    I think a brand new DRZ is around $6500 which is expensive considering its basically just a dirt bike. I personally couldn't justify the price of a Grom but they are really neat bikes. I am hoping Honda will put the Grom Scrambler concepts they made into production.

      I rode an identical DRZ to the one handlyundley has.  They are a blast.  Hope to pick up a motard soon, parting the R1 now.  I'd also like a grom, but I don't think I could do it as my only bike.

        Now is the time to buy one. I over payed for mine because I was looking in May.

          Groms are quite fun. A friend of mine has one and has let me drive it. I don't know if I would want it as my only bike (not great for longer trips), but I wouldn't mind having one. My current bike is a BMW G650 XCountry that I picked up earlier this year. So far it is exactly what I was hoping it would be. Plenty of power and still light and nimble.

            I've owned a drz and now own a grom. They are both their own type of fun, but apples and oranges for comparison

              Break it in hard and change the oil often lol. I opted for the 6 year warranty which covers everything besides tires and wear parts. Which is nice considering how it gets ridden

                Good to know because I've been breaking mine in really hard. I had almost no choice but to go WOT for the first 30 miles because of where I bought it.

                Did you get the warranty through the dealership you bought yours, or Honda? It does sound like good reassurance.

                  It would be almost impossible to not break these in hard. WOT is a necessity to move the damn thing. The 6 year extended warranty was through the dealership. Think it added like $2 a month to my payment lol

                    Late 80s Vitus 979.  294 miles so far this month.  Pretty good mpg.

                      I just picked this up a few weeks ago but I've only done about 50 miles on it.

                        Not very hip of you to have more than one gear. Not very hip at all.

                              One that I probably should have kept.

                                That's a good looking cafe. But idk what it is about them. Part of me likes them and the other part of me tells me I'm dumb for liking them. They look cool but are not at all enjoyable to ride lol

                                      Nah, low and centered body position just results in it feeling like a bump.

                                          I cranked out 100 miles so far this weekend.  Only calories burned.
