HONDA CBR150R Repsol (2005-Present) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Honda CBR150R was a sports bike first manufactured in 2002 as a successor to the NSR150 model, part of the CBR series in Honda's range of motorcycles and powered by a 150cc single-cylinder engine fitted at the core of a retro-styled machine.

In 2005, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda CBR150R Repsol, a special edition motorcycle in its first generation, with a full Repsol racing livery that packed the iconic Orange, Red, and White colors, along with the Repsol logo on the fairing.

The bike was a great choice for those riders who were looking for a sporty and fun machine, especially for those who preferred a small displacement motorcycle, but also a good option for beginners, with its lightweight and easy-to-handle capabilities.

The CBR150R Repsol machine featured a diamond frame that housed a telescopic fork on the front and a monoshock absorber on the rear for optimum suspension performance and handling.

As for the stopping power, the bike was fitted with a 276 mm disc with a two-piston caliper on the front wheel and one 220 mm disc with a two-piston caliper on the rear wheel for optimum braking performance.

In the performance department, the 2005 Honda CBR150R Repsol had its soul brought to life by a 149cc four-stroke single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine fitted with a carburetor and delivered an output power of 17 hp with maximum strength at 9,000 rpm and 14 Nm (10 lb-ft) of torque available at 7,000 rpm.
