There can’t be many motorcyclists who aren’t at least aware of the little 125cc Grom. Launched 10 years ago, the air-cooled economical single-cylinder bike has become a popular choice for young riders, commuters, or riders looking for something small and fun to muck around on. And now the 2025 Honda MSX125 Grom finally gets some official accessories from Honda to make it more versatile and customisable.
After a decade in production, the updates to the Grom itself are fairly small, having already received a styling update, engine change and five-speed gearbox for the 2021 model year. So the top speed of 73mph from the 10hp engine remains unchanged, as does the 750mm (29.7 inch) seat height and 6 litre fuel capacity offering 65.7km per litre if you’re careful.
What you will get with the new model is a sportier look for the detachable body panels, with a sharper fuel tank cover with knee cutouts, restyled side panels, and a sporty new undercowl. And three colour options with Candy Blue, Pearl White and Matte Black Metallic to choose from.
Also new for the Grom in 2025 are a range of genuine Honda accessories, grouped into two bundles. The Comfort Pack includes Knuckle Visors, with the guards diverting air from your hands and forearms, along with a dark tined Meter Visor for your chest and shoulders.
Or you can pick up the Travel pack which includes two 10 litre Saddle Bags with waterproof inner liners, handles and straps, along with a Rear Carrier for more luggage. Each item can also be purchased separately, along with the Rear Seat Bag, which can offer 15 litres of storage, and is expandable to 22 ltires with a rain cover and carrying handle.
Honda has been successfully expanding the range of pocket-sized 125cc mini motorcylces over recent years with the rebirth of the Monkey, and Super Cub C125, along with the Dax125. The 2025 Honda MSX125 Grom is listed at a price of £3,929, but if you afford that, you can find plenty of second hand examples on sites including eBay.
