I found a Grom in Davenport IA last Friday. I picked it up yesterday morning. 6 hours of driving later I'm home with my Grom in Des Moines, Iowa. This brings me here for the wealth of information. Love the forum.

congrats on getting a grom. looks like your grom is held down nicely in that trailer.

 

[capebretongrom]

bike looks great. can't wait to hear your input on how you find it.

 

[GromGuy]

those mirrors really do stick out, in a bad way. are you going to change the mirrors?

with a trailer that size you could of brought home two groms lol

Welcome to the forum glad you found us, please share your moments on the grom with us

Black is looking good. How much did you have to pay to walk out with the grom? Just curious on what they are charging in IOWA.

Have you took it for a run yet?

The mirrors are ok for function but look fugly. some might change it, some won't

So jealous right now. Nice strapping system that the first time I have seen a bike strapped like that. I wish I had a trailer too. Welcome to the forum.

I am gonna guess that most people will get dropped off at the dealer and ride the grom home.

 

[BlueRidge]

awesome.. congrats..

It was a 3 hr one way trip on the interstate...wasn't going to ride it home. All I could find was my large straps from my car trailer and my Jeep gets better milage than my diesel truck so I grabbed the trailer. I have around 100 miles on it. I LOVE it. I normally ride a harley chopper for comparison. This is the bike to have in town for sure! I took the mirrors off...

 

[GJohanns]

Would you ever risk a Grom on something like 35/80 or 235? How well do they handle in the heavy traffic?

 

[Thibodeaux]

That's awesome, Congrats

 

[jjj_85]

Well...I ride 235 then get on 35/80 for a short haul to work normally on my big bike....I would never do it stock on the Grom. I can comfortably cruise around 50 as of right now bone stock. When the performance market catches up I see no reason why it wouldn't be possible. I hope trail bikes starts building parts for these. Love them in the pit bike scene. As far as heavy traffic, I LOVE it. Gets around way better than my Harley. Only thing I will say is people never see you so I apply lots of horn and middle finger.

Forgot to mention what I payed. I think it was around $3400 $3500 OTD. It was $2999 plus all the BS.
