Definitely you will will not find any bike that has...

The power of KRR/SP/TZM.. in a 150cc yet it's fuel efficient (4 stroke) that has a killer hardware akin R125/ Cagiva mito and a killer looks like ducati/ R15 v2.0

Why is that R125 is more expensive?

I can only give some personal experience la..

1) Looi's is the only motorshop that brings it in currently. And they hold a export license which cost a bomb to bring the bike in, let alone it cost a bomb to have that license.

plus..

The bike has default brembo brakes, inverted folk, large span of engineering on the aero-dynamic, lots of muscle from the racing parts attached to it.. patent that comes from the R-series killer technology

and.. the most important thing of all.. It's fully made and own in Euro. Euro dollar is much bigger than sillypore currency.

R15 is made and crafted in India. And it's not build as a sportsbike but a 'commuter' bike with an edge. Like wise for CBR150 I believe.. It's not a killer like Aprilla, ducati, cagiva, derbi.. They are made from long standing predecessor.

 

Guess it's all a game-plan of some sort here in the biking community here. Even R15 v2.0 that was released 6th this month wouldn't hit shore till... 1 ~ 2 years later?

KTM duke 125 just launch, the association for bike wouldn't be as dumb to intro this new bike here to screw with the already trying to survive 2B "sportsbike" section. Hehe..

SP/KRR/TZM era is going off soon.. what other 'cheap 'sportsbike can we get? XD

[shooting_machine_11]

dont know leh, now my bike 2nd time ald with this problem..knn..n they say its not e factory problem..

[Psychedelic87]

I was considering between a second-hand CBR150 and a R15 last year before I got my red R15 in the end. The R15 costs more, but it definitely looks a lot better than the skinny-looking CBR. Good luck with your hunt for a new bike!

den whose problem sia... does a fuel pump ex?

[chiaph]

Yes! Fuel pump is expensive and it really seems to be the major issue to us rider.

Guys do you all wait for the the fuel bar to be low than go and top up petrol?

If yes please avoid doing it so as it will damage the fuel pump.

normally i will top up ard 2 bar.

 

the reason is that when our petrol is low, the fuel pump will have difficulty taking in petrol properly.

like when ur drink in a cup is about to finish u will make more effort to drink up to the last bit.

 

that is my understanding about fuel pump.

 

FIP(fuel injection pump) is a very complicated yet wonderful technology. heh!

just my 2 cents, correct me if i am wrong! =)

I pump whenever I'm missing two bar. Yet I don't know why I change fuel pump twice.
