    A friend of mine has a Honda Grom and I was actually shocked at how slow it was when I got to ride it. I hadn't previously processed the slowness when he was accelerating at full throttle in front of me and I was barely opening the throttle.
    the throttle is more of an on off type of deal.

    the tune with the intake and exhaust added 3 hp and on a 9hp bike that's quite a gain

    but slow nonetheless. Literally no sensation of acceleration

    but somehow wildly fun.... for me at least

    That is a smell the roses kinda bike, so to speak. all you can do is cruise

      We don't have fun roads here so I don't see the point of it in our context but he has 5 or 6 bikes I guess a little of everything.
