    Figured I too would bring up an old thread. A friend and I both bought a brand new one each in Hamilton, August last year. Have put a 14t front sprocket on, Renthal bars and Contitwist tyres, use it for the fun of wheelies and getting to work.
    Have put over 2000km on it now. Still runs amazing.

    Come very close to buying one of these to replace my wife's scooter... Money isn't there right now but I think it might be in the cards at some stage.
    I mean she could ride it to work every day and I could take it off her in the weekends... Hahaha

    Haha, classic. I bought the Red one from HH. I think you guys were in there just after me, Grant told me about yaz coming to get one each.

    Great to hear you're enjoying them. I've ridden mine pretty much non-stop since then, don't own a car so it's been my daily commute with my "bigger" bike relegated to weekends only. The Grom hasn't missed a beat. No mods yet (apart from getting rid of the OEM tires), prolly not going to do much to it to be honest.

    Love it!!

    The Kawasaki looks quite nice! I'm a fan of smaller bikes and while I don't particularly enjoy the styling of the Grom, it's interesting to see what else comes along in this segment.

    Have you guys seen Mordeth13/M13's video of his opinion of the Grom? *hides*

    Smile 2016 Grom / MSX125 SF

    So the local Honda dealers told me they aren't going to be bringing in the new Honda Grom (MSX125 SF)

    So I fixed it. Our internet order arrived last week
