I'm interested in the suspension. Finish that off before you to the motor. I can hardly wait for that too. Great video

[@gromzen]

That bar pad is legit, bike is coming along great!

[@harveynorton98]

Finish of suspension before starting the big bore kit. Love stock to not ❤️👌🏽

[@michellestaley3726]

I really want a grom now

[@madstorm631]

I love it when you and the guys go out and kill switch/kick stand each other! Please keep up the good work!

[@alonsorayan2195]

[@stekkerbox]

good lookin' kim

[@mattc420]

I want to buy a suspension for mine. Just got a nicer feeling seat. I can only imagine how a nice suspension upgrade would feel along with my new pro tapers I haven't getton installed yet, but will In a day or too.
Amazon sent me the xr 50 or tapers and I realized it after I had everything clamped up to it ready to almost ride it. And realized it was too small.
Super bummer. Anyways
Hopefully weather permits tomorrow so I can add a rear roller bung. And a bar that lets passengers hang on. Like to tie down a box on there if I need to.

[@mattc420]

Mines all set up for off-road. Maxxis off-road knobbies. Brand new. And it's loud like an xr 200.

[@mattc420]

And can ride wheelies, I can test to that. After my back heals. It's geared 14 front and 35 rear.

[@gizzyguzzi]

So, Racing Bros mono R shock at $300 vs YSS std shock at $150. The RB shock is available in 3 spring rates. Worth it?

[@Photogromer]

Depends on what you’re doing. I’d say the YSS from stock is 80% improvement and Racing Bros is the last 20% improvement. They are good but only if you’re needing to really dial in for your weight for racing.

[@andru2drsq10]

Ninth!!! Also, start the big bore kit!!!

[@JoeJ523]

See idk what rear shock to get for my 2020 Grom because my wife goes on the back most of the time not all of the time and usually when ordering you go by weight.

[@Photogromer]

YSS adjustable is more than fine. www.msx125accessories.com/honda-grom-msx125-rear-adjustable-yss-gas-shock-with-reservoir?search=Yss has them, it’s in Thailand so shipping looks expensive but they charge a lot less for the shock so it evens out. I have them on my groms, it’s 100x better than stock.

[@JoeJ523]

@@Photogromer okay thanks I tried opening that page and it cannot be found?

[@jarradjames5868]

I guess I'm just too stupid to line the top holes up. I can't get them there to save my life. I suck at everything.

[@mrmystery8689]

Yah

[@imjstn8569]

Does this racing bros shock fit on a 2020 honda grom?

[@Photogromer]

yes they are the same

[@chucksass4670]

He looks like Johnny nails 👀

[@Talha.20]

For What height is a Grom?

[@tkokaos1815]

Go to your local motorcycle dealership and throw a leg over a grom and sit on it! Best way to figure fitment things out.

[@Unconwheels]

There is no point in me saying "first" or "second to like" because if I refresh the video will already have about 5k views and 1k likes.

[@feREXtheBLUE]

400$ for one shock? Jesus...

[@Photogromer]

Check out the YSS if your budget doesn't allow for the best shock, it's better than stock but if you're serious about the best suspension RacingBros is where it's at.

[@72twist]

Love your videos man...not bein a dick but I think its pronunced Ky-Mare-A. Its a mythical she-beast.
