About the Honda Gorilla Spring Collection
In 1967, Honda Pioneered the field of leisure motorcycles with the
release of the Monkey. The uniqueness of the Monkey made it an instant
hit among the young and young at heart. In August 1978, Honda released
the big brother of the Monkey and appropriately named it Gorilla. Save
the gas tank and seat, the Gorilla adopted fundamentally the same parts
as the Monkey. The most defining aspect of the Gorilla is its swelled
chest, an oversized gas tank, which boasts a capacity of 9 liters
providing a 630 km maximum running distance. Its powerplant was a 49 cc
air-cooled single cylinder SOHC engine, which was also used on Hondas
best selling Super Cub. The Gorilla was also equipped with a manual
4-speed transmission, opposed to the automatic 3-speed system of the
Monkey. Production was ceased in 1992 but the popularity of the machine,
however did not dwindle, with the few remaining used Gorillas fetching
premium prices. It was in February 1998 when Honda resumed production,
this time bringing out a new Gorilla equipped with the Monkeys large
headlamp and using chrome parts on the headlight casing, fender and
other places. January 1999 saw the production of 3500 Honda Gorilla
Spring Collection machines. This version was meant to shine, and
features chrome parts on virtually every visible part of the bike. The
gas tank, the side-cover, the front forks, the chain case, the wheels,
the exhaust pipe cover, even the frame and swing arm glisten with gorgeous chrome.
