The Most Fun You Can Have (Brand New) for $1,807 MSRP

[@Motoccino]

The Honda Activa is almost like the default national scooter of India. Used by all age groups - from commuting to mom's ferrying kids to lug groceries and farm produce in the villages, the Activa is bullet proof reliable. Oh, and much love from Bangalore, India.

[@onesadtech]

This thing looks like a load of fun, and actually pretty practical for smaller trips to the store with that little storage space! That 110mpg may come in handy with the way gas prices are going right now. 😂

[@VodkaStudios777]

I think I am getting it for that reason lol, but im pretty big, not sure if there is a bigger bike with really good mpg like this is there?

[@onesadtech]

@@VodkaStudios777 honestly if you are comparing bikes to cars or bigger you're gonna see way better MPG with most bikes versus cars. You're just carrying around less metal with ya. These little Navi's have a decent weight capacity and would be fine around town for most folks, but if you wanna reach highway speeds easily no matter the rider weight (within reason) I would look into anything in the 300-600cc range. You should still get good MPG there without sacrificing much speed/acceleration. Hope this helps, it's a bit of a broad subject with a lot of variables. If you want a couple new models to look at in that range I would check out the MT03 from Yamaha or maybe a Honda CB300 or CB500. ☺️

[@michaelcandela6775]

Amanda. I am super happy Honda reached out to you to perform a demo and provide you with an opportunity to give your opinion. I would much prefer comments from you rather than traditional advertising. You are down to earth, humble and respectful. Keep up the great work.

[@BassOutcast]

I love how Honda is starting to offer automatic motorcycles across the range. We have the NC700/750, Africa Twin, Rebel 1100 and now this little guy, the Navi. Would be interesting to see them making other mid-size bikes (250-600cc). Anything to get more people riding and enjoying life on two wheels!

[@domenik8339]

As much as I love the visceral control (and fun!) a manual transmission gives you, most people just don't want that, just enthusiasts. If America is going to have more motorcyclists, then the motorcyclists have to be automatic.

[@donniemartin3544]

I'm glad Honda recognized you're an important influencer and wanted you to check out the Navi. I started riding when Nixon was president on a Honda S 90, so I'm an old geezer. My first new bike was a 1970 Honda Trail 70. I have a GL1800 Goldwing, a KTM 690 Enduro and have owned lots of bikes. I bought a Grom a year ago to ride 5 miles back and forth to work just for fun. I watched the KiwiGrom folks ride the TAT and I had to have one. At 6 feet tall and 260 pounds I get a few laughs but I tell them I can get back and forth to work for less than a dollar a week and they shut up pretty quick. The Grom is great fun around town and secondary roads here in Arkansas but it isn't so great on gravel or singletracks. The suspension is short and it bottoms out too easily. The Navi, like the Grom looks like a great little bike for its intended purpose. It would beat you to death off-road. I'd bet the Navi would be perfect for the student who needs cheap transportation on campus and around town. It's a Honda so you can bet it is reliable and well engineered. Thanks for the review!

[@genso3065]

Thanks for showcasing the brown one. I really wanted that lime green one, but I see too many people are getting that color. That brown one is growing on me though.

[@xenatwp]

We bought one of these Navi's to get around our little village and its amazing! Love this little bike! However, be aware of dealer fees. It is true that the MSRP is $1807, but after the deal bends you over, the out the door cost was $3,297 (in Florida).

I’m so absolutely excited to get my Navi. My husband is a total biker and loves riding. I have, for years been the passenger on his bike. He asked me if I would be interested in riding my own bike or trying to ride. I have been steadfast with a firm no… to scared with a clutch and uncomfortable with riding my own bike. Well he showed me the Navi videos and for the first time I agreed to try something different out. It looks so fun and gonna spread my wings and try riding. He ordered a nut brown Navi for me that is expected to be delivered February or March this year 2022 at our local dealership. I will do some videos demonstrating a completely new rider for others that are frady cats like me. I think the automatic sold me. Wish me luck, I’ve never wanted to ride but this little bike and your video gave me confidence. Thanks girlfriend!

Honda Marketing made a good decision inviting you for the launch of the Navi. Great video.

[@sheraleeronan2326]

When you have kids all who want to ride bikes, the Navi is a great entry point to get them confidence on the road. Less stress for mom and dad, when they have the need for speed. Then you can upgrade to the manual and higher CC for them if they have the maturity to do so.

[@enricosace]

These look great. However, I don’t think any dealers near me in central Florida will sell these for sticker price without a markup. I was told at a local Honda dealer and even a Kimco shop that every new bike had an add on sticker. The Honda dealer wouldn’t even tell me what that additional amount was without speaking to a manager. They said it varies depending on the model. The $1800 Kimco I looked at had a $600 dealer fee attached. That represents a 45% markup over retail. I politely laughed and wished them a good day on the way out the door.

[@HeinousinAppearance]

I think dealers are gonna kill this bike. After markup they are approaching unmolested used Grom price.

[@johnpagejr.7628]

You and Jess have definitely got me thinking about this little bike. I have thought about buying a golf cart to get around town but this thing is cheaper than a used golf cart that I would have to put lights on and mirrors to make street legal. Great review Amanda!

[@thatoneguymoto]

I love the idea of this motorcycle and having it as a second or third bike to poke around town, and as something I can coax my wife and daughters to ride on ;) The Steady Garage custom one they had on display at IMS was definitely an "I WANT THAT" moment for me, and the low price would make this a fun project to make a bike my own without breaking the bank. Thanks for sharing, and again, it was wonderful to see you!

[@MeAndMyRoyalEnfield]

End Screen Crew, Back when I had a J.O.B. I saw a video, The Road Is Life - Honda Ruckus. That was when I started falling in love with the idea of disappearing on America's back roads on something slow, off the freeways. The price point is amazing for an entry bike. The Ruckus is more. To shift or not to shift, that was question. It depends on the person, on the confidence level. One girl got her license on a 250 Suzuki. After months of riding everyday she got a 2007 Harley Sportster. Another started out on an automatic scooter before graduating to a regular motorcycle. It's mostly about confidence, and then the mission, budget, insurance, etc. It would be great if Honda could make a great trade in deal for riders who build their confidence on the Navi and within a certain time period, 6 months or 10 months, could trade in their scooter for their first Honda motorcycle.

[@AridersLifeYT]

I work for Honda Australia, its my personal opinion that these would sell really well here. just ask anyone who wants a small CC scooter like bike.

[@viewericeberg]

I just acquired a grasshopper green 22 Navi with 800 miles on it. My wife has a Can Am Spyder with no clutch. She has kinda been interested in trying two wheels,but a few rides on my Suzuki Van Van left her feeling a bit overwhelmed learning the clutch. Her first ride on the Navi went great. She was totally comfortable and in control. The bike fits her well and she wanted to keep going and going. She also had a feeling of accomplishment because she was out on the road on two wheels and really enjoying it. I did get to try it out and I would definitely commute on the Navi. Seeing her take to that bike with a smile means Honda is accomplishing their mission. And after owning several bikes in my 30 years of riding,I can say that it appeals to me as well.

[@bamills6771]

Living in Florida- I can speak with authority about “white trash”. Believe me you are far from that term. You are well spoken- know Greek mythology- sci-fi. Are well read. You may of had a down to earth upbringing. But that makes you who you are. And the vibe I get is honest and sincere. This is the 3rd Navi Vito have watched. And the best so far. I would never get one since I’m 6’5”. And don’t think I’d fit.

[@johnpagejr.7628]

BA Mills I completely agree.

[@clifffawcett]

I really like the NAVI. My first bike was a Yamaha Zuma 49cc scooter. It doesn’t have enough power. I bought it because in Ohio you have to have a motorcycle license for anything 50cc. The Navi is 100 cc so probably better… not sure what other states do… the motorcycle license was a barrier… but maybe it’s a good barrier because that is what eventually made me take the MSF course.

[@motorbikemeditations6763]

I started on a 50cc Vespa, my wife had a 50cc Buddy. We have since moved to a PCX 150 and a Forza 300. As a starter motorcycle, the Navi initially looks pretty reasonable, but I think the PVC with its larger wheels and a bit more power would be better. Wins in storage space as well. The Navi is cute, yes, but realistically no more useful than the Vespa 50 was. Price is fantastic though. Just a quick 2 cents

[@s.bridges8461]

Where I live (Southern California) the dealers are advertising the motorcycles as MSRP, then jacking up the price - way up. Went to pick up a Honda Monkey that was being held for me a few weeks ago and had to tell them to keep it because I don't pay for extortion. Expected a $200-300 markup, but $1500+ for a $4199 bike is ridiculous. Hard to believe they won't try to do the same for these. (Yes - they had jacked up the price of a Monkey to $5828!!!)

My first motorcycle was a Honda Mini-Trail 50min 1969. It was an automatic 3 speed toe shift bike. I got my license on it, then shifted to a clutch bike which took some getting used to. In my older age, I prefer operating the clutch lever as it helps my old muscles function. I'm glad you got to try on the Africa Twin.

[@Dirtbag_ADV]

It could totally handle dirt roads. My Grom has pent more time off pavement than on. These little bikes are just a hoot to rip around in the woods. As a bonus, they are so small you can ride them on elk trails. I have had my Grom in place I couldn’t get my xr250.

[@stephaniemusick171]

Great video Amanda. I think the NAVI is a good step for Honda. It’s super approachable size, lower seat height, price wise. I think it’s a definite step up from a scooter. We have a 2021 Honda Super Cub, it’s such a fun bike to ride around town. I have a 2020 Yamaha MT-07 for full on fun and any kind of distance. For me, the Monkey or Grom, especially the 2022 versions would be more appealing than the NAVI. Update, 12/4/2021. My partner and I decided this is the perfect bike for her. We ordered our NAVI in Grasshopper Green today. We will get one of the first two that are coming into our town. It is supposed to ship from Honda on 01/28/2022. We hope to have it home very early in February. We are so excited.

It will get there and it is getting better nearly every year, but it hasn't fully arrived yet.

Hi, don't know how I came across your video, but I loved it! I'm a California girl here, loving the background sights-I swear I've been near that beach area growing up. I'm living in Georgia, now for about 44 years. I also happen to be a Honda girl. I got my first bike (Rebel 250) in 96, second (01 Shadow ACE 750) in 2000. My thoughts are that this would be a great little bike not only for the beginner but also for us older riders who just ride occasionally now, but want a quick jaunt to the store for a couple things and can't resist a joy ride. At 45 to 50 years I used to take the ACE out daily if only for errands. Now (age 63) I grab the car. For long group rides I'm (in so much bodily pain) ready for a trike. I can see me at 70 (if I can still stand) cruising to the store on one of these, my items bungied all over, and then cruising up and down the roads before returning home-what fun.

Heck, it wouldn't be that hard of a conversion, considering e-scooters exist. Tthere's space for a battery pack right there (you'd loose the cubby, but heck, go hot-swappable while you're at it). it would probably have more acceleration, too as carbureted engines have to be starved to meet emissions and it's not got all the power it really could.

AW Thank you Joe! I really appreciate that! Right?! on both counts. (although, keep my secret? I kind of want to ride a Standard now to be able to compare how it handles compared to the Super Sport XD I'm just curious how much extra top heavy weight the extra gas makes)

[@garthhowe297]

The price point makes this attractive for so many uses. Beginning rider could buy one, and six months later probably sell it for only a few hundred dollars less. I like that it looks like a motorcycle, and not a scooter.

[@larrypeplinski593]

I just watched Her Two Wheels take on it and when I saw you there, I knew I'd have to watch yours as well. And like Jess said, you were very color coordinated. It's fun watching KZbinrs congregate.

[@Smallbore2wheels]

Knobbies would definitely allow you to take it to it's limit. Would be pretty cool to see 1:42 Steady garage!

We've been looking forever for the perfect beach bike. Where we live we're just a few minutes from the beach via old dirt roads and this little machine would be excellent for that. Thanks for the introduction.

[@yaitsred]

Loved the joy for the Africa Twin. ;) End screen Question…. I’m biased to another brand which has convinced me on the value of having a small displacement bike in the fold. Doing the errands, running around town on a light bike is a blast! CVT transmission is a bonus in this application. I will stick with my Vespa, I have taken it off road with standard tires and it does the job admirably. I find it an excellent companion to my ST1100. If I didn’t have a Vespa, I would consider the Navi…given the price point it’s a no brainer.

[@RadDadisRad]

I love CVTs for ultra small CC scooters and bikes. Definitely makes them more usable. I was anti CVT a scooter with a CVT and I overrated the hp by almost double because it felt a lot faster than the brochure said it was.

[@jennifermasselli1007]

YOU are crushing it!!!! So informative! I am seriously thinking of buying one now!!!

[@jeffstacklebox]

Nicely done video. Great commentary and review. You did a great job. I’ve been thinking about a small bike and was considering a Ruckus for around town & errands. This one might fit the bill better. Dirt and off road should be fine. Think about what was used on trails 40 years ago. This bike is way ahead of some of those. 😁👍

[@rebellucy5610]

The Ruckus is only 49cc. Get a 125cc Monkey or Grom if you plan on going over 30mph. Also the Ruckus is easy to steal.

[@Trance88]

This will be a great commuter bike as gas prices continue to sky rocket. What's amazing is that its MSRP is nearly $700 cheaper than the 49cc Honda Metropolitan, which I find astonishing. This bike being a 110cc will need a motorcycle endorsement and insurance if I were to ride this in Michigan, which I don't need any of that to run the metro.

[@KrazyKuno]

My spouse has never ridden a scooter or motorcycle and I think this would be great to get them started! I like the price point and the speed would be perfect for getting to and from work. I like that maintenance won't be a problem, and we have a Honda dealership close to us. I think we need to check this one out!

[@marknice2793]

Hi Amanda, following a stroke I sold my 73 CB450 and 78 XL125 and I've bought a grasshopper green navi now I'm feeling better that I'll pick up this week. I'll be using for local trips and my commute to and from work a 40 mile round-trip. I chose the colour for visibility and wanted a scooter but also like the look of the Navi and the feel of a tank between my legs for comfort and stability. Loved your video by the way. I live in Lincoln near Sacramento and work in Auburn. I'll use my SUV in bad weather lol so feel this bike will really suit my needs well.

[@marknice2793]

Amanda, I picked up my Navi...Yea....So much fun to ride, reminded me of the time back in 1977 when I got my first new bike in England where I grew up, a KTM Comet Grand Prix 50cc Sports moped, they also made a 125cc version same bike bigger motor. Back then there you could ride a 50cc at age 16 and larger bike's age 17. It was yellow kinda similar to the Navi grasshopper green. Well my first ride on the Navi took me back through time in my mind to those wonderful times of youth. The KTM could do 55mph on the flat so similar that way to the Navi but had a manual 4 speed gearbox unlike the Navi. But recovering from the stroke the Navi is nice because I don't have to worry about gears. Loving your channel and particularly your motorcycle camping vids, you're inspiring me to take a future motorcycle camping trip on the Navi so started looking for Navi friendly luggage, would love to see you make a video on this subject. You have such a happy inspiring personality, you feel like a friend already.

[@mikah4051]

This has a wow factor. Well designed and priced just right.

[@Bert439]

It is until you see dealers are tacking on all kinds of fees making it cost slight under $3,000

[@HeinousinAppearance]

@@Bert439 Exactly, the bike is dead in water due to dealers. Would I buy one for 2200 bucks out the door? Sure. Would I buy one for used Grom money (3k+)? Absolutely not.

[@HockeyVictory66]

You are riding in one of my favorite areas. Grew up going to the beach there and still ride my CB1100 down there after flying through Ortega. I am impressed that Honda is going after this market. Seems like it would be good for cruising around small towns or mobile home parks.

[@meghandavitt1618]

Great review! I own a crf250L and would consider buying the Navi as a fun intro bike for friends to try and/or as a bike to completely re-style into a fun steampunk or wasteland weekend event bike. That price point makes it very inviting! But what I really want to know...when do we get your Africa Twin review video?!?! 😁

[@rommelfernandes9345]

Awesome vlog - interesting details, regards from India. I have a 2016 Dec - Navi (Orange). Never had an issue - works just fine through traffic and any season, be it rain, summer or winter !

[@pohomojo4763]

Loved at the end there "this is so crazy", thats how we felt the whole weekend I'm glad we werent the only ones nerding out about having fun on 2 wheels. Also, I'm going to have to get one of my own and im definately camping off of it atleast a couple times I want to put a bike rack on one #bikesonbikes.

[@RoadWorrierMoto]

My partner and I just LOVE how you talk, present and edit. 😍😍 You could genuinely convince me to like olives (which I detest) simply by your honesty and conviction. I’d try them if you told me to. 😂

[@AstheMagpieFlies]

AWW! Thank you! That means a lot to me

[@gmcinnis6304]

olives... on pizza are ok.

[@Mexican_Marauder]

Let Honda know that because of your video, I will be buying one at the beginning of Spring. Thanks for the video!!!

[@JoeRed]

I've been riding for 35+ years, I really want a Navi! I'd have to throw some mild knobbies on for a dual-ish sport :)

[@TheLucky1967]

lol I’m a Harley-Davidson guy that was like $1800 bucks. Sign me up for daily quicky errands.

[@garybyrne2605]

I like all the small moto Honda makes, my issue is I am 6 foot 2 inches tall and way about 280 pounds. I may still have to get one of these and modified for my big self.

[@mfnd502]

The price and a trunk make it pretty appealing. Throw a rack and a milk crate on the back and it's a pretty good city bike/grocery getter.

[@miketayse]

Thanks for posting the vid. I've always rode a small bike, nothing over a 400. This looks like fun!

[@AstheMagpieFlies]

Thank you for watching it Mike! :)

[@spawn1086]

Great review! Nice toy, under 2k how can anyone go wrong with this, great for the RV!

[@rebelbatdave5993]

I like it! I was trying to decide on 2 Other Honda's. NOW This!!? DEFINITELY have to visit a dealer soon! Thanks!

[@journeyofjerry3831]

I bought one in March of this year for my wife to learn on first. Last summer I bought her a grom but she was nervous about the shifting. I personally love the Navi. Just fun to putt along on. 😎👍

[@aw8388]

I put 38,000 miles on a Honda Elite 250 back in the late 80's. Commuted to college and work. Wife had the car for the kids, I got the scooter. Loved it. This makes me want another one. Wonder how many miles this little thing could go?

[@nedmorris9794]

Me too. Love my multiple elite scooters finishing w the 250

[@bocabec6744]

Thank you for this great review. I am a fan of smaller bikes. They are just so much fun. The larger scooter from Vespa are beautiful and great on the expressway. I wish ALL bikes would have aloud directional light indicator. My BMW f850 Adventure will automatically shut down after making a turn. It's such an easy safety related item all bikes should have.

[@CrustyBiker]

So I must've watched this 10 months ago as I just saw my previous comment, but I just watched TFL bike channel doing a vid of a first rideout in a group and saw you in it when he was saying he made fun in a previous video about the brown colour but when he saw yours he now thinks it's the best colour, as I did when I first saw it! 👍 and I think he was behind you most of the way..

[@portnuefflyer]

In the middle of back country Idaho, near a primitive (nothing but a couple cleared areas with picnic tables), sits a concrete latrine. In the latrine, is a brass plaque: DONATED TO PEOPLE OF IDAHO FROM HONDA MOTORS INC (or similar wording, it's been a few years), I've had a warm fuzzy feeling about the company ever since.

[@AaronSchwarz42]

Dope throwback design & great price point. I went from super sport 1999 Honda CBR-600 then 2004 Suzuki GSX-R600 traded into a 2013 Honda PCX150, then 2019 Honda Grom new & upgraded to 12 hp then traded in for a 2020 Yamaha MT-03 my current bike. We also kept the 2013 PCX as a classic! Carbureted, kick start backup, it seems like a natural dirt bike alternative with Nobby tires! ^^ to the Automatic & BTW the final drive belt does not last as long at full throttle as I learned on the PCX150 // I wonder if they noticed there was a huge demand for the Motocompo & thought about it when designing this. There is something special about small light motorcycles / agile & fuel efficient & easy to hop on & go / just a better riding experience more often & less heft & less speed & more fun //

[@ivankuljis1780]

Makes me LOVE 2019 my Super Cub everytime l see the Nicest People On a HONDA!
