I sat on both of them back to back yesterday and thought the same thing.

Both bikes are sweet.

The Grom is so light you can pick the front wheel up while just sitting on it.

The FZ09 also has that super light feeling (although no where near as light).

My friend is probably getting both of these bikes next year.

Grom for his wife (she's very short, so she's not comfortable on even a bike like the 250/300).

FZ09 for him to replace his 650r.

Didn't see it until this thread, but those two bikes will go well together (scaling aside).
