Honda Ape 100

Introducing the 2014 Honda Ape 100, a compact yet robust motorcycle designed for urban commuting and spirited weekend rides. Nestled in the allround category, the Ape 100 has made a name for itself primarily in Japan and select Asian markets, where it embodies the spirit of versatility and fun. With its lightweight frame and approachable design, this motorcycle appeals to both novice riders and seasoned enthusiasts alike, making it a popular choice for those who crave an agile ride through city streets or winding country roads. At the heart of the Ape 100 lies a spirited 99cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine. Delivering a modest 7 horsepower at 8,000 RPM and 6.6 Nm of torque at 6,500 RPM, this powertrain is designed for nimble responsiveness rather than outright speed. Its air-cooled design and carburettor fuel system ensure that riders enjoy a classic motorcycling experience, complete with the satisfying thrum of a small-displacement engine. The five-speed gearbox paired with a wet, multiplate clutch enables smooth gear changes, making it an ideal companion for navigating urban environments. Whether you’re darting between traffic or cruising along the boulevard, the Ape 100’s lightweight build (weighing in at just 82 kg) enhances its agility, allowing you to maneuver with ease. The 2014 Honda Ape 100 is packed with features that enhance its functionality and rider experience. With a diamond frame that offers stability and confidence on the road, the motorcycle is equipped with telescopic front forks and a swing-arm rear suspension system that work together to absorb bumps and provide a comfortable ride. Drum brakes at both ends ensure reliable stopping power, while the bike's compact dimensions and a seat height of just 715 mm make it accessible for riders of various statures. The 5.5-liter fuel tank provides a decent range for city jaunts, and the kick starter adds a nostalgic touch to the riding experience. Available in stylish silver and grey, the Ape 100 is as visually appealing as it is practical. **
