Honda Is Giving The Most Fun Bike In The World Its Third Facelift

The Honda Grom is maybe the most fun anyone can have on two wheels. Team Red has managed to make Americans care about small-bore motorcycles again, and after three successful generations, the Grom is getting another reskin for 2025. The pint-sized powersports icon is back for another go-around of ripping up your city at sub-limit speeds. It has proven extremely popular because of its customization and approachable riding, and doesn’t really need much updating after the third-generation revamp was such a massive step forward. The Grom is dead, long live the Grom.

The third-gen Grom launched in 2021 with a new 5-speed transmission, an upgraded 9.8-horsepower 125cc engine, and a spin-on oil filter. It was a big upgrade over the 2nd gen model, and all of that carries over to the 4th gen. It appears the 2025 model is largely getting new bodywork and a new seat, but everything else will stay the same.

Honda says the facelift comes with a whole raft of customization accessories, including “storage and style upgrades.” The 2025 accessories haven’t yet been released to the world, but I look forward to some fun Grom bits.

The last time I tested a Grom, I said “If everyone rode Groms, the world would be a happier place. It just might be the key to world peace,” and I stand by that. Go buy a Grom, you’ll be a better person.

The new model starts at $3,599 and can be bought in Candy Blue, Pearl White, or Cherry Red. You can get a Grom SP for $100 more, which is only available in Matte Black Metallic and swaps the gold forks for black ones. If you want front wheel ABS, it’ll cost you $3,799, and only comes in Pearl White. They should be delivering to your local Honda Powersports dealer this month.
