Re: Honda CBR 150 R
I stand 5'8" too. There's no problem with the seating position its way more comfortable than R15. My cousin owns R15 2.0 and he always get shoulder and back ache whenever we go on roadtrips however I am always comfortable with no pain. He envy me and always say CBR was a great decision. CBR has quite impressive handling in city. Just the high rpm gear shifting is where R15 takes over CBR in city traffic.

I have another question. I'm about 5'8". Would I have a problem with the seat height? . I just checked it... And its around 1,120 mm.
I'm quite comfortable with the r15 which has a saddle height of 800mm. Will the cbr be to high for me to handle in city traffic?Last edited by kush013; 10-02-2016, 01:05 AM.Leave a comment:

Btw, i just heard that the maintenance cost of the cbr150 is quite high, and some parts cost even more than the cbr 250! Is it true? And how is the parts availability?[/QUOTE]Originally posted by kush013 View Post----consecutive posts auto-merged-----
Go for it Dude. I recently saw Red Black Color at the showroom. IT was spicy.
Parts availability was never an issue for me. I ride around 10000 kms/year and the mainainance cost goes around 3000-4000/year. FYI CBR 250 spares costs more than that of 150. So chill. Go for AMC you'll save some money. The wear and tear depends on the road conditions and your riding skills.

2 years ago I asked my service advisor to change my switchgears with the one that comes with CBR250. But he turned me down saying its too complicated and will void the warranty. So i kept as it is. I guess the new CBR150 has it.Originally posted by kush013 View Post

OEM brake pads comes around Rs 685 for front and around Rs 600 for rear. The OEM pads are incredibe. Don't go for any cheaper one. At the end of the day its a life saver.Originally posted by bala13 View PostLast edited by AnkushRK; 09-30-2016, 11:25 PM.Leave a comment:

CBR 150 is still on sale and is a great buy. I am using it from 4 yrs and is still a pleasure to ride bike. Yamaha R15 1.0/2.0 feels like Kinetic Luna after riding CBROriginally posted by kush013 View PostLeave a comment:

Re: Honda CBR 150 R
To get the high beam flasher, and the engine kill switch do we need to buy the switch gear from outside or the Honda dealership will get it? And is the mod very complicated? And will it void the warranty?Leave a comment:

I Agree... the CBR looks better.. though it lacks the low end torque.... but the CBR does attract more eyesOriginally posted by kush013 View Post

Re: Honda CBR 150 R
Well, if you like CBR150R, then do go for it. You have Honda's reliable engine. You can always order spares directly from Honda. Also, as per rule, company has to manufacture the spares till 8 yrs of discontinuation of that model.Originally posted by kush013 View PostLeave a comment:

Re: Honda CBR 150 R
I have test rode the r15 v2, but the pillion seat is almost non existent on that. The r15s has a good pillion seat, but it looks like the supersports bike upfront and a commuter from rear. In this purely my opinion. The cbr is betters in the looks department!Originally posted by chidafn View PostLeave a comment:

Re: Honda CBR 150 R
CBR250R is still being produced. Honda have no plans to replace 250R. Now, regarding your query, have you tried R15S or R15V2? They are good bikes with great demands in market. R15 have few problems like too much aggressive seating position and low service intervals.Originally posted by kush013 View PostLeave a comment:

Re: Honda CBR 150 R
Hello guys!
Can anyone tell me if this bike is easily available in showrooms in Kolkata, or their is some huge waiting period? And also, is the CBR150R a sensible buy now? Will the production stop as that of the CBR250R?
I'M planning to buy this bike next month! Please suggest!Leave a comment:
