Re: Honda CBR 150 R

What grade (15w50, 10w30 etc) and type of honda oil (mineral or semi synthetic or synthetic?)
Engine flushing is very simple and DIY. You get an engine flushing liquid which you can pour in the engine and keep it for few hours and then drain the oil, after that change the oil. This is generall done when changing from synthetic oil to mineral.

Bad gear shift occurs especially when theres fault in the engine (can be wrong grade of oil, worn out oil etc)

Do you see any smoke from the exhaust, if not then dont worry, wont b a too big issue.
Engine does become too rough and harsh if an entirely wrong grade of oil used.

1. The buzz sound is created by the fuel pump and its normal. The buzz was present till 2000 kms for me and it comes sometimes now and then. It will not be audible if u wear a helmet, traffic, and touring. The SVC guys ripped u a lot of money by telling that they changed pumps. Its the characteristic of the fuel pump.

2. Check all the screws are well tightened.

3. This was present in all CBR150R `s. Lots of false gears and even gear stuck issues, but only in first 3 gears. Even after 10k kms, I still face gear getting struck up but its not happening always.

4. Its not a issue. It`s the nature of the engine. You cant change that.

SVC`s are useless. The roadside mechanics can give u solution instead of those CBR engineers in SVC. (The amount of good mechanics is very low in Honda SVC)

Since you got a bad mindset about the bike from the beginning you will never enjoy the bike.

Selling the bike is the oly option.(ITs really hard to do that. I cant sell the bike after just investing 1.5L). You could have researched a little more before purchasing.

P.S: Every bike has cons and pros. For me the riding position and the switchgears were the real concern after buying the bike. But I learnt to overcome it.

Re: Honda CBR 150 R

Rahulyo, please don't listen to anyone who says get your bike checked outside, there might be very good mechanics but HONDA will definitely void your warranty and you'll be in even more shit.

I rode on the highway today and had a very bad experience, one nut of the right rear view mirror came off while riding. Disappointing. I love the engine though, it opened up a bit today, no vibes for at all for me, but then mine is new.

Also, that buzz sound, I didn't understand tht, now tht mulli84 mentioned, tht's FI dude. It's present in my bike frm the first day, you should have researched more. It goes after 3k fr some people. Read this entire thread man, wealth of information.

Re: Honda CBR 150 R

First things first, as i said im no cbr expert, i tell the things from my experience. Hence i may not be 100% correct. But forget the SVC. Honda svc just know how to make money.
"look at the cbr 150 there, we will screw up his engine and then rip the money out of him" thats what they may do.
Just do 2 things:
1) Engine flushing (google it for the right liquid to be used and then buy from an automobile shop or online) generally comes for 300 bucks.
2) change the oil (i recommend motul as the brand) for the grade, check the manual.
If issue persists, there is something called fuel injector cleaner, comes for around 400 bucks. Use that as the last resort.
Still issue persists, sell the bike to me. I will happily buy it.

Re: Honda CBR 150 R

Sorry about that rahul for telling you to service outside. You should service in the Honda showroom till the warranty or you will void the warranty.

And about that screw coming off, I and some owners of this bike had this exact same problem(right RVM top screw). It came off and got lost before 1000 kms. And when I asked the SVC to put new screw, they said no stock(Gosh it is a screw, the most common part of a bike and they don't stock them). I finally got some screw from my house and fixed it)

Re: Honda CBR 150 R

Warranty? What warranty? Warranty that they will loot you? I have a honda stunner too and know what kind of people are there at honda svc. One of the so called engineer remove the rubber above the airbox and was referring it as "filter" and said its faulty. i literally asked him "who hired you?"

Re: Honda CBR 150 R

Bhangarwala more educated thn HONDA service center eng. They are totally non-sense , useless humans (?) . They only know how to make money from customers by telling bullshit.

I also have Yamaha Fazer . After free servicing i never go back to Yamaha SVC . Always servicing it from outside (Use motul in it) .

I want to admit that Yamaha SVC guys have better knowledge thn Honda SVC . If problem arises at least they knw how to resolve it . Not like Honda SVC who up hands if some problem arise. Yamaha bike quality is far far better then Honda. My Fazer completed 3 yrs, never face problems like rattling sound, pick up , gear shifting .

The biggest problem in Honda is the availability of parts. i wait fuel pump n gear shifter for 3-4 months . If u unable to produce the parts thn y the f*k u launch bikes ?

Re: Honda CBR 150 R

Mulli, can you explain me the buzz sound you guys are talking about. There is a buzz in my bike when I switch on the ignition. (for 3-4 seconds whilst the console shows/does all its premilinary checks). Do you guys get the buzz sound even after that?
If no, then that's perfectly normal. Its the Fuel Pump and FI module doing their job during startup. Happens to me even after 36k kms and that's absolutely normal.

Re: Honda CBR 150 R

Buzzing sound is come after start the bike . It is like alarm (sound like puuuuuuuuuuuuu from fuel tank , engine). This sound remain till bike on .

Re: Honda CBR 150 R

Ya dude its fuel pump. You can hear it in all FI bikes. And when turing on ignition,you hear it because pump primes the fuel and it is also self check for pump.
In cbr150R it is little bit loud,so you hear it even when riding or when engine is on. Some design flaw causing resonance I guess. Also please keep enough fuel all times, above 1 bar atleast. If its less,pump is working hard to pressurise the fuel. So more sound and it may damage pump in long run.
So nothing to worry. Just try to fix the vibes and start loving the machine

Re: Honda CBR 150 R

Lots of CBR 150 users suggests here that this bike need to rev hard/high . So i decided to rev hard/high(6000-7000 rpm), But my decision turns into nightmare . At morning i try to rev it hard Bike vibrates like hell and black smoke start coming from the exhaust . So i turn off the bike and wait some time then try to start the bike but bike refuse to start. After lots of trying it get start .

Anyone face this issue ?

Re: Honda CBR 150 R

Dude, for god's sake dont do anything till you change the engine oil. Black smoke means the piston rings gone. Please change the oil ASAP and if the issue persists, you may be able to claim the 5 years of warranty on engine (honestly i have no idea if you get it on cbr or not, but i got a 5 year warranty on engine and 1 year on other parts for my stunner)
Plus the advantage is you have all the service records. Agar zyada hua then shoot a mail with the whole issue showing extreme dissatisfaction to the higher authorities of honda. It really helps. You may start getting calls from the ASC to get the bike repaired.

Re: Honda CBR 150 R

Yes i took 5yrs warranty on CBR . Will going to SVC 2morrow morning. Lets c what will happens ?

Can u give me higher authority mail id pls ?

Re: Honda CBR 150 R

@rahulyo- You need to go to the SVC urgently, I guess my point tht you need to maintain your warranty has proved itself.

Also, 6-7k rpm is not high! I think you might have been lugging the engine if you think tht is high for Cbr after one year of riding it, this is also why you might be facing problems, lugging affects the engine negatively. People with more knowledge can tell you why it does, I can only tell you tht it does. Baby Blade hits 11.5 where limiter cuts in, and it can do so without trouble, mine does, although it screams when it does, I like tht.

High rpm would be anything above 8-9k. I cruise at around 7k right now, bike feels relaxed there, after first service it go even higher as I have been going a little easy, once I hit high rpm regularly, I think 8k will be good for cruising.
