*my top speed was 105 kph* #MONKEYBUSINESS - Hope you enjoy this RAW shorty! Usually I wouldn't upload those but since I'll be away from home a lot during the upcoming weeks I decided to go for it. I wanted to give you a quick lifesign basically ;) Plus it'll be interesting to see if a shorter RAW performs better than my usual ones. For many months now my videos perform exceptionally bad unfortunately. Whatever. I won't stop. BTW: If you're a CB500 fan like me you can get the coolest T-shirt in the world for ONE MORE DAY here: www.seedshirt.de/little-500
I had the original Honda MSX, and I had the most fun on it that I have ever had in my entire life! I slapped on some grippy Micheline tires and mini-chaaf'd it around wherever I could. here is a very short video with proof, hope you are proud of me ruclips.net/video/ZElClgaXFfw/видео.html
Please keep going, especially with videos like you showed us from the Toro adventure tours. I know in comparison to the amount of viewers the loads of work are maybe not worth it... but maybe it is because the most people subscribed to your channel for the RAW videos and the right people are just missing. I also follow another youtube channel (Ausfahrt.tv) that does car reviews and once they also showed several videos of a trip that lasted some weeks and they nearly got no views, even though they showed some really good content.
Just one single question. I think that the original MSX it's great and I don't understand this marketing movement with the monkey in europe. I have a cb500f from 2016 and my bike hasn't got and inverted fork or a gear indicator for example... more than 4000€ for a 125cc bike sounds crazy to me... the price of this toy bike really worth it?¿? Thanks and I hope your RAWs rise up again!!! Uves from Spain
I like your long videos a lot! A bike I would really enjoy watching you make a RAW with, is the Street Triple RS. I know you have some experience with it, I wouldn't mind you sharing it. 😄 Thank you for your services Schaaf
So I just watched your Vienna video and now this video and its nice to see you have fun making these videos. 2 days ago I put down my deposit at my local Honda dealership and ordered a red Honda Monkey with abs brakes but it won't be in until January so I'll continue watching videos. Thanks for making them.
@@officebear4637 why where you hating that much on moto madness videos? I hate some of the clips in it too but you did too on people that where actually pretty nice.
The mighty Schaaf on a Honda Monkey 125...now i'm impressed. i was even more impressed when he gave not One But TWO Thumbs up. I bet that for that tiny bike is like winning the Oscars.
I use to watch your videos a lot to hype myself up for a touge / mountain pass run. 2 years since my motorcycle accident (other guy cut apex and ran into me) I find myself on a monkey hoping it'll keep me out of trouble and just cruise on 2 wheels again. Excellent handling of that ape Schaaf, I'm tempted to go back to that spirited riding but we'll see...
Hello !!! Greetings from London UK. Please, it was impossible to see the speedo due to the sun. Would this little beast cruise along @ 50-55mph ? Kind regards, Alan.
Did I hear the kick stand scraping on a few of the turns? mostly left turns?... looks fun to ride, they're hitting the states this month, I got a deposit on a Super cub, it's an auto clutch but hope as much fun to ride... not sure why they went with the auto clutch on the cub???
@@Schaaf I don't think the Super Cub is going to be as much fun as this one though, the way I'm watching you ride it and throwing it around...it looks like it can out maneuver the Cub any day! also, I think the monkey will probably have alot more after market mods too..I'm having second thoughts...
You should fit some sticky tires (Bridgestone BT601SS) some front springs and basic line rear shocks, and some light engine prep, like racing exhaust, air intake, ECU, camshaft, etc... and you will have the time of your life. Minimoto 4 life.
@@Schaaf thx very cool man! Looking forward to it This video must be the only on youtube where somebody rides the Monkey as hard as possible, the most if the time! Respect!
Guessing you won't be able to fulfill this request anytime soon as you're quite busy, but if you get the time could you please do a video on the cb1000r (the new one)? I know it's not that enticing since you did one on the old model not too long ago. But if you could, that would be awesome!
damit ich schneller einkuppeln kann, die fuhre dabei stabil bleibt und ganz allgemein so schnelle schaltvorgänge nach unten erst möglich werden (ohne Slipper Clutch)
Love your videos! I would really like to make my videos look the same, So could you tell me your gopro settings? Sharpness, ISO, colours, WB Thank you very much! :)
Unfortunately driving without a cat and an approved exhaust system can lead to a lot of trouble in most of the European countries. And cops are not dumb. It's not worth the risk of hefty fines.
Holy crap it's called braking BEFORE the downshift not after ! Sounds like you over-revved it at least once and that's why you were slamming on rear brake
At :39 get in your own lane D*ck. That was absolutely bananas (See what i did there) on how you rode that. Like the KTM 125 the slower bikes are wicked fun to watch. Bet you had a decent grin after that ride. Little thing gets up and goes and does surprisingly well. Too bad they are so expensive. Uphill video for me please and a swingarm camera angle like the Duke.
Theres these special wind blockers you can buy for cameras. Theyre commonly called "dead cats" They work pretty good i wouldnt be surprised if he has one or 2 on there
alright,i live on a highway very similar to this one,bikes come from miles to ride it,today i was outside and i heard something,it sounded like a low flying small plane with a wooden prop,then it got closer,and i thought what is that? a truck went by which was apparently slowing down 3 dudes on these things.i was like WTF was that ? they were getting it.if the truck wasn't in their way I'm sure they would have been going faster then they already were.very interesting to see what all aftermarket parts will be available for these little guys.and oh yea,i will get to hear it every weekend,they came by this evening on a thursday,3 red ones.haha never said how fast they do,now i gotta research dude.
Awesome! 😍 I've really enjoyed watching this little Monkey being ridden like that on a mountain road... Most of the poor Monkeys will spend their lifetime in the city like scooters. This one enjoyed to be ridden at least once like a true motorcycle. Schaaf, you're a revolutionary, you're the Che Guevara of the Monkeys! 😉 #FreeTheMonkeys
Süßes kleines Ding und (für mich unerwartet) echt flott! Würde ich gerne mal im Rennen gegen meine 35 Jahre alte Vespa sehen :-D Tolles Video, wie immer ;)
Ahahah imagine just driving and seeing a huge dude on a miniature bike almost dragging knee in the twisties ahahahah
:D
On my way to work I often meet a BIG guy riding a Honda Grom...the way he looks is priceless
You... Why.... Arghhh... Now I can't unimagine Schaaf on the poor thing.. Eywww :)
@Alfred Binet ahahahaha

Next time you should do a honda grom how fast.
Well, that looked REALLY fast 😂 I hope you enjoy doing these clips as much as I love watching them
sure ;)
Them: "You need a liter bike to scrape pegs"
Schaaf: "Hold my beer"
I scraped my pegs on a Duke 125 doing my License :D
Just found you channel this is dope. By far the best camera footage and audio ive seen on youtube.👍
thanks a lot and welcome to the club!
I recommend the triumph daytona video of him. Probably my favorite one
it looks quite fast for a 125cc engine..
Well its a lightweight Motorcucle
[Xdd] KahviP but it has a horizontal motor
TorQue WreNcH
You know 125cc full size bike can go up to 200km/h right
Yeah,you all true folks..its lighweight,small,good engine with a good rider,thats why it fast
2 smokers yeah
These bikes look like so much silly fun! Good one, Schaaf! I love your short or long videos. I really enjoyed the Toro adventure videos too
thanks man
One of the first motorbike riding videos I felt like I was riding it, good job with everything.
thanks!
This is absolutely fantastic, now I want one
:D
No talking....That was great. Looks so fun and sounds great too. I didn't even notice a rattling sound.
thanks
Yes, I WOULD VERY MUCH LIKE the video of riding uphill... And perhaps so one can compare it with Duke 125.. It was the same road, I reckon?
it was indeed! Although I think comparison to the "big" 125cc bikes don't make much sense :)
So I just watched your Vienna video and now this video and its nice to see you have fun making these videos. 2 days ago I put down my deposit at my local Honda dealership and ordered a red Honda Monkey with abs brakes but it won't be in until January so I'll continue watching videos. Thanks for making them.
awesome!! Congrats!!
I'm guessing this wasn't done on the stock tires? They're pretty much more plastic than rubber ahah.
it was. I wasn't riding big lean angles actually
Schaaf but you scraped the pegs though
Schaaf that's crazy that you didn't slip out with that peg scrape with stock tires
@@officebear4637 why where you hating that much on moto madness videos? I hate some of the clips in it too but you did too on people that where actually pretty nice.
+Shrek's swamp lol what the fuck are you on about? I never watch that shit.

Excellent handling of that ape Schaaf, I'm tempted to go back to that spirited riding but we'll see...
Go back and see what it feels like :)
This is... confusingly glorious
ahahaha
Bild Quali ist der knaller. Hast du den Bildstabi an oder aus? Sonst: Coole Aufnahmen!
nein, der war aus! Danke!
Why do I want this bike so much?
I've had a VFR800, ST1300, Vmax 1200, now a 2020 SV650.
But this Monkey just seems so much fun 😊
It doesn't just seem fun ;)
Did you scrape your foot peg at 1:25?
yes
So how fast were you going?
susa garrett , that's exactly what I was wondering
100kph
Hello !!! Greetings from London UK. Please, it was impossible to see the speedo due to the sun. Would this little beast cruise along @ 50-55mph ? Kind regards, Alan.
it easily reaches 100kph
The quality of this video is unseen.
thanks
Did I hear the kick stand scraping on a few of the turns? mostly left turns?... looks fun to ride, they're hitting the states this month, I got a deposit on a Super cub, it's an auto clutch but hope as much fun to ride... not sure why they went with the auto clutch on the cub???
footpegs were scraping! Because as far as I know the Cub's been using an auto clutch for a very long time. Glad they'll install one!
@@Schaaf I don't think the Super Cub is going to be as much fun as this one though, the way I'm watching you ride it and throwing it around...it looks like it can out maneuver the Cub any day! also, I think the monkey will probably have alot more after market mods too..I'm having second thoughts...
So why don't you tell us how much you weigh and how fast the thing went !?
70kg, 105kph
That was great. I rode the original and I had so much with it. Would love to see the uphill ride. Thanks!
thanks for the feedback!!

I borrowed the bike for 1 day
Those small bikes look like a lot of fun!
they are
What's up with the rattle sound? My monkey just started making that sound 2000 miles in
No idea
Can you post this video or the uphill version at normal video speed? I’ve got 2 months before mine comes in!
this is normal speed
@@Schaaf oh. It looks accelerated! Looks like you’re flying. (At 0:40 , that jerk was in your lane. )
@schaaf 2:20 ?? What was that?
Fußraste
YES! THE VIDEO I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR!
:D
Please upload the uphill video as well. ;)
will do!
We want more!! 👍
coming soon-ish!
Awesome video! But I got a dumb question, can it offroad?... I haven't seen a video of anyone riding it in the grass
actually it can! I rode quite a bit of grass and gravel with it!
@@Schaaf Okay cool! Can you maybe make a video on it some time of it riding on the grass?
nope, I only had the bike for a few days in August
@@Schaaf oh okay
Hello, I like your video very much. How do you reduce the wind noise?
What tires are you using? Iam having a hell of a time trying to find Diablos that will fit a 12” rim
tires were stock
Is it monkey 's stock tires are really that bad?
I was happy with them
why this bike is dont here in COlombia or Suramerica :/// I want it
:/
now THIS is the content youtube needs
thanks ;)
Do they still make these kind of bike?
yes
Did you end up posting the up hill video?
Can't remember actually
@@Schaaf still enjoying these bikes?
Yeah, uphill video with thoughts coming up?? Thx
it'll be another RAW for uphill and a separate video with my thoughts! I'm working on it!
@@Schaaf thx very cool man!
Looking forward to it
This video must be the only on youtube where somebody rides the Monkey as hard as possible, the most if the time!
Respect!
I live about 2 miles up an 8% grade. Curious if you’ve been up a hill anything like this? Does it struggle?
it doesn't struggle IMO
sounds good, but whats with the "burning rubber" on turns?
Explained it in the video. I was just using the rear brake for fun
Schaaf i saw that, but i meant was that how it sounds normally or were "exaggerating" it?
I was locking the rear and what you can hear is the tire screeching
I would love to have one, used to ride Z50 back in my youth. It surely would be funny to see me driving one since im 2m tall :D
haha for sure
Not sure what I was supposed to get out of that description, but okay.
very simple. Info about the camera gear I'm using. So I don't have to answer the same questions all over again.
Sheep (schaf) on a monkey, is this a Grimm tale? (Sorry for the bad joke) Great ride!
ahaha that was a great joke actually :;D
Do you have to press the clutch while braking?
no
Guessing you won't be able to fulfill this request anytime soon as you're quite busy, but if you get the time could you please do a video on the cb1000r (the new one)? I know it's not that enticing since you did one on the old model not too long ago. But if you could, that would be awesome!
no chance, sorry
:( hmmm. Which one will you be doing next? I guess I'll just develop an interest for that bike then:)
wieso schaltest du immer mit zwischengas runter?? Hat das einen bestimmten sinn und wie genau geht das?
damit ich schneller einkuppeln kann, die fuhre dabei stabil bleibt und ganz allgemein so schnelle schaltvorgänge nach unten erst möglich werden (ohne Slipper Clutch)
it is perfect, a bike with that size would be a danger with more power, and it sounds so nice , I'm getting a yellow one
Good choice
@@Schaaf still waiting for mine , it just looks better and better , i hope it arrives next week
Are the stock tires better than the Groms stock?
don't know
This bike is small and not that fast but whenever It goes pass 80-100 it always felt like it's fast
True!
Is the speedometer set on mph or kph?
kph
So whats the top speed i can't see the speedometer
I saw 100 km/h or 62 mph if you prefer
it easily gets up to 100kph. Managed to reach 108kph at one point
How does that compare to the Honda 125 Grom
basically the same
Seems to be the perfect bike for you, I guess you had lots of fun
for sure!
Grande Schaaf !!!!!
grazie Diego!
Incredible riding man!
thanks Dillan
I love this bike so much. I want either one of these, or a suzuki vanvan 200. They both sound so good. Love the video! Subscribing.
thanks man!!
Love your videos! I would really like to make my videos look the same, So could you tell me your gopro settings? Sharpness, ISO, colours, WB
Thank you very much! :)
standard protune settings with ISO locked to 100
Schaaf thanks! :)
Hey Schaaf, wollte mal nachfragen ob die Sticker wasserfest sind. Danke vielmals übrigens dafür ^^.
also ich hab die auf Topcase und Fahrrad oben, da haben sie schon viel regen gesehen. Bisher halten sie noch
Might have to get one of thoose... Im 230lbs ..think it will fit me just fine haha
ahaha for sure!
Max user weight on a honda monkey 2018. 231lbs you be fine
Yes! Please do the uphill video
working on it!
Try the Yoshimura RS3 Exhaust, its sounds incredible!!
Unfortunately driving without a cat and an approved exhaust system can lead to a lot of trouble in most of the European countries. And cops are not dumb. It's not worth the risk of hefty fines.
May I ask where do you put your ZoomH1?
backpack
The camera makes you look like you're going really fast specially since the dash is on kph
true
mph or kmh when what top speed
Holy crap it's called braking BEFORE the downshift not after ! Sounds like you over-revved it at least once and that's why you were slamming on rear brake
actually you're supposed to be braking while downshifting
its not about the bike, its about the rider!
Is gearing the same as the grom?
I wouldn't know, sorry
Does it have 4 gears or how many?
4
is this going to be your next bike ?
would be a decent upgrade from the CB500 ahahaha
i think so too ! :D
Damn stock exhaust is pretty loud on this bike
Actually it is incredibly silent
2:38 video was spelled wrong ;)
it was not :) It's an inside joke ;)
die frage ist jetzt, wie komfortabel man mit knapp über 1,80cm damit unterwegs ist? schon öfter überlegt mir eine für die stadt zuzulegen...
MEGA komfortabel! Bin 184cm groß.
Sehr nice, danke, gut zu wissen ^^
Shiit, its looks actually pretty good and it has good sound! :D I though it is bad but it seems like its not
it sure is great
Your videos are a must!
thanks Stefano
At :39 get in your own lane D*ck. That was absolutely bananas (See what i did there) on how you rode that. Like the KTM 125 the slower bikes are wicked fun to watch. Bet you had a decent grin after that ride. Little thing gets up and goes and does surprisingly well. Too bad they are so expensive.

I was grinning until I went to bed that night actually ;)
Warum kommt mir die 125 so schnell vor lul
ND Filter plus Schwerkraft
#schaaf how did you mamage to reduce the wind sound at your action camera?
Theres these special wind blockers you can buy for cameras. Theyre commonly called "dead cats"
They work pretty good i wouldnt be surprised if he has one or 2 on there
Yas! Perfect bike, perfect video. Thank you Schaaf!
thank YOU!
Stock?
Will you try the 2018 cb 1000r ?
did multiple times but unfortunately never got a chance to film it
yes, I would like to see uphill
thanks for the feedback!
is the dashboard in mph or kmh?
kph
alright,i live on a highway very similar to this one,bikes come from miles to ride it,today i was outside and i heard something,it sounded like a low flying small plane with a wooden prop,then it got closer,and i thought what is that? a truck went by which was apparently slowing down 3 dudes on these things.i was like WTF was that ? they were getting it.if the truck wasn't in their way I'm sure they would have been going faster then they already were.very interesting to see what all aftermarket parts will be available for these little guys.and oh yea,i will get to hear it every weekend,they came by this evening on a thursday,3 red ones.haha never said how fast they do,now i gotta research dude.
100kph
I don't think you should be downshifting like that. It's hard on the engine.
it is not
@@Schaaf OK. Keep downshifting.
@@truhunk1 not if it's done right
Awesome! 😍 I've really enjoyed watching this little Monkey being ridden like that on a mountain road... Most of the poor Monkeys will spend their lifetime in the city like scooters. This one enjoyed to be ridden at least once like a true motorcycle. Schaaf, you're a revolutionary, you're the Che Guevara of the Monkeys! 😉 #FreeTheMonkeys
ahahahaha :D It sure is too capable to spend its whole life in the city!
Love this bike! 😍😍😍
me too!
Would much prefer 60fps than 4k30
I'd do that but it's not an available option with SuperView
nice raw video as allways ;)
thanks a lot!
God that engine sound is crazy
:D
You are awsome Man! :D That small bike, and that fast ride! ;)
thanks man
is it really necessary?
most fun things are the opposite of necessary!
Seems like you ha a lot of fun!
IAM sur that you were faster some other driver on more powerful motocycle.
I had!
My SUZUKI access 125 also do 110 kmph on speedometer but take time's
:)
Süßes kleines Ding und (für mich unerwartet) echt flott! Würde ich gerne mal im Rennen gegen meine 35 Jahre alte Vespa sehen :-D
Tolles Video, wie immer ;)
wär bestimmt spannend :D Danke, Tom!
I need to test ride one of these
yes!
Lol, great fun. It is so true that going "fast" on a slow bike is way more fun than trying to go fast with a fast one :)
I want one of these :)
definitely!
