From what I can tell these are now on US soil, but it seems like not one of the dealers nearby me has ordered one or even has an ETA on the arrival of one...Does anybody have a dealer near them in the US with one of these on the floor?

Negative. My dealer says March for the West Coast and May for Wisconsin. He has 12 ordered and has money down for 8 but doesn't think he will get that many. I get the very first one.
They are being delivered in Australia and this bloke made a vid,,,

And it has been verified they are built in Thailand,,
2019 Honda Super Cub C125 - wow, fun that! I'd scoot on that for a little bit.
Good review -- thanks for sharing. The U.S.-spec Monkey has a similar taillight, which is unlike what you see on the Asian and Euro versions. I believe it was lifted off the Grom.
Sometimes the ugliness of light indicators is due to strict regulations of the import country and the associated cost control.
I like that little 125cc hooligan
Don't think it will be in Canada for 2019.

And the US spec 2019 Monkey turn signals should look very familiar to anyone with a US 2017 cb1100ex. Both use the same turn signal lens at all four corners. Honda part 33401-mfr-305. The chrome bodies of the turn signals are identical to my eye, but part numbers are not the same. Nor are prices - one front turn signal complete for the cb1100ex is about $35 whereas one front turn signal for a Monkey (z125m) is over $150.
The Monkey guys on the Grom forum seem to really dislike their US spec turn signals. Perhaps if they knew the heritage behind them they might be more appreciative!
