@rayfaye  Honda has quite a few different operator's manuals in English here:  https://www.hondamotopub.com/HPI

 

They have Click 150i manuals for 2017, 2019 and 2020.  Also the 2020 manual for the ADV150.

 

Here's the main page.  Some are in English, Some not.  https://www.hondamotopub.com/

I don't know about that, but FUN is the first word that popped into my mind when I saw it. 555

On race track, or public byway?

Clearly designed for former.

 

At least it is not too expensive.

THANK you, I've had a PCX for almost 3 years but never had a good explanation of the key fob before.

This will be very interesting, I wonder how much they change the chassis to accommodate a 350cc engine...!

 

When I tried ADV150 a few weeks ago just needed a bit more leg room to put feet up against that vertical footrest...

 

If lighter it will leave Forza 350 behind....????

Yamaha WR155R looks like a fun bike.    105000฿

If it has the same engine as other Yamaha 155 models (which is very likely), it will be awesome.

Aerox 155 is a blast, haven't tried a scooter that has such a acceleration compared to similar models.

Funny that on their website they categorize it under "commuter models" haha

Will the 250cc then be called "Africa Single"? ????

If Honda should release a smaller Africa Twin it will either be based on their 500cc (CB500X) or 750cc (NC750X) engine, or maybe a newly developed engine, but it won't be based on a 250cc single cylinder engine.

Anybody heard if the Kawasaki ZX-25R 4 cylinder will land on our shores here?

 

https://www.cycleworld.com/2020-kawasaki-ninja-zx-25r-first-look/

 

It will be built in Indonesia and comments lean that it is marketed for Indonesia but that doesn't always mean they do not end of here. 

 

I would snap one up in a minute. I would love to see Honda and Yamaha go back to the inline 4 on their 250cc bikes. Man that era of time when they all had them was outstanding. Rev those out to 18,000. super light, handle excellent. They have many of the trick parts like the big liter bikes but at a fraction of the cost. I had a Yamaha 86 FZR 250 exup. What a fun little bike. Way more fun then my R3 now

@JAFO I thought I read someone on this forum said they bought one here in Thailand and it's waiting for them here when they come back from abroad...!? Be honest I was surprised..., maybe just hoping/wishing.... ????

I do not know.  I too hope they become available.  I haven't done a lot of leg work looking yet but am interested if they are.  A little 60hp 250 man what fun.  Around Northern Thailand you do not need a 600 or liter bike. Waste of money. 250s are canyon carvers.

I think it revs really high RPM to get those indicated power and torque, and on the twisties and up and down the mountains it will need a very experience rider to manage it, perhaps easier on straight flat roads....

It's being sold already, so we can expect a review from you two next week? http://www.kawasaki.co.th/motorcycle/ninjazx25r

Thanks.  I hadn't dug that deep looking after I saw the read on its release.  I stopped by my local Kawasaki dealer and they had no idea.  I figured someone would know.  

 

269k bht is a bit steep for a 250, would have guessed price point at 200 to 210 tops . Will have to go see what kind of deals might be had. Then of course comes convincing my wife that its ok to own 4 motorcycles when you can only ride one at a time. ????

Thanks. I just returned home from my business trip and started looking at some vids. The question will be how does it do on some good street roads. I have a 1995 Honda NSR 250 SE oil burner and a 1995 RVF NC35 and I have to believe it will run in between them somewhere. Interesting to ride a 2 stroke V2 (NSR) a V4 RVF, an inline 2 (Yam R3)  and maybe an inline 4 ZX 250.

 

I made a passing comment to wife and she rolled her eyes and laughed... To me, that's not a NO...
