Love my Monkey! Bulletproof and a joy to ride. This thing will out-live me. I'll be handing it down to my kids when I'm gone.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to commet 😁 Please subscribe and hit the bell button 🛎👍
I'm Consistently dreaming to have one. Thank u for the honest review 😊
Got my no ABS in Dec 2018. Still on the original battery. One of the most fun bikes I’ve had.
Great review my man. Really enjoyed watching that. Thanks
Great to see such an honest review and all your adventures on the Monkey 🐒
What a great episode it's been great seeing all your adventures together.
Cheers buddy it's been a great bike and many more adventures to come.
Great job you did a great review on the Honda monkey thank you as guys like you that really helps guys like me make my decision you made it you did a great job
That rear trunk is amazing 🤩
Great to see the mirror extenders in action, glad they have helped the vision and to better see sidekick being left in your dust. Looking forwards to catching up in Peak District Phil & Wendy
Thanks 😁 the mirror extenders makes such a difference 👍 Roll on the Peak Adventure 🕺😁
Thanks for watching for more videos check this out. th-cam.com/users/HelmetHead
Such a cool little bike. Here’s to another year full of adventures 🥂🍻
Thanks 😁
I Love 'Things'..that me Me Smile! ....Great Tips on the chain , mirror extensions..& battery 'Smart Charger'!...Honda Reliability!...my '76 Honda GL1000 'Standard' needs a 'Baby Boy'!...lol.. Cheers from Canada!
Purchasing this as my first bike, using it as a commuter/pleasure bike. Can't wait to get it !!
We got a great deal on 2 from a guy here in the states that got them for he and his wife but she didn't want them so now I have 2 with 50 miles on them. Plant are to set up a rack on the motor home and use them at swap meets and at big campgrounds instead of old timer mopeds or golf carts. In many campgrounds you cannot drive carts because of not being able to register them. Just picked them up 2 weeks ago so should be fun.
My dad was lucky enough to find a Monkey that will be delivered at the end of the month. It's going to be fantastic. I have a pretty heavily modified Honda Grom (mx125). I can't wait to go cruising with my dad on our mini bikes!!!! These mini bikes are rather hard to get in the states because of there popularity.
That's brilliant 😁 I hope you have some amazing adventures together 👍
Ok, you talked me into it...I want one to customize...Love the addition of the tour pack...needs some bags too...
Awesome enjoy the smiles per miles 😀
Really makes me want one now. What a great channel keep them coming dude.
Thank buddy 😁👍
Congrats on 1 year ownership of the beast buddy. Couldn't help but laugh at the wobbly baffle though 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣😂 Added sound affect 🤣😂
Brilliant video! Thank you
I bought one in 2021 and love it. But I can't believe you have to remove two bolts to take off the seat rather than a flip lever and there is no kick start. Keep riding folks.
Great review - Thanks
Hi, thank you for your review of the Honda monkey. Im looking to move from cycling to work to a motorcycle. I haven't ridden a motorcycle since l was 15, lm 60 now and a bit unsure about the idea at the moment. Im a very small female hence the choice of the monkey (or a grom)
Finding one is the biggest challenge currently.
5000 on stock chain have my backup for sure no issues but the light
Check this out to see a great adventure on this great little bike 🏍 th-cam.com/video/KMqfZzRJEIU/w-d-xo.html
Please don't forget to subscribe before you go. 😁👍
I had to subscribe to this channel because I to am a big, muscular and dead sexy man and not chubby. Ky USA here and my black 2022 Monkey will be here in late sept, i cannot wait to get that first ride in on it.
Welcome to the crazy channel 🤪👍 Good choice picking the Monkey you will be smiling all day 😁
@@HelmetHead I already am and its not even here yet lol I do have about 20 mini bikes I mod and race, but wanted a street legal bike to keep on my bus when I travel. My poor wife, all she hears about is monkey talk lol
I remember your first ride video 😀
You need to oil your air filter man, plus after watching your review I'm gonna buy 2 of these bike now. Thanks for review, good job buddy.
Thanks for your video, what is the unit you use on the back of it for storage?
Good review. Would a better battery work to be charged up fully?
Getting rid of that low hanging header pipe is excellent.
Love my 2022 in Canada!
Great videos, just bought a monkey bike myself. CBT in a couple days then I’ll be monkeying around 😁
Enjoy she is an amazing fun bike. 👍
Love the channel mate! Actually think you're near my old neck of the woods. Bourne boy here. Have you tried the new Monkey yet? An old Vs. new video would be great to see!
Cheers mate glad you're enjoying the channel. I'm aiming to test the new 2022 monkey vs the my old version. But unfortunately I'm booked up with filming dates for the next few months. So I'm hoping to get my hands on some press bikes towards the end of the year.
Which top box is that? Curious to find out how big a box you can get on the back without looking like a Deliveroo rider.
I'm thinking about getting one, but security (theft) is my concern, especially riding in London. Any tips from owners?
Do you have a link for the "mirror extenders"?
The battery problem is the same with the supercub.
your vids are great! thx so much-- :D
Thank you 😁👍
I've uprated the rear suspension on mine as I weigh more than 100kg max payload! Would I get any benefit from altering the gearing?
All the best, Nick
Does it bottom out a lot when you riding.Im a bit larger would it accommodate a 300 lb Rider.
Love the Monkey. Had one about a week now and I think I will keep this bike forever. Question, where did you find that Cruz control? Great video!
Hello buddy the Cruz Control I use is all in this Video with links in the description 😉 th-cam.com/video/k2pnDm5ouuk/w-d-xo.html
Hello can I get more information on the storage box??
Im getting one of these. Its going to look cool af next to my fatboy.
Exactly. Just got one. Got big bikes too. This thing is complexity different. Two wheels rock
Hahahahaha. I'm going to trade in an old rebel and put the monkey next to my Ducati desert sled.
Mine is waiting at the dealership! Thank you for your great videos! What helmet you’re wearing I’d buy the same if you like it
I was wearing the Caberg duke 2 when I made made this vid. It’s a great Helmet for the price here is a link amzn.to/3NxkrRs
Monkey Magic! Never use alarm -... I figure if someone wants it, they'll chuck in the back of a car. Generally use messenger bag but managed to get a yellow box for occasional use. Mirror extenders and rear shocks are a must to handle my muscular physique 😄
I do like the idea of a yellow box. I bet it looks really cool. 👍
@@HelmetHead posted on you FB page ( which I just discovered)
what is an smart charger?
when my wife asked me to pick up some milk I could not have a better friend :D or just the fact I live next to the sea 20 mins on the Monkey and Hvaler island in summertime is the place to be :)
Love the Monkey bike.
thats the coolest moped i know
You’ve put me off buying one with the facts about the battery going flat if you leave it for two weeks (!). I don’t a chance to get out regularly, and I already have a bigger bike, so thanks for saving me a few grand.
Trickle charger is no trick I got a lithium booster for my car it would work because the lithium Jumper would do it easy. I am going to chain mine down.hardened chain and lock!
it's between this and the trail 125, I'm torn....
Awesome
i want to buy one because of it's rarity. we never know one day honda might pull it out of the market and as of now they bringing some old favourites but who knows until when they gonna sell it.
Hey, Tenshi, it's a retro bike, we like it that way: lose the fake carbon-fiber touches.
just bought a 2022 monkey.....extras inc £500 exhaust + original under 1000 mls.£3000 bargain.grom owner
Just picked up my 22 Monkeybike last week thanks to your channel! :)
What rack and top box are you using?
Thanks

Thanks buddy 😁👍
Thanks!
Thank you so much for the Super Thanks 😊 👍 It's my first one 🕺
@@HelmetHead Your reviews & tips are so fun to watch! I have Black Pearl 2022 Monkey on reserve! It isn't released yet in the US. So hoping it comes next week!
@@momarunchained3032 Thank you it's always so nice to receive a great positive comment. I so like the black Monkey it looks so cool. Your gonna have so much fun it really is a smile every mile bike 🏍 😁👍
any links to the DID chain you bought please?
Hello here is the link via ebay. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DID-BRAND-NEW-RACING-GOLD-MOTORCYCLE-DRIVE-CHAIN-420-420D-98L-98-L-LINKS-/223611628007?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0
Hi, how tall are you? Did own a 2nd generation Grom but never got on with the stepped saddle.
Hi, I'm 5'8
Are you going to try the big bore kit on the Monkey eventually ?
Yes something I might do in the future 😉 I'd like to see if we can get the monkey to do 100mph 💨
If I live 25 miles from work could this be a daily commuter? Equalling 50 miles daily.. Providing the road speed/rules are appropriate
Yes 100% 👍
Great review Alan (BTW that mole on your right cheek has grown and is now hairy, you really, really, need to see a Doctor about that mate 🤣🤣🤣)
Thanks buddy 😁 The doctor said it's a I've got fluffy-muff-itus very contagious 😬🤣
Love one of theses for my first bike (48lol) can you ride one on cbt?
Yes you can 👍
@@HelmetHead brill hopefully get used to using gears quick 👍
did you get the new 2022 5-speed monkey yet?
Not yet but may get a press bike to compare them both 😉👍
Cant believe your worried more about a quality chain than a quality air filter !!
You might interested on how far my air filter gets - Around The WORLD!

Shorten the chain!?!?!?
The biggest problem I can see with Honda is that they have the Monkey, the Grom, and now in the USA, the Navi. It's a case of too many good bikes to choose from. Please don't say, get them all, I'm not that rich.
😁
EDIT: Monkey came out as money, I fixed that, but stupid auto-correct.
We can't get the Navi in the UK as it's not fuel injected, which is infuriating as it's cheap as chips!
@@imarockstarme That's too bad, while I haven't seen the Navi in the US yet, it sure looks interesting. I wonder if Honda UK will be able to introduce it there as a Fuel Injected version?
5400CAD for an air-cooled 125? Cute, but she's a biter.
I bought a 125 Wave in MY for 1,200USD.
15:20 😆 🤣 😂
Are you in the United States if so the suggested retail price of $4200.00 for the Honda 125 Monkey is ridiculously way over priced by Honda! I won't buy one!
Don’t worry I’m getting every dollar out of it - Around The WORLD!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣sounds like a Moto gp bike? Maybe a 1910 Moto gp.
🐒🏅🏍️💨
🏍️🐒🍻😉👍
What is up with your breathing? Sounds like you gasping for air between sentences. Great review tho
He's probably getting excited riding his little monkey
Who cares, we’re not here to identify his health problems.
Honda build?? Try Indian build hence shitty wheel bearing.....
