Honda offers 12 liters of fuel carrying capacity while its overall weight is 135 kg. The seat height for CBR150R is 787 mm, making it a great option for shorter riders.

This generation of design language is inspired from bigger CBR models, claiming features like LED front headlights, sharp tail section and dual disc brakes. 2018 CBR150R measures 1983 mm in length, 694 mm in width and 1038 mm in height. It comes with a 130/70-17 rear tyre that helps CBR150R gain the maximum traction possible at the moment.
