Honda Monkey confirmed

A retro-inspired remake of the 125cc Honda Grom, the new Monkey carries all the familiar styling cues of the 50cc original, like the thickly-padded seat with ‘Honda’ branding, chrome mudguards, chunky tyres, high-mount exhaust, two-tone paint and Honda’s “Old Wing” tank badge.

While it looks old, the Monkey’s running gear is all new, with the 125cc single and four-speed gearbox lifted from the Grom. Other modern features include USD forks, ABS, LED lighting and LCD instrumentation.

The Monkey will be offered in a choice of four colours, with launch pricing of $5,999 ride away. See your Honda dealer for more details.
