SD, the Madass has a few advantages, half decent suspension if soft in front, discs front and rear which I really like. If I build this machine it needs to be freeway capable, not that I intend to use it on the freeway much but that means being able to sit on 100km /60mph and also stop from that speed.

90 km/hr is my normal cruising speed but occasionally I need more.

The seat height is the main problem, moving the seat down and forward would gain maybe 4" /100mm with a FF position but it's still tall.

The CT110 is much better in this concern. Mechanically.... suspension, brakes and manual 4 speed I like the Madass ... but height wise the Honda is better .

It's a bit of a problem!

The Symba 100 looks like a Honda 90 clone .... are there any differences ?
