Honda gave its Monkey bike a bit of a facelift for the 2023 model year, what you might call the BNG (for Bold New Graphics) treatment on one of its oldest surviving product lines. The new paint matches the Honda Monkey's whimsical nature befitting its theme-park origins with vibrant colorways up for grabs this year.
