Honda Malaysia launches 2021 CBR150R, check full details

KUALA LUMPUR: It was only in January this year that Honda launched the new CBR150R in Indonesia, and now the 150 cc sports bike blessed Malaysia too with its arrival, making the already competitive segment even more challenging.

On the design front, the new Honda CBR150R looks almost like the CBR250RR. Meaning, if on a budget customers can still enjoy the latter expensive luxe looks via going for Honda's latest offering. The setup includes a twin headlight setup and just like its 250 cc all its lighting elements are LED.

Furthermore, it offers the riders an aggressive riding position, thanks to the full-fairing and forward-leaning riding position.
