2022 Honda Navi: The $1,807 Mini-Moto you Didn't Know you Needed
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 лис 2021
- What makes the new 2022 Honda Navi so much fun? How about this: First, it’s easy to ride, thanks to its one-speed, no-shift automatic CVT transmission. That helps make it easy to learn on too, even if you’ve never ridden a motorcycle before. Because it’s small, it’s easy to park. Some spectacular fuel efficiency makes it easy on your wallet when it comes time to fill the tank. A reliable Honda engine makes maintenance easy too-because it hardly needs any. And best of all, with its super-low price, the new Honda Navi is easy to own. So check out the mini machine that maximizes your fun-the new Honda Navi. Don’t just ride-Navi-gate your world.

It cannot be sold in India anymore because India has adopted Euro 6 level emmision standards. This bike is carburated so it cannot be sold in Europe either. It is being dumped in US market so get one NOW before they are outlawed or run out of stock.
Too bad really. India is still developing, they really shouldn't be trying to follow the emissions standards set by countries who only adopted those laws after getting rich... I'm sure getting 110mpg can't be that dirty, especially considering all the 50 year old Tuk Tuks driving around ... Is having a carburetor really the thing that discontinued this?
@@pauld.b7129 India is facing an air quality catastrophe with New Delhi consistently scoring in the top 3 most polluted cities list. They are closing schools to try to reduce traffic.
@@ShahryarSaigol...yes, but if you look at their culture, how many houses have their own personal generator that run a majority of the time. Plus, they considered themselves as "developing" for a long time and environmental controls were hinderances on their development. But now, the pollution is so bad it can't be ignored and they are forced to take drastic measures; whereas if they took action(s) 20 years (or even 10 years) ago, they wouldn't be suffering from poor air quality. Population density and poverty are also other culprits too....
@@K03sport I was not criticizing India. My point is that the Navi (and Honda CG125) built in Mexico will only be available for a very short time. They have carburated engines which are not legal for sale in new bikes in Europe and most developed countries. That is why the 125 engines in Grom, Ct125 and Super Cub were upgraded to Euro5. standard. So buy as many Navis as can get your hands on now.
Interesting, I should buy all four colors. How much were these sold for in INDIA.
Already threw down a deposit on a Grasshopper Green Navi at my local dealership! Thanks for posting such an informative review on these lil guys.
That’s awesome!! I’m sure you’re going to love it - I had a smile ear to ear the whole day we were riding
When are you getting yours?
How much of a deposit if you don’t mind me asking ?
Same
@@heytodd53074 January early
Hope you doing well Duke. Would love to see you put a video up.
Good to have you back! I was discussing this bike with some friends the other day. It's awesome to see these smaller bikes come to the US! Lower barrier to entry will hopefully lead to more motorcyclists!
Thanks man! Miss riding with you guys. I actually bought a really cool race car recently that I've been doing track days on. Couldn't agree more about the mini's bringing more riders in!
Exactly 🤙🏼
That looked super fun! Really enjoyed the video thoroughly! Keep up the good work!
Good to see that you’re back bud! Hope you’re doing well.
It was so awesome to get to meet you!
and it is fascinating to see how everyone else came at making their videos :D
(ps I think they're making the Navi in India, cuz they were sold in India for a while before they were discontinued there in 2019 )
It was wonderful to meet you as well!
Nice video, looking forward for the Navi scene to lit up, there's a bunch of decals designs on the internet to customize it as well, I got mine (white color) and have been a happy camper ever since, it fits everywhere and the gas/mileage is amazing!
Fab and very informative, regards from India.
I own a 2016 Dec Navi (Orange). Never had an issue and use it as a daily over 50 kms to and fro through all season - rain, summer & winter !
😮👍🏼
Dang! Really miss your reviews! Glad to see you back!
Thank you so much for the kind words!
Welcome back!
Good to see you back chief!
Thank you my friend!! Happy to be back
Cool vid and great review. Great riding with you. Hopefully we do another one soon.
Thank you - Can't wait!
Welcome back DUKE !!
I got mine today and omg so much fun!
Killer video man! Great riding with you. Hope we can get out together again soon!
Can’t wait - thanks for the footage!
Welcome back, Duke! 🙌🙌 1 year, 3 months and two weeks to the day - but who's counting! 😜
Lolol I love it
Loved it man...😁
great bikes every pilot has big smile on their face
Welcome back bro🥳🥳
Thank you! Happy to be back and the warm welcome is very appreciated
Great for riding around the neighborhood
bought my first in 66 and still riding. Think I am going buy one of these.
Great review. I want to get one by next summer, in addition to my Honda CTX700n
The perfect bike to teach my wife how to ride.
I love my ranger green one. great for the city! I am a big guy @ 6’1” 230lbs and is pretty comfy for everyday city distances and manouverability.
🤭
The ranger green definitely my favorite color
Can a person your size take it on a 65mph highway for a few miles of travel in the far right lane? I’m thinking of getting one and I’m about your size but need to take the highway five days a week for about 5-10 miles per day.
How fast does it go with a guy your size? I'm around the same
@@danwatkins5 I live in the Dominican Republic, so our highways are a different speed than yours. However based on my experience and size, I would never get on the freeway on the navi. Is designed for city use and I bought it for that purpose, cutting through traffic, splitting lanes (legal here). Etc
I knew the placed looked familiar. Turns out it was my alma mater. Enjoyed this video and now really considering this as an entry to motorcycles.
I Like IT! Something you can carry on the van and have just in case.
I'm def buying one and wrapping it in orange as soon as I can get one of my dealer friends to secure one without all the stupid fees
Awesome video on an awesome mini motorbike
I’m seriously thinking of getting one for a mini adv bike for my local area. The kick start and storage are a big plus.
My Northern California deal set up today is:
MSRP $1807
Destination 300
Dealer set up 198
Tax (8.25%) 205.43
Tire fee 3.50
Lic/Reg 148
Elec filing 30
Doc fee 85
Total OTD $2776.93
Requested Grasshopper Green or Red
Bought a Metro and Monkey from this dealer in the past. Could get a slightly better deal in the future probably, but not worried about it. This will join the Trail 125, Super Cub, and Ruckus along with the other two I have. Need a Grom to complete the set. Something about these things....
Trail 125 is the sweetest one , I have the 21' Monkey .
What a great video. I recently got mine in the US. I love it. I have one in Nicaragua and they sell at 1500.00 US dollars and come with a helmet. With high gas prices in the US this motorcycle will save me tons of money. Thanks for the review. I really enjoy it.
Yes! 🤑
crazy that these were like US$800 in India and they didn't care for it. Honda is smart bringing it to the US and jacking up the price like crazy.
I very much enjoyed the video. At around 6:00 in the video, you mention that a ton of customization accessories will be available for the Navi. I haven't been able to find any at all so far. Since the Navi isn't going to be available in Thailand, and perhaps not even Japan, it seems possible that the aftermarket accessories for the Navi may have to come from sources different than those for the Grom and Monkey which both had a ton of accessories from Kitaco, H2C, Gcraft, and so on.
The announcement from Honda USA includes this:
"AVAILABLE ACCESSORIES
Here are a couple of ways you can make your new Navi even more fun: Why not add an optional windscreen or a rear cargo rack? And check out our available graphics kit too-it’s a great way to personalize your Navi’s look.."
Yet, the Honda dealer where I bought my Navi has no accessories at all showing as being available from Honda.. A link to where I can get the windshield, rear cargo rack and graphics kit from Honda would be much appreciated. thanks!
The Duke is back!!!Let’s goooooo 👏
Next time come with me!!
one great review!
Nice review.
Wow honda Navi cute bike love it wish there had that honda Navi in England brilliant videos reviews 😀👍🇬🇧❤️
Glad you're back. I hope you keep the vids coming b/c you've been missed
Really appreciate the kind words. All the support has me so jazzed to keep creating
Thanks for the info and the sights, I actually think it's a nice looking machine perhaps I'm just a machine lover. I was about to get one but life, anyways.
Cant wait to see them on the sales floor
Son's Wife's new Navi delivered Dec 31 at Shawnee Honda in Oklahoma. Tops downhill at 55mph and a Blast!
Imagine a body like this for a People 250 with big tires, mid-storage and does 80mph?
im 100% buying it
Hey Duke! I bought your Tuono a few years back! I see you are in the LA area now. I know some great roads if you don't know the area very well. Great video!
Oh shit! You mean you bought mine like mine?! I remember that day very well. Hope the Tuono treated you well! I miss that bike to this day
@@DukeOfDC that bike served me very well! I got into a really bad accident out here and totalled it but got a 2018 Factory Tuono in its place.
@@FuzzyHead88 Sorry to hear about the accident and happy you're healthy and back on another Tuono. The truest testiment to loving a bike is buying it twice
might buy one of these next year for my birthday
Before I watched this video, I didn't know I needed this motorcycle, and now that I have watched it, I definitely know I don't need it.
Nice riding, UCI is a beautiful campus!
I’m planning on getting one soon for my drives to work, I’ve never been on a motorcycle so I feel this would be a great start and then I’ll probably get a full on motorcycle later on.
The fact that it’s so cheap makes it great for me because in a month or two of saving up at work I’ll be able to buy it. I’m currently riding around on a regular bike so this would be a great improvement for me 😂
Did u get it yet ?
@@Enrique-peralta not yet!! Saving up currently, soon though!
exact same reason why I wanna get one, I work a night shift at a restaurant n just want something to get to work and come back home
I bought one over a e bike and I made the best decision considering how expensive e bikes are and the battery would need to be replaced eventually
I am planning to buy one,wheel base 3.5 inches longer than the grom and 15 lbs lighter.
I heard they didn't go over that great in india, but a lot ov exitement in north america, great vid thanks!
In India, 2 wheelers are used for transportation extensively. Navi is just the worst in that regard. On a common scooter people carry stuff on the foot board and in the under seat storage. Also one scooter is used by the family. Sometimes the wife would use it to go to the grocery store sometimes the kid would go use it.
Navi would never appeal to the entire family it's to funky and impractical. Also Indian women wear saree which necessitates step through design.
Damn, I want that modded blue one something fierce!
Good to see you back on the tube!
Happy to be back! Thanks for sticking with me throught the hiatus
2:49 Literally me planning on purchasing one this spring 😆
Once upon at time America was energy independent, 2020 …..gas was 1.69 in New Orleans. LGB. Love the review! Wish they had black
I love my Navi
Love mine
Maybe as a second bike but keeping up with traffic and not being slow on hills is a good thing.
I was going to get a grom but honestly I think I might go for a Navi instead. I just want mine for going to work and joy riding.
I'm a car guy, but always want a bike cruiser like the ruckus. Just now seeing this navi with its price tag, really want one now, but I gotta wait till my wife goes back to japan this summer to visit her family since I already got too many car projects going on already. haha. my bro got a 750cc ninja which he bought yrs ago and only rode it a handful of times since he has no one to ride with, he said if I get this he will start riding again. Now, it is so tempting. haha
P.S. I have anxiety issues and probably will always worry about other drivers, but in my city, there are so many reckless drivers and I live in memphis
Yall doin big things💕 we r NAVINATION#
Oh heck yeah....fun bike! Not sure what I'd do with it, but i like it!
Right?? I thought the same thing, but at that price.... it's like, I'll find an excuse to have one haha
I was looking at this bike but I already have a pcx150 that does 65 and has a trunk on it. I still kinda want one though.
I wish the brakes weren't linked, but for the price definitely getting one.
I plan to get one for door dashing
I'm looking into the navi as my first motorcyle
I have a GY6 swapped ruckus that I paid about the same for, I would like to see how one of these performs comparatively to mine, with a 6’2 200lb rider on it. Nice review. Will definitely check one out next year
I used to import Chinese scooters and your gy6 ruckus is an abomination. I know because I was dumb enough to do it also. Don't compare your Frankenstein to something actually coming out of a Honda factory new.
This thing would smoke your gy6. That is if she starts on race day.
This can change the delivery game in cities in america
Love this bike
Now the best budget way to get my 260 as s from 40 mph to 50-55 mph
I regret selling my grom. Price point makes me want a navi. I have everything from a nm4, bussa up to a gl1800 but these small bikes are just fn fun.
I'm in a similar situation. I no longer have a grom but I have a couple other big bikes and I definitely find the Honda Navi appealing almost a better bang for the buck than the grom was... I miss scooting around on my old Ruckus also
I just wish had a better fuel system. I haven't had a bike with a fuel petcock in years. The carb doesn't bother me, my Reflex 250 has one and runs without any issues even in Chicago -10F winters and 110F summers.
OMMMMMMMMMG I want one. I keep saying I'm not going to get one, and I keep watching videos, going on the website and planning lol
You should get a Monkey .
@@joecamel6835 I love that one too. I love Honda. I think I may get a Rebel 500 :D
Hi their, honda navi is near 800us in india when it was but, no fuel meter yeah but its fun to ride but if its coming with better features than its gonna be litt 🔥
The Navi is a cool bike.I been Watching Qausi Motard at You Tube.He bought a Navi a few months back in Houston Texas where he lives.Ty for sharing try a ice bear rocket 50 scooter when u can..😎🙏🇺🇲
I rode my buddies last week went and bought one today! They are a bit more than $18xx mine was $2600 out the door after all the fees and crap
Watched this great video and went to my dealer the next day and put a deposit down on one. My dealer hadn't even heard of this bike yet. When are they supposed to be available?
i am hoping to get one this year as a back up for my Ebike my only mode of transport
What ever happened to DukeeofDC ? Have not heard anything for over a year ? Miss your bike reviews and first rides :)
I can see this everywhere in Hawaii in few years.
Dude, this thing with a 50cc Minerelli 2 stroke would be awesome. It would have so much more modding potential. The ability to use existing performance parts from scooters would have been a cool selling point. Exhausts, big bore kits, variators and transmission kits, kind of a missed opportunity. But this is how it was made for India so I think theyre just trying to get their R&D back now.
Motorcyles cannot be sold with 2 stroke engines anymore due to emissions regulations.
@@BananaMana69 You can still buy a minerelli engine and put it into whatever you want.
@@pauld.b7129 Does minerelli make bugger then 50cc engines with 90cc heads? I think 2 stroke Navi would be sick, but it wouldn't be any faster unless theres bigger engines.
wow!! Thank you for the information. Too bad I still need license to ride it. 😭 I failed test and now scares me more to go back to try again. It would been great help if beginners have chance to build the experience with those kinds bike.
Don’t be discouraged! Get back out there and give it one more chance. Stay focused, listen to your instructor, and trust the bike :)
Honestly since you already went through it once, you’re most likely going to be able to do better the second time around. I’d say give it a shot
Can find a used Buell Blast for under $1600 as well. Very easy to ride 500cc bike.
What about the MSF rider course? If you take that you don't need the test, right? That's what I did, but that was 25 years ago... 😕
@@K03sport I took the MSF, felt much more at ease than going to the RMV to take the test. MSF instructors really care since that's their specialty, RMV workers don't see how much you've learned and are just there to get everyone scheduled that day done. Recommend MSF, took it about 6 months ago. 9 of us there, all passed
Yay your not dead!!! Welcome back!!
I’m alive!! It’s like I’ve been reborn Lolol feels great to be back
I don't ride, yet, but I hope to eventually and when I saw this at the IMS this year, I knew that this was the biek that I want to get when/if I get my license. Since one of the bostables to me getting a bike is my wife, bI'm hoping that a small bike for riding around town on would be something she'd be more ok with me riding since therw would be no freewya rdiing involved. The other factor is the low cost, at $1,800 it's dirt cheap and won't break the bank to get.
Still don’t see any PayPal account listed so your fans can send you some support. Love to see you get back into many motorcycle reviews. It’s like riding with a friend. Many thanks.
AND WE’RE BACK!!!
Thought you guys all might find this useful, I bought one last month, not due in until March or so. $1807 MSRP, license/reg $58.61, Doc Fee $289, Freight is $300 now, sales tax $177.58, bike setup $99. $2731.19 is my all-in, out the door price. I ordered the dark green, they can't promise me I will get that color but I have the choice to wait for it if I really want it, but I'm good with Honda Red as well. A $200 deposit was all that was required.
Sweet! Congrats man... I think I need one 👻
What dealer did you get from did they charge any dealer markup
@@ballejosRB11 Western Honda Powersports in South Scottsdale. I actually just paid for my bike and it's set up and I'm picking it up tomorrow. It's a thing of beauty in person, a lot of little things I didn't even know were part of it, I basically bought it on a whim without doing much research. They added no dealer markup, but the one thing that pissed me off was I put my down payment in last December and in January of this year Honda changed the setup fee from 100 to 200, and the dealership forced me to pay $200 instead of 100, I thought that was a little cheap of the dealership.
@@russellphotos195 thanks sir here in California they all add Mark up I want one but think it's going to be around 3300
@@ballejosRB11 Yeah it really all does depend. I paid a total of $2,800 for my bike. If I were to have bought it in North Scottsdale, I would have most likely paid $3,700 out the door. I have seen huge discrepancies in markup, and California is definitely a more expensive state, all said and done, $3,300 isn't too bad for a little bike like this, although I will get back to you in the next couple of months on how it performs and if there are any issues, kind of crappy timing that summer just arrived but this thing is mostly for early morning drives.
I looked up Honda online there's like a $200 charge to get it to your dealer there's another $100 charge the bar on the back is also extra like $60 and then you have to pay tax it's about $2,300 not $1,800 . I do see on their website that's the base price but what good is the base price you're not going to go to the factory and pick it up you have to get it at the dealer .
Where im from the navi will cost around 3,000 Puerto Rico 😑
My pcx 150 cost me 5,500 but im falling in love with the navi
Yea right more like 5k. In New York there going for 2,500-3,500 out the door with all the dealer fees.
$1,807 is base MSRP. Add in the non-negotiable freight/destination that's listed directly on Honda's Navi page and Sales tax, you're at $2400 MINIMUM. There are going for closer to $2,900 out the door, and many are well over $3,000.
$3000 wtf
That's a little high, you can get a good used R3 for that. Dealers need to be lowering their fees if they want to stay in business. As of a month ago, the national stats(in the U.S. anyway)reported that 27 percent of motorcycles registered are 13 years older. Shows people are buying more older bikes which is probably due to dealers upping the fees and newer bike prices in general. I'd love a little Grom a Navi to cruise around town, but I wouldn't be paying 3 grand for a Navi..I'd just get a good used R3
Balboa you just rode by my house...OC is the place to be and live...obviously..😎
We need more duke!
Duke is back baby!!
you *need* to have a center stand for the way the Navi is set up... if you started it up on the kick stand it is likely to take off if you did not engage the hand-brake.
You can't start the engine if the kick stand is down. My Honda Silverwing 600 is the same.
@@brianfraser2495 I was running my little hypothetical under the impression you could. Sorry if I did not make that clear.
I want one 😁
They are gonna sell so many of those things.
What kind of lock 🔐 would you recommend for this bike? And what's a good light weight summer helmet; good quality & inexpensive price point?
oh man the sub for a compartment looks kinda sweet uh oh
Out of the dealer is almost U$ 3000...Crazy for 109cc.
That's what I paid. others wanted 3400 and 3200 shop around if u want I think fair in America on the west coast would be 2700
I wish you would quote the real price it will take to buy this bike. On average after freight, setup, and other misc fees, it takes between $2700-3000 to buy this, if you can find one ... lol
Great little bike never the less, I was able to get one and its exactly as advertised, build to a price point but not feeling super cheap.
Hate how the dealerships are hiking the prices up. Cheapest quote on one of these bad boys is $2600 in Illinois.

Navi army!!
is there a chance they could ship it to Philippines? 🥰🥰 This is the first time I feel in love with a bike. 🥰🥰 I am a 4'9 ft. woman, and I think this would be very very great for me. hahahaha
Sounds perfect 😎
Honda released this mini bike for ~700 USD in India @ 2016 but it doesn't succeed there. They stopped Navi @ 2020 due to new emission norms. I see this as a beach bike you can rent while you are on your holidays. The real secret behind the cheap pricing is literally there is no R&D that went into this bike, this is kind of a combination of different parts from other Honda bikes in emerging markets.
I’m quite vertically challenged, I was wondering if I’d be able to fit on this bike alright. I’m 6’4, would my knees be into the handlebars or would I be too bunched up?
I've seen a 6'1" rider on one. At 6'4" you'd be at the very limit at fitting. If your torso & legs are proportional, could work decent.
