While a girder fork can certainly help, you don’t always need one if you want your bike to have that bulldog stance. As an excellent example, we have Bangkok-based K-Speed Customs’ latest creation, the Super Grom. Based on the recently updated Honda Grom, it’s a rugged-looking little adventure machine. Don’t let its diminutive size fool you. It may be little, but it sure looks like it’s ready to take a bite out of some off-road trekking.Â
The Super Grom isn’t just a custom Honda Grom build. Instead, it’s a bolt-on kit that you can buy from K-Speed right now, in your choice of three colorways: Red/Black, Matte Black/Glossy Black, or Blue/Black. All three pack a lot of value for money, too. Â
As currently listed in the K-Speed store on February 18, 2021, the Super Grom kit includes the handlebar, hand grips, hand guards, gauge cover, headlight cover, front fairing, front mudguard, belly pan/engine guard, two-piece tank cover, seat cushion, taillight cover, side panels, taillights with integrated turn signals, slim front turn signals, rear mudguard with license plate bracket, and a full-system exhaust.Â

You can pop this kit into your virtual cart at a cost of just 27,900 Thai baht, which is about $929. It’s unclear whether K-Speed will ship outside Thailand, but it does offer shipping and delivery services within the country. Also, there are currently 13 K-Speed locations within the kingdom to choose from, so perhaps you could check one out in person if you’re already there, and they have it in stock. Â
Please note that you’ll need to buy a set of knobby tires separately, as they do not come with the K-Speed Super Grom kit. Still, the fact that both the bodywork and exhaust are included for that price seems like a pretty solid deal. Hopefully, that saddle is as comfy and sturdy as it looks. There’s only one way to find out, isn’t there?Â
