Hello everyone, this is 13N
Today we are test riding GSX-R150
I just rode from the city to the canyon
Having ridden for a while, I've got a better idea of how this bike rides
This is a 150, techinically a 147c.c.
I believe it is
a proper sportsbike given its riding position
low clip on. There's another street version
called S-150
From the side view
this bike might look big
but once you get on it, you realize
it's pretty narrow since it's only a 150
It's actually more narrow
than my Z125, which has large tank plastics
for better thigh grip
this only extends up to about here
from the triple tree
you can tell the clip on goes under
that's why it's a proper sportsbike
the dash
let me turn it on
the dash looks very clean and pretty
it actually follows the same style
of other Suzuki's line us
ok, start
the stock exhaust sounds pretty bassy and full
alright, let's hit the road
it also has gear indicator
and a shift light on the right
to be honest, I haven't tried other
Taiwanese 150c.c. bikes
so I can't really compare them
I guess I will...
since I ride a Kawasaki Z125
I will compare this against those mini bikes
right off the bat
the cornering stability of this bike
is way better than the mini bikes, duh
I am the most impressed with its power
with 150c.c., when you hit the redline
a lof of times when you want to be a bit aggressive
it quickly reaches redline
the power sort of feels like...
so I test rode another bike, Honda CBR250RR
in comparison, 150's redline feels
a lot like 250RR's
8~9000rpm. (250RR has red line at 14000rpm)
with that RR, the power at 8~9000 rpm is plenty for the city street
don't even need to redline that bike
and this bike has 18 or 19 hp
you might wonder if it's odd
to ride at red line all the time
not at all, the red line is at 11000rpm
revs very quickly and hits limiter
why is this guy
signaling left while pulling to the right
wtf, he wants to U-Turn
shifter lights on! yup, it's on
comparing with other single cylinder bikes
you might feel the red line vibrates a lot
this bike also vibrates but
it feels natural to go with the power on the top
and the buzz quickly fades away in your mind
I am really satisfied with the power
of this 150 bike
especially that I ride a Z125
not even comparable in terms of power (well, they are different type of bikes)
X，I am scared of dogs on the street
Although I said
it's natural to ride at high rpm
but the vibration is still there
I can really feel it in my crotch
my butt is numbing a bit
but you always have the urge to push for more
so you wouldn't think about it all the time
ok, let's talk about my first impression
when I picked the bike up last night
not sure why, maybe because I was riding in the city
with a lot of stop and go traffic
I really find the riding position uncomfortable
I thoroughly enjoyed the power
but riding it
was making my neck sore and hurting my butt
this seat is uncomfortable
at the moment, I told my wife
that I rented a very popular 150c.c. sportbikes
but riding it back home...
I really wanted to like the bike, but it just doesn't feel right
It's until I took the bike to the canyon road
then I feel much better with upper body
no issue wth cornering and body movements
no change to the butt area though. still not comfortable
as for brakes, I think it's more than enough
for such a light weight bike
but the braking feedback...
how do I put it?
it's pulsing a bit
not smooth even though it brakes fine
this bike has ABS
so it's good to have such safety equipment
so when you ride out here or in the city
if it starts raining or roads become slick
the safety equipment will really come in handy. a must have
too bad the braking feel
is quite disappointing
it doesn't inspire confidence even though it can brake hard
some people might think it's alright for its price point
since it really is a bang for the buck
Somebody mentioned the build quality
isn't as good as they have expected
I think parts, rear suspension, could have rust issue?
this bike is still pretty new. Only at 2000km
I don't see anything wrong other than that it's dirty from all the rain riding
if you are looking to buy this bike. do more research
see if other owners have other issues to share
read both positive and negative review
I was just riding uphill earlier
even if it's just a 150
as long as you keep the rpm high
how do I put it. I recall somebody said
this bike makes you fee like it wants to go fast
obviously it's not that fast
but as long as the rider feels the quickness
then it's all worth it
it's actually quite nice
getting the feeling of going quick
but actually not breaking any speed limit (okay, maybe some)
not bad
According to the spec, what was the mileage again?
40km per liter or something?
let me check and share on the video
This bike has 11 liters of fuel capacity
in that case
if it can
go about 400km per fill up. That's quite something
X，my crotch hurts
if you corner hard and move your butt constantly
then you won't have issue with the bike
probably wont tire you out like this
but if you ride casually or commute
my lower body feels crunched
you might say that's the issue with all sportbikes
not really. CBR250RR I test rode the other day
the sitting and riding position
was comfortable all around
I don't feel exhausted at all
you might wonder if the windscreen is doing its job
if the wind is deflected properly
honestly, I didn't do any top speed runs
according to the manager, he pushed to 125km/h
in casual riding speed
I don't think there's any issue with wind
frankly, if you want to tuck in to speed
it's not possible. there's no room
front and rear suspension are non-adjustable
rear suspension is multi-link
when riding, the front fork
feels quite nice and firm
In this type of setup
I think it's quite stable
as for the rear suspension
stability as a whole when cornering
well, sportbike has most weight in the front
when I ride it, I am not quite sure
what the rear wants to do. not criticle
probably small bike's common issue with rear end. can be fixed with upgrades
this bike is equipped
with LED headlight. Very bright and clear at night
it kind of flickers at idle speed
like a lot of smaller scooters
no flickers when riding though, so that's good.
I really don't like how this brake feels
when you pull the lever
if you are not braking hard
you feel a little bit of pulsing, not sure if it's the ABS
probably not
ok, back to city street
like I said, 18 horsepower
more than enough for some fun ride up in the mountain
easy to ride. not a problem with uphill.
and definitely plenty for the city street
with this power output
you can leverage
the torque that comes on at 7000rpm
to help you pass other vehicles
really usable power up top
it's quick for its size
unlike the mini bike
like Z125 or MSX
even though they are fun to ride with, they are limited in terms of power
you will often feel the power
isn't enough. not enough up top too
so if you find those lacking power
not enough grunt
then look at these 150s
of course besides this R150
there's also S150
if you mostly commute
you can consider S150 with more comfortable riding position
on city streets
the buzzing in high rpm is more noticeable
especially during stop and go traffic
for instance I kind of want to pee right now
the buzzing is making it worse...lol
like I said earlier
when I was riding in the canyon
you'll soon forget about the buzzing when pushing the bike
becuase all you can think about is squeezing out the power
I think shifting 1st to 2nd gear..ummm
well, I am sort of acquainted with the bike
shifting harder helps with shifting
when I first rode the bike
I often misshift to neutral
pretty awkward at a stop light
not sure if I have videos for it
as soon as I move, the engine screams
with the bike barely moving...ah..neutral
this tranmission
is much sharper and precise
than the mini bikes that I have ridden. Like MSX or Z125
As for the keyless entry feature
I understand its convenience for city riding
but I still think it's a gimmick
for a 150c.c. motorcycle
its main purpose
should be about ease of maintenance
simple mechanics
with keyless entry
that's one more thing to go wrong
as you can see, the gas cap
still requires key to open
I'd thought the gas cap could be keyless too
might as well come up with full keyless feature
not just for ignition
it'd be nice to have a switch to open gas cap without the key
ok, I rarely talk about side mirros when test riding
because I felt mirrors are not worthy of reviewing
however, this bike's mirror has excellent visibility
the angle
a lot of bigger bikes
have bad mirror positions that cannot be fixed
this is placed just right. I can see everything behind me
nothing is blocked by my elbow
the handlebar
as you can see below is narrow
so that also helps
otherwise a lot of mirrors on big bikes are easily blocked by shoulders
if you want a small sportsbike with great value that can be ridden hard
GSX-R150 is a great choice
let me think
How do I describe this bike
If you love being quick, but not actually going way too fast for the street
then this GSX-R150 is great
good thing it also has its twin brother S150
if you really find this GSX-R150 uncomfortable
then you can pick its twin
alright, that's it for this video
