How to Ride a Honda Grom | Beginners Guide

If you want to learn how to ride a Honda Grom, this is the video for you! This is a BEGINNERS guide to riding a Grom or other motorcycles that should help people starting out on a first bike.

This is a no shame video where I teach you the very BASICS of a Motorcycle as well as how to ride one. I go over all the parts like the switches, buttons, levers, etc on my Grom and tell you the importance of which and how to use them. Following that I start my riding tutorial where I teach you one of the many ways to learn how to ride a bike. This includes how to shift the motorcycle, how to brake, and how to turn. Many of the tips & tricks I teach you are from my own experiences teaching myself how to ride. The Honda Grom or Kawasaki Z125 are great bikes to start and learn how to ride a motorcycle. Either option would apply to what I teach in the video.

Now for the people that already know how to ride, this video wasn't intended for you but feel free to watch! I can already hear the comments from people telling me they already know how to ride a motorcycle...congratulations. For the people that will ask, I still don't think the Grom is the best first bike, but I do think its the best bike to learn how to ride on. If you found this video helpful, please let me know! And please. for those learning how to ride make sure to wear protective gear at all times!

This is probably the best beginner's guide out there, Grom specific or not.

You never know what people don't know, and you explained it ALL completely. Bookmarked and subbed. I will send this to every potential rider from here on out.

My grom is basically a unicycle with a extra wheel. I think I have 2000 miles on the back and 5 miles on the front wheel. Lol😎👍

I’m 29 and about to buy my very first Grom. It’s my first motorcycle period and I’m super excited. Your video gave a lot of really good info and I’m gonna use and practice everything that was shown. Thanks man✌🏾😌

I watched this video last year when it has 8k views. I had just bought a Grom and had no experience whatsoever riding a motorcycle. I have never rode a dirt bike or a standard vehicle a day in my life. I found this tutorial and started learning to ride it literally because of this video it was the only tutorial I had ever watched on how to ride. At first I had a lot of trouble with starting in first gear and stalling the bike for beginners out there trust me I stalled this A LOT. What I wasn’t doing was throttling slightly before the point of friction then using the clutch to determine how much torque the engine was getting once I figured that out I NEVER stalled the bike again. It’s definitely a learning curve for beginners but once you figure it out it’s soo much fun. I must’ve watched this tutorial 20+ times and still come back to it to see how I’m doing. I know I pissed my neighbors off riding around my culdesac 100x with my aftermarket exhaust but now I ride it everywhere. Thank you so much Anthony for the tutorial I honestly don’t think I ever would have learned how to ride without it!

I’m 15 about to be 16 and I’m thinking about saving for a grom. I’ve never had an experience with a motorcycle and this video taught me a lot, great video and thanks!

2024... 6yrs later and this is the best detailed explanation I've watched completely through. Great job and thank you.

[Ggggggggggggg]

I’ve gotten a grom (as my first bike) recently and I’ve been repeatedly watching this vid. It’s a great vid, explained well, simple to the point, not to much excess, and has a good exhaust/good audio so you can hear what your doing pretty well. Thx again! I’ve watched a few others but this one is the best

37 years old and learning to ride for the first time. This video is excellent. Subscribing. Thank you!

[tacidaho]

Separating the left and right sides for shifting and braking is great simplifying. That’s what I always do when teaching people to ride!

[willconyers]

This is like thee perfect beginners video. Thank you for sharing.

[verifiedtn]

getting my first bike, which of course is the Grom, and I couldn't be more excited and nervous at the same time. this video is literally a blessing, it simplified so much for me, and lemme tell ya, I thought bikes would be beyond complicated and I'd never learn to ride. However, your video has given me hope and I cant wait to start my life of riding!

[joshpaz]

Never rode a motorcycle in my life. Don't have a license yet. But planning on getting a grom in the next month. Thanks bro 🙏

[dallasomankeegankrach]

I thought of making a vid like this but this is phenomenal you have patience

[keishahamby]

This video is wonderful! I have ridden an automatic scooter and semi-automatic Spyder, but never anything with a clutch. I purchased a Grom today and practiced riding. I was struggling with the clutch during take off quite a bit. I appreciate your advice about letting it begin to crawl and then accelerating. I can’t wait to practice again tomorrow!

[ortizeariel]

I just bought a cb500f and i have only ever been on a dirt bike so I have been nervous as hell to learn how to ride my bike but this has been probably the best video out there in terms of a beginner’s guide. You are very well spoken. Thank you so much.

[BamaHoopsBoi]

Seriously, one of the best videos I’ve ever watched. Period. Really been considering buying a Grom to drive back and forth to work. It would be my first and only bike. This video has made me a believer, thank you!

[tonyschol]

I’ve been flirting with getting a Grom but have never been on a motorcycle. This beginnings guide was amazing. Thank you I will be definitely starting the search for a Grom to start learning come spring.

[names-j]

I recently got a Grom a few months ago and it was fun to rewatch the steps I took to ride, as it is my first bike. This tutorial will be great for people learning the Grom. I didn’t have it these easy and simplified, definitely going to let my brother learn based on this video because he’s a little intimidated because he’s never ridden but wants to. Maybe a wheelie tutorial next haha? #GromSquad.

Riiiight at the very end you answered my question about down shifting and stopping. Hold the clutch, release gas, apply breaks, stop in a high gear then just tap down tap down tap down into 1 or N while stopped then start moving again. I've never been on a bike before but I want to own a grom one day so I'm studying it and other bikes for that matter. I need to learn basics like this. Thank you so much for this in depth video.

[ilikethecold]

Just had my first day on my grom (and bike in general). This video was on point! I couldn't even get out of the damn driveway, watched this video, and got right back on and figured it out. Thanks for the how to my dude!
