Thank you for the beautiful video. We should all celebrate the harmless enjoyment of life more often.

Came here for the monkey. Stayed for the unexpected life lessons. Kudos 👍🏽

You are a true motorcyclist, real spirit of adventure.

dude, you're actually really funny, your references to 70's Hong Kong kung-fu movies, your scenario, no thrills low budget full of ideas videos are really cool. You made me laugh in the first minute of it, and actually clapped my hands saying; haha, that was funny...

I just love this video... Your sense of humour and the camera angles as well.. Those Harley riders had given a glance of admiration and amusement for you and the Monkey.. Just enjoyed it... Keep going 💪💪💪 😄😄.

Can't wait to buy my Monkey this summer, had a 2014 Grom in 2014 when they came out. Sold it to buy a 2017 FZ09, big mistake. The FZ was fast, big, fun but too much bike for my needs. Missed my Grom too much, sold the FZ09 to buy a 2019 CB300R, aka the Big Grom. Loved it, did everything right but I crashed into a deer going 90kmh. The CB didn't survive 😢 After one year without riding I'm ready to ride again, all healed up, so it's Monkey time 😊 Love watching your videos, they are very well made. Beautiful Monkey, good choice in mods 👍

Love the intro ! Great video and great recorded trip!

Much respect. Well done.

As a Monkeybiker myself I realy enjoyed your adventure to Sturgis 👍🙈😎 great editing sir, you have my subscription 👌 I have lots of adventures on my Monkey here in the UK 🇬🇧 PS stock seat always 😅😂👍

I agree with what you said about Harley-Davidson. I agree with almost everything you've said about everything

I think the perfect bike for you is the Honda CL500. It’s a compromise between the Monkey and a larger bike. There are also a ton of aftermarket parts since it’s a rebel!

Nice! I had a Grom, then I sold it.

Good video. I like your outlook on life I currently have a Honda Cb125 and I really want to replace it with a monkey!

Thoroughly enjoyed your ride along. Thanks for sharing.

Hilarious video, thanks! I also want a Monkey now!! 😂

Very entertaining dude..

I like the looks of the Royal Enfield Classic 350.

Excellent video. Commentary was funny and thoughtful. Really appreciated the part at 13:18. Subscribed. Hope to see more from you soon.

Greetings from this side of the Atlantic Ocean!😃 The dramatic event that ocurred, when he was on his way to work, was awesome! Even way better than the whole last Star Wars triology with Rey!💯🤣 I could easily imagine it being narrated by David Attenborough, like a british voice describing a mating ritual in a episode of National Geographic.😂 "The human species is a curious one... Often the male ask some kind of permission to the female, less the male doesn't mind peeling his banana on his own later at night... So, this grumpy male, was on his way to work... But, was unfortunate to step on a banana peel, left on the ground by some other primate that populate the area... And after crashing its body against the coconut tree nearby, on his way to ground, he was hit&encapsulated by a falling coconut, which made him groggy... Like a drunk kung fu motorcyclist at Sturgis during the Wet T-Shirt Contest... Until he finally stumbled and falls on a working 2 wheel monkey raft and he's taken away by the river of tarmac, very far, far away from that place..." 😅 Wow! I've never seen such a seat! That seat looks really great, specially if you're looking to photograph your bike, but the original is way better to ride a long trip.🍑❤‍🩹 Beautiful and interesting scenarios on your way to Sturgis! Nice choice of melodies as well. And the roads look in good shape... It makes wanna ride on it. Was it boring, taking in account the fact that Honda Monkey has very low maximum speed, and the jurney made on very long straight roads? I love H.D. bikes but i have the same opinion about it: overrated and overpriced, indeed. And they overconsume too much fuel too. «The Honda Fury resembles a Praying Mantis!» - Hilarious analogy!!!🤣I love that bike! Not the insect in matter.😅 The Honda VTX is impressive! Great choice! Have a great week, ride safe, and watch good movies!🏍💨✌😎 (PS: you forgot to turn On the automatic Subtitles.😉)

Well, 1# you found out the bigger original seat, although not as "Cool looking" as the little thin silly seat. Would have made this trip a lot more live able. I made the almost same exact trip from MN in a Jeep Grand Cherokee last fall, and my butt never got sore!

Hilarious intro and editing! Really enjoyed the video mate

So loved this video

Cool adventures man. I’m jealous. I want a monkey and do that lol

Love the shots your 360 took!..

great editing and humor !

Monkey ❤👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

What an adventure. I bet you wished you had put the stock seat back on for that ride. You're inspiring me to try a longer road trip. I have a 2019 Monkey and love it. After riding the Monkey for three years, I thought bigger would be better as well and purchased a KTM 390 Adventure. I'm glad I kept the Monkey because I don't like the KTM after all. I would like to test ride the new Honda SCL500 and the new Triumph 400's that are coming out. I sat on the SCL at my local dealership and it kind of felt like a larger Monkey, so I'm anxious to give it a go. Looking forward to your future videos.

You should ride a Kawasaki Vulcan 900 classic just to try it out. They have fairly big tires and enough power for the highway

New sub here. Thanks josh for the info u put in your vids

great video..

1st class Video with 1st class Scenery. Suppose the Scenery is on Parr with over the pond here in "Bonnie Scotland" but without as much rain lol.

Like your vid I loved my Grom. Get a mid sized bike. 500-700cc Or good too. VTX are good. Heavy but good.

Take a look at the Kawasaki Vulcan S

Subscribed, brilliant!!👍

I accidently went to Sturgis sweetie!. LOL

If you like Hondas, try the rebel 1100. Great bikes.

i hear ya. i just finished a 1000 mile ride on my csc rx250 cyclone.just shows you can enjoy just riding

No way you're from Minnesota too! HAHA

Hi man. Great video. I found it because Im buying a stock monkey bike and going camping on it straight away. Im also going to put my insta360 on mine. How far away is the camera from you? It looks pretty cool

If you're going to ride 700 miles on a 125 Honda, make it a Monkey. Great video

Brilliant

Great content bro. U make me feel that monkey fever. I want one. Best price new for 2023 is 4599 here in Ireland. Probably need to lower the seat height. Could I just lower the back shocks and leave the front forks alone as it looks to complicated for a newbie like me.

Would never go where there are that many people, just call me antisocial. Nice trip for you thou.

Awesome, I'm thinking about buying a monkey, it's a toss between a monkey or Honda Super cub, doesn't seem like you can get as much gear on a monkey than on a cub??not sure, new subscriber n great video btw.

So wehen it comes to highways with 65+ mph what do u do? Do you ever ride the shoulder or just ignore everybod? Im curious kus i wanna try it on my spade 150

You rode that thing on the hwy? Wtf?

On the Monkey I’m sure you’re able to enjoy the scenery a lot more instead of having a big fairing blocking half your view!

Hello are you happy with the Monkey ? No problems mechanical ? Thank you 😉🇧🇪

PS, my other Bike is an Indian Vintage dark horse 116 👍😎🙈

Your ridiculous "woke" comment aside, it sounds like you want an adventure bike like the Honda CRF300L Rally or Kawasaki KLX300SM or the Suzuki DRZ400SM.
