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.

La Honda MSX125, comercializada como Grom en Norteamérica y Australia, se presentó en 2013 como una divertida minimoto urbana construida con un motor de 125 cc con inyección de combustible. Rápidamente ganó un gran número de seguidores gracias a su asequibilidad, capacidad de personalización y carácter lúdico, convirtiéndose en una de las bicicletas de pequeña cilindrada más vendidas de Honda en todo el mundo. En 2021 se llevó a cabo un rediseño importante, con la introducción de una caja de cambios de 5 velocidades (antes de 4), un estilo actualizado y una suspensión mejorada, lo que consolidó su estatus como un clásico de culto en el segmento de las minimotos.

Lo que los compradores deben saber

🔧

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.

Reseña de un comprador usado

8.5/10
Lo mejor para
Urban commuters and experienced riders wanting cheap fun

"The most fun per dollar of any used motorcycle available today."

$2,500-$4,500 used

The 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.
