HONDA CBR 150R
Honda CBR 150R is the
latest performance bike from honda.From the first look you might be mistaken
for cbr 250R.The front of the looks almost same as 250 but the headlight
cluster got some change.But when you look from the side it is same as the 250
and also the rear section too has the same look.The 150cc engine is a DOHC
engine producing 17.6ps pf power and 12.6NM of torque.Rear has mono
suspension.CBR 150R comes with two varients Deluxe and standard.

Engine and Power
Both CBR and R15 has 150cc
engine.Both bikes make almost same power CBR150R produces 17.1 at 10500RPM and
R15 produces 17ps at 8500RPM.But r15 has more torque than CBR150r.In terms of
power figures, there is not much of difference in both the bikes but thanks to
the peppy motor and 7kg lighter frame of the Honda CBR 150 R is faster than the
Yamaha R15. While testing at the Chennai circuit, the stock Honda CBR150
motorcycles ridden by expert riders posted the fastest lap time of 2 min 12
seconds around the long loop. The tuned and modified Yamaha YZF-R15 motorcycles
currently running in the championship experts’ class ridden by same riders
along the same full loop are posting lap times in the region of 2 minutes 13-14
seconds. That means with a minor tweaks to the Honda, this two second
difference between the lap times can be increased even more.
Performance and Efficiency
The Honda is very easy to
ride around tight circuits. It is extremely agile and nimble around corners.
Compared to the Yamaha YZF-R15, the Honda’s engine revs quicker and provides
solid grunt from lower revs. The only shortfall I noticed on the Honda was its
instability through high-speed corners and bumps. That is mostly because of the
weight and small size of the bike.Honda surpasses the Yamaha in engine
performance, in the handling department its feather weight chassis and tiny
size work against it. The CBR150 lacks the handling prowess of the Yamaha R15
and on high-speed corners it does not inspire enough confidence. The Honda is
more agile and flickable out of the two but it is not as composed as the Yamaha
and fails to tackle the mid-corner bumps with smoothness and surety. On the
other hand, the Yamaha YZF-R15 is a composed and brilliant handling machine
which allows the rider to push it to the limits.
VERDICT
Honda CBR150R is priced at
RS1.16 lakhs and RS 1.17 lakhs.Yamaha r15 version 2.0 is priced at RS 1.7
lakhs.So yamaha is almost 10000RS less expensive than honda.If you want a good
track tool then R15 and also handles better than CBR.But CBR is more easier and
comfortable to ride.
