I got a Honda Monkey Z125!! This is the review of the bike over the first 600 miles and fitting of the Yoshimura RS3 exhaust. If you have any ideas for anything cool I can do to, with or on my Monkey let me know in the comments.

    What a great addition to the garage,especially with that lovely pipe.If a bike puts a smile on your face every time you ride,then that,s all that matters.

    Great video. I absolutely love my Monkey. It is so versatile.

    I have a 24 plate Grom with a Leo Vince exhaust on it and its literally full throttle everywhere and doing 142mpg and £6 to fill the tank 😊👍🏻

    😂Fantastic video, super funny ! Greetings from Denmark, your Honda Mini Bike brother, I ride a Honda Dax ST 125.. it’s hilarious! Your accent is lovely, .. makes me want to have an Ardbeg 10 years right now! Islay
  • Iv got a 4sp monkey and a 5sp Grom !! Both will do 180mpg on a day out on the smaller roads !! The monkey fuel gauge starts to flash but it only takes 4 ltrs to fill up . Still at least 60 miles in the tank !! Grom will go 200 miles with a litre still in the tank . 👍

    Great choice on your next bike, enjoyed the bends dropping down to Fordel and the wee jaunt into Dalkeith. I went a bit crazy last week too, now owner of '23 Heritage Classic, jings! Its all good healing therapy Mikey, enjoy.

    Fantastic little bikes those, and made even better by the addition of the Yoshi. I always thought they were much nicer to ride than the Grom despite being such similar bikes, likely because the monkey has that wide seat and I've got a wide arse!

    Pictures don’t the Monkey justice, always thought the were still small like the 50cc version from the 70’s. Went to my local dealer to look at a Vespa and when I saw the Monkey my jaw dropped. It was love at first sight, the closer I got the better it looked, fit and finish is off the charts. I think Honda has really done a wonderful job on this model. Here in Canada they are sold before they hit the showroom floor. So glad I saw this one before customer took delivery.. I was lucky to find one and take delivery this week. I think the price is reasonable, salesman told me the one he sold last week went to a chap that wasn’t even going to ride it, plans to just display it in his house. Enjoy your bike…🐵🇨🇦

    Ooh, cheeky monkey! Love it mate 👍👌

    Just bought a 2024 Monkey, going to pick it up next week. The Yoshimura full exhaust is the way to go, looks the best and sounds amazing. The Spark arrestor/db killer is a must have, loud is fun but gets old fast on long rides. Going to add DHM cam, DHM tune , Yoshimura RS-3 full exhaust and an intake after a year of ownership. Wakes up the engine just enough and doesn't make it fragile.

    Sounds amazing mate, just got my other half a Monkey bike, her first ever motorcycle from David at Two Wheels, amazing service from him, I'll be talking Nikki into getting that exhaust as she needs to be heard if not seen, especially round Kelso 😉, all the best 👍

    I visited the yoshimura tree this week and got one on its way, the ti look full gp magnum system.😁

    Sometimes you have to ride in inclement weather. Thinking of getting a scooter or minimoto for here in Quebec next year.

    I wish Yoshi’s did grow on trees, it would have saved me £500 twice ! (Monkey and C125). Congratulations Mike, and welcome to the cult 😂! I’ve been riding with the Monkey Revolution since I went to the Isle of Man with them back in April. Cracking lads and great fun on little bikes, just gotta dodge all those silly “Viva’s” 🙄🤦🏻‍♂️😂. You can fit a top box on that rack, a screen will increase top speed, and if you move the handlebars forward you get a much better riding position with your hands a bit higher up and away from your legs. 😉👍 I’m 6ft 2 and 21 stone myself, so no one looks more ridiculous riding one than me. I guess looking like a complete twat is all part of the fun. 😂👍
