Honda's Indonesian subsidiary has officially launched the 2026 Monkey with a new look. Pricing comes in above 88 million rupiah (about $5,400). It's a 125cc mini bike known for its retro styling.
The 2026 Monkey model launched in Indonesia, new design, priced above Rp88M. That price for a 125cc mini bike really shows it's competing on hobby appeal, not practicality. The Monkey is a bike about the joy of ownership more than the spec sheet. I want to take a close look at exactly how they've updated the retro look for today.

If the 'new design' doesn't actually look that different, some people are going to see it as just a price hike.
The Monkey's always been a popular series, so it'll probably keep its devoted fans even with the new design.
The Monkey originated in Japan, right? So why does the new design launch in Indonesia first?
Staggered launch timing by region is pretty common, probably down to regulatory compliance and production scheduling.
Around $5,400 seems like a pretty premium price bracket by Indonesian standards.
Over ¥880,000 is a pretty serious price for a 125cc mini bike.
Retro-style mini bikes tend to be priced with brand value baked in, so it kind of makes sense.
Interesting that the new Monkey design is launching first in Indonesia — curious how it differs from the Japan spec.
