Test rode the "real" Scrambler last year. Didn't like the seating position at all. It must be made for very short people. This one is an awful copy of course, is it even leagal to sell in civilised countries?

I had a 71 Ducati 450RT scrambler back in the day.  It was fun but wouldn't keep up with my buddy's B50 BSA.

Looks more like a Grom then a Ducati.

Ah, a Honda with a different name, I thought is was a slang word for a turd.  ;)

There's quite a scene out there for people who like to make Groms look like something they're not. Google "custom grom" and check the Panigales, streetfighters, Cafe racers, HRC's and all the rest. These people are very creative and do nice work. And they're having a laugh. So that's nice.
Grom: short for Grommet. An adolescent surfer. Cheeky and a bit obnoxious but usually pretty capable and lots of fun.

They have quickly become the pit bike of choice at GNC races.
