I owned a Wave alpha 2022 carburetor version before and that bike is abit gutless. Top speed is about 100kmh on the meter, which means it's only about 90kmh on GPS. Not sure about the roads in Sabah, but here in KL where there are alot of highways, i don't feel comfortable with that speed.

Bought a used 2012 LC135 last year for 3k and slowly fixed it up. Cost me about 3k in repairs so far; Changed engine block, brake system, & wear and tear. Standard condition lc135 can top out about 120kmh on the meter, mine can go about 130kmh. If you're looking for an auto clutch bike, nothing beats the LC135 in terms of power.

But if you don't mind the power, the wave 110 alpha is ok too. My dad still uses it and it has proven to be reliable considering how my dad always forget to do regular maintainence on it. OCI sometimes go above 6 month/5k km, tire pressure always at 10-20psi lol, you get the drill. But after all that abuse, the bike still starts and run
