Honda is setting to unleash the Monkey and Super Cub on America in 2019.* (see how I did that LOL, I kill me sometimes)
These bikes are based on iconic motorcycles from Honda’s past like the Mini Trail (Z series) and Trail 90. Both appear to be powered by the same 125cc engine.
The Monkey
“Beginning with a Japanese amusement-park ride, Honda’s 58-year history with the “Monkey” has seen the Z series capture the hearts of generations the world over, offering enjoyable, accessible mobility through a likable design, tiny dimensions, and low weight.”
The monkey will be available in Banana Yellow and Peral Nebula Red. The standard version will cost $3999 and with ABS $4199.
The Super Cub ABS
“A social phenomenon, the Super Cub even inspired a Beach Boys song, its worldwide popularity carrying it to a production milestone of 100 million units in 2017, making it the highest-selling motor vehicle in the world.”
That is a lot of motorcycles… the price for the Super Cub is $3599 with Anti-lock braking standard. The Cub is only available in Pearl Niltava Blue. I had to look up just what Niltava was, turns out it is a blue & yellow bird native to an area from the Himalayas to China and Taiwan.
So what do you think about the Honda Zoo? I am really interested in looking over the Super Cub as my father and later myself road the Trail 90 all over the place!
