Seminole, Florida


« on: February 03, 2021, 03:25:57 AM »

I was looking at a Honda Monkey's, then noticed the Honda Super Cub and was impressed thinking of two for the wife and I to run around on weekends to the beach together. Then the Honda Cub Trail caught my eye. That would be amazing living in the country it is small lightweight and can go virtually anywhere. Good choice to pair with an RV also. Now I'm thoroughly confused. Undecided
  This all started while checking out a Wing at a local Honda dealer as Jerry has set my hook. The Wing would be good for longer trips I desire as retirement approaches. The upcoming West trip, the Mississippi Madness trip...things I would like to start doing.
  One thing I do know, I'm back to Honda reliability and will not stray again.

Those little rascals would be fun.   Smiley LOL on not straying again..........  When you decide to do the RV thing let me know.  We have been doing it for about 15 years now first with the toyhauler when we were riding and now with a conventional 5th wheel.  We have made mistakes and learned a lot from them.  I can pass some of that information along on what to do and things you should not.

I'd be careful about counting on it's import Doug.  It's listed as a semiautomatic machine.

Good to see the price staying up on these 2016’s. Paid $15,999 for mine new in 2017. Same package.
Nice rides for sure.

Terry,
I appreciate your offer and will take you up on that. Many questions, mainly on what to choose. So many options available. I don't even know if a motorized RV would be best or a towable type. Something I can tow with what I have or a dedicated tow vehicle/5th wheel. The more you explore the more questions arise. I need to decide on a type first, then begin searching. Fun to research though.



Jess,
 LOL... it will probably be banned soon, or limit it's capacity.



Pappy,
  That's right, I forgot we have an in-house resident Monkey expert. Do you see any advantages or disadvantages to Monkey vs Super Cub or Cub Trail models?

Just personal preference.
The newest cub models were not available when we bought the Monkeys.
Whatever you decide we will guarantee they will bring lots of smiles per mile. There are tons of mods available for all of the different models out there from engine mods to luggage systems to about anything you can imagine and naturally there are forums to guide you.
