Honda Monkey


Recommended Posts

I like the bike, well done and brings back memories but at 4K I think that's absurd.  I was in the market for a Grom until I saw the Benelli TNT135 in South America.  Fortunately SSR imported them to the states a few months ago and I picked on up.  Now the Monkey is 4K, the Grom 3,300 but the Benelli was only 2500.  It has a 4 valve head, oil cooler, actual oil filter, 5 speed gearbox and great styling.  So all of that and the price made it nothing to think about.

SSR is a Chinese bike, they are the importer for the Benelli and very well may make it.  So far I love this little thing.

I was interested in an exhaust for shits and giggles but sadly I feel Yoshimura missed it
