  • I took the 2022 Honda Monkey out for a spin to test if it even feels like a motorcycle. Even tho' the small size and volume, the Monkey really took me by surprise!

    How dare you call Honda Monkey a motorcycle ? It is much more than that. It is the legend.

    Just rolled over 2K miles on mine , put some handle bar risers on it and a iridium spark plug , the risers tightened the throttle cable a little and shockingly made it peppier than ever. Btw 110 mpg verified by many fill ups .

    You are correct with your comment about speed limits. Might as well stay at the limit and keep your licence. Nice video.👍

    If the rear had ABS as well, you wouldn't have been able to do your skid entrance!? 🤷‍♂️

    • @alexzingo6952
      @alexzingo6952 Před rokem

      No, front ABS only, which is better, because you can lock rear to put bike down, if needed to avoid a worse collision. Hopefully that never happens for you.

    Hello fellow danish man.
    I drive the msx125 with 4 gears here in Denmark.
    I enjoy it so much that i want a longer distance trip on it.
    Just don't go on the freeways, or wait. Mine can :)

      Hvor stærk kører sådan en 4 gears MSX efter gps, på en vej ligeud uden med, og modvind? Jeg spørger fordi jeg har haft en Skyteam Dax EU45 Red Devil, og skiftet ud med Suzuki Savage, Honda CBR 600 F3, og nu Suzuki GS500F, men jeg savner en Dax, MSX, Monkey ting som gal! Men det skal være en 125 ccm, som jeg bare vil bruge i byen når jeg ikke kører på min GS500… men nogle siger de ikke kører hurtigere end ca 85, og det er bare for lidt….

    Red and silver flake is sharp too! Hahaha I love mine so much it's making it hard to find a bigger bike that I feel as comfortable on, just to hold highway speeds. I might go to the 13 sprocket ;)

    I love my red Monkey since February ´22, too. It's a real motorcycle! I learned on a BMW R 75/5, used Kawasaki 900, but loved my Dax and my HONDA SL 125 as a Teenie. I am riding not so far away from the danish border and Tønder. Where are you from in Denmark?

      @@mrforeman7443 Nope .. I didn't get one.. I have a 09 Yam Zuma 50c with 10k miles (but getting old).. with my Zuma theres no shifting.. I like the Monkey with its big comfy seat.. But I didn't like the shifting.. What Honda needs to do is make a Honda Monkey scooter with the same big comfy seat and add a floor to put your feet like a scooter.... If Honda would make this in a 125cc and 50cc - I would buy one.. The Ruckus is ok.. but no storage..and the seat is probably too low for me.. I think a same sized Monkey, but make it a scooter - like I mentioned would be much better..
