The 2011 model of the Honda CBR150R which has been available in few countries such as Thailand, comes in full fairing version. The full fairing version is also great design which resembles the bigger brother CBR250R.

The Thais has modded this 2011 Honda CBR150R nicely for touring in naked version, which in my humble opinion, are great modification well done properly.

The modification parts that I can observe from the picture is the usage of pro-Arm suspension taken from Honda NSR150SP. The front fork suspension also has been changed to upside-down fork which usually are reserved for bigger displacement bikes. The big fuel tank of this CBR150R adds the muscular look when viewed from the side.

Verdict: Perfect mod!

Thailand bikers have seen and ride the 2011 Honda CBR-250R earlier than us in Malaysia. As usual, they have it modified to extract more power from the engine and finished it up in nice colours compared from the stock condition.

Performance parts for 2011 Honda CBR-250R are now available and more will be coming soon. I don’t know what is the brand of this racing footrest.

Racing footrest can lift up your feet further away from the ground and thus making taking knee-down corners easily. Also, it provides better aerodynamics when you bow down on high speed.

Honda with its CBR-250R, Kawasaki with its Ninja 250R and now it is time for Suzuki with its GW250. There are many more choices now in the market for 250cc motorcycles. Suzuki has come out with this Gw250 with much of the styling taken from the popular Suzuki B-King (1,340cc). Some also called the GW250 as the name of baby B-King.

It comes with 4-stroke engine, liquid-cooled parallel twin (inline) which gives out 26hp and 24Nm of torque.

It is great to see manufacturers fighting to get the piece of the pie from the 250cc market since this is where the beginners starts to learn riding superbikes, and if the bikes are good enough, the manufacturer might just get loyal customer who might buy the much bigger superbikes.

It is rumored that this model might comes to ASEAN market. By ASEAN, does it means it include Malaysia?
