I was able to get my hands on the BMW F750GS for the day so here's my review on the bike. This is a totally honest review of the bike as I'm just a normal guy. I wasn't given this bike by the BMW press team or anything and this video hasn't had to have been pre-approved. Overall it's a good bike which will do anything you need. This one was loaded with all the optional extras from BMW so would ...

The Honda CBF 125 is for sale brand new at around £3,159.00 for 2024 so the BMW 310GS is a bit more than £1,000 more!
Obejrzałem. Podoba się. Serdeczne Pozdrowienia z Polski.
How tall are you
What cc m8
Its isle of wight
do you reckon a 100kg rider will be ok on this or would the engine struggle to get to speed?
I just bought a 2024 and i weight 230 pounds, i still hit 110 km/h ( sorry metric here ) with the wind in my back.
Great video and after all that Monkey needs a home in Bristol 😂
That exhaust note really opens up with the Ti Akra headers,.. <3
All this massive moaning about wind on a bike, is a little like a surf boarder complaining about the water 😂 modern riders need to grow a pair, if you don't like wind, you shouldn't be riding a bike 😉
Yeah but a windshield would be nice especially for long rides
@@propaganda1945 true it helps, but some people are literally being like limp lettuce about the breeze 🤷🏻♂️ it's a motorcycle guys 🙄
picking up my 2024 monkey this weekend!!! new addition to the bike family (my hub and i have 6 lol) cant wait to ride it! will be fun
Just bought red one 24
I want it as well ! 😁
I need help deciding which bike the F750 GS or the Honda Transalp. I love the GS, and I am leaning that way. I have dreamed of that bike, but in 2024, they replace it with the F800 GS, 10 extra HP, and a few more options. Gotta love BMW! I've been driving BMW sport wagons for a decade and have no issues on any of my rides. Exceptional cars ... So, a simple question. Is the BMW a better bike over the Honda?
I own a Monkey since 2022. Fantastic bike! Having problems with the battery due to its limited capacity and the fact that I do not use the bike a lot (second bike). The engine of this gem is incredible, economical (1,70 liters per 100 km) and full of response considering how small it is.
Hello ,are you happy with the Monkey bike ? No problems engine ? Thank you 😉🇧🇪
Er, surly you mean the Isle of whight?
No. Wight
😂😂
On your way to maccys in the morning it looks like your cousin dropped something on the approach to the around to me looked like a phone?
Great video! Keep up the good work. Deffo keep the monkey if it puts a smile om your face
I purchase one 3 months ago and unfortunately I'm not really enjoying it (no fault of its own) basically the seating position doesn't suit me due to lower back pain( tailbone injury) my previous bike was a Benelli TNT 125 same as the grom it seems the slightly more forward position its ok for me! Does anyone know of any tricks the get the monkey into that position? Can the handlebars be moved forward or the seat be raise up or changed or something? Brilliant bike but ❤ if it comes to it I will probably trade against a grom or maybe a cub!
Honda Monkey 125 seems perfect for the Isle of White.
Why don’t any of these review videos show the actual bike? It might as well be a video about the road!!
Probably because this isn’t actually the review of the bike. Read the title for the clues.
didn't see the bike ?? you could've been riding a broomstick for all I know .
Look at my other videos if you want to see the bike. Pretty hard to show it when riding it.
I still have my 2013 I bought new. I put a custom windscreen molded to match the curves of the headlight and clocks nacelle. I am a senior now and the screen is a must for my comfort when I have to take the highway. In the Western US you cant always get from place to place on secondary roads. Now being older I truly appreciate this little Suzuki even more. I do 180's with my feet up and move it about the garage no problems. It is super happy from 50 to 65 mph. Zero issues. Only getting to the airbox and cylinder head to check the valves is as bad as a liter sport bike. It has the most supple ride of any bike I've ridden and my back appreciates that. A very rare bike in the states. I haven't seen another one on the road in years.
I bought Monkey bike back in 2018, and so far made 5000km full of fun with it. (as my second bike). To me it is a keeper.
Very nice bike. What brand of exhaust is that? And did you need to buy any extra parts to mount the stock heat shield?
That looks like a fun. Thank you.
where did you get the exhuast
It sounds like a lawn mower ; must be a Briggs and Stratton ! Just kidding. "You meet the nicest people on a Honda".
Good review
Proud F750 Owner here ridden 7000 miles now . Thanks for the video.
I am 80 years of age ( really ) and just bought a Monkey and now have 400 miles on it. This is just right for me, for 9 horse power it is surprisingly quick and gets up to 45-50 quite well, super fun and easy to control and handles turns very good and the comfort level is just fine for me. A really good purchase and am very comfortable ridding this mini moto. Will leave the exhaust stock because I like quiet while ridding, did put mirror extenders on it for a better view to the rear.
That is awesome man!!! 🍻
BMW dealership in West Yorkshire charges £10 to £12 prior to any test ride. Payment isn't refunded either if the bike is purchased thereafter from same dealer....
Looks ace how tall are you? Any problems
How much is insurance dude
£90
@@Pen15UK that’s just a gift that keeps on giving
Wicked video what exhaust have you put on it? I'm 6ft 2" so unfortunately I'm unable to have one 😢
Don’t be daft. You can ride one being 6ft 2
Hi good video could not ear you very well because of the engine noise. Regards barry
Great upload.👌
🙌🎞:O)
You can be easily overlooked, extra caution needed when joining busy roads, traffic
Nice upload and had my red one three weeks new from shop. After having a few groms this was a treat.
I have 6 bikes. All for fun. Monkey I have done 4500m in 14months. 6ft 4 and OK comfort. Reasons to keep. Look great. Cheeeeep to run. Tax. Don.t take up much room. Main reason to keep. Big smile every time I ride it. 👍
True 😂
Safe travels bro I'm from Texas
Thanks for your thoughts! Nice video. - I have ordered the new DAX ST 125, and I have been waiting for 6 months now for delivery.. it should arrive in july, so I'm super exited. I find it so hard to chose between the Monkey and the Dax. I have done a test ride on the brand new Monkey 2023, which has better suspensions than the previous model and it also has 5 gears like your 2021 model. Its just awesome, but the colors of the 2023 model are not as beautiful as your 2021 model.. If I ever should regret buying the Dax, I will be replacing it with the Monkey. I have not yet tried the Dax, as its nowhere to be found in Denmark at the moment, so I just ordered it without ever trying it. I think you will deeply reget it if you sell the Monkey!
Er…. What’s wrong with an old person on a Monkey? ;) You’d love Thailand. £90 for a service?!!!! It’s a third of that here. The most expensive service on a Vespa GTS 300 is only £125 here. Yes! I’m a Brit living in Bangkok.
Great review…Just subscribed. I have had the WereMonkey for over 3 Years . I am still on the stock suspension (at 15 Stone)…I soon got used to not bottoming out. VIVA THE MONKEY REVOLUTION…Cheers Dean (MonkeyDixAdventures)
Thanks. I’ve seen a few of your adventures! Just wish I was a bit further north so I could join in with some of them 👍 I’ve just bought a big dry bag to put on the back so that and the tent and I might head up your way.
@@Pen15UK I am doing a 10 Day Tour starting on the 5th of August…I will head down to the Isle of Wight, then on to Land’s End, up to John O’Groats and then the North Coast 500 before heading back to Manchester….You are welcome to join us…Cheers Dean
Been toying with the idea of grabbing myself a small bike for my ride to work to Portishead. I use my CB1300 at present, but fuel does drop quick over the week. Anyway great video. Greetings from Henbury.👌
You can’t go wrong with one of the small Hondas. I’m getting 131 mpg on the Monkey!
@@Pen15UK Yeah, I saw your review of the Monkey vid. The CB does around 45.. So I'm thinking a nice 125.
how do you compare it to the Inazuma mate ?
Quite a difference. Aside from the slight increase in power, I was seated much higher on the GS. I'd describe it as sitting on the GS rather than in the Inazuma. The CG on the GS was well bellow me so was a very different bike to ride. Given the choice I'd go with the Inazuma if power isn't the deciding factor.
@@Pen15UK thanks for the answer mate. I think the power will not be such a issue as i will not ride it on a highway daily. May be 250ccwill be not that bad at all . Keep posting videos we will watch 😊
Impressed by your speed! I can only muster about 50-55 mph on the flats in my stock 2023 when nobody is blocking the wind.
That’s interesting to know. I’m also quite a big fella so I’m surprised it gives me so much go.
@@Pen15UK Same, I'm over 200lb and it's struggling after 50mph - though I've only got a couple hundred miles on it since new. Maybe it'll loosen up in the next 1000 miles.
I had a Monkey for 1,5 years and got rid of it last year to buy a bigger bike, I loved it, and as you say yourself, so did everyone else. Luckily I am getting another one in 3 weeks, can´t wait. Nice video, have fun and ride safe. ruclips.net/video/Z8T-CQzcnE0/видео.html
I love how we can use pretty much all the bus lanes in Bristol. Makes commuting great fun 🙂
Absolutely! I'm not too sure what the rules are though down Baldwin Street these days.
Did all the extras make much difference to the insurance? It’s a great looking bike 😎
Not really.
Ladies love a monkey 😂😂😂😂
