Older I get, the more I love small cc bikes and man does the Monkey and the CT125 got that cool right now. I love the exhaust too, all 8 horses screaming as you motor along with a smile on your face!
Love your synopsis. I took the same rte. I bought the Monkey for cruising around town and the mountain roads in Colorado. The thing weighs 240lbs. Then I picked up a TW200 for more off-road adventures. TW weights 290ish. Both are way more convenient to pull out of the garage and go. Both fit in the back of a pickup or travel van. You can load up your camping van with either bike get to campsite and continue to explore on your bike. Awesome machines for what they were built for.
Fun video! I use my Monkey mostly on the ORV trails here in Michigan and I find your review spot on. The 14 tooth front sprocket makes second gear much more useable.
Great video my buddy just bought a monkey Friday i am really not a bike guy bet videos like this are breaking me down my brother and i had Honda ct 70 trails this brings back awesome memories thanks have a great day be safe.
Glad you are enjoying the Honda Monkey👏I just wish i was over there with you as there’s nothing like that where i live in Oxford UK😞Take Care & Keep on Enjoying yourself as much as you can🤞🙏👍
Thanks for the video. My kind of riding. I'm early 60s and started with a Honda CT 70 in Jr. high. We have a small farm that a Monkey would be perfect for. You've got me itching for one. Thanks again for the video.
Hahaha..Uncle voodoo, hit the trail on his hog .sounds like that's the perfect amount of exercise for us old guys...what fun, and it's a great excuse to get out and keep active..great video
I had a Hoinda 50cc mini trail bike while still living in the Philippines in the late 70s. Even with its tiny 10 inch fat knobby tires, it can easily climb hills and can even cross shallow streams Top speed was only about 40 KPH but it was utterly reliable and perhaps more fun riding it than the new bigger and faster 125.
Brother, thank you for convincing me on the idea of buying this as my second bike. I have a cruiser, but this would be fun to take off-roading when I get those cravings
I like your whole rationalization process that brought you to the Monkey. I've been going back-and-forth between the Honda Monkey and a Honda Cub Trail CT-125. Thank you for the video. I hope you have a lot of good times.
They both have strengths and weaknesses, I basically look at them like this- if you want a play bike, get the monkey. If you want a camp/travel bike get the CT125.
Love the videos on the Monkey bike and your thoughts on selecting it and what you get up to going forward. Got to say I am a little jealous as although we have some great scenery in the UK we don't have the off road places you can ride to explore and go camp.
There is no better place to ride a Monkey than where I live. In Pinetop-Lakeside, AZ, there are more Pine Trees per square mile than any place on the planet; not just the United States. Endless trails and winding hilly roads. This place is a Monkey owners paradise.
One of good things about Monkey is that you get forgiven stuff you would not get if on big bike. This bike is something like Volvo among cars. Other drivers will not do you some bullshit in stead give you smile. That's fine feeling, you feel good if you know you are perceived by others positively.
The CT70 never had a dual range gear box. The C90 had the dual range gearbox. The new Honda Trail 125 does not have the dual range gearbox! It's gear lowered and seems to be most comfortable around 40-45MPH. Not ideal. My 73 CT90 will run 50-55 in high range.
I guess it all depends on what your definition of adventure bike is. My buddy has an African Twin. Him and his wife load that thing down with tents, cooking gear, clothes, and whatever else you need to go camping. He takes 2 weeks off work and starts riding and tries to stay off paved roads the entire way. He has a blast. I am a HUGE fan of small bikes. I have an original Monkey, CT70, CT90 and an RV90. I love them. But they are not at heart an "adventure bike". I have owned numerous dual sports. CRF250L, KLX250S, DRZ400s, and an XR650L. All great bikes. My problem with them is I can't ride them more than an hour on the street without hurting so bad I can hardly move! I believe Adventure bikes of all types are intended to be 90/10 or 95/5 bikes. They are mostly on the road, and the off road portion is for gravel roads, and groomed trails. I would not want to take my Versys-X anywhere that I took my dual sports. I know guys ride them hard, and take them places that dirt bikes go, but its not the right tool for the job in my opinion. I have I was going to seriously try to solo adventure ride I would buy a KTM640 adventure. 340lbs. 100 lbs heavier than a Monkey bike! Good comfort and more off road capable than a normal adventure bike.
I found a couple moto dealers who happen to have all these miniMotos, 5 to chose from. I was able to check the TNT Bennelli 135, z125 Kawasaki, Honda Navi and Grom and the sales man mentions "oh yeah, we have a Monkey" ....It brought such joy and feelings from childhood riding the old 70cc ...I left a deposit for the new Black one
@@UncleVoodoo Thanks for responding. I'm excited and feel 13 again Lol I'm picking up a new 22' Black ABS tomorrow morning. The dealership tried to play the "well we might be able to get one from another store by Friday" game and called me the next day and said "it's here" when can you pick it up ( gawd I love retirement hahaha)I'm in no hurry Lol ....so, my deposit is for one day I guess Lol ...Jan. bike sales are slow I guess Lol smH Looking forward to my Monkey future ;) ...thanks for these videos, "help" in making the decision, stay safe. Look forward to future Monkey content ;)
Outstanding review. It’s a grass roots explanation sort of thing I needed . I own the 20 Super Cub 125 c and now I’m pulling the trigger soon on the monkey . Thanks.
I think you have your settings wrong no way that looks like 108OP it looks blurred! I think its the FPS you need it at 60FPS if going at speed! I use a go pro hero 3 black and has far better footage than in your video!
Great video sir! I absolutely love my little yellow monkey and exploring on it is a blast. I have the yoshi pipe too. I’ve got some ohlin HO919 shocks coming. I hate the standard shocks. Keep posting videos, by the way I love those tyres.
Enjoyed your video and the ADV bike breakdown comparison. So true. Heard you mention Bark Busters for your Monkey. I ordered the T Rex Barbusters myself. Installation is easy enough, however I noticed much wiggle play with the clutch lever afterwards. I had to go buy a bigger 10mm spacer from the hardware store and cut it down to size and install it instead. It solved the clutch lever play. I let T Rex know of the issue but they did not seem very concerned about it. Just sharing in case you were looking into those.
Monkeys are expensive..4,800.00 out the door on a 2022. I also have a Yamaha TW 200 also a great bike! for a few hundred dollars more you can get the TW 200, but i love the monkey also
Those roads look like a ton of fun, such a great bike for that type of riding. The RS3 is a good choice, I run Big Blocks instead of the Maxxis but both are so much better than stock when you're looking for even a little dirt.
great vid, i started motorbiking few years back, with my keeway k-light 125 and thought i buy bigger cc bike, but oh boy, i was wrong, im getting the monkey too!
It looks like it could use a skid plate. The exhaust looks very vulnerable. Been thinking about one for a while this video pushed me even closer who knows maybe even today my dealer has two.
Understand the suspension limitations that come with only 4 inches of travel. Have you tried playing with tire pressure to soften initial impacts. On my TW, on rocky roads i aired down to 11 pounds, it helped. Am giving the Monkey serious consideration, mrgizmow.
I love my blue Monkey! I use it for road riding/trail riding about 50/50 down here in Alabama. Which tires are you using? I’ve been looking at the Shinko mobbers, but I’m nervous about losing comfort on pavement? The stock tires have pretty much handled whatever I’ve needed off road, but could have been a little better. But on the road they are great, so I’m torn which direction to go?
I really enjoy all of your videos I wonder who can tell me I'm sorry that's been asking for what kind of heat is coming off of that Yoshi can? Are you not burning the inside of your right thigh just sitting on the bike? Thank you, in advance can't wait for the next video
thanks for the comment. the pipe does get hotter to the touch than the stock pipe but I do not notice heat when riding while seated (even in shorts). when standing my leg is in constant contact with it but I haven't scorched any clothing nor felt the heat when doing so (haven't tried that in shorts though). that was one of main my worries when I bought the pipe but its actually better than I expected. actually- at one point early in this video I do a u turn on the gravel road, that is because I realized my hat was missing. I rode all the way home looking for it (favorite hat lol) only to find it caught in the pipe heat shield, it didn't even put a mark on the hat. I expected it to be melted when I pulled it out.
My girlfriend and I are looking at getting 2 monkey bikes. They look like a blast. Being 58 years old and an experienced dirt rider, I haven’t ridden in a while but I know I miss it, a lot! Ive tried my buddies monkey bike and really like it. Wish they were a less expensive. I wish Honda would’ve done something different with the pipe for clearance. After upgrading to the Yoshi pipe, did you have to change any adjustments to the motor? Thank you
Hi top video bud, Own a few bikes, from a HD Breakout to a ktm superduke.. Also own a yellow monkey from 2018. In my opinion the best bike of then all.. ie fun factor. Quick question, I have kenda big block tyres on. Do you find the speedo out with your off road tyres? Many thanks.. Keep riding Stay safe
excellent video i to have some vids offroad what's your thoughts on extending the front mudguard down to stop the build up on the engine its something that annoys me
I think I just melted my monkey 181 riding it from salt lake city to moab. Hit near 100 degrees. Mechanic is going a compression n leak down test today. I'm trying to set up t monkey to handle long trips going 55 to 60 mph all day. Its questionable at this point. Ping me back with your email if u wld like to share ideas. Like u I'm in my fifties but I have 50 lbs more body mass
im setting mine up for long trips at lesser speeds (30-45mph) as im trying to link up gravel roads. im trying to keep my 55-60mph pavement runs as short as I can.
The resale price is fantastic. Honda mini's have always held there value. That 400 dollar machine was only 50ccs with a top speed of 25 or so. It's hard to compare them for value.
Older I get, the more I love small cc bikes and man does the Monkey and the CT125 got that cool right now. I love the exhaust too, all 8 horses screaming as you motor along with a smile on your face!
Have you gotten one yet? I'd love the new ct125
The Monkey is ridiculous amounts of fun to ride. Rode one on PCH (aka route 1) from Huntington Beach to Dana Point. No issues keeping up with traffic.
Love your synopsis. I took the same rte. I bought the Monkey for cruising around town and the mountain roads in Colorado. The thing weighs 240lbs. Then I picked up a TW200 for more off-road adventures. TW weights 290ish. Both are way more convenient to pull out of the garage and go. Both fit in the back of a pickup or travel van.

Great review , just put a down payment on a yellow 2021 should be getting it any day on delivery
You need a film crew. Even a film crew of one would make your life so much simpler.
Not only did you show the Monkey is capable off road, you are also revealed as a good off road rider.
Glad you are enjoying the Honda Monkey👏I just wish i was over there with you as there’s nothing like that where i live in Oxford UK😞Take Care & Keep on Enjoying yourself as much as you can🤞🙏👍

Brother, thank you for convincing me on the idea of buying this as my second bike. I have a cruiser, but this would be fun to take off-roading when I get those cravings
I like the Honda Monkey, it's my favorite, my second choice is the Trail (Hunter Cub). Thanks for the video!
I like your whole rationalization process that brought you to the Monkey. I've been going back-and-forth between the Honda Monkey and a Honda Cub Trail CT-125. Thank you for the video. I hope you have a lot of good times.
They both have strengths and weaknesses, I basically look at them like this- if you want a play bike, get the monkey. If you want a camp/travel bike get the CT125.
Did you end up getting one or the other?
No. Might have a mixture of analysis peralysis. Lol The Honda ADV-150 is on the radar, now. All have a niche and legendary Honda reliability.
@@123edwardzpad I'm wanting one of these 2 as well, with the adv on my outside scope as is the grom. Whatever it is will be my first bike.
Love the videos on the Monkey bike and your thoughts on selecting it and what you get up to going forward. Got to say I am a little jealous as although we have some great scenery in the UK we don't have the off road places you can ride to explore and go camp.
There is no better place to ride a Monkey than where I live. In Pinetop-Lakeside, AZ, there are more Pine Trees per square mile than any place on the planet; not just the United States. Endless trails and winding hilly roads. This place is a Monkey owners paradise.
Dead ends make great camp sites... That bikes kind of noisy when it's in the woods. You're not going to be very stealthy.
i think its a great choice for a adventure bike and for others that chose bigger bike plz there's a technic to lift up your bike solo if you fall
Great video; thank you for giving us a comprehensive insight. I'm certainly warming to purchasing a Monkey bike in yellow
Great video man ! 👍🏼
I love the little growl of the exhaust :)
ya that pipe doesn't do much for performance, but it sounds lovely.
This video is giving me some inspiration to build a little adventure bike out of the ct125 once it gets to america
I’m going to buy one as well, I think the Monkey is the better hooligan dirt bike but the CT125 would be the better adventure bike,
One of good things about Monkey is that you get forgiven stuff you would not get if on big bike. This bike is something like Volvo among cars. Other drivers will not do you some bullshit in stead give you smile. That's fine feeling, you feel good if you know you are perceived by others positively.
I wish Honda would release a granny low option like the 70’s trail 70 had !!!
They are! The new 125 coming out next year no review as yet though, but it's an alternative.
Good news, they are 😀
The CT70 never had a dual range gear box. The C90 had the dual range gearbox. The new Honda Trail 125 does not have the dual range gearbox! It's gear lowered and seems to be most comfortable around 40-45MPH. Not ideal. My 73 CT90 will run 50-55 in high range.
Thanks for a great video! That makes sense! The economy makes it as environmentally sound as a motorcycle can be. Great sounding too. Easy to handle.

I totally agree with your choice of motorcycle, i just would upgrade the clutch/tires/ chain/sprockets/ carry extra fuel
Great job. Enjoyed your review 👍
The pit bike skid plate fits, sir :)
which one? I like a skid plate but can't find one that fits with my pipe.

if I had the $ and space id have a super cub and trail 125 to go along with the monkey and Himalayan!

Great review of a great little bike - I want one!
Hey sir! I really like your video it's pretty funny 😁👍🏻👍🏻
Remember the Adventure Cub is coming soon!!!
Thank you for demonstrating the Monkey makes a good trail bike
The $750.00 Ohlins rear suspension and stainless steel Core brake lines has transformed my Banana 🍌 Monkey!!!
I don’t know why my GoPro video always looks like crap, it ends at 5:22. ATV trails start at 11:15.
I think you have your settings wrong no way that looks like 108OP it looks blurred! I think its the FPS you need it at 60FPS if going at speed! I use a go pro hero 3 black and has far better footage than in your video!
cliffy amo I just looked at the settings, it’s at 1080p 30fps. I’ll bump up the frame rate next time.
Great video sir! I absolutely love my little yellow monkey and exploring on it is a blast. I have the yoshi pipe too. I’ve got some ohlin HO919 shocks coming. I hate the standard shocks. Keep posting videos, by the way I love those tyres.
Thanks. I definitely need those shocks for the loads im carrying, the stock suspension is pretty weak.
Uncle Voodoo there is a video on here of a guy who fits Mnthbx shocks to his monkey and he’s over 300lbs. The shocks don’t bottom out at all.
Nice bike made me want to get my sl 175 out of storage.
Reminds me of my (Honda) Mini-Trail of the late 60's.
Man this is so cool , I’m getting ready to make the leap and grab one of these bikes 🐒
To be honest 55 is good enough, any more and you might as well be in a car. Thanks for the vid!
damn. I want to buy one after I watch your videos. lol
I remember the original. I must admit I was attracted to the Monkey. I decided to buy the RE Himalayan.

The claimed mpg figure is for UK gallons. It does it, as well.
You definitely beed to upgrade that suspension!!! Especially the type of trails you ride
Love the videos.
Thanks!
It also has places under the seat /side that you can store extra fuel!!
It looks like it could use a skid plate. The exhaust looks very vulnerable. Been thinking about one for a while this video pushed me even closer who knows maybe even today my dealer has two.
There are only 2 skid plates available for it and neither are good. I just try pick the best lines I can to avoid trouble.
@@UncleVoodoo How about the t-rex? the video it looks pretty good but always hard to tell. Thanks for the information.

very nice video, very nice! thx for posting--
I would think about upgrading the clutch if your going off-road

Understand the suspension limitations that come with only 4 inches of travel. Have you tried playing with tire pressure to soften initial impacts. On my TW, on rocky roads i aired down to 11 pounds, it helped. Am giving the Monkey serious consideration, mrgizmow.

Hi top video bud,
Own a few bikes, from a HD Breakout to a ktm superduke..
Also own a yellow monkey from 2018.
In my opinion the best bike of then all.. ie fun factor.
Quick question, I have kenda big block tyres on. Do you find the speedo out with your off road tyres?
Many thanks..
Keep riding
Stay safe
yes, mine read 4-5mph fast.
excellent video i to have some vids offroad what's your thoughts on extending the front mudguard down to stop the build up on the engine its something that annoys me
There isn’t much room to work with but some sort of mud flap could work, just have to be careful of it get caught by the tire.
Excellent riding trails!!! I wanna join!!! We would have 2 bananas 🍌
cool!!!
Since you ride off road a lot I'm wondering if you geared it down with the 14 tooth sprocket or something else.
Yes, it has a 14t sprocket

The resale price is fantastic. Honda mini's have always held there value. That 400 dollar machine was only 50ccs with a top speed of 25 or so. It's hard to compare them for value.
