  • My favourite 125cc motorcycle!! The Honda Monkey bike 😍 I’ve been waiting so long to have a go on one of these bikes. A new one is quite expensive which make this one owner bike with 20 miles on the clock an absolute bargain. A big saving on a new one. Big thanks to ‪@in2moto480‬ and ‪@MotoGBofficial‬ if you’re interested in this bike then follow this link www.in2moto.co...

      I worked my way up the bike ladder to a CBR1000F supersport tourer, then to a supersport zx9r then decided to downsize, and thought what the heck, I love Monkey's, sold zx9r and bought a new monkey, ticked bucket list goals of new vehicle ownership and owner of yellow (or white would have sufficed) vehicle, I have as much fun on monkey as I did going fast on Ninja 💁‍♂️ fun is in the feel of the beholder!..

    They are a really good-looking little bike. Much cheaper here in Thailand. I did a short test ride in Chiang Rai, but it was too slow off the mark compared to my Yamaha Aerox 155 scooter, so I didn't buy it. If it had a 150cc engine and 14'' wheels, I'd get one. I don't like that seat.
