Don’t know what to say, really. I mean, I was really anticipating to Honda’s new CBR150R despite it being 100cc down on its bigger-hearted replicated. The concept of an R15-beater is tantalising, after all. Then again, if I were to be influenced by first opinions, I’d have never ridden the CBR150R after the first 50-km drive. What does that mean? Hopefully, by the end of this, we’ll have realized that out.
It’s the two-wheeled meaning of déjà vu, this motorbike. While we were capturing, an excellent kid on a CBR250R bogged down to a stop and seemed at the same time at his bicycle and ours, trying to determine out what we were fussing over. He noticed something was different, but couldn’t determine it until he saw the ‘150R’ sticker. And with an appearance that said ‘I’ve been cheated’, he retracted.
