Click here for an VINData Motorcycle History Report on this 2024 Honda Grom SP.
When Honda first introduced the Grom 125 (MSX125 for those of you outside of the U.S.) back in 2014, the little bike made quite the splash. Some eagerly welcomed it, excited that the historically-practical moto manufacturer was finally ready to have some fun. Others scratched their heads, bewildered as to why Honda would cater to such a seemingly ‘peculiar’ niche.
Even in spite of its initial controversy, the Grom has firmly established itself within the motorcycle community. Between the compact size, the high-revving 125cc engine, and the flickable geometry, it’s a bike that has commanded quite the cult following.
Road & Track put it perfectly in their initial review: “The Grom is tiny, gutless, slow, and perfect. It’s the kind of motorcycle that probably made you enjoy riding in the first place… Invariably, it’ll make you enjoy riding again.” As with other small Hondas (like the Ruckus), one of the hallmarks of the Grom lies in its customization potential. So, while the platform is pretty humble out of the box, there’s a thriving aftermarket chock full of performance parts.
2021 saw an update to the model. The SP designation was strictly a paint and graphics package but little bike did get a fifth gear, lighter wheels, updated LCD screen, larger fuel tank, and top speed was increased 5 m.p.h. to 59 m.p.h.
This example is VIN: MLHJC9218R5204757.
Iconic bought this to use at our Rhode Island location as part of Iconic East for our members to use during events or when renting the facility. We sent our fleet of Groms to our headquarters in Santa Monica for the winter and now that we’re changing up what Iconic East will be we decided to sell one of the Groms to clear up some space so it’s being sold with no reserve!
