Why these are so damn fun, it is 100% perception of speed without actual speed. Between the small size, surprisingly punchy 0-30 acceleration, and getting to wring it out all day long when you're riding it, you 'feel' like you're going fast, without ever getting yourself into trouble. Haven't regretted getting mine for one minute. What was most surprising is the number of compliments and questions I've gotten about it. I live in a county full of compensators. You just don't see minibikes like this driving around. Our local Honda dealership still has 03 models. So when people see it, they are curious. Then they freaking want one, LOL!
Well said, that's exactly how I feel about the Navi. I love this thing, I try to find any excuse to ride it, like "oh we need something from the store, I got it" And you're right, I get compliments and questions everywhere I go. This guy that works at a gas station I go to said he's saving up to get one.
I think it depends on the type of commute those 13 miles are. I like the ease of the Navi but the Grom has a little more get up. I live in a little city where the speed limits are mostly 45 and under so the Navi is great here.
Nice video.. I'm just about to purchase one (grasshopper green) at SC dealership.. thanx for the video.. and I like the way you ride urs..🛵 Stay safe..👍
@@gllougreig9236 the front forks lock in place turned so you can't just roll it away. I also have a lock and chain that I'll put through the rim and then through the handlebars if I'm gonna be somewhere for a while.
No, it only goes 50 so I haven't even tried it. I live in a little college town so it's perfect for around town and on the country roads around here and what not.
Ièm thinking about it but I hated the Honda 360 Twin and 200XL dirtt bike. I might give the navi a chance-have seen so many positive reviews on it, but I am vary loyal to Yamaha.
Great question, I think the Navi is way better than a ruckus but that's just my opinion. It probably has to do with the fact that it's made in Mexico and has drum brakes and it's carburated as opposed to fuel injection.
@@thebigtripper They discontinued them in India because of new emission laws or something, so we're basically getting what was left over. That, plus the things you mentioned. Love mine.
I love the nut brown, it's not a color you see very often. I'm from socal myself, born in Orange and grew up in Palmdale. Definitely miss that beautiful weather.
Been riding a Goldwing for over 3 years now and just got a Navi for a second bike. Love it.
Nice!
Just hit 16000 miles on my 2022 navi and just keeps working better ❤
Nice, that's the kind of dependability I was looking for buying a Honda.
Mix seafoam product with gas to clean gas and combustion system.
Works great
Very good, down to earth review, telling all the stuff you want to know about and not just a "spec list" ! Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
You can't go wrong with the Honda navy, totally awesome.
I love mine and thanks for sharing
I'm also 6'2" 230, love my Navi...but... Hills and even strong wind are a factor for sure.
Pollini Carb and Yoshimura exhaust transforms the bike. Accelerates up hills and hits 50mph easily.

i love mine i got mine back in october last year used with 5 miles for 2250$ and now i have over 550 miles on mine and loving it!
Nice! Wish I could have found a deal like that!
I just did a serious downgrade from a Harley Davidson 48 to a Honda Navi and now I love my Navi.
Nice! What's not to love about the Navi, it's just fun!
I work 13 miles from my home do you think the navi would be okay for daily commute or the grom would be more optimal option?
I think it depends on the type of commute those 13 miles are. I like the ease of the Navi but the Grom has a little more get up. I live in a little city where the speed limits are mostly 45 and under so the Navi is great here.
Nice video.. I'm just about to purchase one (grasshopper green) at SC dealership.. thanx for the video.. and I like the way you ride urs..🛵
Stay safe..👍
Thank you! You're gonna love it. I wanted the grasshopper green but it wasn't available in my area.
Great video. I’m 6’ 2” 205lbs. I owned a ‘03 Vino and loved it. Think I’ll be buying a Navi now. What mic you use ? Sounds good …..
good video, keep up the good work. you've got yourself a new subscriber.
Thanks James, I appreciate it!
Good video, insurance isn’t too bad for a the bike right? Compared to a car??
No, insurance is super cheap. I paid $70 for a year with GEICO. About $5 a month ain't bad.
I love that color...very tactical
Did you ride it to Topeka? I just got one and my daughter lives in Lawrence. It would be cool to ride to Lawrence.
Yeah, I've rode it to Topeka, KC, I've been all over on this thing.
How do u lock it up when going into public places?

Hey my guy, do you feel okay riding this on the highway? Id feel like I would be too slow even at it's top speed.
No, it only goes 50 so I haven't even tried it. I live in a little college town so it's perfect for around town and on the country roads around here and what not.
@@thebigtripper Thanks for the fast reply!
Wait did you just say Lawrence? Lk KS? I’m in Kcmo. Tryna get a ride group together?
Yup, I'm in Lawrence. I'm down though.
You rode the Navi on highway 40?
Yup, I've been all over on the Navi.

Good stuff! Where did you get the Pro Taper? Thx
I got the Pro Taper pad and grips from Temu, I have a grip install video on my channel if you're interested.
@@thebigtripper thx I will check it out!
💯💯💯
It should be 125cc like their other small motorcycles.
Nice video. Thank you
Thank you!
How does the Ruckus cost 1k more then this?
Great question, I think the Navi is way better than a ruckus but that's just my opinion. It probably has to do with the fact that it's made in Mexico and has drum brakes and it's carburated as opposed to fuel injection.
@@thebigtripper They discontinued them in India because of new emission laws or something, so we're basically getting what was left over. That, plus the things you mentioned. Love mine.
Cool Thanks
They going to have to make an electronic fuel injection before I would ever consider this. Carburetors just don't get it for me.
My daughter got that same color . NUT BROWN LOL . HERE IN SUNNY 🌞 SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA 😊
I love the nut brown, it's not a color you see very often. I'm from socal myself, born in Orange and grew up in Palmdale. Definitely miss that beautiful weather.
@thebigtripper my daughter lives in the city of yucaipa so this is perfect for a daily rider and saves $ on gas ⛽️ !
Too bad I could barely hear you
Yeah, first video, still trying to get audio figured out.
@@thebigtripper Still enjoyed it...
what's with the low res video quality?
Not sure why it defaults to a lower res, you can change the playback resolution settings and raise it to 1080p though
your internet sucks that’s why
50mph and stong wind not cool on the Navi
50 with no wind is too fast on a navi
Hi
It’s not a Honda. Just a Honda sticker. It’s made in Mexico. 🇲🇽. Not known for reliability.
Hondas are made in several different countries 😉
Slow as molasses!
that is about the most useless POS that Honda has come up with so far
