Hi MOnster!

My views:
1. Nsrr is not the original sp production which i think so. Bcos the model type is different (Nsr150SP and Nsr150RR).

2.Nsrr is swing arm if u notice that, meaning two arm is hold the rear tyre. As for SP is different, its clearly stated PRO ARM.

3.In term of looks I still find that SP look nicer( no offence to Nsrr riders). So far still haven't got a chance to see the performance of Nsrr, cos no friends riding that bike leh.

4.I do agree with you that the difference in price between the two bikes is S$1000, which i did see myself at the motorshow. Anyway just my small point of views. No offence huh....

Pro-arm is the term Honda use for their swing arm technology, if I'm not wrong.

NSR150SP is single swing arm, whereas NSR150RR uses double swing arm.

Although the outside looks similar... I was told that the SP model can go faster.

Personally I prefer the SP model, mainly becoz of the swing arm. Single swing arm looks nicer. The original paintwork for the SP is nicer also.

I think, both the models don't really differ much.

I'm not too sure about the specs and stuff...maybe someone else can provide them?

sp = sports production
rr = race replica

the swing arm and pro arm thing affects the cornering stability i think...proarm better actually but sp only got 1 left side, the right side no support so left corner stable Smile

l3stat SG

huh? "proarm is better, but SP only got one left side" isn't that what it's meant to be? right side no support so the left corner is not as good?

hahaha... no offence man, race spec ducatis use single sided swing-arms as well. as far as the design is concerned, there are no flaws in it. other factors do play a part, but a ducati's stability in a corner is undisputable. so long as that when the wheel is mounted using a proper torque setting, don't see how one corner can be less stable than the other. don't mind explain? Smile

no lah single arms are meant for convience (change tyre etc) and ease of alignment.

anyway motorshow the price that is stated right, is only the vehicle price, so haven't include insurance roadtax IU etc. in the end oso 6k. no diff lah.

there the r6 machine price put 14.8k right?
later go ask the official he tell me 17k, becoz haven't add insurance etc.

sakaratulz SG

an old timer tell me one hor....he said that sp proarm left side so left side very stable wan, right side no support so cornering not as good as left wan...thats wat i heard ok but personally i think is quite true Smile

l3stat SG

lol.... okay... i'll go tell my friend on his 916 to watch his right corners... Mr. Green

jungleboy111 SG

Where got such thing as one side corner more stable becoz its single pro arm???

Actually, with single swing arm, it'll be better

MoNsTer SG

in term of power wise. any1 know the differences?

Mr. Green

Nsr150 SG

2 stroke bike always better then 4 stroke in term of power. Very Happy

MoNsTer SG

if is comparing sp and rr onli leh..
Mr. Green

SP supposed to be a little more powerful than RR, if I’m not wrong.

operator SG

That's rite. Honda works once quoted that the NSR-SP engine produces 38 hp max while the RR-model produces abt 1 hp less but bike testers only get abt 28 -32 hp. Top speed was quoted at 170 km/h stock ( if I can remember it correctly....)

keratinize SG

RR is a damn old bike... can see thousands of them in Malaysia.
it's just that dealers in S'pore seldom bring it in until recently because Honda stopped the production of SP.
SP is like the next generation of NSR150...

by the way, the PRO ARM is usually for bikes in professional racing.
when the bike comes into the pit, it'll be easier for the mechanics to change the wheel. rear wheel wears out rather fast.
PRO ARM gives better rear suspension, so Honda claims. Generally, i don't think the swing arm makes any difference but of course for the fact that PRO ARM looks definitely much better.

SP is a real beauty. Cool

Mr. Green Yah...and also haven't include 3%GST and agreement fees....blah,blah....u knw thoses motorshps are always trying to "Makan" ppl....
