Honda Msx125 Grom
The Honda Msx125 Grom has a top speed of 105 km/h, produces 9.7 hp and weighs 102 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.5/10.
Der Honda MSX125, der in Nordamerika und Australien als Grom vermarktet wurde, wurde 2013 als lustiges, urbanes Mini-Motorrad vorgestellt, das auf einem 125-cm3-Motor mit Kraftstoffeinspritzung basiert. Aufgrund seiner Erschwinglichkeit, Anpassungsfähigkeit und seines verspielten Charakters gewann es schnell eine große Fangemeinde und wurde zu einem der weltweit meistverkauften Motorräder von Honda mit kleinem Hubraum. Im Jahr 2021 kam es zu einer umfassenden Neugestaltung, bei der ein 5-Gang-Getriebe (statt 4-Gang), ein aktualisiertes Design und eine verbesserte Federung eingeführt wurden, wodurch der Status als Kultklassiker im Mini-Moto-Segment gefestigt wurde.

Was Käufer wissen sollten
Bulletproof Honda Reliability
The Grom's 125cc fuel-injected engine is known for exceptional longevity, often surpassing 30,000+ miles with basic maintenance. Oil changes every 3,000 miles are the primary key to keeping it running strong.
Strong Resale Value
Groms hold their value remarkably well due to high demand and a massive aftermarket mod community. A well-maintained used Grom typically sells for 80-90% of its original purchase price.
Watch for Cam Chain Rattle
A known issue on higher-mileage Groms is cam chain tensioner wear, which produces a rattling noise on cold starts. Budget for a tensioner inspection around 15,000 miles to avoid more costly engine damage.

"The most fun per dollar of any used motorcycle available today."
$2,500-$4,500 usedThe Grom is genuinely brilliant for what it is — a properly engineered small bike that Honda built with real care rather than banging out a cheap commuter. That 125cc four-stroke pulls cleanly through its four-speed box, and the front disc setup actually inspires confidence rather than scaring you. Used examples between 2014-2021 are everywhere because this thing sold in massive numbers, which means parts are cheap and mechanics know them cold. Buying used, inspect the plastics hard — Grom owners customise obsessively, so you'll often find butchered wiring, aftermarket exhausts that drone annoyingly, or suspension that's been 'upgraded' badly. Check the rear tyre wear pattern too, since these get wheelied constantly by young owners who think they're Valentino Rossi. Early 2014-2015 examples had minor carb hesitation issues worth knowing about. Honestly though, the Grom earns its cult status. It's stupidly fun, genuinely reliable, and holds value better than almost anything at this price point. Just go in with eyes open about its history.
