I cross shopped between the 200 duke and the new five speed grom. I haven't gotten to ride the new grom yet, but I did try out the duke. To me, it is a weird mix of too slow and too fast for what I wanted. Too fast to go full throttle everywhere, and I didn't find it as fun as I was expecting. Plus I was quoted $5000 for a $3999 bike that had been sitting on the lot for a year. The dealer shopping experience sucks, probably just going to wait until more examples pop up on the used market.

Email the picture to yourself, download it on a PC, then you can embed it here.
