2019 Honda Super Cub C125 ABS

[LongRanger_imp]

Glad to see Honda is bringing back the bikes we grew up on. There was a huge void in the market for a very long time in regards to small, obtainable, street legal machines.

Does anyone know if the 125 Monkey will be/is made in Japan? (Not that it will change my mind in getting one). Already got an e-mail into Mr. T about parts availability. I'm sure it will have to be uncorked a bit.

As for speed, Everything I have read puts the Grom at around 50 MPH. I assume the Monkey will be the same. For comparison , the Kawasaki Z125 tops out at around 61 MPH.

this means nothing but the Grom (same engine) is built in Thailand.

I wouldn't say it means nothing, but anyways, if the Grom is Thai, then the monkey mosty likely will be too.

What do you mean "I wouldn't say it means nothing (Thai vs Japan)?" Should I cancel my deposit and request a refund? My Thai-built CBR250R didn't have any issues but maybe I was lucky with that one. Stichill seems to have had no issues with his CBR250R either. Please enlighten me with regard to your comment because the last thing I need to do is waste $5000 on a piece of junk. Curious to hear about your experience with Thai-built Hondas.

whoa slow down there pal
I was not commenting on Thailand built Hondas
The previous poster just wondered where they were going to be built
I know for a fact Groms are built in Thailand so I posted it
I was NOT bashing Thai built Hondas in any way shape or form
where did you read that?
In fact I have owned three with excellent results

PCX125
PCX150
Forza300

I will buy Thai built Hondas again
by the way I head to your glorious state at 5am Mon
two weeks to carve your wonderful roads

peace out

It's all good. I misinterpreted your comment as a critical indictment of Thai bikes and was curious about your experience and point of view. Thanks for clarifying.

If you'll be near the Denver area while you're out here, give me a shout and I'll be happy to show you some excellent roads that are not on the tourist maps.
