The new Honda CBR150R Repsol Edition has been unveiled in Malaysia, where it is being sold for the equivalent of $3,024 USD. The rest of Asia is expected to quickly follow Malaysia in offering the new race-replica liveried entry-level sportbike in the market. The Asian market has long been on the receiving end of small-displacement sportbikes bearing similar styling and liveries as their bigger, performance-oriented siblings sold in the west.
The CBR150R Repsol Edition immediately stands out because of its unique color scheme, which was inspired by Honda's MotoGP bike. As a result, it has an orange exterior with red accents and the Repsol logo on the side and front panels. The wheels are painted in orange, as well. The fact that it is a limited-production model, though, makes it even more unique. The CBR150R Repsol Edition will be a highly sought-after model for anyone looking for a sporty yet manageable daily commuter, as only 800 units will be allocated to Malaysia.
