I'm not sure those of a certain age have done the monkey bike thing so the market needs to be the youngsters who've already "done the grom" & S/H market seems flooded.

it needs to be priced right and Honda's current market strategy doesn't bend that way.

Priced right (again) the new Cub will be the seller especially as people are paying crazy crazy money for originals

New cub will be around 3k the monkey around 3.5, as for age, the vast majority who i knock about with who have little bikes are 40 plus, many 50 plus, some havd them for the back of camper vans, some as toys or 2nd bikes, usually loads about in warmer weather tooling about, the monkeys will appeal to everyone and many of the traditional monkey riders who hate the modern looking msx bikes and similar, trust me they will sell 1000s no problem.
