Spanish custom shop Steady Garage released a multi-episode video series documenting a project that swaps a Honda Grom's small engine for a CBR300 unit. The build uses a dedicated mounting kit from Chimera Engineering, working off the Grom's original frame mounting points, with a custom-fitted Yoshimura RS-5 exhaust originally designed for the CBR600RR.

I judge every new bike by who's going to wrench on it, and the idea of stuffing a CBR300 engine into a Grom chassis already gets me going. Using Chimera Engineering's dedicated mount off the stock frame points is exactly the kind of work builders will reference five years from now.

Building a custom mount kit takes real specialized knowledge, right?

For that kind of money, wouldn't buying a bigger bike outright be simpler?

Engine swaps are an old-school hobby, but they're still exciting today

A bit curious whether the frame strength holds up to this

If the CBR250R version made 29hp, the 300 version should top that.

This idea for a Grom is glorious madness, need to see it run

If they actually tour on this thing when it's done, that's hilarious
