Honda Malaysia's $1000 Bike; Wave Alpha 110 | RTW

The Honda Wave Alpha 110 is around $1000 USD brand new - but this second hand one from 2021 cost me about $600 - and I probably overpaid. It's a great commuter and comes from the Malaysian Boon Siew Honda factory.
It's available in different specs such as drum brake only, front disc, or even the premium sport model. It serves a purpose and I used mine for a 2,600KM trip over 10 days of riding. Was it made for that? No. Did it handle it? Yes. Thanks Honda!

Hello from England again, in the UK these bikes are called ANF 125i Innova’s, I’ve had mine 15 years now and it’s been the best all round bike I’ve ever owned, wise choice 👍😁

[@SmallBikeStuff]

England got the 110 too for a short time and it was actually sold as the Wave! I’ve seen a few for sale there. The 125 innova is a direct model swap of the Thai Honda Wave 125’s pre 2012. Awesome machine and I am glad to see more people in the UK realise how good they can be!

Tq For Have a ride in malaysia

[@SmallBikeStuff]

Thank you my friend. Soon I’ll have a video about our long ride.

[@DobermannJeff]

Ich habe mir auch eines gekauft ca 12tkm mit Goldchain ganz wichtig 😂 habe dafür 1300€ bezahlt. Habe es mir gekauft weil es unfassbar effizient sein soll. Habe noch eine Vision 110 und einen sh 150 aus 2017. Der 150er ist definitiv die beste Wahl aber die Wave 110 ist ein wahrer Sparfuchs und so mager, dass sie schon wieder liebenswert wird.

[@benpinter1988]

Cool bike! I wish we could get a new small Honda for $1000 in the US but we pay 3-4x for small cc bikes here. Honda really did put that 110cc in everything. Not fast but good torque for such a small motor. I have the JA10E fuel injected version in a NBC110C Super Cub.

[@SmallBikeStuff]

I wish we could get these in my country too! New Zealand is devoid of underbone style bikes and it’s a bit of a shame.

[@muhdfaris6210]

Yeah man love this, i got wave ultimo,got 125cc, but i already modified it to 60 size piston, love from malaysia bro

[@SmallBikeStuff]

Wow! That must be an awesome bike to ride. My wave only has 56mm.

[@SamSep01]

Dude I really2 wanna see you try one of those "Rempit" bikes on a Malaysian highway. Like one of those Victor 150cc 2 strokes. It'd be really fun to see you ride it haha

[@SmallBikeStuff]

Hahaha yes! I would love too. I’ve seen them racing before but I’ve not been a part of it yet. Hopefully on my next trip to Malaysia!

[@Simonpocarroll]

We ( SBBA tour ) hired some brand new Wave 125's in Laos for a tour, they took some massive abuse and other than the odd puncture and a few smashed indicators they took it all, impressive bikes indeed!

[@SmallBikeStuff]

I watched in earnest from afar at that trip. Looked amazing - all of the SBBA ones look amazing. The world needs more Honda Waves thats for sure!

[@zzztidurvirus]

Cool review on Wave Alpha! Maybe next time youre in malaysia, you can try the Yamaha Y15zr / Y16zr (yes I know Exciter 155 VVA is the same as Y16zr here in MY) and Honda RS150 / RSX for your next long adventure.

[@SmallBikeStuff]

Definitely - I would love to ride one of the 150's. They're awesome bikes.

[@darthazua]

Wow nice rempit. Welcome to Malaysia. My smallest bike is scooter honda spacy with minor upgraded. Current top speed is 115 km/h. Extra 5 from standard 😂. I love it, very reliable, easy to carry many stuff than mophet. Unfortunately because it just a scooter, she never leave Kuala Lumpur. Honda wave is better choice for travelling long distance.

[@SmallBikeStuff]

Spacy is still a great bike - I'd happily ride it long distance. It would be fun. Any bike is a good bike if you like riding it.

ADV160 - awesome choice!

Ich hoffe der kommt nach Europa

[@TeddyRSS1666]

The all new honda wave 110 fuel injection, in penisula malaysia (semenanjung malaysia) the brand new price are rm5000++ while in east malaysia (sabah, sarawak) the brand new price are rm6000++. The cheap, reliable, easy to use and easy to maintance underbone moped motocycle, in malaysia we call it kapcai. There also cheapest kapcai but qualiti are not good, all new modenas kriss that are rebadge from china brand, and many other china brand in malaysia price are under rm5000++. Latest yamaha and honda kapcai are good quality. The best.

[@SmallBikeStuff]

Interesting about the price difference between East and West Malaysia but I guess it makes sense due to the extra distance they travel from the factory. Thank you for commenting!

[@TeddyRSS1666]

@@SmallBikeStuff yes, the price different factor are the cost. If i am not wrong boon siew honda, dealer of honda motocycle in malaysia and hong leong yamaha, dealer of yamaha motocycle in malaysia plant are at penisular malaysia, in sabah and sarawak only have the dealer.

Same here! I am sure I will. Hopefully on the next trip to Malaysia.

[@ThisnametaKenny]

Nice road to ride.

[@SmallBikeStuff]

The whole 2,600KM on this bike was awesome!

[@domenik8339]

What do you think the reason is that Honda doesn't bring these bikes to the US? Is it just Honda trying to protect their more expensive sales here (when people go to buy a Honda they expect to spend 4-10K USD.) We have a huge growing market for budget bikes, like our more popular Chinese imported bikes for 1.5-2.5K are constantly being sold out. Makes me wonder why they don't bring this machine here, cause certainly people would buy it.

[@SmallBikeStuff]

What goes on in the brain of regional Honda minds is anyone’s guess. I’m from New Zealand and Honda ignores a tonne of eligible models that I think would do well here. I guess at the end of the day they stick with what they know and selling things like the Grom or the CT125 is Hondas belief they’re stepping up and bringing the wanted ‘overseas bikes’

[@domenik8339]

@@SmallBikeStuff I've heard from Honda workers it might have something to do with cultural issues about questioning leadership decisions but I don't know how accurate that is. It definitely feels weird that they're so picky about where they sell various bikes.

[@SmallBikeStuff]

@@domenik8339 Honda Thailand, Honda Malaysia, Honda Philippines - all the south East Asian entities are practically separate companies making a lot of their own decisions. I know Honda USA sources from the Thai entity so maybe getting bikes from their neighbouring honda factories would cause an uproar. Who knows - as I have learned with Honda in New Zealand; it’s impossible to figure out what they’ll do and when. Sometimes they make good decisions but often it produces some head scratching moments.

[@DobermannJeff]

In den USA kannst du die super cub kaufen. Im Grunde war die Wave eigentlich die Nachfolgerin der innova und danach kam die super cub. Die Wave wurde bei uns aufgrund Abgasnormen eingestellt. Inwiefern aber ein 8 Liter suv umweltfreundlicher ist keine Ahnung

[@Noor3368]

you need to step-up power.....try sym vf3 185 or rs150 or raider 150....but for low budget small cc kapcai is ok then.

[@SmallBikeStuff]

We like the struggle of using a basic bike for a long trip. It’s not a permanent purchase so we don’t have to live with the decision for long. I would love to ride a RS150 and especially the SYM 185. Great bikes!

[@chronophobic]

@@SmallBikeStuff i'd offer to show you my 185 if you're somewhere around KL/PJ

[@SmallBikeStuff]

I'm already gone this trip but I'll be back for sure!

[@tristan6509]

Wait, they still make em' carburated in malaysia? The indonesian version of this bike (revo fit/x) has been fuel injected for about a decade now And honda has not manufactured carburated bikes in a while here I was also surprised that they made 2 strokes until pretty recently in malaysia Here in indonesia the ninja 150RR/SS was discontinued in 2015

[@SmallBikeStuff]

Last 2 stroke was made in 2018 in Malaysia. These bikes can be fuel injected also. They have both. But this is the most basic option available.

Hi, may i suggest aveta ranger max for your adventure, its malaysian made 130cc and has 8 litre fuel tank and can go through harsh enviroment.

I've been interested in the Aveta Ranger Max for a while now. I saw a few in Malaysia but never got the chance to ride one on this trip.

[@traveling...mohammedalreth9632]

انت رائع استمر

[@ilovelimpfries]

You're definitely overpaid for that bike.

[@SmallBikeStuff]

Absolutely. $600USD is what it cost me, sold it for less. But still a cheaper overall spend than renting a bike for the same time period.
