      Congrats Manikantan.
      Welcome to the Baby CBR club!!
      Where you from? and the details of your booking (OTR price, Colour, Waiting period)?
      The limiter kicks in @11,500 rpm just within a second after the first shift..And, that's where the fun begins !! ;)

              My first post! I'm from Chennai.

              Black with Candy Palm Green. 1800 Kms in ODO (daily 65 km ) .
              Mileage 43 km-pl (Full tank method)
              Achieved Top speed: 138 (little below 10500 RPM)

              couldn't red line or even touch the rev-limiter (11500) in top gear. Anybody could?

                  Yes tried 3 times. Before first service 1 time and after that 2 times. Getting 43-45!

                  Might be because of highway ride (Tambaram to M-city, Chengalpet)

                        Yes Full tank to full tank method. It's been my habit to fill tank and ride to reserve.

                          That's a great plan! Lets try and do this with a good cam so we can make wallpapers outta the pics..



                          My Red-White CBR will be with me soon, lets plan up with some more Bangalore boys for the four-colour photoshoot..



                          138kmph? Damn cool! I managed to hit 134kmph on the test ride bike within a short distance. A longer stretch should see 140+kmph I think. The tuner Joel, also my friend, from RaceConcepts has begun working on performance mods. He said his mods will make the power delivery on the 150R much more balanced (the bike is quite peaky right now) and has promised performance that can leave a 250R in the dust!

                          Will install these parts post 5000km on ODO.
                          Is there any facebook CBR owners Bangalore club sort of? It would be fun to organise some long distance tours. Hope to shoot a video on HD of my babe cruising past 145Kmph if at all we can achieve the same

                          • I am having issues with my bike...

                            After a ride when I m parking my bike I get a burning smell. I dont why its caused.. I took my bike to Service Center last week to correct the gear shift problem that I was having.. The mechanic said my clutch was loose and he corrected it.. I dont know if that could be a reason..

                            Any ideas guys

                              How many kilometers on ODO right now? The 'burning smell' usually lasts till a little past 1000km on a new engine. Have you smelt this before, or is this the first time? Also do check if the smell is from the engine or any other area.
                              A good rider has balance, judgment, and good timing. So does a good lover!
