Overview

Introducing the 2019 Honda Monkey, a charming and compact motorcycle that appeals to riders of all ages and experience levels. With its retro-inspired design and playful demeanor, this allround bike captures the spirit of adventure while being incredibly accessible. Priced at an attractive $3,999, the Monkey is not just a motorcycle; it's a statement of fun and nostalgia, perfect for those looking to navigate both city streets and open roads with a unique flair. Its distinctive aesthetics and compact footprint make it an ideal choice for urban commuting, leisure rides, or even as a collector's item for enthusiasts who appreciate its classic appeal. Under the seat of the Monkey lies a spirited 124.9cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that delivers an engaging ride with just the right amount of power. With a compression ratio of 9.3:1 and a lightweight design, this engine offers a delightful blend of performance and efficiency. The air-cooled setup keeps the engine running smoothly, while the PGM-FI fuel injection ensures responsive throttle control and efficient fuel usage. With a 4-speed gearbox and a chain final drive, the Monkey is geared for both spirited rides and relaxed cruising, allowing riders to enjoy the road ahead. Its nimble handling and modest weight of just 105 kg (231.5 pounds) make it particularly easy to maneuver, whether navigating tight corners or darting through traffic. The 2019 Honda Monkey is packed with features designed to enhance the riding experience. Its telescopic front fork and swingarm rear suspension provide a comfortable ride, absorbing bumps and irregularities in the road. The bike comes equipped with reliable single disc brakes at both the front (220 mm) and rear (190 mm), ensuring responsive stopping power to match its lively performance. Riders can customize their Monkey with striking color options like Banana Yellow and Pearl Nebula Red, making sure they stand out wherever they go. Additionally, the bike is backed by a one-year unlimited-mileage limited warranty, underscoring Honda's commitment to quality and reliability. **

Pros

  • Retro Charm: Its iconic design and vibrant color options make it a head-turner, appealing to both nostalgia and modern aesthetics.
  • Lightweight and Nimble: Weighing just 231.5 pounds, the Monkey is easy to handle, especially for new riders or those navigating urban environments.
  • Fun Riding Experience: The responsive engine and engaging transmission deliver a delightful ride, whether commuting or exploring back roads.

Cons

  • Limited Power: While fun, the 124.9cc engine may not satisfy those seeking a high-performance motorcycle for longer highway rides.
