digbeth Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 Haven't seen much mentioned here of the Honda Lead, despite the tiny rear wheel that's purposefully done to get the roomy underseat storage, having tried one for size, the handlebar height and width fits bigger size person like us blokes better than various (not current year) Honda clicks or the typical Thai scooters, having no problem with handlebar hitting my knee unlike click or scoopy not sure if it's styled like the previous Sh150 and fits european rider better on purpose but it's a good alternative to PCX and doesn't cost as much not sure how the tiny rear wheel would handle with grocery loaded into that vast underbox and missus on pillion though Anyone here bought one?

scubascuba3 Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 I was thinking of getting one rather than a Click, sounds like the riding position is more similar to PCX than a Click? for me the Click riding position is perfect, PCX I don't like at all Is it as fast away from lights as a Click?

I guess I will not fit in what you are referring to by "us blokes with bigger size". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agusts Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Honda Lead is the most popular scooter in South and Central America and many other countries, going back 20 years..., it was just not sold here in Thailand until recently..., the ones sold here now are manufactured in Vietnam..., I was at Honda main shop in Phuket Town, they had truck loads of it coming and going, the guy said they become very popular..., I guess Thais just discovered it....! Yes, the only draw back are those small wheels, and pot holes, it can handle the weight... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first 2 stroke ones were the first Japanese automatic scooters officially sold in Thailand too, but seem not to take hold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
