THE PUREST FORM OF MOTORCYCLING.
Want to have some serious fun getting from one place to another? As thousands of converts already know, that’s where the Honda Grom comes in.
Compact, low to the ground, pocket-sized in terms of price and parking, but such a blast it’ll put a giant smile on your face whenever you turn the key. Last year we gave it some sweet updates—a new headlight, new two-step seat, new bodywork, and a new muffler. This year you still get all that plus available ABS, along with a healthy dose of Gromitude.
Want to know more? The Grom features a 125cc engine, with a fun factor that’s off the charts. Its unintimidating size makes it great for beginners, and a total, flickable joy ride for riders with more experience.
So what are you waiting for? Get yourself a Honda Grom, and start the Gromance. You can do it, and we’re here to help.
The Fun Starts Here.
The Grom is more than just a cool little bike—it looks the part too. If it looks like the Grom is a blast, that’s because it is. If you’ve got it, flaunt it!
Check Out The Styling Touches!
Plenty Of Performance.
What makes the Grom so much fun? It all starts with a great motor. The Grom’s single-cylinder design is light, narrow, and revs fast. Fuel injection helps performance, electric starting makes it a snap to get going, and plenty of maintenance-reducing features mean more time to ride.
Bike-Sized Features.
Exhibit A: the four-speed transmission. You get all the control and performance of a standard motorcycle gearbox, and the fun of shifting and deciding when to shift. Exhibit B: Hydraulic disc brakes front and rear (plus available ABS) give you excellent stopping power.
Mighty Mite.
With its low 30.0-inch seat height, lightweight, low center of gravity and narrow profile, the Grom inspires confidence, and is a blast whether flicking around corners or cruising around town.

2018 Honda Grom Totalmotorcycle.com Key Features
G-R-O-M: For anyone remotely familiar with the cultural revolution birthed by Honda’s 125cc sport bike, that simple four-letter word conjures thoughts of enjoyment and fun. An instant cult classic, the Grom has captured the hearts and throttle hands of riders of all sizes and ability levels through its unique ownership of the small-bore sport category. A major portion of its charm is due to its diminutive stature, which is friendly to new riders, offers nimble handling, and is an absolute blast for carving turns. The pint-size Honda’s lightweight feel and peppy powerband contribute to its broad appeal, while the big-bike-inspired styling turns heads in every environment. With a four-speed transmission, manual clutch, and disc brakes, the Grom is as serious as it is delightful.
