Honda grom scrambler concept

Looks cute but the suspension would be in question. Grom suspension is short travel and too soft. Then again that wouldn't stop people from buying it.

I'm picking up a Grom next week for my MSF course. Not really sure how well it's going to work. Concerned it may ge to small, maybe good for shorter riders. I do look forward to playing on it.

Ed up you'll be fine. I'm 6'3" and the grom is still the most fun I've had on two wheels. There is something that puts a smile on my face when I pass a car on the highway on it. The look on the other drivers face is priceless

I owned a 2013. The triangle fits a full size adult. You will find it just fine for your needs. It's just very small and low and hard to see in traffic.

Looks awesome, lol
IMHO, that's what they should have done with that Bulldog concept thing shown a while back. Up the ground clearance and suspension travel a wee bit, a metal skidplate, and not have the exhaust headers routed directly under the engine.

They are every where. Road with one on the interstate last week and another on the Galveston seawall.

This looks "AWESOME". It would be great to have mini trail bikes again. Honda has forsaken this in the US since the 1990's. At that time, they re-introduced the a modernized version of the CT70.
If Honda did offer a configuration similar to this, the 125 cc would be a good size for modern times. A 150 cc or 175 cc would be better though...

There was a guy at the KY Kick Down show the other weekend who had one, which worked, and was show quality.

Ain't that the truth.
I found that the trail 70 with the stamped frame did not handle nearly as well as a "real" motorcycle. Those little fat tires are not much good.
I had one of these in a 49cc in 1972.
Sexy sells. So does "cute".
Knock yourselves out.
I like the Grom scrambler! That would compliment the RV very well. If it makes it to the states, I will get one.
