Honda will be launching the new Monkey and the Super Cub, two of its most popular retro styled offerings, in the US market. Both these retro-styled offerings were first showcased at last year's Tokyo Motor Show. Honda has confirmed that the Monkey and the Super Cub C125 will be offered as 2019 model and will be launched in the US by September this year. The 2019 Honda Monkey 125 will be mechanically similar to the MSX125/Grom and will also use that motorcycle's 125cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder motor. This is good for 9.2PS and 11Nm and is paired with a four-speed transmission. It uses a steel backbone frame with an oval cross-section swingarm, the new version also comes with inverted forks and dual shocks with 12-inch wheels. The bike weighs 107 kg and carries a 5.6-litre fuel tank. While we can only hope that Honda India brings the Monkey here, scroll below to take a detailed look at the images of the 2019 Honda Monkey
