Put a hundred miles on the Grom and really having fun with it. I can ride her at 90% around town and have a blast without getting in trouble. I could never do that on the RC.

Rode the RC to storage and decided to keep her - will try to find time to ride it more - forgot what a rush it is to ride.

I bought it with 84 miles on it for $3,200 otd at a Harley dealership. A salesman had bought it for his wife/gf who apparently wasn't into it. Stock except for a Yoshi slip-on.

Lots of fun and aftermarket is fairly well developed, especially in Thailand where they've been around for awhile. I've started to get the itch already...



Check hondagrom.net - few deals there if you happen to be close to a seller.

Those things are serious fun Have you seen any of the videos of groms racing? Glad you got to hang on to the RC51, sounds like you have a strong connection to it

There's a Grom/Ruckus event coming up near the Dragon mid June. http://www.motorcycle-usa.com/304/22...-Event-15.aspx Trying to work out a way to haul the Grom up with my S2000

Added a rack and case for practicality.
