CBR150R Riders, Join us now!

[wrjanan]

Hi guys!

Just bought my CBR150R not too long ago, riding on the road and I find riding really fun and exciting! Just sometimes drivers seem a little too impatient on the road. Haha but it's fine, hope I don't meet any drunk drivers I'll be satisfied!

Anyway my CBR is doing great with great fuel consumption and excellent acceleration, just that when I did a machine check with a car jack, the front wheel doesn't seem to spin freely. Also when I pass by a large object I can hear the sound of my motorbike, it rattles quite cutely, hahah is this normal?

[wrjanan]

Ahhh~ that's good, just serviced bike today for less than 100, wash carburator, change spark plug, buy chain gel, change engine oil. Feels stronger than usual, just hope it lasts.

 

Oh ya and the front wheel problem is because of the disc plate is bent, to change original part is 95 bucks + 25 bucks for brake plate and brake pads respectively. Should I go for arashi instead which is 60 bucks only, probably 40 bucks cheaper than original. hmmmmmm.

use back oem is the best and sometime the safest

It's been sometime since the CBR150 community has a gathering. The idea was initiated by WhiteFang and will be held around March.

 

Just an interest check if anyone will be attending....

If change bulb can't work like what bugsy did, then it could be the switch itself has melted...

 

If melted, please change to OEM as aftermarket switch doesn't lasts long.

Thanks for the interests guys! Will post out more info soon!!!

[chipsmore]

even though i'm very new to this community and riding only for leisure. i do want to know more about my bike. let me know when is the outing haha.

[xiaoviper]

Hey guys, wanna ask how often do you all recommend before servicing CBR150? Shop told me about 2500km... Juz wanna clarify. Synthetic will last longer?

I remember seeing somewhere like, synthetic, every 4000km service, whereas semi-synthetic about every 2500km.

-edited, i found the post that state this already-

 

anyway wanna ask also if brake fluid under the lower line mark, must change to new fluid or just top-up?

think it depends on what's causing the wheel to not rotate freely.

i got a new front disc (original) replaced for about $75 3years ago.

i agree that cbr150 is one easy bike to ride. im still loving it today after 4years of ownership. particularly like e smooth reving engine and exhaust note

could it be david that u r looking for?

paging for david~

 

anyway wanna ask also if brake fluid under the lower line mark, must change to new fluid or just top-up?

 

the brake fluid level in the reservoir will vary according to brake pad thickness. i personally feel it is ok if it's just a little bit below the minimum mark and if it's due to brakepads thinned out (may mean that it's time to get new pads).

 

under any circumstances, it shouldn't go too way below the minimum mark cause it may mean either of e following:

- brakepads are fully worn out or

- there's a brake fluid leak somewhere along the braking system or

- whoever that meddled around with the reservoir previously didn't even bother to topup sufficient fluid.

I need it long term like a few days to see if my CDI is faulty... cos there's an intermittent fault...

[xXxRatedxXx]

talking abt brakes, is there a way to adjust the rear brake pads so that it is closer to the disc? so no need to step so hard to brake...

 

better don't.... later lock the rear wheel.... rear brake no need so makan.
