  • I'm posting my queries here because this thread is Active while the R15 V 2.0 is not

    Hello Guys .

    While i checked the mileage of R15 V 2.0 (in Doubles )&( ODO reading 550 Km's ) i noticed the following things -

    1.Riding at 5 k RPM in 6th gear it delivers a descent mileage of 40 km/liter .

    2.Riding at 6 k RPM - 7 k RPM in 6th gear it delivers a descent mileage of 37 km/liter .

    3.Riding at 7.5 k RPM in 6th gear and above it delivers a mileage of 32 - 35 km/liter . [ Dint check the Mileage on the Highway ]

    Note - This experiment was done by Keeping " 2 Liters " of fuel inside the bike and drive till the Fuel is completely dried . Again repeated this same experiment and rode at different RPM's . This was checked in Bumper to Bumper traffic rides and Normal traffic rides

    My Questions .

    1. Will the CBR 150R Fuel Efficiency also differs while we ride in 6th gear On Different RPM's ? ( Why I'm comparing this because , Both bikes are equipped with Electronic Fuel Injection )

    2. Is this common for all Fuel Injected Bikes ? ( Please Explain , Why is it so ? )

    3. Can we Tune the Fuel Injection to increase the mileage as we can do in CarBurrater ?

    4. Do the mileage decreases when we ride in doubles ?

    Please Note -Well , Guys I'm confused beyond . I don't know where to post this . As this is OT - I request you guys not to start a Argument War with me . Those who are willing to answer my questions , Please Answer and others if you don't like to means , Just Ignore this Post and concentrate with other posts .


    Cheers S.V.Prasad

    • ^^ The bike is not tested yet for mileage, but being a performance bike like R-15, the FE will be more or less similar. CBR150R, being Honda product, I expect better FE figure than R-15.

        fe figure will vary according to specific gear@specific rpm.

        it is common for fi as well as carb bikes.

        fi can't be tuned,the ecu decides the optimal amount of fuel to be injected depending upon various conditions.

        yeah sure,more weight,more work to be dine to achieve same speed.
        and the question remains why do i race?
        every finishing line is the begining of a new race.

        #i have learnt to manipulate my own adrenaline and the perception of biking is different.
        #overkill is underrated.
        #how random roads may appear there is always a destination.sigpic
        #i don't subscribe to co-incidence,either it is the rider or the other moron on the road

        (:)people keeps on saying add spark to life, bajaj got hold of that idea and added an extra spark to bike.

          Thank you very much for clearing my doubts . My friend and myself worried when the Mileage varied according to different RPM's in Sixth Gear . Now our mind is Free from worries

            • While you all guys keep talking about speculation, just wanted to share an information here that CBR 150R doesn't have rocker arm instead employs direct camshaft to do the job!!! Sounds simple, Google for it & you'll be amazed to see on that technology. PSR Ji's inputs will be much appreciated on this here.

              Its a DOHC engine, which is a known fact anyway!!!

              BTW, people who keep saying 17 & 17.6 (or whatever) doesn't make a difference, pls check the specs once again...
              R15 makes 17PS @ 8500rpm which is 16.76 BHP
              AND
              CBR 150R makes 17.58 BHP which is 17.76 PS

              Its a negligible though, but worth a point to take notice

                        OT: Hey man, please add the ""Always ride with complete riding gears... "" in your "Edit signature" page, ok? Its more convenient that way.

                        Secondly, CBR 150R has a DOHC (Dual OverHead Camshafts) Configuration. Better google it to understand it better. Here is an image, as you can see cams move the valves directly, and not using a rocker arm arrangement:

                        • I called 3 Honda showrooms in Delhi to inquire about CBR150R. As I expected, they do not have the motorcycle yet, but one of them said they'll have the motorcycle in 15 days, the other said they'll have it in 2 days while the third one said they have no idea when they'll get it

                          EDIT: One of the showrooms quoted an on-road price of 1.31 lakhs for the deluxe variant.

                              i am not sure but probably it doesn't have an engine kill.
