HONDA GROM Custom
Japanese Custom Culture
Webike's Opinion
Here is a "HONDA GROM" custom by Webike community user "SC54". The concept of the Grom, "a motorcycle that can be played with on a daily basis", has been successful not only in Japan, but also in the U.S., where the land is vast, and in Europe, where sport riding is popular. This model is equipped with the GP-Performance RS-R exhaust inherited from the previous GROM model. The design that rises toward the rear was retained, while each part was brushed up. The GP-PERFORMANCE RS-R exhaust is not only a racing exhaust, but also has a powerful low-pitched sound with a high volume and sound quality. The oil temperature around the engine was raised to nearly 120℃ during traffic jam in a city and summer touring, but the oil cooler was installed to reduce the oil temperature. A fender eliminator kit was also installed to refresh the rear area and give it a more custom look. Different body types have different concerns about the riding position of a mini bike, and the all-aluminum machined adjustable step kit, which replaces the stock step, allows the rider to choose from seven positions. The step bar is boldly machined while maintaining the width to fit riding shoes, and the offset position can be adjusted without increasing the amount of vertical change too much. Every detail of functionality has been pursued, such as the same foldable design as stock for low damage and an ingenious anti-slip shape. In this age of numerous and wide-ranging 4mini custom parts development, more people understand what "Big fun in the small body" means when riding a mini bike.
