Our Honda Monkey Review

[@ohwell2790]

I am 80 and bought a Monkey June of 2023. So far have installed the T-Rex center stand and windshield and the Man in the box $120 rear shocks and the mirror extenders too, then the Chimera intake which is kind of loud on acceleration but makes adjusting the intake valve much easier. This little wonder is just right for me now after ridding heavy cruisers for 64 years. This is my last purchase of a bike and will keep it to the end. Thanks for posting, good video.

[@anthonyridesphilly]

That’s amazing to hear, I hope to be riding still at 80! Thanks for sharing. Happy riding!

[@davids2885]

I love my ‘21 Monkey and use it daily as my means of getting to and from work. It’s a great way to start the day. And as you said, can’t beat the rate of return on a gallon of gas right now.

[@el_italo_rd9955]

Yours has abs?i might buy a 2022 non abs and try to put it on later

[@Monotaurino]

Absolutely thorough video! Thank you!

[@anthonyridesphilly]

You’re welcome, glad you enjoyed it!

[@andyballard5311]

I have a monkey. I wouldn't trade it for anything. I only ride on the weekends usually.

[@anthonyridesphilly]

It’s a great lil bike!

[@stephenowens5375]

Haven't rode a bike in over 30 years but I love Honda 125 mini bikes, so I hope to take the plunge later this year. Hardest decision is which bike, Grom, Dax and Monkey all awesome commuter bikes. Great video matey 👍

[@anthonyridesphilly]

If you want to do wheelies…grom! If you want a big cushy seat…monkey! That’s my take, happy riding hope you enjoy your next bike.

[@SgtBrewdawg]

Cool video. Thanks for sharing!!! 😎 I am so tempted to buy one.

[@anthonyridesphilly]

I would highly suggest it! If you are in the Philly area or ever plan to be you can rent ours. We have it listed on ridershare and twisted road. Just saying, take it for a spin.

[@SgtBrewdawg]

@@anthonyridesphilly Well thank you very much on that offer. Also I really enjoyed seeing the parts of Philly you filmed.

[@williamheinsinger7390]

Just do it 😁👍

[@markedmonds6765]

looks like great fun!

[@Splenda257]

Best urbanist video I've seen.

[@tomzeugin7229]

I have a 2021 blue... just love it!

[@shannondoherty4803]

I wanted the blue 😕 I got the red one but I love it anyway

[@davids2885]

Blue ones are the fastest!

[@TandemAdventures]

Hey, I have a 2019 and love it! Yellow! Can you tell me about your phone mount?

[@anthonyridesphilly]

I have the quad lock phone mount on the handlebars and it pairs with a quad lock case for you phone. The case is sleek, I like the feel in my hand when it’s not on the bike. And it is very secure. I have not had any problems with the system. It’s a bit expensive for both pieces but I find that it’s worth the money.

[@wileecoyote5749]

Yeah not able to leave anywhere in The Bronx unattended.

[@technokitten2038]

I can see you keep it outside your apartament without a cover - how does it handle in rust departament?

[@anthonyridesphilly]

I actually do cover it but I had removed the cover before starting this video. No rust issues yet, I use the Dowco guardian cover for all of my bikes. The make a monkey sized version

[@qualifierone8899]

Where did you buy the rack. Will it work for you as it is pretty small?

[@anthonyridesphilly]

I bought the bike used and it came with it. I believe it’s a Honda genuine accessory. I’ve got to 12 packs strapped to that rack with a bungee net so I would say it’s useful👍👍

[@johntheaccountant5594]

You would not leave your Honda Monkey outside like that in London and a lot of places in the UK; it would be stolen in minutes.

[@anthonyridesphilly]

It’s the scary part about having bikes in the urban environment. It’s a shame we have to worry about theft in a regular basis.

[@The_RC_Guru]

Same problem here in the USA too. I’d love to get groceries on it but too many thieves and vandals.

[@conniewaite1371]

Chain it to a post​@@The_RC_Guru

[@BlackNAVYAmericanVET]

Hopefully in 2024 gas will return to normal . If we vote , DRILL BABY DRILL .

[@1999zrx1100]

I’m well over a 100 mpg on my 2024. I put super gas in mine though. Great machines. 👍

[@anthonyridesphilly]

It’s a good one! Mine got stolen last year, rip monkey:( but I used the insurance money to try another bike. I will always have fond memories of the lil monkey tho! Happy riding, stay safe out there

[@el_italo_rd9955]

I want to buy the 2022...but if a 2021 with ABS and some mods shows up i will buy it...anyone in the NJ PA or any state close to NJ?

[@neftalilomeli847]

Beautiful place

[@satisfaction61]

burada çok pahalı , o yüzden buna benzer brixton crossfire xs alacağım , yarı fiyatına ..

[@saidadam1431]

J'adore Honda

[@BlackNAVYAmericanVET]

Put an Apple tag on your bike bro ! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@conniewaite1371]

Apple tags work on criminal phones too

[@saidadam1431]

[@slobodanmilic3171]

Nice

[@wileecoyote5749]

2 miles to work? You should be walking. I had to walk 10 miles to school in the snow no shoes.

[@ka509]

Love the bike. Is that a poor microphone or did your gf convince you to take hormone blockers?

[@anthonyridesphilly]

This was the video that convinced me to run a mic inside of my helmet. I was pulling Audio straight from the GoPro on this ride. I literally was riding down the street projecting my voice so that the camera would pick it up lol

[@worldfactography9250]

I wish honda will launch monkey in India too. my english is not good.

[@anthonyridesphilly]

I understand your English perfect, it’s a great little city bike! Sorry you don’t get them in India that’s a shame.

[@worldfactography9250]

@@anthonyridesphilly yea, despite honda is biggest in India in whole world and also no. 1 seller of 2 wheeler in India.

[@jettschenker]

You shouldTake that thing down to the Kensington area and show us all the zombie drug addicts living out on the sidewalks

[@anthonyridesphilly]

I’m not really into that kind of video creation. Philly has some rough areas but I’ll leave that to other KZbinrs to cover. That being said it’s pretty weird up there lol

[@qualifierone8899]

Don’t tell me you own a Ridgeline as well

[@anthonyridesphilly]

No way, they ugly! But I don’t own any car, only bikes😎

[@momosandoval1617]

[@anthonyridesphilly]

Yo se, lo siento! no tengo microfone para el video. Pero mi nuevo videos tengo audio.
