New Honda Wave 110i with PGM-FI launched in Thailand
Honda has just revealed a new PGM-FI “cub” bike in Thailand. The new Honda Wave 110i joins its bigger engined sibling, the Honda Wave 125i in the Thai market, which has already been around for quite some time. Here in Malaysia our Honda Waves are still carburetted, but maybe Honda will introduce them soon to match their all-new “green” image, as the Honda franchise here has been taken over by the Japanese themselves.
The 110cc 4-stroke engine with PGM-FI fuel injection is said to be 18% more economical than the unit installed in the Honda Wave 100. At the same time it also provides 25% more power. It can use gasohol E20, a fuel that is sold in Thailand at the pumps.
The new Honda Wave is available in 3 series and 8 designs and colours. Features include a key shutter for the ignition, and easy starting without the need of a fuel choke thanks to the PGM-FI sytem. The bike either has disc brakes or drum brakes depending on the variant you pick. It goes for 34,000 Thai baht onwards.

Nice looking kapchai but could be better.
Throw in alloy wheels instead of the spokes and monoshock at the rear will be perfect. The kick-starter looks so ugly jutting out, should be made less conspicious.
Hate the ugly looking long rear mudguard. What’s with the criss-cross tyre thread design at the rear? Any good on tarmac at fast turn ins/outs?
But like I say, a nice looking kapchai but could be better!

Will an injection bike be more expansive than a normal carb bike in terms of maintainance?
Paul Tan says: This is a good question. I will research.

Paul, save your time n energy. I’ve done it for you guys. Let me ask you this.
A fuel-injected car vs a carburetted one. Which maintenance cost is higher? Both are almost the same provided you take good care of them.
As for bikes, the answer’s the same. A fuel-injected bike might even give you better fuel savings. All this provided that the workshop you send to service your bike have the proper diagnostic tool, as the ones you find in car workshops. Always service your bike/car at the recommended service intervals as stated in the manual. You take care of it, it’ll take care of you.
Happy biking!

Will the 110i have enough power to carry two adults(approx.115 kg.)? Is the seat storage enough to hold two helmets? What does that price(approx.) 34,000 baht include? What else should I pay for(e.g. insurance, registration, etc.)?
Is there any price competition here in Pattaya?

As you mentioned above, Boon Siew Honda Sdn Bhd will bring in Wave 110. So may i know that whether the engine using fuel-injection or carburetted?
How much the price will sold in Malaysia?When they will lauch for this model?
Thanks for your co-operation.
