The Monkey is built to handle whatever you've got.

Honda Bike Z125M MONKEY 125

Derived from the Honda Z series (produced from 1961 to 1999) and the Ape model that followed, the Monkey brings freedom and fun to city riding.

Fun is the operative word because the Honda Monkey is guaranteed to brighten up your day while you weave in out of traffic with ease. It’s sure to put a smile on the face of road users and pedestrians alike too. Even better, this compact motorcycle is ideal urban transport – and it’s an absolute joy to ride.

There’s an appealingly nostalgic element to the Monkey since it’s very much made in the image of the original. Nevertheless, Honda has worked hard to make it a bike for today, providing it with its most powerful – and wonderfully frugal – engine to date, for example.

Whether you require a motorcycle that’s ideal for shopping trips, city commutes or camping excursions, the Honda Monkey is certain to provide you with a happy, hassle-free riding experience.

Simian style

The Monkey is so-called because of its cheeky and cheerful demeanour; there’s no other motorcycle quite like it, and this modern-day iteration is the best-looking version yet. The bike’s classic design elements remain in place: largish frame, compact yet chunky wheels, elevated mudguards, expansive circular headlamp and high-rising handlebars. Nevertheless, there are several tell-tale signs that denote the bike’s wholly modern qualities, such as a super-comfortable seat and an all-new 125cc engine. The latest Monkey model is surprisingly light too, weighing all of 104 kilogrammes. What’s more, there are three head-turning colours to choose from: Pearl Glittering Blue, Pearl Nebula Red and – appropriately enough – Banana Yellow.

Retro-modern Monkey

The latest Monkey iteration looks like the one we know and love – and indeed, it very much is. However, the bike’s retro style is supported by up-to-the minute tech. For instance, a full-LCD circular instrument cluster isn’t something the original model could be said to have possessed.

All-LED illumination

The latest Monkey model features full-LED lights, the most prominent of which is an enlarged circular headlamp, a noteworthy design feature that provides exceptional illumination.

Complementary chrome

Whichever colour scheme you select, you can be certain it’ll perfectly complement the bike’s highly polished chrome steel fixtures and fittings, which include high-level mudguards and handlebars.

Monkey makeover

The Monkey is powered by an SOHC, four-stroke, two-valve 125cc engine, which is paired with a five-speed gearbox. It’s a set-up that outputs 9.3bhp and 11Nm of torque, which is more than enough to handle the hustle and bustle of even the busiest of urban landscapes. Actually, it’s unlikely that you’ll need to move beyond second gear in such situations. Yes, the Monkey is a perky little performer and it’s very affordable to run. With a full 5.6-litre tank, it easily manages a 220-mile range while returning an average 110mpg and producing CO2 emissions from just 35g/km. If you’re looking for a super-affordable and highly exuberant form of city transport, there are few vehicles better than the Honda Monkey, which handles like a dream. Oh, and it’s fitted with an alarm that will help keep it safe from would-be motorcycle thieves.
