Workhorse. Looks to me like a clone of a Honda Wave 125.
I guess it's "built" to haul some really heavy loads. Is it me or is one rear shock bent?
I would agree with that, SE Asia has so many Chinese wave Colones that it is not uncommon for people to come moto tour and just buy a wave for the trip. There is the most interesting market of used waves just running tours around
Yup. Been there, done that :) Although, if you come in as a Westerner, I do recommend buying a genuine Honda. The hassles your save yourselves compared to the cheap Chinese clones are worth the "premium".
Mind you, you can buy good used bikes for well below 500 USD. A new Wave 110i is just under 1100 USD in Thailand.
