Honda’s favorite little weapon, the hugely successful Grom, gets a facelift for 2017 in the wake of a fresh challenge from archrival Kawasaki on their new Z125 Pro.

The Grom gets a sharper look with new side shrouds, LED headlight, flip-key, new handlebars, under-slung exhaust and a different tail section with a taller passenger seat.

Mechanically, the Grom is unchanged with a 125cc single-cylinder four-stroke motor, disc brakes and a 31mm fork.

The 2017 Honda Grom gets a facelift.

The new Grom will go on sale in August and retail for $3199 in Matte Gray Metallic, Pearl Red, Pearl White, or the gnarly Bright Yellow.
