I found a good deal on a crf 150r around me and thinking about getting it. Has anyone ridden one or does anyone own one? I want some feedback.
Crf 150r
- Thread starter 00blaster200
- Start date
I would rather have a 2stroke too but its just not practical for me. They're way too loud for where i ride.
2 strokes may be loader in some ways bit 4 stroke sound waves travel very far.so in the long run a 2 stroke is better, sound wise
4stroke thumpers produce lower dbs than 2 strokes butttt 4 strokes produce a longer sound wave causing it to carry much more farther than any 2 stroke will since they have shorter sound peaked waves causing them to to loose energy and dissipate faster..so your not going to win either way unless you invest into Q pipes n stuff
caseywoods has a nice 150f ....... 4stroke is louder then two stroke and sound waves do travel further as said above
I don't think so. All of our 4stroke bikes are much quieter than my blaster. But anyways, im just trying to see if its a good bike.
thanks drifz, i got the 150f but i've ridden a 150r. the 150r is supposed to be the loudest stock bike out there but an fmf q muffler fixes that problem with ease and gives it a great tone.
here is the most recent pic i got of my 150f
and here is a helmetcam vid of it

Im not really interested in the 150f. I want a faster bike. Those are some nice wheelies though!
thanks, i've done some longer ones but didn't catch them on cam. and a 150r is definitely faster but if you're going to get one then i'd go for the 150r expert that way you won't need to upgrade again for a while.
Yea the guy is selling an expert and a little wheel. The 150r expert is a little cheaper but it doesn't look like it's in as good condition.
Here's pics of both of them. The one with black is the rb(expert) He said $1500 for the expert and $1700 for the little wheel.

yeah i'd go for the expert, it just looks to me like he bought the 150r and needed something bigger so it hasn't been touched as much. but if it was me and i had the cash then i'd definitely get the expert. it's in overall good shape only downside i see is that it may need a back tire.
I also heard that they had recalls a few years back for the swingarm and the camshaft. Is honda still fixing these for free?
i don't know about the swingarm or the camshaft but the 2008 models had a recall on the crank so you need to find out the year and find out if it has been fixed with proof of being fixed. and if it hasn't then before you buy you need to contact a honda dealership and find out if they are still fixing them.
ok that's good but just to be sure i would still call a honda dealership and find out what all years had recalls and for what. it may save you cash in the long run.
