CBR 150r Review thailand


Google Translate

Couldn't understand the review at all

Same here.

This is what i could make out from the review.

Ergonomics: Seems to be the same as a cbr250r. Pic speaks for itself.

Acceleration: cbr seems better than V Ixion in Indonesia. (the cbr has lower max torque than the v ixion.)

Handling: Seems sharp and agile(unlike the 250r). No comparisons put.

Suspension: Not as advanced as the link type suspension on the cbr250r but there seems to be no significant difference between ride quality of the both.

Tires: Seems to mention the bridgestone battlax. Not relevant to india. But it also says (i think) that the same type of tires being fitted at the factory on both the 150 and the 250.

Final comments: The review kind of says that its a cbr 250r with a smaller engine and better handling.

EDIT: Sorry for the misleading comparisons of cbr with r15. Didnt realise the r15 has an engine tuned for more power than v ixion. Edited with proper info.

The torque is 12.66 NM at 8500 rpm, but that doesn't say much about the rest of the powerband.

1. It could well be better than R15 from the signal start up. However, its unlikely to be much better at it, than RTR's and Pulsars due to afterall, being a 150cc only. And, Don't expect it to match ZMA /ZMR's strong pull in any case though.

2. Low end being sluggish than R15? This is not necessary. Remember that we got a figure of 12.66 NM at 8500 rpm. It is possible that due to the low maximum torque value, the bike is stronger & better throughout the range, due to this compromise...

Yes, R15 gets stronger beyond 5000 rpm and then achieves 15 NM @ 7500 because its an engine tuned for the high end power.

In fact, the Maximum torque and power figures signify performance at particular rpms only, not the rest of the powerband. So, its very hard to say anything without getting a proper performance graph which I couldn't find on google.

But, Bike India did report earlier what I already suspected: CBR 150R's torque is spread throughout the range, unlike the R15, BI says.

3. Yes, it should. Easily. As speed and rpm increases, you start feeling the claimed power. Keep it around 7000-9000 rpm and it should feel peppy! In fact, such high-end-tuned engines (like R15, CBR150R) are better at touching big figures than dealing with traffic at low rpm. It gives some 17.8PS @ 10,500 rpm.


Rest we can say, only by test riding it. But believe me guys, Figures are so deceptive that you may be proved wrong later on if you make statements based on them...

Interesting.
But I'm still skepticle.
Lets wait and watch..

cbr will be sluggish.

2.

track bikes have the nature of having torque and power @ high rpm range. after 5k the lag disappears.


yeah sure,why will it struggle?

WTH!!! Have you tested it? Is it an opinion or fact?

opinion based on r 15 's performance off the signal compared to rtr,220.

So its only an opinion? Did you want the facts?
Torque plays a more from stand still to movement...
RTR 180 - 15.50NM @6500 RPM (124)
P220 - 19.12NM @7000 RPM (131)
HH ZMR - 18.35NM @6000 RPM (110)
C250R - 22.90NM @7000 RPM (149)
R15 - 15.00NM @7500 RPM (116)

The numbers in the brackets are BHP per tonne; I leave the option to you, if you want to reconsider!!!

PS - If you're talking about CBR 150R (but again, you cannot witness C150R at signal, atleast in India)
C150R - 12.66 @8500 RPM (127)

are you took it all wrong ,i was talking about 150.
now 220 sure beats 150 cbr.

the guy asked for just opinion,no facts.so i was stating my opinion.

secondly i pitched it against rtr and 220 and assumed cbr will perform just like r15 @lower rpms.

the guy was actually asking cbr's performance with 2 up.so now considering rtr and 220 have so much low and mid-range torque they will be quicker off the signal with 2 up.

i am not forbidding you from giving opinion but that statement will make you look like stupid.

yeah i feel like stupid arguing with aargee.

anyways rg what is the power to weight ratio of r15,rtr 180, and 220s.
