Lithium Replacement Battery Help

Hi all. My husband and I have Monkeys, mine a 2022 banana. Earlier this year, my battery wasn't holding a charge well and he was going to replace it with a Lithium. Unfortunately he had a pretty bad stroke at that time and isn't capable of that right now. I'd like to get the battery for mine, but I'm really struggling with being sure it is the right power, size, etc. If anyone has a good site they find searching easy, and trust, I would really appreciate it.

The current battery is the Honda YUASA YTZ5S. (I've seen some replacements say they fit the YTZ4S-BS but not sure that is the same?)

Edit: I'm in the US

Private Party Sale Price?

I unfortunately am about to sell my red 2021 Monkey with 800 miles on it. I’m trying to get an idea of what I should list it for, but Facebook Marketplace is all over the place from $5k down to $2k for similar bikes.

The bike is basically in new condition still but aside from the bolt on luggage rack, is bone stock. What do you think is a reasonable price to list it at?

Monkey Business

Philadelphia is my favorite city to visit so many good riding spots and wild bike gangs doing wheelies and running around.

Remove Exhaust Cover

Besides the very obvious Allen fastener, how do I remove this chrome cover? It looks like there are two other connections behind it but I can’t get to them. I’d like to powder coat it black.

Sad Day

I bought my red monkey brand new in 2019. I had a few mods on it and it put a smile on my face every time I took it out for a zip around town.

I’ve had a someone steal my red valve stem covers, break a mirror, throw trash on it. Today though, some low life stole it.

I rode it into work and it was parked for less than 45 minutes when some walked up and walked away pushing it down the street. I had it parked right in front of our employee entrance and even with security cameras the greazy bastard just took it.

I’ve never had a vehicle stolen before, I made a police report and filed my insurance claim. My wife said I could get another but I don’t know that it’s worth the heartache. I loved my monkey but it seemed like someone was always messing with it.

Hug your bikes, give them good gas, you never know when your last ride will be.

New Monkey Helmet

A bit frivolous but I had to have one. Matches my 2019 perfectly.Fits OK with large but really need an XL. High quality and the view is fantastic. The face cover flips all the way up and the quality is really nice. If you have a big head avoid these are Asian sized. Again snug with me but it’ll adjust I am sure.

2019 monkey range on full tank.

Hello, i have a used 2019 monkey. I was wondering about the rated fuel consumption compared to my actual one.

I mainly ride in town and i can’t get more than 150km/93 miles out of a full tank. I mainly use e95 fuel, which is max 10% ethanol.

I see people mentioning double of what i get mpg wise.

Mods on the bike are a yoshimura exhaust and a takegawa intake. No tune, no cam (yet).

I have checked tire pressures and chain tension. I weigh ~75kg/165lbs with gear.
