Now normally I think Honda is pretty smart but this bike is dumb. $3000?? A SYM Wolf 150 goes for that and is near enough to full size. A Cleveland Cyclewerks Misfit or Ace 250 is only $200 more or there's this:

I'm betting this Grom is a goner as quickly as the equally stupid SH150i
Dumb, really dumb. Then again people buy $2700 Ruckuses.

Here's more.

Gotta admit , the SYM Wolf Classic is a BLAST to ride.

Exactly Cookees. Plus it's based on solid technology from a quality company. Even Scott Colissimo's bikes have Lifan engines and are built by CPI. I could see Honda building another S-90 type bike with this engine but this Grom is nothing more than a Madass from Japan.

Remember that 125cc bike you sold for $1200? Even that made more sense than a $3000 Monkey Bike.

Hey Cookees, didn't these guys ask you to become a dealer? Pushrod, Third World, Honda clone. At least you wouldn't have to invest in expensive diagnostic equipment.
