    Video of the new Honda Grom -



    The built in Taiwan bike is known as the MSX 125 in some places, but in Japan and now the US, the bike will be known as the Honda Grom. It is a comeback for Honda of its iconic Monkey motorcycle.

    The 124.9cc engine just about produces 10 bhp and sports a 4 speed gear box. Without doubt the most desirable aspect of this motorcycle is its cute looks! The tiny lil bike has big bike features including a projector headlamp!

          Wo hooooo, a naked bike that is cute and not aggressive

          As always, Honda makes gem of a machine.

          Cheerz!!
          The real beauty lies in throttle's twist!!

          Headlight can be replaced, Head cannot be. Wear a helmet.

            The bike looks cute and is quite similar to yamaha tw200. But what are the specifications...The rear tyre looks huge for this 125cc bike.

              MSX = Mini Street X-Treme. Really want to see one of these in flesh&blood. Those 12 inch wheels look...ummm...well...dwarf! As for specs, here goes:

              Engine Type Air Cooled, PGM-FI
              Cylinders One
              Displacement 124.9cc
              Max. Power 9.6 BHP @ 7000rpm
              Max. Torque 10.9Nm @ 5500rpm
              Gearbox 4-speed

              Dimensions 1,760 x 755 x 1,010mm
              Wheelbase 1,200mm
              Seat Height 765mm
              Fuel Capacity 5.5 litres
              Kerb Weight 101.7kg

              Tyres Front 120/70-12 ()
              Tyres Rear 130/70-12 ()
              Suspension Front USD Front Forks, 31mm
              Suspension Rear Mono shock
              Still wondering what's the top speed, with those 4 gears...maybe around 80-90?

              Biking is not about how many Km/h you put on your Speedo. It's about how many miles you put on your Odo. Ride Safe, Ride Long!

                        @ Honda
                        Why you miss this cool factor when it comes to bigger bikes???

                            & here it won't get much buyers for that purpose with those specs!!

                              [MENTION=31702]111diablo111[/MENTION] yup that's a point to consider as people here look for more FE and other things rather than the bike's performance and it's features. . .
