Miniature Tribute to the Honda Monkey 2000

Originally unveiled at Honda's Tama Tech in 1961, the Monkey stood out for its compact silhouette and fun aesthetic, typically shown with a red frame and white fuel tank. To mark the new millennium Honda issued a 2000 Special limited to 3,000 examples, a model that still appeals to classic bike fans.

Accurate Scale Parts and Dimensions

The Tamiya 1/6 model reproduces the 2000 Special with fine detail. Finished dimensions are 224mm long by 100mm wide and 175mm tall. The kit includes a faithful miniature of the 49cc SOHC engine, foldable handlebars and metal spring suspension, plus decal sheets to represent a range of Monkey liveries.

Options for Custom Builds

Custom work is part of the Monkey's charm and this kit reflects that with two optional custom parts, including an alternative muffler. Builders can tailor the look and finish to suit display goals or diorama projects.

Ordered Tamiya 1:6 Monkey Bike. Arrived in U.K. quickly, well packed and following my extra instructions perfectly. 10 days Hong Kong to U.K. at Christmas. Well done.

What skill level suits this kit?

Intermediate modellers will find the parts and small details rewarding. Beginners can build it too but should expect careful trimming and painting of small components.

Are all parts painted or do I need to finish them?

Parts are supplied in coloured plastic where appropriate, but painting and detailing are needed to match the authentic look and to add weathering or highlights.

Does the kit include decals for multiple versions?

Yes, decal sheets are included so you can reproduce different Monkey 2000 Special schemes as shown in the instructions.

Can I use this model in a diorama?

Absolutely. Its compact size and accurate detail make it ideal for small-scale street or garage dioramas alongside other 1/6 accessories.
