Honda ADV 160 Versus Click 160, Pros And Cons Of These Scooters in English.

  • I spend a month riding the Honda ADV 160 and the Honda Click 160 in and around Pattaya, Thailand. Using these scooters for everyday use and light travel, I've determined that both are excellent options for different reasons. Which one is better? Answering that question is my mission in this video.
    Both of these are excellent motorbikes from Honda at a reasonable price.
    Both of these scooters are brand new; I'm the first rider on both.
    Mr. Deen, in Pattaya, Thailand, has at least two new 2023 Clicks available to rent.

    Having ridden both I agree with his assessment.
    BUY CLICK FOR
    - travel close to home
    - Low Speeds/ Heavy traffic
    BUY ADV FOR
    - LONGER RIDES
    - HIGHER SPEEDS / MORE STABILITY
    - LESS TRAFFIC

    Thank you for the great ENGLISH comparison! I retire to Bohol Philippines in a few months. I'm probably going to go for the Click 160. Adding a quality adjustable shock to the back is cheap. I want the flat floor for hauling things back from the market. I'll also add a 45 liter top box to the back for even more storage. The ADV is a nicer bike, but not $1,000 nicer when I can get the Click to do what I want for $150 worth of add-ons. As for ABS. I've been riding motorcycles from 1100cc to 90cc for 50 years now and never had ABS, or crashed due to poor braking. I'll get by with the combi brakes :) Ride safe!
    It would be really sweet if you could borrow a Honda Airblade 160 and let us know what you think of it. It's the price of a Click, has ABS, and bigger under seat storage than the Click.

    • @JakeSnowLiveSimple
      @JakeSnowLiveSimple  8 місяців тому +4

      You're welcome! I've seen Airblades in Vietnam; I've never seen one in Thailand. I was recently in Vietnam, the Airblade looks like a Click 160 with the fuel tank up front instead of under the seat, so it has much more under-seat storage. I imagine the performance between the Click and Airblade is very similar. It's interesting both Click and Airblade are available in the Philippines.
      I know what you mean about the ABS. It seems funny to ride 15 hp motorbikes with ABS and traction control. Lol 👊🏼

    Really helped me with researching which scooter to go for in Cambodia . I really had the click 160 as strong contender but think this video has convinced me its the ADV160. I know I want to be able to tackle some out of city roads, a little off road and some pillion carrying. The dual shocks , not bottoming out, better braking and better rear view mirror have sealed the deal for the ADV. The final tick in the box is the great storage , the ability to stow a helmet even two helmets away is a real bonus . The one trade off is the little loss of zipping in and out of traffic, the ADVs wider bars and extra 17kg bigger bike feel will mean a bit more caution patience required. That said I will be new to riding in such a Phnom Penh and so will be finding my feet and slowly building skill and experience and confidence so probably will be taking the progressive riding asy for a while . I am already thinking night just have to have an older Click 125 hanging about as a second bike for those heavy traffic local journeys ?? . Thanks for the great comparison video , Now will it be new or pre used , let me think 😉😉

    In stock form (creature comforts, ride, tech) the ADV 160 is nice compared to the Click 160, but if we're talking ease of customizability and performance tuning a Click 125 (not 160) has a wider range of aftermarket parts here in Asia.

This is exactly the video I was hoping to find. Any chance there is a way to raise the suspension an inch or so for extra clearance? Wondering what mod options there are. Would you only bring it to an authorized Honda shop for repairs? When I was in 'nam it was well known that the shops there would take original parts and replace them.

    Great review! The Click isn’t sold stateside but I’d go with the ADV160 anyway. Unfortunately in the States the dealers are not getting too many ADV160’s and the mark up is high so with tax, license and mark up you’re looking at $6k-$8k. Also not the nicest color options. Test drove the outgoing ADV150 and didn’t like the overall feel of bulkiness and the wide handlebars compared to my 2010 Honda Elite 110cc (Lead in other countries).
    It’s really nice to lane split the Elite in stopped CA traffic. Because it only can go 50MPH it’s perfect for congested city streets but not highway legal which is fine. I don’t want to go any faster on 2 wheels let alone a small scooter. The Elite is so nimble it’s almost like being on an e-bike but it gets 110MPG, no waiting to charge it and much faster. They only sold the Elite in 2010 and it didn’t sell well because of the recession and low gas prices back then. I use it for food delivery and it looks and runs like new. Unfortunately it’s much more dangerous being on 2 wheels in the states because of all the dangers on our roads I won’t get into because thats another topic completely.

Yesterday a dump truck passed in my lane and gave me 3 feet, I could have touched it when it went by, and there was a ditch to my right. North America at least has rules, even if drivers are often oblivious. Riders die at an alarming rate here, and most don't wear a helmet.

    I have a click 150 and a adv 160. I love the combi brakes on the click. And man you point it and it will go I'm very impressed with it's handling. Obviously the adv is a better bike. I have flogged the flea's out of it since I've had it, On road and off road. I hope the suspension softens up a little bit soon. But in saying that I have bottomed out the front end quite a few times. Everyone talks about the adjustable window, it's no big deal. The headlights are great and a 20ltr water bottle fits in the front step though just nice. I wanted a 350 but after thinking about it I think the 350 is too wide for children to sit comfortably and too high for the little ones to get on easy and realistically for me going to the shop for 20lt of water. Too hand getting on a 350 and taking it of the stand whilst holding the water is to much. I will bypass getting the adv 350 and get a xadv 750.

      Those clicks are always fun to ride. So many good scooters to choose from here in Thailand. The new X ADV 750 is the coolest looking scooter. It's such a beast to handle in this hot congested Pattaya traffic but a blast on open road. I was at Big Wing Honda today, the sales rep said 7-8 months wait if a person orders today.

      Going from a Click 125 to an ADV 160 is a very nice upgrade. The ride experience is night and day. Long distant rides are much more enjoyable and safer on the ADV compared to the Click.

    I have been tossing up between the 160 and 350, as I live in Chiangmai and use a PCX 150 I will probably go with the ADV 160 makes sense.
    Question, does the hazard lights work the same on the ADV160 when braking as they do on the 350?
    Good quick reviews:-)

    • @JakeSnowLiveSimple
      @JakeSnowLiveSimple  Рік тому +3

      Yes, the ADV 160 does have the Automatic hazard lights that come on when hard braking at 50km/h (31mph) or faster. The ADV 350 hazards activated every time I was hard braking. The ADV 160 hazards were much more difficult to activate under similar braking conditions.
      The ADV 350 did feel more planted while braking hard due to its larger mass, encouraging more aggressive braking, which would explain the different experiences between the two.

    Need to buy a scooter, for sure it`s a Honda. Either the Click (called Varrio in Indonesia) , PCX or ADV. There`s a lot of traffic here and I`m afraid of getting stuck on the tight roads with traffic, where i can slip through easily so far.
    Any recommendations on that? The price difference here is surprisingly small, the ADV is not even 600$ more expensive. Of course, It`s the same 160 engine, but the ADV is much more scooter.
