You may not know Thailand's Note Kevlar by name (yet). However, if you're a certain kind of motorbike fan, though, chances are excellent you've seen (and maybe even dreamt about) one of his fantastic builds in the past.
For my fellow manga and anime nerds (any Toriyama fans in the house?) here, you'll surely have seen and loved his Moto Guzzi V8 Racer Replica Capsule 19 Monkey from a few years back, for example.
But the thing is, if you're any type of creative person, you know that you can't just turn off that juice. You have to keep building, no matter how you or others feel about your work.
It's like breathing that way.
Friends, this is the Smart Monkey 125, and it is a full Ducati Paul Smart replica kit, created specifically to fit your Honda Monkey 125. It's not just a one-off custom, either. Instead, it's available for sale in two flavors: Full, complete bike shipped to you, or a full kit that's ready to assemble on your own Honda Monkey 125 at your whim.
If you purchase either version, you also have the option of adding these sweet aluminum wheels rather than sticking with the standard spoked ones. But as with everything, it'll cost a bit extra. What kind of prices are we talking about? A complete Smart Monkey 125 is listed at US $9,214 right now, not including shipping (which is offered internationally, incidentally).
Opt for just the Smart Monkey 125 kit by itself, and it's US $3,240. What does the kit include? That sweet front cowl, a tank cover, the seat, the rear cover, the front fender, the tail lamp, the side frames (not load-bearing; just for looks), the exhaust, rearsets (yes, really), and of course the handlebar that makes the entire kit work and gives you a more appropriate rider triangle when you're sitting on the bike.
If you just want to look around, or you're interested in maybe getting one of these kits or bikes for yourself, 8ftweekend is Note Kevlar's official international distributor.
