Anyone think it would be possible to mount the 250r motor to the grom?

No, I think a big bore kit would be better.

Anything is possible with time and $$$.

But in all seriousness, you'd have a hell of a time getting it in there. I envision slicing off the main tube and custom bending a new dual tube setup.

I think it would be easier to put Grom wheels on a CBR

Now that lay down Husaberg 450 motor ...................................

or a 2 stroke, seen a few monkey bikes with tzr125 engines in doing a ton!

why would you? why not just get the 250 and be done with it if you want a bigger bike?

It was just a question. I was just thinking with the lack of mods and the low top end. How long will it be before someone tries something like this? People place larger engines in smaller vehicles often I dont see this bike being any different.

It would be a very difficult swap, as the grom's 125 has a horizontal cylinder, and the cbr250 has a vertical cylinder. The cbr engine is tall vertically, while being short horizontally, while the grom's is long horizontally but short vertically. Think rectangle with the short side down as the cbr motor, rectangle with long side down for the grom.

I already started a thread under the build section. I have been avoiding it as I have a few issues to sort out! Heh heh.....Plenty to think about. Hopefully get some real progress soon as I have a date with a fabricator in two weeks! YEA!
