paid around 400 dollars for the license and the dyno tune, the license alone cost 100$ from Woolich Racing but your tuner must use there specific tuning software.

Yep the boss said we need a new car before another bike, she’s right our Lexus IS dying lol

@@jakee_117 Great review. It's too bad about the Lexus IS. Those tend to be exceptionally well built vehicles . Hopefully you have a new car and a new Grom for Christmas.

@@123edwardzpad thank you homie!

Are they fast? Thinking of getting one.. coming from a v6 mustang
