taichiplanet Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) Part of the announcements today at the Thai Honda Dealers conference is 7 'new' models, including a 'new model' CBR150. The only thing 'new' about it is the graphics seemed to have been changed slightly. The most interesting model is a CRF250L, wonder what the price will be? It seems they will concentrate on inserting the 125cc engine into other bikes, instead of the 150cc http://world.honda.com/news/2012/2120110New-Click-125i-Thailand/index.html?from=rR Edited January 10, 2012 by taichiplanet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taichiplanet Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 (edited) Honda India has announced several new models for its market including the CBR150. Correct me if i am wrong but i don't think the Fi model was available there last year. I wonder if we'll see more mods coming via India, or if Honda will make the CBR150 a world-wide model eventually?

On the first pic showing an all white one, the previous was tricolor (see below), so they've dropped the red & blue and gone all white, with a different sticker on the front.

RED21 Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 (edited) The white one has the same look as the latest fireblade, all white with red and blue decals. Red and black look almost the same as last year's model. I'm surprised they didn't go for the silver and orange combo that the 125 has. If the 150 becomes a world-wide model it would be good news for us owners, since more aftermarket parts will be made available.

Just1Voice Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 I know the 150 was available in Philippines last year, as I know someone in Manilla who bought a tri color same as mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taichiplanet Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 (edited) As far as i know it was only available in the Thai, Indonesia and Philippine markets. So now we can add India to the list. Edited January 11, 2012 by taichiplanet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just1Voice Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Ok, maybe I'm "getting old", but this looks good to me, and wife totally loves it! But doubt it will be available here. http://hypebeast.com/2011/11/2012-honda-integra-motorcycle/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just1Voice Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 As far as i know it was only available in the Thai, Indonesia and Philippine markets. So now we can add India to the list. And possibly either the US or Australia, as Honda just did a new commercial featuring 150 with Casey Stoner, who is Australian. As stated above,that would be good as then more aftermarket parts would be available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know where that Stoner ad was supposed to be shown; it was filmed around August 2011 and looks like Malaysia but Malaysia doesn't have the 150. If they were gonna do some new markets surely they'd use the 2012 model with the all new go faster stickers!

taichiplanet Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) Looking at the figures from the DLT for bikes registered last year. They only have figures for under 100cc, 101-125cc, 126-150cc and '151cc and over'. So i guess, at least for 2011, it is only the CBR150 in the 126-150cc section and the CBR250 in the over 150cc section. Drum roll please!! CBR150 9,327 CBR250 5,426 Kawasaki 3,548 over 150cc Yamaha 130 over 150cc Ducati 270 Harley 235 BMW 186 Suzuki 13 over 150cc Triumph 112 A total of 11,010 bikes over 150cc were registered. The total number of bikes registered in Thailand in 2011 was just over 2 million (2,001,044) of which 1.3 million were Hondas in the 101-125cc division. The most intersting fact by far (besides the fact that the CBR150 out sold the CBR250 by nearly 2 to 1) is that there is a bike brand called Penguin! They didn't register any bikes.

Just1Voice Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Ok, for what it's worth, I had to stop by Honda today to pick up new insurance sticker. Whle there, MeeMee, the head Mech saw me and came rushing over to me. Told me : CBR400 here in March! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll swing by dealer here in CM today and check and see if they have yet. Here's a pic of the red bike close to Smith Residence, not actually on Wulaii, but the road that 'y's off of it. The one next to it i think is a used bike, the grey and red seemed to work well together. Maybe the red came out first???

RED21 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 (edited) The red one is still the 2011 model. Anyways, I just found some scratches on my exhaust guard (probably some retard put it there parking too close to the bike at Tesco or somewhere - it's not noticeable until you get up close to the bike), was thinking of repainting it with heat resisitant black paint, but it might be a wasted effort if I go through putting on an aftermarket exhaust. So anyone know some place in Chiang Mai where you can get a good one? Recommendations? Initially I was thinking of asking a friend from Indonesia to get me an inconspicous R9 model (something that doesn't scream free 500B to the local BiBs), but for several reasons I decided not to.

Just1Voice Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Went by Honday in CM. Only have 2 of the red/silver models from last year. Don't know when new ones will be in. Mee says March/April for the 400, but not sure about 600. Brian... I'm more interested in the 400, now that I know it's coming. Even had a Kawasaki dealer tell me the CBR 400 would be here in March/April. Wife and I both want to see it, AND the 600 if that also comes. She got totally sold on a bigger bike when she saw a new Ninja 650 yesterday and blurted out: "That's what you need!" I just smiled and nodded. But we both agree not to do anything till the CBR 400 arrives. Love the Ninja 650 (had one back in the States), and love the CBR 600, but think the 400 would, overall, be the best bike for my purposes. But wife said if the price difference between the CBR 400 and Ninja 650 is less than 20k, she'd rather I have the Ninja. So now it's just a waiting game for a couple of more months. Until then, I'm happy with my tri-color 150. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just1Voice Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Definitely LIKE! Had wife watch with me the 2nd time. She got name and phone number, said she'll call him tomorrow.

SumetCycle Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 We sell an alarm system similar to that at the shop. I'm not sure if it is the same as the one in the video though. I'll check and post more details tomorrow. Thanks. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hehehoho Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) Someone's getting ahead of the 2012 graphics. What's that tail off? One of the Tyga sets for the old CBR400's? Edited January 25, 2012 by hehehoho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
