2022 Honda RS150R, Radiate Grey Metallic
Updated for the Malaysia market is the 2022 Honda RS150R, now priced at RM8,299 excluding road tax, insurance and registration. This is an increase of RM100 over the 2020 Honda RS150R price of RM8,199 while while the RS150R Repsol Edition, previously priced at RM8,499, is omitted.
New for 2022 are three colour options, Vivacity Red, Pearl Nightfall Blue and Radiate Grey Metallic with revised graphics. Also updated is the RS150R’s engine, which is now Euro 4 compliance.
Otherwise, there are no other changes to the RS150R, with power coming from the single-cylinder, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder mill, fed by Honda’s PGM-Fi. Power is listed at 15.82 hp at 9,000 rpm with 13.6 Nm of torque at 7,000 rpm, compared to the previous numbers of 15.3 hp at 9,000 rpm and 13.5 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm.

Running gear for the RS150R is also unchanged with braking done with single hydraulic discs with the front disc measuring 296 mm and the rear 190 mm. Wheel sizing and tyres is 90/80-17 in front and 120/70-17 at the back while suspension is done with telescopic forks and preload-adjustable monoshock.
Small changes in the weight and seat height, now set at 119 kg and 786 mm, compared to 122 kg and 764 mm on the pre-facelift model. Fuel capacity is 4.5-litres and a monochrome LCD display in the cockpit shows all the necessary information.
I thought RS-X is to replace RS150R?
Me too. Just like Y16 to Y15. I think both are sold side by side. Price and style differences may be the reason.
nice to have a bump up in power output.
I thought all RS150R are stock clearance. never thought of seeing 2022 version of it.
BTW how many out there would prefer the older looks compared to the much sportier RS-X?
Got few changes if u can spotted them. Rsx disc, tyre, ekzos. More solid back capang signal rubber bracket. The sticker design so minimal like the rs v1 2016. For those who prefer headlight on the head over, but then no led tail lamp, monochrome display and non flipable footrest like wanna clearing unsold v2 parts.
what type of gear this motor uses
Similar to yamaha 135 lc facelift
Add seat height? Me 174cm on older model already susah pijak tanah. But the design is still slim and garang. Thumbs up for that.
Kinda like honda wave 125cc vs Honda future also 125cc. Kinda same thing but different external looks.
Like yamaha Mt 15 vs Y16 vs Y15 vs y16. Different looks but basically the same internals.
