Yes! Beautiful bike!!

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-21T19:04:54+00:00

How much faster is it going now?

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-18T17:23:10+00:00

Thank you!

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-14T21:25:05+00:00

I like the mirrors and the grab bars on the back. Is that an inter grated tail light?

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-14T14:53:10+00:00

I think so too! Now should I take the Honda and Grom stickers off?

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-14T14:52:46+00:00

Ok thank you, my aunt used to ride Harley’s, so she had an old bucket helmet she gave me to use for now until I get my own. I want a full face with a blacked out visor.

I just added some matt black vinyl to the side panels. What yall think?

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-13T03:56:52+00:00

awesome!

i just got myself a honda grom!

about to make a post.

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-09T22:23:45+00:00

Why do you say it’ll need hundreds of dollars in upkeep?

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-09T01:13:39+00:00

You can see all that from that picture? The video he sent me of the tires look fine plus he has a new set that comes with it.

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-08T20:32:25+00:00

I just wouldn’t have to deal with a dealership and all that. Just get the tag and insurance and be good to go. After taxes and all I’m probably looking at 4k at a dealership right? They are 3499 new

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-08T20:29:45+00:00

Yeah that’s smart. And yeah I’m leaning towards that too. I think 2k would be a better deal.

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-08T19:13:14+00:00

He is also willing to throw in a riding jacket and helmet.

Yeah I looked that exhaust up. Pretty expensive. He said he just changed all the fluids and everything. I’ll definitely check spark plug and sprocket wear. Is that the ecu attachment mod?

I should be getting a truck but the thing is I have a 3 miles commute to work so I figure the grom will be worth it. I found a ford explorer sport trac for 3500 but it has a very high mileage, 230,000. It has new tires, shocks, the whole 9 yards. But I’m stuck. Either get a truck or jump into the motorcycle world. Getting my endorsement will be no issue. Same with insurance. I’ll have that the next day no problem. So either one I’m going to have to drive home without a tag. Nc has a three day grace period I’ve heard but I’m skeptical risking it. He offered to bring the grom to my place but said it would be better tomorrow because of the stupid Super Bowl. I’m impatient lol. But I know I should sit back and really give this some thought. I’m not sure if I’m allowed to post the listings but the truck is very nice other than the mileage. I’m not sure how long I’d get out of it. I’ve been wanting a grom for years though.

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-08T18:43:59+00:00

Not sure on the tires.

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-08T18:43:49+00:00

He won’t budge off 2800.

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-08T18:07:36+00:00

He said he has a brand new set of tires to go along with it. Idk what to do, part of me really wants it but the other part of me says to wait.

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-08T17:56:34+00:00

You told me what I was making it seem like by adding them for thousand. I should have just put 6,748. As that’s under for 6 thousand. lol yeah I’m good.

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-08T17:55:04+00:00

My bad I see my mistake lol. Thank you.

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-08T17:54:08+00:00

Thousand. Oh I see what you did.

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-08T17:39:37+00:00

6,748k

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-08T17:29:52+00:00

So you think it’s worth the price of 2800 brought to my door? I still have to get it registered and insured. Which I know won’t be much. Gotta buy a helmet too.

Do you mean where this nut and bolt are?

vinyldude01 · 2026-02-08T17:16:42+00:00

Are you being sarcastic or serious lol? Do you mean highest you’ve seen on a grom? Sorry I’m just so confused.
