Hi Guys, I've owned 3 Yamaha R6's in the past, with the last one being stolen a couple years ago. As others have said, you need to be able to go fast etc on the bigger bikes to really have fun, while this little guy should be more fun for getting around town. I've been in enough trouble in the past on the R6's, so this smaller size should help. I also didn't feel like getting into payments again and stumbled upon the Grom a couple weeks ago when I was looking into scooters for something cheap with good gas mileage. Just couldn't pull the trigger on the scoot and glad I didn't. Love that the Grom looks and should feel like a cycle. I've ridden many motorbikes in Asia and that smaller size is great for just getting around town etc. My dealer here in Reno isn't taking deposits since he said they don't have a VIN number yet. I'm on a list to be called, but I think I'll try and get back in there and insist on a deposit. Although I initially only wanted black, the red has grown on me and would be happy with either at this point. I have plans to move to Hawaii in the next year and figured the Grom would be perfect for exploring the beaches there.
Nice to meet ya'll. I've been trolling the last couple weeks and figured I'd sign up.
Lots of great info on here already.
