eezergood Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Tricity 2.JPG I will order one of these for the mrs tomorrow! From a safety & ease of use around Patong, it looks to be ideal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornishcarlos Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 (edited) Does anyone have an idea when the MT-07 will be released and what sort of price ? In the U.K it sells for equivalent of approx 270k baht !! Looks like a lot of machine for those bucks Edited June 5, 2014 by cornishcarlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ll2 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 nice, nearly the same price with cbr150. this is teh Indian version i guess. Are they making them in Thailand as price is cheap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dancer Schmancer Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 17Ps. Low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) ^Lower than what and what difference would that make in the real world? CBR 150 R has a DOHC 4 stroke 150cc Liquid cooled engine which produces 17.6 ps at 10500 rpm and 12.66nm of torque at 8500 rpm. Yamaha uses a SOHC 4 stroke liquid cooled 150cc engine on the R15 which produces 17ps at 8500 rpm and 15 nm of torque at 7500 rpm. Unlike the CBR the square engine on the R15 produces ample amounts of torque at low revs. It needs lesser clutch and throttle effort to pull away cleanly from a dead stop. The low end torque is enough to putter around in city stop go traffic from rpm as low as 2000 in second gear. Mid range is also better on the R15. http://throttlers.net/ride/2012/04/30/comparison-honda-cbr-150-r-vs-yamaha-yzf-r15-v2-0/ Edited June 19, 2014 by VocalNeal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATF Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Oh. I thought it was going to be a 220 bhp R1 with ABS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 The R25 seems to have more of a 2-stroke power delivery which is a plus for me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mania Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 The R25 seems to have more of a 2-stroke power delivery which is a plus for me. Exactly as small bike should be right Neal Small bikes are all about rowing the gearbox staying on the pipe/powerband I like that too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttakata Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I like the look of this R15 far more than the CBR150. It looks like an earlier generation R1. I'm sure it will sell well, price seems pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ll2 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 pity it is coming with a SOHC. it means a dead top end although more low end torque. I expect a better top end and more revs from a small single cylinder sport bike like Honda cbr150 is reaching 11,500 rpm with its DOHC engine. Also Yamaha engine has an undersquare 57*58.7 mm bore stroke ratio which means it means it is not revvy in nature. Honda in the meantime has a revvier 63.4*47.2 oversquare engine.

mania Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Costs more & not sure it will appear in Thailand but for a single cylinder I think this would probably be nicer http://www.kawasaki1ban.com/news_topics/9591 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

01322521959 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 I wa out on Prahoyutin road this afternoon and they were showing the Yamaha R15, you could have a test run on it and they seemed to be selling them like hot cakes. 88,000 Baht OTR, was going back for a test run, but then the heavens opened,that, and the fact it only puts out 17BHP put me off. In 1982 I bought myself A Honda CB125 twin which made 16.5BHP, not a lot to show for 30 odd years of progress.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mania Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 That is a good pic While I agree a 125@17hp is nothing to write home about & close to half the hp of 20-30 years ago That pic you posted is pretty tidy looking package Will fit in good for those use to the Honda 150 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttakata Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) Thai marketing, can't fault them, but I sorta want to buy something other than the bike watching this.
