    +1..
    Not as good looking as the younger brother either..

    Just waiting for the auto journos to get the their hands on cbr150r for a detailed road test. Then only we can comment whether its price is justified or not. Then, it would be very interesting to read this review - 'R15 vs CBR150R'
    I guess we are all waiting for this.

    But, dont you think, the 150R is worthy of being called CBR... even though it looks like a VFR, on paper, its a good engine for the race track. Short stroke engine, high revving nature, DOHC, light weight, etc,...
