[@richardspahn7113]

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*

[@unrestrictedkc]

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

[@izaak1509]

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

[@swampitoffroad7753]

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.

[@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.

[@guycore5478]

Next week: Alaska: Ice Road Grommers ^^

[@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.

[@MrNick-]

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

[@supermotardedforever]

Damn thats a long ass ride on a grom!

[@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.

[@jjjfffppp]

How is your grom going 69mph loaded down like that. Very impressive

[@Jesus-qp8qh]

THATS WHAT IM SAYING!!! 😂

[@emiliotorres36]

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

[@MotoMantooth]

This was one crazy adventure man. Your poor little gootyholes

[@abbaby555]

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

[@aceintheplace8053]

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

[@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.

[@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

[@reallyoldfart6540]

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

[@bprolifik]

Perfect sticker placement @ 3:09 👌 so glad you guys made it safe!

[@jgb1549]

Nice! Biker spirit 100% certified.

What a beautiful place💙 Enjoy riding folks🤙

CONGRATS Guys!! and hats off to Honda for making one tough, 125

[@josephsakovich9374]

Congrats man on the coast to coast bet you can’t wait for a ride in a car

[@TheRedMenaceR]

so psyched to watch this!

[@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

[@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.

[@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.

[@mlittlegrizz]

Congratulations guys!

[@okatexoffroad1813]

Sweet series dude , had fun with you in Dallas

[@888jackflash]

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!

[@diablo-oi8gp]

Congrats photogromer

[@troy9er]

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

[@amyclick6214]

Wait! What would you do if AirBNB has a video doorbell? Sneak in the back? 🤪 Glad to see you guys made it through the storm safely! Thanks for sharing the comical & incredible adventure, can’t wait to see how you top this next summer ha!!

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!!

Great trip ! Greetings from Germany

Way cool! Thank you.

Anyone who knocks a 125..hasnt got a fuggin clue how much fun these bikes are. I've been the proud owner of a Motrac 125 M5 for 3 years now and don't plan on selling any time soon. Great job guys!

[@oakstream6041]

What a journey! Congratulations and hope your asses heal up. 👌😎

[@LuckysLair]

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

[@Photogromer]

thanks for stopping by, see ya there

[@jagermobile7521]

Hey man during the beginning of this coming up summer can you do a Florida to Cali so I could join you since I'm getting a motorcycle by then

[@machineofvirtue14]

6:50 ‘What a way to end coast to coast!’ What, dying? That.... is a way to end the coast to coast trip, yeah, but there’s probably less painful ones

[@Jason-xn5wt]

Happy you guys made and alive. Not done yet!! 😎🤙🏽🍗

[@phoenixarizona8441]

Nice ride we done this on scooters from Florida to Washington st AMT 50 100cc big bore 150cc carb and a Street Legal Baja Warrior 200cc torque converter belt drive runs 65 70

[@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.

[@fridakahlua6674]

As you entered the freeway i was like "oh shit, oh shiit, oh shiiiiit!" hahahhahahahaha

[@halo2ice17]

50 bucks in gas later :p

Honest to God feels like it tho

[@Alexridesmotos]

Glad you made it!! It’s been a long journey! Side note: will you be doing a Motovlogger helmet setup with the hero 6?

[@SoundScientist1]

You guys should have earned a spot in some sort of record book. This shyt is right up there with sailing across the Atlantic Ocean in a dinghy.

[@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

[@djsugar5386]

We’ll done guys

[@SDStienstra]

I think it was medium rain here in netherland thats the rain if it. Rains

[@gonecamper3510]

Stock tires. How many oil changes? Simply amazing - or slightly insane...

[@jamij2745]

I wish i could right now too... Im not old enough but i will go cross country on a motorcycle when i get a certain motorcycle.

[@chrisloydmas8499]

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

[@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.

[@familygromscarsfun3896]

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

[@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 👍

[@ronniecurnutt4309]

Congrats

[@harleys6262]

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

[@GetOffMyPhoneGoogle]

Man that's crazy you pulled that off with Groms. I think I'll be just fine starting on a 400, I was a little worried.

Hopefully, a Kawasaki Ninja 400 ABS KRT - AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Holy shit Wally vlogged!!!!!!

Exhausting trip I bet

o my god you started this in tallahassee i live thereeeeeee

With you guys having groms did you do anything aftermarket to make them go 70mph?

Enjoyed!!! Which cell phone holder brand & model were you using? Thanks!

Took me 3 days from Texas to Cali but takes them 25 days coast to coast and I slept at rest stops they at cushy bed and breakfast sad

I wanna see how 8000 rpm at 67 mile an hour For 4100 miles

[@injuredtabletennisplayer1474]

You’re the men.

[@gchsbus]

I have no idea how you did this on Groms. I am the small engine motorcycle touring warrior, let me tell you. I purposely purchased a 50cc moped with a mini trail engine so I could mount a 150cc engine on. I ride on the interstate, I go everywhere. So I can pretty much be the authority here on the matter. With that said, the way you sit on the Grom, I just don't see how you could do it. I never owned a Grom but rode several and it just seems uncomfortable for touring. So the fact that you ignored the pain in your knees and your back and made it happen give me a lot of respect for you. I may ride a few states away and stay then ride back but there is no way I would ride a Grom across the country. So my hats off to you on that. You are my heroes.

[@Photogromer]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@larshulphers1017]

Hi! Just found your channel and it's seems so good. Do u have a 125 or a 250? Also wondering if i should get one cuz im 16. Much love from Sweden

[@loveforthegame3]

Respect. I cant ride my grom more than 2 hours And you rode it coast to coast

[@sirenz_]

and here I am nervous about an 6 1/2 hour trip lol

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

[@shawnevans26]

I wonder if Honda makes off-road Groms? Maybe to do the England to New York trip like what Ewan McGregor and his friend did in (long way round)?

[@ericdelgado1303]

yea if you don't like the weather in Florida just wait 15 min it WILL change.

[@windridermaui]

Where do you get the bag/rack for storage on the back part of the seat of your groms?

[@KillroyX99]

Proper motorcycle rain gear is probably a good idea right about now.

[@reynaldorivera7641]

This is why I would have a poncho tent or a one man tent. Camp out under the bridge. That way you’re dry and can change into fresh clothes and sleep if needed

Coast to coast to coast 😅

[@OceanMikey]

How does your grom go so fast? Mine only hits 60 with no wind😂

[@robertpolkamp]

Alaska bound! Lol... I've seen scooters, cyclists, and a 1970 VW vanagon on the Alaska highway. Love your secondary routing. I did the same to Alaska from Florida albeit NOT on a Grom!

is that house in tallahassee on edwards st?

[@waxinggibbous7820]
