A Honda Monkey has been turned into a Ducati Paul Smart replica
It’s now possible to combine a Honda Monkey 125 with the classic Ducati Paul Smart 1000 colours.
A Honda Monkey 125, in the classic colours and bodywork of Ducati’s Paul Smart 1000 LE motorcycle, can actually be bought and shipped to the UK.
Two models we never expected to put in the same sentence, yet here we are. The Honda Monkey 125, in the classic Ducati Paul Smart 1000 LE colours, is available as either a full-fledged motorcycle, or as a standalone body kit ready to fit at home.
If you purchase either version, you get the option of adding aluminium wheels to the bike, as opposed to using standard spoked ones.
The complete Honda Monkey 125 is available and can be shipped to the UK for £6,907, but if you instead opt for just the kit itself, the price drops to £2,429. Whichever way you skin it, that’s a significant chunk of change for a dinky 125.
The kit gets you a chrome exhaust finished in silver, rearsets, a front cowl, tank cover, a beige-coloured seat, rear cover, front fender, and a tail lamp. It also receives a handlebar designed specifically for this bike.
Note Kevlar is the man behind the kits, who is a well-known Thai custom bike designer, and winner of various motorcycle build contests.
The Ducati Paul Smart 1000 LE limited edition motorcycle was unveiled in 2006 by the Italian brand, which celebrated Smart’s racing success in 1972 at Imola.
The bike’s design is based on the Ducati 750 Imola Desmo race bike that Smart rode to victory, and the 1974 750 SuperSport bike that it originally inspired.
You can find out more about the fully built bike and the kit over on the official website.
