whoa, 100kph on highways n u still get 44.7km/l? i wonder how much mine will b cos i always ride ard 80kph on highways except when overtaking, i went higher. other than tt, it's 80kph all the way on normal roads ard 70kph.. i always wanted to calculate but i always forget to take note when filling up petrol.. haha..

i believe it's not just about speed, but how generously u throttle.

 

do a calculation aman, i'm sure u can hit at least 40km per litre wan. i wondering how some riders do below 40km per litre on the CBR150R, super fierce. :cheeky:

oh i c.. i tink mine did reached 40km/litre, only that i didnt realise that u can reach 44.7km/litre while riding 100km on highways.. haha.. anyways, i'll try to calculate nxt time. mayb not now cos im currently "throttle-happy" wif my new airfilters. lol..

oh ya, heard about ur air filter thinggie, glad u're having fun with it, try to calculate also, then we know the lower range of fuel consumption this bike has. :smile:

i managed to find my plug already. i kept it separately from my usual bike stuff hence didn't find it initially.

 

spent quite a while on saturday to wash bike, change EO, spark plug and air filter. the ride is so sweet everytime after an EO change.

[ozzarhomb]

wah lau!! the forum is like totally revamped. i got a shock just now when i log in to this page cuz my photo is so big.

 

think tonight when i get back to my room i'll resize my picture, now in office.

hee hee, this is not the first time i did it mah, so i roughly know how to do it. but u're right, i takes quite a while to unscrew the spark plug, the thread on the spark plug is so long, i'm using NGK Platinum now but can't tell if the ride's better cuz EO change and air filter change together.

 

i bought extra air cleaner and air filter and light bulbs. people in west area lazy go down town buy can approach me. i sell 1 buck more expensive than cost price for DIY. separate installation charges apply. :cheeky:

wah wah

become backup spareparts shop liao ah?

haha

maybe u can start stocking up on fresh tyres, chain & sprockets, engine oil, etc also!

=P

Hey guys. Just now finally calculated my FC.. this is based on riding 50-60km/hr on normal roads, and 80-100km/hr on expressways. with a lot of throttle playing of course, due to my new airfilters. haha.. anyways, i got 41.68km/litre. tts good for me

tt's good tt's good, i think the newer ones are a little more economical. my last CBR150R got 40km\L at best while this newer one can get 44.7KM\L. UPZ. hopefully next year we'll get EFI for CBR150R, then it'll be even better!!

haha

seriously i still wouldnt go for a EFI leh

for the plain reason that it isnt as traditional to troubleshoot especially if i visit my JB mechanic~

anyway i keep feeling tempted to change to a 1st hand CBR150 w/ a nice/bidded number plate~

=P

but i totally understand how the depreciation on 1st hand machines can kill my pockets~

[volux]

Erm sorry I'm new here..

 

Was wondering how the bike is like compared to the BBDC's CG125..

 

Is it heavier? And is the sitting higher/lower than the CG125?

 

Currently just looking for potential bikes cause I'm kinda short.. Lol

 

(still taking my practicals tho.. dont ask me which one though )

ya u're right actually, carb bikes are much easier to trouble-shoot and maintain i think.

 

u are graduate leh, working liao, the depreciation for a small CBR150R u sure can handle easily de. just think about if u buy a car, 1 yr depreciation can get u a brand new CBR150R with bidded number plate liao.

hi, welcome, CG125 is heavier and slower than CBR150R. height is not a problem i believed. quite a number of gals were riding this bike also. are u a gal or guy? how tall are u?

 

cuz come to think of it, our CBR150R gals not that short wan.

CG125 is heavier? Ok good that'll make the CBR150 a lil easier for me to push/park etc

 

I'm a guy btw, and I'm around 1.56m.. Lol.. I'm alot shorter than most of my peers.. .. Going to be 20 this yr too.. NS also coming in 6 days time..

[ozzarhomb]

ok, the bike is not an issue lah, CBR150R is super light for a motorcycle. not including cubs. hmm, i guess should be ok ba, since u sit down on the bike it'll sink down anyway. dun worry. :smile:

wah sian, 3 of my meter lights just blew, just 1 week after i replaced both my headlight bulbs. think the stock bulbs all designed to last 1.5yrs liddat only. maybe later have to go downtown buy bulbs again.

the bulbs u got were 3watt or 5watt?

i've had 1 of the speedo bulbs replaced w/ 5watt one before

and it blew within a few days

original bulbs are 3watt
