Yeah that's got to be the decider if price isn't the most important. No need for a manual bike anymore but thais seem to like them

[BritManToo]

Had both .........

Click 125i was too heavy for my 15yo daughter to control.

She was fine on a Wave 110 though.

 

Now she's older (22) and riding a Click 150

I did think about adding rhetorical!

Seven-of-one

half-a-dozen of the other.

Hondas are the scooter of choice in Thailand. Yamahas are usually cheaper, and IMO just as good. The power of advertising.

Well, "You meet the nicest people on a Honda".  Yama or Yamarāja, is a deity of death.  (At least the Yamaha TZ750 flat tracker would have been if it wasn't banned.) 

[fredscats]

Step thru/step over     Waves will be stronger bike  engine transmission all in one,Clicks have the plastic pan that seperates

   New Clicks look good,fatter wheels /tyres ,body panels bulge more too

Never knew that, you've added to my education.

My Yamaha TTX is 16 yo, hasn't missed a beat. Still only 25,000 km on the odometer. Very possible it will outlive me.

what made me think i should not have asked that question, glad to see nothing has changed on this site, the usual idiotic replies, in answer to one question i have no idea what his friends ride, he was wanting a 110cc. and to the clowns on here i ride a Yamaha Aerox 155 and a BIG BIKE lol bye have a nice day.

[Adiudon]

Ive got both, a 10 year old Wave 110i and a 9 year old Click 110i and I would choose the Wave everyday, it is far more reliable, has a lot better fuel consumption and is more stable, spare parts are cheaper for the Wave too.

For me the 'cargo space' of the step thru design on the click is indispensable. We can fit the weekly shop in there in an ikea bag. That alone sways it for me. We have a filano but same same.

Some of us are quite happy to answer or help. The key is to ignore the idiotic or non relevant replies. 

[VocalNeal]

Just thinking that maybe in a 15 year old's eyes. Gears are for guys, automatic is for girls?

 

Life is complex when you are impressionable.

Same for me, and it means I can carry not only the shopping, but occasionally the big packs of water nestled between my legs on the "cargo space".

 

Another bonus for me is the fact that the design of the Click means that water from the road doesn't get thrown up onto my feet and legs, whereas I believe it does on the Wave.

Well you've answered one question yourself, right here. You say this young lad is wanting a 110cc. Under 18 yrs I'm guessing? Anyway that's the Click off the table because it's a 125cc. (or 150cc just to keep the pedantic ones off my back)

 

You'll have to look among the smaller scooters. Happy hunting.

It's a good thought. E bikes and trikes are becoming popular in our village. I've seen at least 5 new ones in recent months and I spotted a big new showroom for them when I was up in town earlier this week. It's the way to go.

Scrwu Crick.

Get a Wave 125.

Top model B56K.

That is what you should buy.

Only if you have no taste, are a Karen, are Woke, your first name is Greta, or believe all the BS promulgated by the EV industry.

I have both too, a 3 year old Wave 110 and a 16 year old 110 Click. 

The Wave is a bit agricultural but solid. No faults except battery has gone, I kick start it until I get round to ordering new one on Lazada. 

The Click has been great, used to put it in the back of pickup on the family hols. 

Most things have been replaced over the years, injection unit, brakes, battery. It still has braking issues, but every year passes the annual inspection....!

Click definitely  easier to ride and much better acceleration. I rarely get on it these days as wife hates the Wave, never come to terms with gears. 

Before this my daily ride was a Honda Sonic, but coerced into selling it to one of the family. Shame...

One number electric bike fans should remember is 746. The number of watts in a HP. 

So on the above website most motorbikes have a 1000W motor which is 1.3hp and the really super (sic) ones have 2000W which is 2.7hp.

To put this in perspective the old mopeds (yes needs pedals to be called a moped) were around 1.5hp.

If anyone lives near hills the electric ones don't have pedals to help up hills.

This whole idea that petroleum is derived from ancient bio-mass

is without foundation.

Petroleum is formed in the mantle of the earth

then oozes up

since it is less dense that rock.

Titan, the Earth-sized planet of Saturn

Has 100x more hydrocarbons than Earth.

Derived from dinosaurs or algae?

C'mon man ... .

Yes I do, but those fumes are not consistantly in my face and causing excessive noise pollution everywhere I walk daily.  

Thailand uses over 60% natural gas in their power plants, which are regulated for NOx and out of the city with tall stacks that pollute way less than hundreds of cars and motorcycles on every street in every city

 

ICE cars and motor bikes are in reality forcing you to breath their exhaust and listen to their noisy exhaust every time they go down a road you are on.  So air and noise pollution at same time

 

Nothing I use in my home is polluting other peoples lives directly in this way AFAIK
