The temperature has dropped,its dry perfect for a ride out,
stopped for a coffee at a roadside greasy spoon,
the guy does my drink and said " nice bike what's it worth "?
my reply " Money wise or fun wise "?
both, Money wise £3k,fun wise? priceless !
NO fancy £800 exhaust or over the top things that
cost a fortune , just little bits to make it mine !
Iv had bikes that cost a FORTUNE over the years
( my 1500 goldwing )when i retired at 55,
but I love this plain and simple single cylinder
go anywhere Monkey, and I could sell it over
and over again, but would i ????????????????????
only when Hell freezessssssssssssss over ! :)
so What's your bike worth ?

I have velly little money in my Monkey. Preflashed ECU cost the most. Maybe $500 total in parts. DIY mods cost me nothing but own time (decat and airbox hack). Haven't installed my ported head which will add to the bill but stock Honda parts for these little bikes are velly inexpensive. Not to mention I get a hefty discount on new bikes and parts thru the dealership.

Bought the '22 with 600 miles on the clock for a smidge over 3k. Added, collected, and installed most of 3k worth of go fast parts. Have some engine stuff to install but I will wait until the off season to do that. High compression piston, cam, larger tb. Probably gonna build another engine to waste some more money on because if one engine is good, 2 is better. That being said, I plan on crashing this thing. A lot. Money well spent.
