The design and size
In general we see both are on a similar segment, i.e. the naked bike commuter, with
a sharp design nuance sport.
All-new Honda CB150R was introduced officially in August 2015, whereas the New
V-ixion Advance launched by Yamaha in may 2015.
With a length of 1925 mm, width 720 mm, and height 1030 mm, the NVA were
seen slimmer

than the long-sized CBR150 2019 mm,

width 719

mm,

and high

1039 mm.

of
with the

cooling liquid. With maximum torque of 14.5 Nm at 750 rpm, the motor is also
capable of spitting out energy 16 hp at 8500 rpm. The power is transmitted through
a manual transmission 5 acceleration.
To turn on the machine, Yamaha were implemented electric starter system and
the crank manual (kick starter).
While Honda package CB150R with PGM-Fi fuel
injection 4-stroke, DOHC, single-cylinder, as well as refrigerated liquids. Motor power
achieves 17 hp at 9,000 rpm while the maximum torque generated amounted to 13.8
Nm at 7,000 rpm. Unlike the NVA, CBR150R were using manual transmission 6 rated
acceleration make the product of Honda is little more superior.
As with NVA, CB150R were equipped electric starter and manual crank to start

the engine. In this section, could not be determined accurately who is faster than
anyone, because all depends on the rider and technique of that drive applied.
Chassis/Frame
In order to support the weight of the engine, Yamaha applied order Delta Box on
the NVA. Complete with a telescopic front suspension and monocross suspension at
the back, plus prolink system. With the order then the NVA were overall

Another thing with CB150R, this motor using diamond trelis (truss frame), with a
telescopic front suspension, and swing-arm (arm swinging) single suspension on the
back. Overall weight of the motor is 136 kilograms, but not including fuel when filled
full of as many as 12 liters.

Wheels and braking system

Both have adopted the completeness of braking with pairing a disk disc. Each of the
two caliper at the front and single rear caliper.
17-inch diameter front wheel rims on the NVA were bandaged dimensional tire 90/80.
Whereas in the same sized rear wheel rims, rubber round sizes 120/70 is considered
enough to support the movement of the motor.
In this sector the CB150R arguably superior by adopting the wider wheel rims size
even though its diameter is the same as the NVA.
Tire size 100/80 wrap front rims,

while the

rear wheel

rims were

fitted which

measured 130/70.
