First one is a Honda Monkey with a Kitaco Body Kit and tons of aftermarket parts including NSR50 forks and wheels.

Second picture is a JDM Honda Monkey R, similar to the Honda ZB50 sold in 1988 here in the USA. You aren't getting any response because it's posted in the wrong forum. The bike is owned by Jason Little in Texas, and is far from stock.

Both bikes cost over $6K to build from the looks of them.

Looking over the Monkey R again, probably close to 8K.

Oooh, look, nifty build ideas...

Wait, mussn't, can't look at the pretties! Oh so shiny... and costly, must remember the pain of the cc bill, remember it...

Focus, think deep thoughts about rebuilding a 1st gen Ducati SBK from scratch... pay no attention to the Over Racing dual exhaust or pretty underbraced swingarm... they mean nothing to you...

...breathe in, breathe out...

GAH! I NEED ECCENTRIC ADJUSTERS!

Actually the guy who made the Mini Z1000R was going after the look of the Original Eddie Lawson Replica which was the Z1000R (KZ1000R in US) The ZRX is just a replica of Eddie's Replica from the early 80s...








I had two of those a Green 01 and now a Black 01...
