ποΈ 2020 Honda Monkey β The Little Beast with Big Personality
Looking for a ride that turns heads and brings back the joy of riding? Meet the 2020 Honda Monkey β not a sport bike, but a sport in itself. This retro-styled mini-moto is equal parts nostalgic charm and urban ninja. With a fuel-injected 125cc engine and a surprisingly comfy suspension setup, the Monkey is perfect for zipping around town or wandering out into the countryside with a grin under your helmet.
β¨ Why You'll Love the Monkey:
125cc air-cooled single-cylinder (it's not fast, but it's feisty!)
4-speed transmission (you will feel like a kid again)
Seat height: 30.6 inches β low enough to dab your foot, tall enough to see over traffic
Curb weight: ~231 lbs β light, flickable, and parking is a joke (in the best way)
Fuel economy: Stupid good β 125+ mpg so you can joyride all weekend
π§ Where to Monkey Around (from Fairfax, VA):
Urban Playground:
Washington, D.C. (20 miles) β Cruise through the monuments, detour to the Wharf, or grab coffee in Georgetown. The Monkey fits right in with city traffic and parking is a breeze.
Frederick, MD (45 miles) β Quaint historic streets, good food, and a perfect day-trip loop through charming neighborhoods.
Countryside Escapes:
Skyline Drive (Entrance at Front Royal β 70 miles) β Curvy mountain roads with views for days. The Monkey lives for this kind of twisty, scenic nonsense.
Middleburg & Loudoun Wine Country (30β50 miles) β Rolling hills, horses, and vineyards. Yes, you can tour wine country on a 125cc bike (just donβt drink and ride).
Harpers Ferry, WV (65 miles) β Civil War history meets riverside serenity. Park the Monkey and walk across the footbridge for killer views.
This isn't a bike for breaking land-speed records β it's for those who want to ride with joy, not just speed. Whether you're a city slicker or a backroad explorer, the Monkey is your quirky companion for unforgettable rides.
The bike was perfect. The only thing better was Sobek, the host. He was communicative and proactive, flexible with logistics, and gave an amazing tour . . . Read More
