Boon Siew Honda officially launched the Honda Wave Alpha motorcycle in Malaysia today. The new kapcai is basically an improved version of the Honda Wave 110 that was introduced here in May 2013. “The Urban Dominator” comes with updated and sportier styling plus improved performance over its predecessor.
The 109.1 cc four-stroke OHC engine remains, but it now makes 8.43 PS at 7,500 rpm and 8.59 Nm of torque at 5,500 rpm. To compare, the old Wave 110 pushed out 7.67 PS and 8.32 Nm at 3,500 rpm. The Alpha has both kick and electric starters.
The four-speed constant mesh gearbox remains, along with identical gear ratios. Two versions of the Wave Alpha are available – one with spoke wheels and a front drum brake and one with cast wheels and a front disc brake. The latter weighs 98 kg with a full tank, one kg more than the drum brake version.
Boon Siew Honda highlights the following features: a “sporty contoured exhaust”, a “stylish leg shield”, the “cool and clear speedometer” and the underbone bike’s U-Box under the seat. “We believe the all-new Wave Alpha with its overall impressive performance and design will win the hearts of many Malaysian motorcyclists,” said Koji Onishi, the company’s MD and CEO.
Buyers can choose from three colours – Pearl Magellanic Black, Vivacity Red and Pearl Metalloid White – and enjoy a two-year or 20,000 km manufacturer warranty. Prices start from RM4,133 for the drum brake/spoke wheels version and RM4,557 for the disc brake/cast wheels bike, with GST.
Outside of the launch hall, Boon Siew Honda displayed a “racing version” of the Wave Alpha, which is not for sale. The tricked out bike has no headlamp and meter, and sports aftermarket suspension and exhaust systems, among other things. Small gallery below the main one.

all the rempits orgasm already
This has more power, more handling and more fuel saving than the Iriz.
Proton’s power and handling are just pure Sendiri Cakap Sendiri Syok. So much talked, very few units sold.
Mr. Same LOrrrr, why must you always relate Proton to everything? I admit that Proton may have bad reputation in their QC, FC and etc, but that negative attitude of yours is kind of annoying. All you ever know is throwing your tantrums relating every single thing to Proton.
Do you even know the meaning of irony?
How can a car manufacturer improve their products if pessimists only ridiculing them and give no ideas on how they can improve the products? Every car manufactures have issue with their products. Perhaps, Proton have a lot, but can people actually help them improve instead of ridiculing each other?
Furthermore, Why in the world did you relate car and motorcycle?
I’m sorry if you feel rather angry. Still, no hard feelings.
Agree and no problem to help them improve…but can they help us to by reducing the imported car tax too?
– I Have Just Added A Comment –
If Proton would improve based on public feedback, Proton would be on par with Ferrari already, considering last time the whole nation has so much hope on it (now only an old man).
I am not bashing Proton. I am just educating others (especially the young generation) not to fall in its deceptive trap created by the Proton fanboys Sendiri Cakap Sendiri Syok. An Iriz is not cheap after all, don’t spend money inviting troubles.
toksah layan dia.
treat Same L0rrrr like an unofficial opposition for proton..
Mana “mat rempit” version lagi cepat lagi best
models be dreamin…. ” now kapchai launch…. Future….. Geneva!…. Shanghai motor show pun jadi la….”
I ride bike, the girls can ride on me !
Rempits will be choosing between this kapcai or the iphone 6s plus… maybe the latter can impress minahs more

the alpha wave speed only capable until 90km/h, speed more than that the engine sound serious heavy or will gong.
so far the design are pretty and everythings were good. this motor recommended for parents who think to buy a motor for their own kids currently study at upper secondary school, the speed limitations 90km/h causing them wont able to rempit =p
Lol that’s true dude,I have rode this motorcycle for 3 month already and if I go over than 60kmph my engine makes a huge sound that about to explode lmao. What if I keep continue speeding and will it causes damages to the engine?
Reminds me to Yamaha SS2
