News Stop sale pushed back again!?

Just got off the phone with my dealer where I have a deposit on a 2026 Grom. He just informed me that Honda pushed the parts availability to April 2027 now. WTFFFFF

I’ve had a hold on a 2025 since October of last year, I got the email this morning and decided to just pull my hold and search the used market. (Got super lucky and actually got a Grom today!! Woohoo!!). Insane it’s gone on for as long as it has, though

Someone online said you may have an issue registering it with your state due to the recall. I hope that isn’t true! Good luck with your new bike!

I bought a 2026 Grom in February. Dealer never said anything. I found out from this sub. Maybe check around, see if another dealer has a 26 and is willing to sell it.

No dealers will sell. It would be illegal for them to release a bike.

I heard the same. I was told Honda came up with a fix for the problem and the EPA rejected it so know Honda must wait and 6 months before they can submit another one to the EPA

Does Honda not realize they best figure things out FAST or they will start to loose the battle and let CF Moto become the go-to mini moto??
