(will we see this monkey in the USA? fill us in!)
Honda’s Monkey Limited – Gizmodo: “Gizmodo Japan – Honda’s 50cc leisure motor bike aka “Monkey” first appeared in 1967. It is small, but carries a 4 stroke engine is beloved by many and looks like something Yoshi would ride. This year, Honda is going to sell 3000 special model “Monkey Limited (BA-AB27)”. Most of it, like the tank and the fender, are chrome plated and engraved. It is equipped with solid “Monkey” emblem and two-tone seat in silver and black. It will sell for $2260 and I want one so I can flip over on it and make it onto America’s Funniest Home Videos.”
*I’m pretty stoked about this news if they actually send US a few batches

I almost bought a 1971 version of this over Christmas. I wish they would release them again in the US. They are little tanks and upgradeable up the wazooo! If this comes here it will be a toss up between the Madass and one of these for me.
