Unfortunately it's only going to be the orange ASBO. I say unfortunately because I love both bikes, still love the KTM ha. The Monkey isn't working at the moment. I'll show you pics at ABR of why it isn't running haha.
Who said 1,200 cc is needed to do serious off-roading? (I just sold my Triumph 900 scrambler and bought a Monkey 2024) this is much more practical and can get yourself out of any hole due to the light weight.
Haha too right! They are such brilliant bikes off road. So simple to ride, bounce over most things and super light to pick up or pull out if you drop it or get stuck
You say that.. but then everyone sees how much fun you're having and suddenly everyone has one haha. 3rd is around 40mph, on a flat stock in 5th you'll get around 50-55. Sometimes you get 60
Hi Sam, I kept an eye out for you at ABR today but didn't see you. I would of messaged but I had no signal all day. I will look out for you tomorrow but if you get this and want to arrange a time and place, we can meet up and get a coffee? Just let me know 👍
@@SamVBikes no problem mate, phone signal was awful, I didn't have any all weekend. It was a great time, far bigger and more spread out than I expected! There was so many people too, it's no wonder our paths didn't cross. I made the mistake of going mad trying to do as much as I could on Friday and overdid things with my knee so yesterday I was at the speakers stage from mid morning onwards and resting, all the speakers were fascinating! I'm going back next year for sure! 👍
@michaelmclarney1994 haha yeah not surprised. I was struggling to get hold of the people I was camping with haha! I'll make sure we set a time and location to catch up next time!
Monkey content is king
Too right!
That's it! I'm packing my things and moving to the UK to ride with you gents!
Honestly such a bloody giggle
Just you guys and a lot of big adventure bikes😂 love it
Might have to do it next year and actually try to win. 2 morons on Monkey bikes beating big KTMs, BMWs and Teneres aha
@@SamVBikes You have to do it!!
Hi Sam, that looks like an absolute blast! The fun you are both having comes across so well!
It's such a good laugh on these things. The laugh as you go past people, or overtake someone stuck in the mud!
@@SamVBikes they are such amazing little bikes! Are you taking it to ABR this weekend or is it the orange ASBO?
Unfortunately it's only going to be the orange ASBO. I say unfortunately because I love both bikes, still love the KTM ha. The Monkey isn't working at the moment. I'll show you pics at ABR of why it isn't running haha.
@@SamVBikes sorry to hear that but look forward to seeing the pics. I'm arriving Friday, working Thursday. How shall we arrange to meet up?
These Monkey 125s are such a blast off-road! Actually just sold my DRZ400 because I take the Monkey off-roading way more than I did the DRZ.
AHH Nice! Love that!
Well that was really fun to watch look forward to episode 2
I better get editing it! ha
Cracking vlog.... Love those monkey bikes 😎👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you! Brilliant aren't they!
love the lil monkeys keep it up
Haha thanks!
Another ridiculous and hilarious video courtesy of the best bikes in your fleet 😂
😂😂 most powerful weapon in the fleet too
More fun than anyone should be able to have whilst fully dressed!
Haha! Very true

I need to come and do this next year, SamV monkey tour?
Now that sounds like a great idea!
Monkey be like, “Now you get off MY BACK and ride a tiger here instead😂”
😂😂😂
Those bikes look like so much fun, but i'd be the only one who had one i ride with.....how fast in 3rd gear on the road?

@@SamVBikes honest honest to God I've never looked into them. I thought then we had three gears. 🤣😂 oops 55 is good for over here!!!

Sorry pal! Just got home. Had basically no signal all weekend! Hope you had a good one!

@@SamVBikes good idea, it might of helped if you knew what I looked like, I'm easily spotted! 😂😂
Watching you two I've come to the conclusion that riding Monkeys makes you do stupid things. 😅
The lack of brain cells between us definitely helps with that too 😂
SUPBERB 😂
