Honda Dax parts

 —  Parts by model

Honda Dax parts sit inside the same 4Mini range we have supplied from Ladprao, Bangkok since 2002. Almost everything we hold for the Monkey was catalogued for the Dax alongside it, which is why a Dax owner and a Monkey owner usually end up talking to us about the same suppliers.

The Dax shares its parts range with the Monkey

Our archive lists the Dax with the Monkey, Gorilla and Chaly on one genuine-parts page, and the Japanese special parts page is headed for the Monkey and the Dax together. That is not a filing convenience. The two machines share enough of their layout that the same exhaust makers, fork and brake suppliers and engine specialists cover both.

Some parts are Dax-only and we treat them that way — the frame plate, the chain guard and shift-pattern decals, and swingarms cut specifically for the Dax, including a wider type. When you ask for something, tell us it is a Dax rather than a Monkey even if the part looks identical, because the difference is often a few millimetres at the mount.

Genuine Honda Dax parts

Genuine components come out of the Honda factory parts system in Thailand or in Japan. This covers the ordinary consumables a running Dax needs and the small trim items that are hardest to find abroad once a machine is old: cables, lenses, rubbers, seals, badges and the decals that go on the frame and the chain guard.

The decals are worth singling out, because they are what stops a restoration at the last step. Our archived listing carried the Dax neck plate, two different chain-guard decals, the shift-pattern label for the side of the frame and the drive-chain caution label, along with entries tied to particular variants such as the ST50S. Ask for them by what they say and where they sit on the machine, and send a photograph of the panel if the original is gone.

Genuine ordering is exact rather than approximate. If you have a part number, send it. If you do not, send the part name with your frame number and, where you can, a photograph of the part or the place it fits. Genuine parts ordered from Japan are normally available in about four working days when they are not backordered at the factory.

Special parts from the Japanese tuning houses

The special parts side is where a Dax gets modified rather than repaired. Our archived pages for the Monkey and Dax group these by job — exhaust, swingarm, fork, brake, engine — and name the makers we ordered from directly, among them Takegawa, Easyway, Yoshimura, Mizumoto Racing and Heat-Magic, with titanium and stainless silencers among the systems listed.

These are ordered against a specific build, not bought off a shelf. Two Daxes with the same year can take different parts depending on what has already been changed, so a description of the current state of the machine is worth more to us than the model year. The wider brand directory on our parts from Japan page shows the makes we deal with.

Parts we make ourselves

A number of parts for the Monkey and the Dax are made under our own name. The Faddybike range grew out of what customers kept asking for and could not get: swingarms, fork kits, big-bore and high-compression pistons, carburettor kits and manifolds, brake and cockpit parts, and cosmetic pieces for the small Hondas — the Dax, Monkey, XR, ZB, PBR, Z50, CT70 and Minitrail among them.

Two entries in that range are Dax-specific rather than shared. One is a swingarm made two centimetres wider than standard, for builds running a fatter rear tyre; the other is a black-finished lengthened swingarm listed against the Dax alone. Around them sit the parts both machines use: rearsets, upside-down fork kits, high-compression pistons in more than one gudgeon-pin size, Keihin PE24 and PE28 carburettor kits with their intake rubbers and manifold gaskets, oil coolers, brake fluid reservoirs and stays, calipers, polished engine covers and headlights.

These are the parts independent shops abroad buy from us repeatedly, and the reason a dealer list exists at all. If you are outside Thailand it is worth checking the stockists we supply before ordering direct; if there is nobody near you, ordering direct is the normal route and works the same way.

Engine work on a Dax

The Dax runs the same horizontal single as the rest of the family, so the engine catalogue is the family catalogue: cylinder kits, pistons, camshafts, clutch components and transmissions, along with the machined covers and fittings that go with them.

Where owners come unstuck is combination rather than choice. A carburettor needs its manifold and intake rubber, a big-bore kit needs a head that will take it, and a clutch upgrade changes what the transmission will tolerate. Tell us what the finished bike is meant to do and what is already fitted, and we will quote the pieces that work together rather than the pieces you asked for one at a time.

Ordering Honda Dax parts from Bangkok

Nothing here is sold from a live catalogue. Every order begins as an email: you describe the machine and the part, we check the supply source in Thailand or Japan, and we come back with availability and a price in Thai Baht. Payment is by bank transfer, by credit card through a secure link, or by PayPal.

The order policy sets out the whole sequence, including the part we would rather you read before you commit: once an order has shipped we cannot take it back except for a manufacturer’s fault, and parts cannot be returned to Thailand. Identifying the right part before we pack it is therefore the most useful thing either of us can do.

It is often easiest to start from the job. A quote request can be opened with a category already filled in for genuine replacement parts, engine and performance work, suspension, braking, drivetrain or bodywork.

Getting a Dax order to you

Orders are packed at our own premises in Bangkok. Postal EMS runs about four to seven days from Thailand or Japan; postal air parcel takes roughly two weeks where EMS does not reach. Heavier or bulkier items — a swingarm, a set of forks, bodywork — go by courier or air cargo instead, and we price the shipping into the quotation so you see the landed figure before you decide.

Import duty and tax are charged when the parcel arrives in your country and are yours to settle. Rules differ enormously between countries, so a call to your own customs office is worth making before a large order.

Ask for a quotation

Send the part number if you have one, or the part name together with your frame number if you do not, and tell us the destination country and the quantity. A photograph of the part, or of where it fits, settles most identification questions on the spot.
