Only one guy have done TD (arjun25) .. Has said Unicorn is quick than CBR150R and r15 v2.0 is better ,but he owns pulsar 220 .. Yet NDTV exclusive video claimed its is QUICK ... lol ..

Wait for the review and then compare it with r15 v2.0 plz .. bored to read all those negative comments and its not helping me in anyway to buy this bike

i was not happy the way some people declared "this is gonna be a flop product" and blah blah.

anyway, its my fault i got involved into this. this is the job of a moderator or an xpolice.

peace.

There, that's the answer. Now I sure couldn't put it across in such understandable terms but there certainly wasn't a need for that sarcasm Prince Sirohi. You well couldav pointed out where I went wrong and how could I have corrected myself. I sure as hell wouldn't have come biting at you for that.

#The irony of "the quality of xbhp going down".

Expecting a 1st hand user review from Sudhir or You. Congrats on the purchase. Good luck.

While at the TD please do check for the following;

The headlight coverage.
The tank whether its fibre or metal.
The quality of the seats whether they're hard like my R15 or soft like the CBR250r.
Backlit switches, if any.
Engine kill-switch, if any.
Dual horn, if any.
The topspeed, if allowed.
The rev limiter, if any.

absent.back lits are exclusive for pulsars and dukes.
how come they ommit an engine-kill on a track bike.

Mods: Please correct the thread name. 'CBR150R Launched soon' doesn't make sense.

I am sure theres no engine kill switch and no backlit switches as the handlebar is same as that of cb stunner.
cbr150r doesnt have the gear shift indicator too..

I will check for the other things u asked for sure when i TD

Correction, Stunner's handlebar is normal regular handle bar. CBR150R has clip-on handlebars (as per the pictures). The switchgear may be same as Stunner's.

But its not steel type like on other commuter bikes, its painted or something has been done on it. It looks black and really good.

Guys don't get me wrong. I agree am riding a p220 but I am still a die hard fan of honda. Could not buy the cbr 250 many reasons for not to go for it.

Well cbr 150 is a good bike I am not denying this. Please friends I am in Xbhp since 2004 and I have changed so many vehicles in the past I know what a bike is and hot to treat it. But as when I took the td the place was not so open too much and I had a pillion who was scared given by the dealer hmm.

There is a kill switch on the handle bar, it comes with a split handle bar very light in weight the best part was the sitting posture is good you don't hit the tank at all.

Well rest shall come to know when u friends take the td and give your remark. one more thing soon I will be going for another td from another dealer but this time I shall pull her a lot to see the real feel of cbr 150r. Then I might change my review for the bike.

If I have made upset to anyone of u out there I am sorry for it. I am 32 years old changed bikes 6 in total till date.

Peace from my side thanx to hear me out bye signing out. Take care

Black paint is the standard now. Dazzler, Unicorn, Stunner all have regular handlebars (black in color, one single piece) which are connected to T-stem plate.

Clip-on handle bars are two separate pieces connected directly to fork tubes. You have the convenience of replacing single piece in case of damage to one side, but they are expensive. Eg, P220, P180 and P150 (latest versions) ZMR, RTR160 (latest versions) and RTR180, and all powerful bikes recently launched.

Next time, try to shift gears at higher rpms, say 5-6k minimum (you can take easy in first gear, but rest of the gears rev it high).

No need for you to be sorry. Just many are eagerly waiting to see how the engine performs. They will wait till a proper review comes.

Honda CBR150 R launched soon...
