Been using Honda RS150 for the past 1 year. So far I didnt face any problem with the bike. Personally I think this bike is good enough for city ride.

i have no vibration issue on my future(carb). but engine rod spoiled below 23000km.

lucky you..it's quite a famous issue for Honda Future..

i hv tested future wave fi 2017. new bike few months old.

i would say the vibration is the engine's characteristic..
it oni got 4gear, so @ top gear @ 60kmh. can feel the small bakul very very buzzy..

no tacho, so dono wht rpm..
for sure alot rider kenot tahan 60kmh. n will pulas to 100 or over. so i can imagine how the vibs will go..

so if ride like tht, sure very fast go longgar.. esp if ride long distance everyday. if one day use like 30km-50km mebe can tahan abit..

I don't really mind for the bike to go longgar, I just mind if my bone gone longgar. 2 hours ride everyday with vibration will broke this brittle body of mine.

as the bike is kinda new. i din feel it on my butt tht much. hands ya can feel. feet oso can feel..
but if i touch the basket.. kinda like whoa.. buzz kinda high..

n tht was oni 60kmh liddat..

i think u hv to get kapchai at least 5 gear punya.. wit abit more overdrive feel..

Hi. is that 2018 version KTM? heard previous model had air box problem. how's the new version?
Pls share more on riding experience. pros & cons. thinking to get one

yes. after kenah. then i go ask around. quite common for most people.

it has good distance 200km per tank. and convenient helmet space.

But already modify the exhaust?

4th gear at 60kmh? i usually rode 4th gear at 80-100..but for a 125cc, 60kmh at top gear is very surprisingly low

my future got problem now..engine need to set very high rev..due to too hard to start in the morning..resulting in bad fuel consumption (rm5 every 2 days)

some shop will give you mod exhaust foc..

lol.. 60kmh is the speed tht i tested the bike @ 4th gear.

of cos it is not the max speed of the bike n sure it can go faster

for me i don like to ride a bike screaming @ high rpm

it is very stressfull to feel the bike kena stress liddat.. lol

sumore tis engine is very vibby, ekzos oso noisy.. lol..

oh i see i thought it can only capped at 60

currently using fz150i for daily commute. It wont failed you and you can always lenjan it for a long time, also reduced the visit count to fuel station as well. But please keep it standard. Been using fz for 10 years already.

what's ur fuel consumption in KM by one litter? i can achieve 48km/L with Max throttle almost all the time for honda future

RS150R
48KM/L if speed below 80km/J
40KM/L if around 95Km/J
33KM/L if i goes to 125km/J

not sure. i always max throttle one..but never calculate. 2 years back, I can do rm5 per 5 days

u eday lenjan of cos fast longgar la.. lol..

if switch to china bike better don lenjan too much..

everyday using nkve cannot ride slow lor..

Switched to Vespa Sprint 150 3V from a Barley Davidson. as my daily communting weapon..

As for Vespa.. Yamaha Y15R and Honda RS150 faster.. however I can safely sit on the middle lane of NKVE crusing 100 km/h All day..

Maybe when i managed to pull out bank heist.. will plonk in a 200cc bore up kit and an akra exhaust..

Vespa huh? Not really into scooter type bike, but appreciate the view. How is the vespa? Is the fc is good? Maintenance cost? Ride and handling?

The price is a bit steep for me.

Well to be honest, its a lifestyle item.. not really daily jepunis machine.. but hey its 100% made in Vietnam with weird Italian design.. (like 3v engine - why can't they put 4Valve SOHC like even Taiwanese scooter done that long time ago)..

FC is full tank 6 to 7 Litre can go up to almost 200km? but mostly 150 to 170 km already had amber light on..

Strong pickup pulls, running out of juice after 80 km/h.. struggling going to 100 km/h but the meter is accurate.. only 3 km/h different from GPS reading.. so when i reached the 110 km/h top speed (long time).. I am way ahead faster than the average had laju kebangsaan...

Maintenance.. its a premium scoot.. belting original cost you around 250 Rm.. and only last for 10k km.. roller about 80 to 100 rm to change per set.. engine oil changed ever 3k km.. using 10W-40 .. and has oil filter.. will set you back 60 Rm for ori vespa brand.. (more expensive than my harley filter)

Handling.. since I am used with the chaotic nature of riding a 1950's bike design.. I would say Vespa is much more stable.. however if you want to compare with jepunis scooter or kapchai stability.. don't.. (unless u change both shock absorber with Ohlins which set you back like buying a 2nd hand kapchai price a pair)..
