A Heads up! Especially as you drive in all weathers! Look at the frame in front of the back wheel, between the swing arm pivots. You will see a horizontal oval cut in the steel with a tiny hole in the middle. That hole goes straight into the swing arm bearing cavity, so water etc gets in and corrodes the hell out of the shaft, so take the swing arm apart and grease, then block that hole! The Grom probably has this, but it is covered by a hugger, and in the Monkey, Honda have missed this.

I drove mine 225 miles the other day! When nearing the end of the drive, some on wet roads, I left the city lights onto dark roads and thought "these lights are crap' They wern't, they had about 2mm of shit on the lens!! That mudguard has to go! Looking for suitable lower replacement

@rogercrier
@rogercrier 5 лет назад
Don’t get me wrong, I love it. It is just the front mudguard is so useless that in the wet it can cover the headlamp with so much crap that it struggles to get the light out!! Just like a road going enduro bike. A dangling flap on the front end of the front mudguard would help as the crap won’t get launched forwards and upwards, but forwards and horizontal

It’s not positioned as a “best value for money” product. It’s got to be more expensive than the MSX/grom so they can offer it as something more exclusive. It’s also big on the nostalgic factor and so far the sales numbers are good so the market is receiving it well

People who drive aggressively like you are what gives these little bikes a bad name and reputation. Victoria has already taken action to remove them from the public spaces because of this. Those drivers you violated have every right to feel violated and probably want to kick your butt. It violates personal space, creates unsafe conditions, and is just plain anti social in my opinion. GROW UP and stop making it look bad for everyone else who drives one of these! This has been edited to avoid being overly abrasive to the person/s guilty of acting this way.
