Japanese automaker Honda is known for producing motorcycles of the highest quality for every budget, but the company is also showing its sense of humor and ability to not always take itself seriously, as evidenced by the introduction of a miniature motorcycle dubbed the 'Monkey.'
A high-tech version of the 1960s-era Monkey bike, this particular offering comes equipped with a 125cc motor that is capable of producing a quirky 9.25 horsepower. The motorbike weighs in at 107 kilograms, making it a veritable beast by minibike standards.
What's great about this miniature motorbike is quite simply its irreverent and goofy design, which is designed to capture the attention and purchase orders of people looking to revisit the nostalgia of funky minibikes of past decades.
