anto Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Just saw one today at Big Wing Chiang Mai .B44,000 standard with extras advailable .It looks really cute and retro .Anyone buy one and what do you think of it ?It has a 110 cc engine with drum brakes front and back .Handy that the rear suspension has a lever adjustment for passanger .

BlackArtemis Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Really? Cause I was excited when I heard about it, but saddened when I saw it. It's only a cub in name. a 12v 125cc swapped KA will run you less than the new one, look better, and you can throw on a front disc easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wantan Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Guess thats why its called "Dream Super Cub". Looks like a "Dream" made retro. I wold prefer a Ryuka or even a Tiger "Cub". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anto Posted June 14, 2013 Author Share Posted June 14, 2013 I think that they could have made it more retro looking ( by putting old style blinkers for one ) yet kept the front disc brake . I am still thinking of buying one though ,as a back up bike . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loserlazer Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 I am in a honda dealer now to put back stock parts to cbr250 and between honda dream and new honda cub, there is really no difference. Both same. Only difference is the stickers and name. I liked new honda cub. Thinking of replacing my old wave 125 x with it.

Pinot Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 What's the marketing thought here? It has a retro look, kind of funky but, is this any more than just different plastic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its just a way of making extra monery .It sells for about B5000 more than the Dream ,then they sell accesories to go with it to also make money .

Chicken George Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Well all this retro is ok if it has something practical to offer other than just a fake retro look. The club cross looks smart but if intended to use off road as in up muddy lanes then the why no clearance between front tyre and mud guard. Also it needs a proper clutch..

Sent from my GT-I9082 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app CTs have been used as off road bikes in Australia for a long time now. http://www.postiebikechallenge.org/gallery.htm Plenty of off road clips. I would love one of these Xclubs but don't think they will ever see Australia unless OZ Post starts buying them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats OK, i like the Dream too, you know i prefer cheap, simple bikes. My neighbour has an old Dream. Maybe 10-15 years old, maybe older. The old Dream looked really good imo. Better than nowadays.
