Hi, Thanks for the comment💪🏻 We just wrapped it with some vinyl wrap off eBay… Worked well for 12months and then we upgraded to a proper carbon one.

@@SmallboreAndMore thanks for the reply mate, I’m thinking of having a go at wrapping mine for now so I’ll give that a try. I couldn’t find a carbon mud guard available in the uk, only tyga racing in Thailand, but will keep my eye out for one. Thanks👍

Hello there!!!

@@SmallboreAndMore

Thanks so much💪🏻

It’s only a matter of time isn’t!🤣

@@SmallboreAndMore well it’s the natural progression ha ha keep up the content !!

I guess only time will tell… 🤞🏻🤞🏻

There’s a good suggestion!!! We could time how long the wheels spin freely vs OEM ones! Do you have a link to any?

@@SmallboreAndMore If you can't see the links (YT doesn't like them, or if you have links disabled in your comment settings) MNNTHBX and DROWSPORTS does them. :)

@@SmallboreAndMore I did try posting some links earlier, must not have worked. I think MNNTHBX and DROWSPORTS sell them, mate.

@@SmallboreAndMore My last two replies have vanished! 😭😭

Thanks so much… we do try hard 🤣🤣

That's a good shout, although it uses the original exhaust holes. So I'd guess if the scrambler exhaust uses the stock holes, then no. But it's worth looking at!! Thanks for the comment, btw 😊

Good info! And yes, sounds well💪🏻

Well keep an eye out for that! Thanks

The bike belongs to a good friend of ours and is featured on the TT footage on the channel, we were riding some dumpy roads, and he never said they bottomed out, he only had good things to say 😊

@@simonchandler448 thanks, I think I will have a bash at those 👍🏻

Goes well… especially the exhaust!

Thank you so much👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks so much 💪🏻💪🏻

Have a look at the videos of us at the Isle of Man, that’s the bike running with the can chain and flywheel fitted💪🏻

You can spend hours deciding on what la going to be on your bike when you get it! Enjoy! And go do that licence test 💪🏻💪🏻

Maybe we ought to think of one of those daily reward for visiting like the one on a game apps lol.

@@WebikeJapanChannel Right!? It seems like every other day I go on there and do a hypothetical shopping list. 🤓

Really? That sounds like a 2019 or 2020 with a different tank? What colour is your frame?

@@SmallboreAndMore the vin sticker on the frame says 3/21. Frame is blue, and tank is blue and white. Front forks are also blue. I set mine up more for riding dirt trails in the woods. Shinko mobbers, 14th front sprocket, a 37..I think in the rear. DNA stage one intake, Yoshi full race exhaust, MNNTHBX Rizoma tail light and front blinkers, same bars as yours…Pro tapers…with double take mirrors, and ASV clutch and brake levers. Adjustable rear suspension. With a DHM icu flash for all the mods from MANNTHBX. It does about 62mph on a flat paved road. Happy with it…but now I want more power‼️ Great channel by the way!

Honda service manual…. They are 6mm fasteners

It’s 1.88 BHP gain! Not Half a horse power?? I know the absolute figure feels small, but you’ve gotta remember the amount they start out with is tiny… so it’s actually quite a big gain, 8.3bhp to 10.18bhp is over 20%💪🏻 And the most important thing is you can REALLY feel it out on the road😎

Yeah, you’re probably right. It’s overkill, there’s no need because it’s like 10” long, straight through, there’s no way any gases are going to squeeze through the joint when they can so get get out of the open unrestricted can. But… that’s what the instructions say, so we followed them👌🏻

It’s a 6 row from Steady Garage👍🏻

Are you able to run the Honda monkey oil cooler bracket with dna dual intake or need to make custom bracket?

@@luiscarmona4096 we needed to make a custom bracket. We are looking to make these to order if there is a demand.👌🏻

@@SmallboreAndMore I would be intrested in buying one if your willing to make one

Thanks so much! Really appreciate it💪🏻

No, I’m afraid that was done by an Ohlins dealer… however we do have plans to change the lower fork bottoms soon which we’ll be doing ourselves… so stay tuned because we’ll be taking them apart 💪🏻

That’s an interesting one!!! We replaced the OEM with a Denali Sound Bomb Split and hid it behind the right hand side panel that’s installed when we change the exhaust routing. It’s REALLY loud!🤣

@@SmallboreAndMore ah k.. I just found kitaco do a mount that just flips the horn downwards but it's still in the way/ugly. The only other one is an extension lead + mount from kijima it mounts to engine cover on the left. Just ordered one 👍🏼

@@freefly1 I agree… I don’t like seeing the horn, but some people love the look… it’s very “Monkey” Before we added the sound bomb, we relocated it to the lhs of the bike just in front of the side panel, and used some basic 2 core cable to extend it. It was a neat job, and cost next to nothing to do. It was only because we gained a big space behind the new panel that we decided to try the sound bomb… but it’s great! So loud and makes people laugh when they hear it from such a small bike

I think the accelerated wear comes when you start to modify the engine and put the components under more stress…. But I agree, there was no evidence of wear on ours, but with so few miles, that’s to be expected. I also think the previous models were more prone because they had the option of an aftermarket mechanical tensioner, where you could put extra force on the tensioner arm… like I say in the video, I’d call the design of the 2021+ bikes more of a dampener than a tensioner💪🏻 Keep us informed with what you do and find out💪🏻

Hi, thanks for your nice comment! Around a 1000km on the OEM. We’ve done about 300miles or about 480 km since fitting them, which was a trip to the Isle of Man for the TT so they got a good run out and definitely put through their paces! All good so far💪🏻

Cheers Graeme… they are ProTaper Seven Eighths Honda Mini Bend👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

Thanks for your comment… we love it when our viewers connect and reach out… Plus we are not perfect and welcome new learning. As far as the stem nut, the 88Nm is the OEM figure for the steel assembly. The SMR is a fine alloy thread and wouldn’t take 88Nm. The spec from SMR is 25-30Nm.👌🏻 We also need to remember that this nut doesn’t take a lot of strain as the top and bottom yoke clamped against the forks do the job of holding everything in place. Thanks again for your comment…

@@SmallboreAndMoreHmmm I probably missed that part in the SMR instructions. I torqued mine to 88 Nm 😂

@@rickst.3330glad you got away with it💪🏻💪🏻

Hi Bruno, thanks for your comments…. The advice from Dynojet (check out our other vids for the tuning) is that it would be pretty dangerous to upgrade to the 145kit without adding extra fuel. It would just be too lean, and that will cause problems with too much heat, and lead to component failure. As far as the DNA stage 3… it’s a lovely thing, is it worth the money? It’s hard to justify the price tag on performance alone, because there’s for example the Takegawa intake that’s about 10% of the price and will be just as free flowing. I’d say it’s all about the looks / symmetry 💪🏻 but it’s personal choice. In my opinion, they are expensive for what they are! Enjoy tuning…💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

​@@SmallboreAndMoreOk I suspected it but you confirm it. I will wait for the Kitaco reprogrammer. For the DNA Filter... I love the symmetry!!! Is it worth the cost just for the look!? Maybe! 🤑 it's nice of you to have answered me, thanks again.

Cheers mate 💪🏻

Yeah, the fuel economy is shot now!! Get about 90miles from a tank

Thank you for the comment💪🏻

I’d stick to superbikes🤣💪🏻

@@SmallboreAndMore fair comment 😂 The monkey is great for nipping around town but your comment confirms my thoughts. Many thanks

No, but that’s something we could do if it helps. If you can’t find anything else on line, give us a shout

@@SmallboreAndMore please do a video thanks

Hi, if you have a look at our other videos, all the information you need is there…. Installation, dyno runs, and the details of where to buy! Hope that’s ok

@@SmallboreAndMore ok thx you !

No, there’s zero space for storing anything and even if there was, it would mean bolting and unbolting all the time

@@SmallboreAndMore Interesting! Thanks for the reply. I think I’ll leave the stock cover on even though I think it’s ugly and what you’ve put on is much more attractive!

I think it’s down to taste… on my personal bike, I have the OEM covers, as I like the Monkey character they give. (Plus I have a Denali sound bomb horn behind one and the DynoJet quick shifter brain behind the other!) but the panels are nice… all depends what you’re after.

14t 37t

I ask this because the fifth gear on my Thai Monkey 125 cannot exceed 7000 RPM, so my top speed is 121KM/9000RPM in the fourth gear, so I can’t understand why you can reach 8500RPM in the fifth gear. , I also use KITACO 145CC.

My front and rear gears are now 15X36. It seems I should try changing the front gears to 14T.

DynoJet increased the limiter for us👍🏻

Hi guys, regarding gears the 2023 monkey 14- 37 so for more top speed I will need a 34 at the rear which is the equivalent to a 15 front would that be correct?, also what model renthal bars do you have on the blue monkey, Love the video brilliant seeing the actual difference between 125 and 145 can't wait to run my 145 in now🙂

dynojet.co.uk/pv3-16-20.html That’s a link for you 👌🏻

Yes, the ecu is flashed on both and both bikes have identical mods. Yellow bike is 10.18 BHP the blue bike (with the camera) is 12.16 BHP. Plus the blue 145 rider is 2 stone heavier

Tanks. I need to get a PV3 to make it complete.

I know it’s all relative… but I don’t think £270 is bad for the 145kit? You get a piston, barrel and new camshaft for that.💪🏻
