Honda’s Minibike-Flotte
Honda has the most comprehensive mini-bike selection on the market with the 125cc Dax, the Monkey 125 and the MSX125 Grom. The retro-styled Dax and funky Monkey evoke fond memories of the 1970s, while the Grom presents itself as a modern pocket-sized mini-bike. The combination of manageable stature, fuel economy and lots of fun to ride make these bikes the perfect entry for novice riders and the young at heart.
