You’re going to want a Honda Grom after watching this

My week long review on the 2020 Honda Grom 125. I commuted on it in city traffic, some in town curvy roads, but didn't take it out on the highway as it tops out at just 62 mph. I put on just about 100 miles on it. Thank you Jay for letting me borrow your spare bike after your accident!

[@TheCdubbleyoo]

Unless there are some state laws I don't know about, anyone in the USoA at any age can GET ANY bike they can afford. That doesn't mean you can ride out legally, but there are those that doesn't seem to stop.

[@molonlabe9602]

In the country that I'm living most riders are on 125cc auto scooters. I have 3 of those and recently bought myself a used Suzuki GSXS 150...19 HP and plenty fun on the roads that I need to ride. Young driver favorites are the auto scooters, Honda Wave (semi-auto) and the Honda MSX (Grom). My future bike is going to be the Duke 390 or a 300cc - 400cc twin. I used to ride 650's in the states.

[@DoodleOnAMotorcycle]

HALLELUJAH!!!!

[@101steel4]

So is there no test for a motorcycle in America? Here in the UK it's a long, expensive journey to get a full motorcycle licence. CBT, theory test, and a two part practical test. Just to ride a 125cc you have to do a days training (CBT) and it only last 2 years.

[@cisium1184]

Every US State requires both a riding test and a written theory test. But it's important to remember that the US is a federal republic of independent States - in a lot of respects it is like 50 separate countries. Driver licensing and motor vehicle registration are done at the State level. Except for laws governing roads on federal land, there is no "in America" when it comes to driving or riding bikes. (It's a bit like the EU, or like how Scotland has its own Parliament and legal system. Except moreso.) Which State's licensure law applies depends on where you live. Some States require you to take a course and *then* pass the tests. Other States will give you a license as long as you pass both tests - whether you have taken a course or not. There are courses available in every State (again which may or may not be required). All of them are designed to teach to that State's riding and written tests. These courses are typically two or three days long, but you can find courses that last a whole week if you want. All the courses are designed to take you from never having been on a bike to meeting the license requirements: basically they are like the CBT with the Mods that you guys have - but all at once instead of in stages. The courses may be offered by the individual State governments, or by private companies licensed by the State. In most of these courses, the tutors administer the riding and written tests to the whole group at the end of the the course. Everyone who passes both tests in the course receives an endorsement from the course that they can take to the State Driver Services Office and get their license directly. Obviously, if you don't take a course (because your State doesn't require it) you have to make an appointment with the State to take both of the tests. Courses have really only become popular in the last 20-30 years or so, and a lot of older riders didn't take one. The vast majority of new riders take the course because it is a faster way to get a license, is safer, and is fun and pretty low stress. Another big difference with the UK pertains to the license classification. Unlike the UK's tiered-licensing system (A1, A2), I believe that every State in the US offers only a simple "M" class license. That means that once you get your M-license, you can ride any bike that is street-legal. You can ride a Super Cub if you want, you can ride a Triumph Rocket 3 if you want. There has been talk of tiered licensing in some US States, but not much has come of it. Regarding this, it's important to remember that many American bikers get their car license *first.* Learning to drive a car at age 15 or 16 (again, depending on the State in which they live) is kind of a rite of passage in the US, so many Americans have already taken a driving course and the tests for that, and then they take the course and tests for their bike license later. The exceptions to this trend are the dirt bike riders, who often ride offroad from the time they are little kids and then may get an M-license before learning to drive a car. Finally, the M-license is subject to renewal every few years, but renewal is just paying a fee. You're not required to take any more courses, although there are a lot of voluntary courses out there and they are increasingly popular.

[@jaybosher6144]

@@iMotoTactic00L and thats the problem, fanboys will always buy stuff like this regardless. No it does matter, this season you could walk into any shop near me and pick up a ninja 400 for 4k. Thats a bikenthat actually usable, is better in every way possible, and cost the same? These are toys and will be prices higher as they are a niche but if they raise the prices they will further drive away people from them. Kawi had all these features on their bike besides the 5 speed and was cheaper than Honda now. The dash is vastly better and it has an oil filter and no starvation issues when popping up the front tire. My point is these bikes need to stay cheap to keep people interested and new buyers around or they will stand side to side with something like a ninja 400 and look at the grom and walk away from honda

[@bfarm44]

Binelli TNT 135 is a grand plus less, five speed, four valve, oil filter not spinner and a bit faster and bigger but not by much

[@RideYEG]

I agree with pretty much everything you covered in this video. Such a blast commuting on the Grom and I think it's one of (if not) the easiest bikes to learn on. Not to mention it's affordability. Just subscribed and really looking forward to your upcoming content!

[@kosta1605]

you make such a good point for people just starting off and people that don't hold the skills just yet to do things on bikes. Start off with a smaller bike and train yourself on EVERYTHING. Then slowly move up in cc and go from there. Too often you see smaller people like yourself get a bike that is just simply too much for them. Not saying thats what you did but a lot of people end up doing that cause if you ride a motorcycle you must go fast! Start small and work your way up.

Here is an old might you might fall in love with if you can find one or find someone who has one to loan it to you.. The Honda VFR 400, that's right Honda made a 400cc VFR which is surprisingly quick like a Honda 600c CBR bike. Unfortunately there aren't many in the US and Canada they were mostly sold in Europe. The 750 and 800 VFR were build using the same technology. This video is from HeroRR who lives in the US. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJqqdX2HhrCWoa8 - Enjoy! :)

When I was in Thailand, most of the bikes I saw were the 110cc prequel to the Kawasaki Z125... I saw them with welded rebar sidecars attached, and several times I saw them with four people on them.... in Thailand the 110cc is the family car... or at least was the last time I was there.....

[@davidvance3527]

They're a great little bike, especially if you're just riding around town running errands. But your right in that if you're planning any distance, it's going to be back roads, not highways. 👍😎

As a learner myself I love how determined you are to become a better rider.

Hi Doodle on a Motorcycle. I would love to see you go Hooligan on the Grom. That would be cool as long as you don’t get hurt.

[@pookiewookie7679]

She sure talked about that a lot 🙄Like she's ever gonna go 'hooligan' lol

[@RoadsOfOz]

I have a Honda CB125E that I use for commuting. It’s not fast but uses very little fuel. I get between 400-500 kilometres per tank. With so little speed and acceleration, it makes you plan corners better as you do not want to lose too much momentum.

[@muzz3564]

"You can go full hooligan on the street and not run into a parked car." As the dude in the shop crashes into a lift. Might wanna think about that statement for a second or two...

I'm so tempted to get one to learn wheelies and knee downs, and not wreck my 600 doing so

[@MrSWUSH]

Grom is the ultimate learner bike, it was my first bike and it really helped with getting comfortable on 2 wheels and gain the confidence to play with how to shift properly and leaning/body position without getting into too much trouble. It really helped me understand the fundamentals of riding a motorcycle and transitioned effortlessly to my SV650. I bought a used grom to learn on and it was the best $1,500 ive ever spent....years of fun!!!

[@TopshelfJunior]

SV650 yeeeeeeeeaaaahhh ! Same.

[@Edward-Not-Elric]

I'm probably going to buy a Grom to start out on. Although I'm about 5'10 190lbs so I'll probably need to stiffen the shocks a bit lol. I'm a beginner, the price point is great, and I'm not a speed demon. That compiled with the community support for these bikes makes me pretty confident that I'll get a lot out of my future Grom.

[@DBartWest]

I have many miles on Gold Wings. I wanted something small and light to put in my trailer and go to fly-ins, sort of a pit bike. I picked the Grom and love it. I am 77 and can no longer ride the heavy bikes due to balance issues and this thing is not only fun, it looks great also. And yes, it does not go fast. I had mine to just short of redline slight downhill at 64-65 mph. I call it a cult bike. LOL

Goody 2 Shoes? Did I see you X the DY to pass? Great video. Slow is great. 60 mph is my regular riding speed, even on the circle around Hotlanta. My Silverwing 600 would go over 100 mph, but 2 of us rode coast 2 coast(separate bikes) without ever getting over 60. People were super friendly and came over to talk to us at almost every fuel stop. I've heard stories from Grom travelers that say the same. People aren't as friendly when you ride a sport or loud-pipes-saves-lives bike. Thumpers are great bikes. Thanks for the great review, great editing, and light/entertaining atmosphere of your video.

Thanks for the review. I want to eventually do adventure riding. I also want to learn to do wheelies and burn outs so I think a grom might be a good place to start and build skills quickly.

[@badmondaywang]

in singapore, we have class 2b 200cc and below for ur first licence. U need to wait for a year after that to go for class 2A courses and test to get a class 2A licence (400cc and below). Then you have to wait for another year to be able to go for another course to get class 2 licence which enable one to ride 400cc and above. Literally the government made it so difficult to get a USA equivalent beginner bike here. 3 years if u don’t waste any time. And we have high import tax and a bike ownership certificate which only valid for 10 years (costs abt 5k usd) . And for any bike it added up costing 3 times more than in USA. And we don’t have twisty mountain roads here as singapore is just a city state. The high wat speed limit is 90km (50 miles?).

[@1998lemuel]

There's a thing I started practicing recently. Imagine duck walking the bike, but with only 1 leg... So my butt is scooted outside the bike, so I can flat foot with that 1 leg, then slightly lean the bike towards it to create this solid tripod thing with me leg and the bike and then just push forward or backward with that 1 leg when I need to. If I need to turn the bike, the bike is somewhat leaned over already, so turning that direction is easier. If I wanna go the other way, I just switch legs. Idk how well it'll work with heavier bikes, cuz my bike is only about 430ish lbs.

Because it's the exact same bike as the real Moto 2 GP bike, to say it's the best handling street bike on the Planet is an understatement!! Even though it's a 765, the engine design and build is unique to the Moto 2 Daytona. I shouldn't have but I gave it a couple real blasts and it wheelies in 1st and 2nd. The bike is unbelievable! Going forward, I am going to gently break the engine in and that's it. My dealer gave me the original shipping crate and all the packing material. When it is broken in I am going to drain the gas, run it dry, drain the oil and pack it away in the crate.

[@philliplangley9302]

You can change the sprockets on the Grom to get a better top speed and on your bike check some of the custom seat companies to see if they offer a lower seat or you can go to a trim shop that recovers seats they can modify your seat to make it lower.

As a rule (at least for old school riders like myself) I always count my gear position. It’s a mental thing I do in the back of my mind as I ride.

Actually we have 3 different motorcycle drivers licence levels in Sweden. "A1" is 125cc "A2" is up to 500cc "A" is 500cc and upwards. (Its not that simple but pretty much, there are power-levels in kw) 16 years A1, 20 years A2 and 24 years A. If you get a license for A1 at 16 you can take a test for A2 at 18 and A at 20 but by then you will have invested like 5000 dollars on just drivers licences. Pretty insane. 😂

Dangggg

[@terminatorx2545]

You passed a car on a curve and double solid line. Nice 👍

[@CrustyBiker]

Surely it makes more sense standing on the brake side when manoeuvre bike in a carpark!? , as always have the brake lever covered...but down side is stand on wrong side..

[@bonesrhodes3762]

----- I'm sorry, but there's nothing in reasonably possible that could make me want a Grom .

[@nestlesnipes8353]

Average highway speeds are 45 to 55 max the grom has no issue riding on the highway.

[@supericeman1]

I love your videos, just passed my mfs course and got my first bike, of course it's a 24 grom in blue rasperry and I love it!

[@gargar209]

groms. trendy. Overrated. slow. unsafe brakes imo. over priced. sorry so salty.

[@johnw65]

Feliz Navi Grom... Happiness is a Navi and a Grom I've ridden the S90, CB160, CL350, CB450, GL1100, V1300CT, the NVA110B and now the MSX125 Grom!

[@DoodleOnAMotorcycle]

LOL!

[@robertthrem3382]

I think you're wrong I think it's 1:25cc is 16 year old can ride with the license but you have to be over 18 for over 125CC

[@Hancock97ful]

It is not only in Sweden..I live in Germany, here is it the same, think in many more countries in europe

[@ThrottleBackRubberDown]

My Z125 was one of my favorite bikes ever. I regret selling it daily and will be getting another one soon enough.

[@zedorda1337]

I bet she got the Grom just to get her license. Since in most states if you can't pickup your bike from a fallen position you can not have a license to ride it.

[@scott547]

Great stuff Doodle! Keep up the good work! Love your channel! 😎🇺🇸🏁

[@kurtinfl]

I first discovered your channel when watching videos featuring my current bike. I was just wondering if you could have a second bike, would you get a Street Cup? Maybe that's a video topic: Top 5 Bikes what would you buy, realistically, if you could manage a second bike.

[@DoodleOnAMotorcycle]

Mmm.... I think I’d do a dirt bike or (after this!) a mini bike - something with a totally different purpose than my current bike

[@sakiyehwalker7326]

I really like this bike how much it cost and I am 5ft tall I need my foot touching the ground

[@sixdsix5028]

Groms are very low to the ground. You could be 4' 6" and probably ride it fine.

[@tombaily29]

It's so light I don't have to park it properly. Can adjust by lifting it lol.

[@danielkaz6280]

Looks awesome 🏍

[@RichUp-z9u]

Its funny doing a grom review and then all the time show 3 guys in their garage on NOT groms

[@Miwiz1]

I do 74mph with mine here in LA 😁 i have all the goodies in it

[@larryhouse3776]

Got one ordered as my 3rd bike. From MT09. ZX14r. And now Grom.
