I bought a new used grom! Using my new grom as an example I go through five maintenance procedures you should do to your used grom right when you get it, or any grom for that matter in order to save money! Either way, they’re good skills to learn, and it’s my goal to demonstrate to you that they’re not that hard!
1. Wash Bike 1:58 minutes in
2. Clean Lube and Adjust Chain 2:41 minutes in
3. Change Oil and Check Screen 5:00 minutes in
4. Check and Adjust Valves 8:25 minutes in
5. Check Tire Pressure 11:25 minutes in
Tools/Parts Used:
right engine cover gasket (clutch side), set of feeler gauges, a basic set of tools including sockets, used oil container, a quart of Rotella T6, torque wrench, kerosene, Motul waxed chain lube, plastic bristle brush, crush washer for oil drain plug is optional.
Some Key Information:
Intake Valve: 0.004 - 0.001 inches Exhaust Valve: 0.007 - 0.001
Oil Capacity 0.9 liter (0.96 US Qt) at draining, 1.1 liters (1.16 US Qt) at disassembly
Clutch Cover Gasket part # 11394-KYZ-900
Oil Drain Bolt torque: 18 lb-ft (24Nm)

Toolset I use: amzn.to/2Zfwc8X
Oil I use: amzn.to/2Zfwc8X
Torque Wrench I use: amzn.to/2Tg7GR2
Chain Lube I use: amzn.to/368PxtV
Chain cleaning tool I use: amzn.to/3bJR8Y0

I would add fork oil and brake fluid to that list as well. Axles, wheel bearings, brake pads, etc. A bit further into it but just as critical. If you’re going to enjoy a motorcycle, you should be able to fully maintain it to ensure your own safety. And the Grom is the ideal platform for that. One more comment on the valve lash, you’re given the target, along with an acceptable range. So for the intake valve, it’s 4 thousandths plus or minus one thousandth. So 0.003” to 0.005” is the specified range. Same for the exhaust 0.007” target, with 0.006” to 0.008”. Cheers

I’ve been watching a lot of videos to figure out what to get as a first bike and I’m pretty sure I’ve decided on a Grom. I think it’ll be the perfect bike to learn on. I was planning on getting one new just because I’m not very mechanically inclined but with videos like this it has me thinking of checking the used market first. I’ll have to watch a lot more videos to see if I think I can do the work myself but I appreciate videos like these that give me a little confidence that I can do it myself. Even if I buy new these things will still need to be done at some point so I’ll need to learn at some point
@CTGromer
@CTGromer 3 года назад
I think you're right on the money with a grom being a great learner! Even if you don't buy used, maintenance will always need to be performed so familiarizing yourself with the bike is a good move, it will save you money too!

MrOlionabike I’m excited for you too! I should’ve made a video showing the actual cleaning of the oil spinner However, there’s a lot of good videos already out there, just give it a search.

Good vid. I got my Grom new and had to do most of the stuff you mentioned in the first 1-2k miles (break in period). Also, worth mentioning, is how bad stock tires are.Used stock tires are probably even worse. I junked the "Vee" rubber for the Michelin City Grip tires. A very noticeable difference in handling and wet riding performance. To save some money I took the wheels off the bike myself and brought them to an indie tire dealer to do the hard part (mounting and balancing).

We are both newbies and it would be nice for someone to explain all the different parts of the bikes. Keep up the great work.

3:34 and 4:18, I like to slip a piece of cardboard between the swingarm and the wheel during chain service so that the overspray of the chain cleaner and chain lube don't end up on the tire 👍

That's a good move! Saves the extra time cleaning up the rim and swingarm after, thanks for the tip!

That’s a great engine, I’ve heard tons of great stories about it and Honda has used the same basic design since the 60’s or 70’s. FYI a valve adjuster screwdriver costs nothing and can be a big help.
@CTGromer
@CTGromer 4 года назад
I'll look into one of those screw drivers you're talking about. And yes, Honda HAS been using this same engine since the late 60's! It's in all the trail 90s and 110s, bomb proof tried and true design.
@PMitchell106
@PMitchell106 4 года назад
Yep, Honda sold a basic horizontal pushrod OHV motor in 1958, then in 1965 they moved to a chain-driven overhead camshaft, since then, specifications, ignition, and induction have changed, but design has remained the same.

My Honda Elite 80 (1985) crapped out last summer; I cracked off both exhaust bolts, couldn't fix it myself and I've been looking at Groms since. 80cc tops out at 35mph, so I'm looking for more top end for in-city commuting. I'm guessing a 125cc is topping at 50-55, so it's perfect in-city.....but a no-go for freeway. No problemo; that's what my K75C Beemer is for.

Liking the positivity man. Thinking about getting a Grom myself. I’m a little over 200lbs, do you think it would be underpowered on 55mph roads?
@CTGromer

Hey I appreciate the compliment, thanks for watching and commenting! I think it would be just fine-- You'd be able to get to 55mph no problem. a 14T front sprocket would help, and so would intake, exhaust and ECU re-flash.

@CTGromer
@CTGromer 4 года назад
Depends on the year and area, but only a couple hundred miles, great condition and stock maybe $2,500 or so is a good deal, for more miles or worse condition nothing over $2k. Just my opinion :)

I've been thinking about getting a Grom, to get me to, and from work, that way I'm not using my car for all the tiny trips. It would be my first motorcycle if I decided to go for it. all the backroads to work are thirty mph roads, so I'm definitely thinking about it.

you don't have to worry about the battery or the wiring harness getting wet they are made for that some people ride in the rain. all harnesses should have water proof connectors with lil rubber inserts and the battery would need to have a puddle of water on top of it to connect the terminals together but it still wouldn't do much other than drain the batter because its DC power. the only place you don't want water is in the exhaust or the carburetor everything else should be fine unless damaged or altered and worst that would happen is maybe a short and would be fine once it dried out.

Hi There. I don't own a Grom but I really love it. Have tried couple of bikes 2 cylinders 4 cylinders 300 400 and realised I love the 125 most. ;) What is the biggest difference between the new and old model? which one is easier and happier to modify? Just discovered your channel and love it! Hope to see more videos coming up.
@CTGromer
@CTGromer 4 года назад
Thanks for commenting! The biggest differences between the SF models (2017- ) and OG Models (2014-2015) is changes in the aesthetics. essentially the engine is the same. When you're modding, make sure you get the specific model for your year of grom. Again, this matters more for things like fender elminator kits, exhausts, rearsets, etc. Not as important for the engine mods because the engine is the same through all model years.

@CTGromer 4 года назад
Hey, I really appreciate the compliment, saving money is the name of the game! Especially on these groms, the procedures are so simple, most can so them! Now thats a great question, and one I may just decide to do a video on! Jon's Moto Garage (another channel I like) does a great video on this topic. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yzSJbyziAUM.html his videos are a little different than mine, but I thought I'd throw it in. $0.02 on the subject would be: Find out as much as you can about previous maintenance, look for evidence of abuse or hard crashes on the bike (check bar ends, levers, foot pegs, shifter, foot brake, fenders, swing arm, exhaust etc for damage), check integrity of finishes on the bike- is it nice and shiny, hows the exposed rubber and apolstery look? Hopefully the bike never sat for an extended period of time outside...(the rubber will tell you that). Miles vs its model year- too little there's high probability is sat for a long time which means lots of potential engine problems (not that common in groms, as they're still a relatively new bike) High miles on groms don't scare me as much as a new top end is $120. Last but not least, get a feel for the seller, is he or she clean cut, how does their home and other vehicles look? This will give you an indication of how they treated the bike they're selling. Lol there you have it! I'm going to do a video on this soon, Ive decided! Thanks for the idea!
@henriwolbrink
@henriwolbrink 4 года назад
@@CTGromer Great reply. I always prefer down to earth videos. Sadly most just want to show off their latest buy. And mostly just justify their investment. That is if they have paid for it at all, and are just influencers. Another idea would be to make a video on a package to avoid the most common damages due to a parking fall (or kick). I just bought a Grom as an intermediate form of transport while changing jobs. And keep it later for quick city shopping and take it with me in a an or truck. Again, nice and clear info. Covering a complete part of the subject. I ordered a rear rack and a soft case converting into a backpack. Gives some support for my 7 year old son and store helmet or shopping. My other bike will stay a classic. A 2010 model Buell XB12Scg, factory shut end of 2019. And it will surely keep it's value in the upcoming electrical hype. So do a video of steering end caps, tank pads, shaft end protectors etc. So maybe this could become a stage two of essential mods. I will for sure look into it. But will keep colours etc very stealth looking.
