Honda NSR 150 SP Specs

This is the Thai Honda NSR 150 SP. It comes standard in Repsol Racing colors. The SP was built with winning the ASEAN Cup in mind as well as being the ultimate 150 cc bike in Thailand plus other East Asian countries. Power is up by 2.5 horsepower compared with the RR model. This bike is the King of the Road in Thailand for 150 cc bikes.

One of the most noticeable differences between the SP and the RR are the rear swingarm suspension. The SP has the cool looking PRO ARM similar to the MC28 NSR 250. Plus the rear tire size is slightly larger. Also the chamber and silencer have been revised for a improvement in performance while not effecting emissions.

The test rider was amazed with the feeling of the bike. His comments were " This bike is for real ! It's brakes and suspension do exactly what you want them to do ! The sound of the engine and the pipe are true two stroke happiness ! Top speed is nearly 200 km/h !! " The actual top speed is much more closer to 180km/h. These were the comments of the test rider.

The oil tank holds 1.5 liters and requires the removal of the rear tandem seat cushion to reach the lever on the bottom of the side to open up the oil tank.

The meters offer a clear view with the large centered tachometer and the speedometer reads up to 240 km/h plus. A temperature gauge keeps you informed before any over heating problems occur.

The bodywork of the SP is the same as the RR. The only difference being the Repsol colors. Now in Japan, two stroke motorcycles over 50 cc in displacement have been discontinued. Recently a few of these Thai SP models have been showing up in bike shops throughout Japan. Their price between 420,000 Yen to 430,000.
