Anyone into monkeybikes, or bikes to go on ya camper van? now I am currently building a blinged up Honda dax copy but these new bikes from Honda due out in may promise to be great cheap fun, wondered what ya thoughts are? So much tuning and bling potential also as there made in Thailand, much cooler than ya standard 125 geared bikes out there at similar prices, I am admin on the Honda msx125uk forum on facebook, were eagerly awaiting there arrival, plenty of pics to look at what the thais ae doing to them, I know the old codgers will moan at the very thought of modifying owt on here am just asking ya to be open minded! link to facebook site- https://www.facebook.com/groups/486935651341978/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; or if ya cant see owt, theres the msxthai.com site, use ya google translator and check out the images!

Its a 125 so it will be as much fun as any other 125.
i.e. none at all.

Nothing wrong with a 125. Its not all about how big the engine is, its what you do with it.

A 125 can be quite a hoot in town.

Last week after a bike meet I went for a run to a local river car park with two 125s on my B400. One was a small enduro type and the other a Honda S-Wing 125. Boy could they move, due to their small wheelbase, flying over roundabouts etc. I honestly had to thrash the throttle to keep up through the streets and only made headway with them on long stretches where the 400 then had it's advantage. It got me thinking that I might get a suitable 125 capable of 'near' 70 mph, ie with the full 15bhp.

yup ya forget size n weight and turning circle etc, then theres all that custom and tuning stuff coming and already available for it abroad, pcx has a following too but does that mean your bored and uninspired by it aswell? maybe you should try before dismissing it, remember its these sort of opinions of something before ya try them is what has the non scooterist fraternity dismissing scooters as crap before they even try them, sometimes ya gotta keep an open mind!

Looks well built, mimicking streetfighters. A shame it's only 10hp and not 15.

" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; seems exciting enough in skilled hands! upto 210cc barrel kits being made for it so far!
