The bike is powered by a 149.2cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that makes 17.1hp and 14.4Nm. In comparison, the Yamaha R15 V4’s 155cc, liquid-cooled engine makes 18.4hp and 14.2Nm. In terms of the chassis, the CBR150R utilizes a diamond frame, suspended by a USD fork and a mono-shock.

Whether Honda will follow up the design registration of the CBR150R In India with actually launching the bike here is something only time will tell.
