Honda Dax

[KungFooBob]

Who doesn't love a Dax... and a dachshund.



Seems Honda are launching a new Dax... which looks just like the old Dax.

I wonder how much they'll be. I might replace the Vox110 with a Dax for motorhome duties, because, well, a Dax is cool as fuck.

You will need a big pair of pliers to pull it out of your arse after each ride

[KungFooBob]

I could probably fit two in the moho garage... one for each foot.

[A_morti]

I was just about to buy an MSX.
Wonder when the local place will get the Dax in.

[G.P]

I reckon they'll be a little bit more than a Monkey or Grom. £3.5k+ ?
More fun than the old one as they're a 125cc but still have the centrifugal clutch for that absence of grace off the line at the lights

Groms/Monkey bikes are on my list of things I just don't get. Apart from makng you look like a clown,what are they for?

[Felix]

Never knew it went away. Is that not a Monkey bike without the round tank?

In this neck of the woods it should be called a Honda Dag judging by the people I've seen on that type of bike.

He's not local

I like it! Great for fun on a sunny day. I don’t think it will outsell the MSX-125. Certainly not as ugly as the Monkey with the disproportionate seat size.

Honda seem to be cornering the market on small bikes. They have obviously tuned in to the cost of transport in the U.K. - rail, petrol etc.

I wish Suzuki would wake up and bring back the VanVan 200.

When I last spoke to one of their staff he said they were deleting too many models without replacements.

Suzuki have virtually given up on bikes.

They're small, ridiculous, cheap, sooo slow, and you just ride like an absolute div on them.
You'd have to try one to see if it's for you - they really are slow.
Also, not much point on the original exhaust, but the bean can pipes are too much.

[Mr. Dazzle]

For you though Morti slow is fine I think? Presumably you're still in Malta and before that it was Gib...so small, parkable and chuckable are what you really want.

Contrast that with me, living in MK. Its about 200m from my house and then you're on the 70mph grid roads. Id have to gi out of my way to find somewhere with slow narrow streets Shame really, cause I quite like the look of the MSX, but even nipping into town for me involves NSL dual cabbageways.

There's a chap around my area who rides a Honda Grom with no numberplate. He wears the reg plate on his back like a rucksack. I think that,at least, fulfils the brief of being an absolute div.

Like many people.... my mate has one of those tucked away in his garage, folding handlebars and all !

If it's a 70's one and an original Honda engine, etc.. then it could be worth £3-4k!

Yes it is and he knows it!

He has heaps of bikes he says he'll sell when he's finished building his house so he can get a porsche, but the Dax, he's keeping along with my old Superduke. Everything else will go.....

I've done that. Cheap tail tidy fell off, half way up the mountain to Ronda. There's a picture somewhere from the bloke who takes pictures of people on superbikes dragging their knees round the mountain pass, at speeds a Grom can't dream of.
