    Got one coming with my name on it. Takes me back to my old ct70 days. I don’t care if gas is $6 or $3 a gallon, the Monkey bike is just cool.

    The Monkey was/is a limit edition even before gas prices , each dealership only gets 1-4 once or twice a year .I just paid my registration for a year for 24 bucks but surprise it was for two years ! I pay 18 bucks a month for full coverage insurance too !

    I enjoyed watching the "Maiden Voyage"! Looks like fun! Some people say they had problems not breaking in an engine but I think they should be like cars now. It seamed like it took for ever to break in my boat motor but $6,000 isn't cheap. Now you need a bunch of friends to ride with you that have Monkeys that would look cool seeing that come over a hill or horizon! Stay cool and have fun.

    Nostalgic product takes me back 50 years. Elections having consequences is a realistic apolitical statement. We will be joining you shortly in the Great State of Arizona having just closed on our 2nd property and building #3. The Monkey, Trail and Grom are all great little bikes. I too would look for an MSRP Dealer and am not in a hurry. Looking forward to an occasional break from the H-D to a purposeful fun little bike. I very much enjoy all of the content. I initially stumbled upon your channel for reloading. God Bless and safe travels.

    I’m about 235 pounds and my 2020 Monkey hauls me around just fine. As you said, it’s not for the interstate, but it’ll handle county roads and around town well enough. It really does very well off-road with a set of nobbies on it. I took mine for a spin today, and it always feels good to ride it.
    For those mirrors, get yourself a set of mirror extensions off of eBay. I did that and it made a world of difference.
    I passed through AZ on I-40 on my Harley Road Glide at the end of February on my way from Los Angeles to Colorado. I always love traveling in AZ. Great place to ride, listen to music, and check out the nooks and crannies along the way. 👍🏻
    Edited to add: I just watched your mirror extension video, so never mind my note on those. You already know their value. 😉

Vehicles are in short supply, so low volume dealers do outrageous makeups. I'm glad you went elsewhere.
