The Honda Monkey, a beloved mini-motorcycle, first made its appearance at Honda's "Tama Tech" amusement park in 1961. Its playful design, featuring a red frame and white gas tank, captured the hearts of many. By 2000, Honda celebrated this iconic bike with a special anniversary edition, limited to just 3,000 units worldwide. This model, with its compact size and potential for customization, remains a favorite among motorcycle enthusiasts.
Tamiya's 1/6 scale model offers a detailed recreation of the 2000 Special edition. Measuring 224mm in length, 100mm in width, and 175mm in height, this model includes authentic features such as foldable handlebars and a faithfully replicated 49cc SOHC engine. The kit also boasts metal springs for realistic suspension movement and a variety of decals to represent different versions of the Monkey.
One of the key attractions of the Honda Monkey is its ease of customization, mirrored in this model kit. Builders can choose from two types of custom option parts, including a muffler, to personalize their build. The model's attention to detail and accuracy makes it an excellent addition to any collection, offering both display value and a satisfying build experience.
