Take a look at this site for alternative definitions to the word monkey, some are really funny:

I'd say the initial install was pretty straightforward. Had to toss in a few bananas in the car to pursue him though

This one on the other hand was a real pain to install!!
He's is installed as to enclose the air filter, making a true cold air intake.
But as you clearly can see he was not pleased at all with that location....

Time to remove the cat, it will play havoc with the monkey!

I could use a few for around the dorm. It would be really convenient to have one go monkey-slap the fools down the hall. Also need a few for the car, to throw refuse and scat at bad drivers. So.... why dont you sign me up for 5 of them.

Do I need to get cold weather monkeys or can I just put some antifreeze into them?

I find gerbil power works better ... you should see how fast they run when you wave a bit of duct tape at them ....



PS. I suck at the internet and can't post pics

Monkeys are good for low down torque, but you can get a gerbil up to 10,000 RPM before his feet catch fire.

I think the ideal combination would be monkeys for off-the-line acceleration, then switch over to gerbil power for the top end.

Can i just order a monkey for the shop? And can they be trained to bring me tools? I may be interested in 2 if the price is right.
