Bought over 10 years ago as a rare Japanese import item and kept in pieces, I rebuild this 1978 boys toy a few years ago. Believe it or not; with 8 inch polo mint size wheels, 65cc and a top speed around 75 km/h, in The Netherlands it has to be registered as a motorcycle!

It doesn’t make much sense to ride this midget bike as a 6 feet 4 guy, but being a bit peculiar is exactly what the joy of riding it is about. And I am not alone. There is a vivid Honda Monkey scene all over the globe, with Japan as the leader. Join for a ride?
