The colour of the bike in different shades. But the best shade is orange and white also black and white is a good combination but orange and white is the best. Honda is good manufacturer of bikes AND SELL BIKES AT SUFFICIENT prices.
I have an 150R and still in great condition and I am happy to use it. As the mileage of the bike is good as compared with other bikes of 150R so I prefer teenagers should use it as it looks cooooool and its is a type of bike which the teenagers like to ride.
I use to go to school by bus but my parents asks me to go to school by self and asked me for the which I need to like to use for going to school. I searched alot on the internet then soon I found a good looking bike CBR 150R and I told my parents about the bike and prices of the bike soon my parents decided to bought the bike then we purchased the on 2nd jan 2015 and the condition of the bike is still good. The best thing about the bike is the control of the bike one day I was ride the bike at the speed of 115 then an car came from a side of the road then I imidiately use the disc brakes the bike slips but stop at the place before getting crashed with the car. Honestly speaking I learn to driving with this bike and I loved my biking experience It might be the smaller than the CBR 250R in size, engine capacity, price and positioning, but one thing is forsure—the CBR 150R certainly has a better exhaust note, particularly at idle. In terms of looks though, these are almost identical.
However, the 150R isn’t here as an alternative to the latter at a lesser price; it is here specifically to take on the Yamaha R15 and the KTM Duke 200. Being a clone of the bigger CBR, it does tick the right boxes in terms of visual appeal, so much so that its full fairing, chunky tyres and overall mass leads you to believe this one must be displacing more ccs than just 150.
Once you mount the motorcycle though, it’s instantly clear that the 150R is smaller and narrower than the 250R in dimensions, but still larger than say the Duke. The look and feel though is identical to the larger CBR — the clocks, the tank shape and even the riding position is similar. The quality though is better, even though we were disappointed by the choice of switchgear which is more like what you get on cheaper, more commuter-centric Honda bikes.
To really appreciate the 150R, however, one must ride it. The seating ergonomics isn't intense; it's still sporty, but one sits more upright asking less from the back and the rearsets positioning don’t threaten to tear your calf muscles either. Moreover, the seats aren’t overtly hard and the handlebar is anything but a stretch to reach; if at all, it’s just a tad narrow.The 150R's forte though is its dynamics — it feels light, precise and extremely communicative around a bend. You can place it in a corner where you want and how you want by just lightly feeding your inputs to the handlebar. There's lots of feedback from the chassis too and the tyres allows you to carry speed around a corner without scaring yourself. Braking too is very good — there's less bite initially, but when it comes in, it comes in hard and with so much feel and linear progression, you can get on the brakes hard and hold it there knowing exactly what the front tyre is doing.What we would have liked though, is a more refined engine. This single cylinder, liquid cooled and fuel injected engine starts off well from idle but the moment it hits the 6, 000rpm mark, vibrations begin to creep in. The harder you push from then on, the coarser it sounds. It’s an engine that packs all the fun right at the top of the rpm band, but lacks the free-revving nature that makes you want to exploit this high-strung characteristic of the engine.
There's however a clear step-up in performance past the 8, 000rpm mark and the pull continues till the engine hits the redline at 11, 500rpm, but to enjoy this performance you must tell yourself that it's OK to wring the life out of this engine even though it's not exactly willing. The shift quality of the 6-speed gearbox doesn't impress much either; it's not slick, doesn't have well-weighted shifts and is notchy.It’s the two-wheeled definition of déjà vu, this motorcycle. While we were shooting, a college kid on a CBR250R slowed to a halt and looked alternately at his bike and ours, trying to figure out what we were fussing over. He realised something was different, but couldn’t pinpoint it until he saw the ‘150R’ decal. And with an expression that said ‘I’ve been cheated’, he rolled away.
All he ever wanted was the cheapest fairing that said ‘CBR’. And that’s exactly what the newest Honda is – in more ways than one.
I’m not one for nitpicking, but the switchgear is straight off the Stunner. Hmm. What’s more, there’s no pass-beam switch – even 100cc commuters have that. I won’t even mention the looks, except the Repsol-wannabe paint job that is probably present to cash in on their MotoGP world title last year. And it doesn’t really manage to pull off the intended effect all that well in the flesh – just adding orange to white doesn't make you a factory rider. The other colours(green, in particular) look pretty good, though.
Swing a leg over the saddle and you immediately realise this is a bike even Dani Pedrosa would fit on. It’s a compact motorcycle, smaller indeed than its bigger sibling, but that doesn’t mean I find it wanting in the space department with my six feet worth of beer belly. What’s more, the CBR150R redeems itself somewhat when you twist the throttle in anger – and I mean, really twist it all the way back.
