What was your total spending Ron the coast to coast me and one of my homies are coming out there to Florida.

[@richardspahn7113]

On the coast*

Anytime I think my grom is to weak, I just remember this dude rode one across America 👍

Boost.life Anything is possible just not my first choice of bike for a long trip like this.

[@bobedwards8896]

i mean literally anything can do it... "coast to coast in a go-cart" "coast to coast on an electric scooter" but it wont be fun, or comfortable

Check out c90 adventures. This guys n girl goes through the America’s on a 90cc scooter. Great vids

[@kevinh4910]

I mean. Someone could WALK coast to coast if they wanted.. but that doesn’t mean walking isn’t a weak motorcycle

[@CheapskateMotorsports]

@@swampitoffroad7753 there's a guy, Plectrumz Adventures, who rode from Switzerland to Norway on a 50cc sportbike. It doesn't matter how weak your bike is, the only thing that matters is your determination to get there.

Next week: Alaska: Ice Road Grommers ^^

[@alfasierra254]

I've watched these series twice now. My last road trip was 6800 miles from hot to cold weather. Fayetteville NC to Tadoussac Canada then South Dakota back to NC. Unforgettable memories! Thanks for your videos.

[@AKAxeMan]

So 4000 miles at 125 mpg, that means you made the trip on about 32 gallons of gas. Not bad.

[@Rick_Sanchez_C137_]

James Collins So somewhere around $100 bucks for fuel to cross the country..... okay, THAT is the most awesome thing I’ve heard in a long time!

[@Refr619]

The bike itself cost about $3000

[@AKAxeMan]

@@Refr619 where can you find a Grom for $3000? With tax and everything you are probably closer to about $4000 to $4500.

[@Refr619]

@@AKAxeMan I live in southern California. I just bought a Razkull for 2800, they had from for 3000 but they sold the last one they had. All that was left was the Razkulls.

Good idea bringing the bikes on the other side of the guardrail at 4:25

What a great series!! Enjoyed it, nice seeing these little machines make the distance and yet make it look like so much fun. Can’t wait to see what’s in store next.

[@adventures1670]

Props to you, Ive shared this video many times to friends with the excuse of my bike isnt powerful enough to go cross country

[@TravelWithBradley]

Videos like this inspired me to do the same in Cambodia... My delight when I saw one for sale. People called me silly, but what an adventure through mountain, mud and dirt. Ahahhaaha.. Legendary little bike.

[@MotoMantooth]

This was one crazy adventure man. Your poor little gootyholes

[@aceintheplace8053]

Hell of a finale lol awesome series guys, I enjoyed the adventure.

[@abbaby555]

Was a really fun series to watch, thanks for sharing your adventure with us all.

[@victweezy]

I'm so glad you guys made it man. I have to admit I had worries about truckers that had been up for like 36 hours straight and groms on the interstate. I have really enjoyed watching this series of videos. Next time your in Las Vegas let me know and I'll come up with an extra bike for you to ride. -- The Guy with the Crusty Bobber, and his GF that dropped her new Indian Scout in front of everyone.

[@reallyoldfart6540]

Epic! Now I'll have to look at my Grom differently.

[@TruthSeeker9038]

I grew up in the country, there was a bridge next to my house, underneath it was a bunch of rocks that we moved to make a little fort. It was a really cool little hang out spot. Good times

What a beautiful place💙 Enjoy riding folks🤙

so psyched to watch this!

[@cdgarrett1]

Is there an aftermarket solo seat touring cargo bags and rack availabl;e for the Honda Grom? I want the Honda Grom for a local commuter but I want it comfortable enough I can ride it across country like you guys did.

[@ichibangrom9735]

Dude you guys got your ASS kicked with that rain. Super Storm on the horizon. Congrats on making the ride!! Also congrats on the Subs rising everyday.

[@pugsley2249]

Good job! This is what I want to do someday , a long road trip with dudes Did u guy bring a spare tanks as I know the grom tank is small

[@lizardgaming2815]

I know that beach I was there 2 weeks ago! It's located near Jacksonville FL u can drive ur cars and park on the beach. Cool place

[@Timberwolf35546]

Makes me want a grom even more now, but with all the steep/long hills here I would definitely have to add a few more hp to keep from ruining it.

[@g0nk]

Sometime when you guys are well rested can you do a details in your helmet setup for the trip? I’m curious about all the extra crap stuck to the sides. I just got the Sena Momentum Lite on your recommendation dude! Love it!!

[@harleys6262]

What kind of MPG were you guys getting with all the gear stacked onto the bikes?

[@dirkvangelder]

great ride and what i adventure love the grom.question how tail are you to drive the grom i am about 1.95 cm

Looks like open clouds rather than open arms!!! I hate ridding in the rain. However my windshield helps quite a bit.

You doods have some TESTICULOS, man. In 40 years I've ridden cross-country a few times.. but ALWAYS on 1000cc+ bikes. That rainy segment under the bridge, semis roaring by dragging water.. I laughed. How many times have I BEEN there? ** GROMS, man... I need one!

[@tinman3586]

How did they ride those things, with all that weight on the interstate? Or did they avoid the interstate freeways?

Just found yer channel from checking out the Florida Moto Meet flyer. Cool video, how typical is it that Florida thunderstorms drove you underneath an overpass for the first time LoL 😆 Hello from the Daytona area

Did u drop the grom? My break handle looks exactly like that from a slide i had 😂

[@familygromscarsfun3896]

Were your groms stock or did you have any mods done? that's freaking awesome!

[@FakeFido95]

How are you loaded down going that fast on a grom with no performance mods??

[@papatorr3669]

More power to these guys! They did ride Groms across America, and a Grom is too weak for some things. I recently sold my much beloved Honda Helix 250, which would comfortably make it across America because it's too weak for the mountainous area I live in. 450 class is much better, like a Burgman 400, for going over mountains. A 650cc twin, like SV650 or Ninja 650, for playing on mountain roads. And a 750 four cylinder to get you coast to coast. You could go bigger, but I doubt that you'll get there sooner. 500lbs is my limit for fun and practical to ride and wrestle.

[@chrisbroesky2932]

Did 2500kms myself on my 2014 going through BC mountains to Vancouver. Would I do it again? I wouldn't hesitate! I love Groms. I got compliments and interest even from the big bad Harley guys. It's about having fun 👍

I have to ask, can you point me to the mods to get my Gromm up to the 60’s mph? I want to tour with my 2017…. But Hwy speeds have been about 53 to 56 on mine! Thanks!

[@Photogromer]

It's 125cc motor so it's going to be more of a factor of wind, elevation, your weight. These bikes were completely stocked. On the west coast we were stuck in the 50s as we got back to Florida where it's flat and wind was on our side we hit the limiter at 73 a few times drafting trucks.

[@chrisloydmas8499]

Bout to have to do the same thing. From Washington to NC. Selling my Saturn. Buying a grom and heading out.

[@ngk330]

Does anyone know of a gps that I can set a speed limiter on? Like won’t take me over 55 mph roads

[@rjwhipple8896]

You can put in on Google maps avoid highways and it'll take all the back roads possible to your destination.

[@TheMakarov9]

Were you guys running higher gear ratios on your sprockets to get 69mph on that trip? I can only get about 59mph on my Z125 with stock gearing and I'm 6' 230lbs What was your average speed with your backpacks and extra weight on that trip I'm asking because I'm thinking about making a trip using secondary roads from Tampa Bay to Missouri

[@Photogromer]

stock everything. It's all about elevation and wind direction. If the wind is at your back and you're on flat ground with a draft you'll hit rev limiter 73mph or at least high 60s easily. If you're going uphill in new Mexico where the elevation is high going into the wind you'll max out at 32mph. I'd say we averaged low to mid 60s when full throttle.

[@TheMakarov9]

@@Photogromer Cool, thanks Looking forward to the July 5th ride with the Grom Squad We just moved here last August and wanting to get to know some of the other Grom/Z riders around here Great channel!
