Monkey, it does not mean the animal that you can often find in a zoo. It is the Japanese motorcycle brand of Honda Motor. The bike (minibike) looks kind of modest as you can know by taking a look. Then they call it Monkey, it is said.
HONDA Monkey Limited "Gold Painted"

N.B.: Only 5,000 Ones Restrictively Produced in 1996
Honda Motor was established in 1948, they have produced and exported countless cars and motorbikes. If you take a walk for a while at some streets in Japan, you will easily see Honda-made things run on the road. And I guess you are not so hard finding Honda products overseas like America and China. If he/she knows nothing about Honda in the motor field, it is not smart to deal seriously with him/her, said my personal opinion.
And Honda Motor produced their amusement park Tama-Tech in 1961 Tokyo. Monkey bikes were originally manufactured for the attractions. And then they officially launched it out in 1967.

What is the Monkey's specialty? The bikes are simple on the structure, you can easily customize and repair if you have some basic knowledge. Now, as widely known, the recent worldwide situation shows they tend to avoid motor things since they don't like to hurt nature anymore. No idea to stop the inclination. So will Monkey get to be on the decrease like other motorbikes? Who knows?
