Same here bud, same here! If we didn't have the memories to look back on with how much fun we've had on 2-wheels with friends over the years, getting old would suck even more lol! No problem at all G R, as always I really appreciate the support...

Ive not owned a bike since I was 16 and im 63 now..The amount of tech and race build quality in a bike like this is mindblowing...I didnt even know these were being made till I saw a youtube video and a guy was driving this cool little machine.. These look like works bikes from previous eras...Imagine, in the time of the xr75, if a bike like this suddenly appeared amidst that time period..people would have been speechless.. 24 hp is very decent in this sized bike and weight.. to put that in perspective, the 1973 cr125 elsinore 2 stroke, a pure race bike of the time and one that set the world on its ear because in terms of power, abt 22 hp, handling and weight abt 180lbs, nothing could touch it...This crf actuall has More hp and almost identical weight and vastly superior suspension...Granted Alot of yrs have passed but its amazing that such tech and build quality has become available to the consumer

Just rode a 2024 150RB. Super fun, the power to weight ratio is just nuts. I really want to buy one.

Honda should look into updating this since kids now days have to ride a 250f if they wants to compete. Going from an 85 or even a 125 to a 250f is soooooo different from what their used to. The 150rb is so close to being the best super mini ever made but it’s stuck in 2007 still. Efi would be nuts

I just bought a 2009 to ride with my son. I would highly recommend you get one. I’m 48, 5’8”, 190 lbs. I love it. It rips plenty, and is much easier for me to throw around than a big frame bike. Plus my boy can move into it when he outgrows his KX65. Your story reminded me of my XR80 when I was a kid.

I love my 150rb! Bought a used one last fall needing a complete engine overhaul, then converted to run mini motard. Most fun I have had on a motorcycle. If Honda updates the 150r to fuel injection, then I'll quickly get the n line for a new model.

@@litowid I don't know what your two wheel experience is, but I don't usually recommend a 150r as a first bike. It's meant for the track, and doesn't have a fan to keep it cool when you stop moving. If you ride a bicycle around and push limits(I rode BMX at your age), then you could learn to control a 150r. You just need to respect the machine, and know it can hurt you if you get things really wrong. Getting some basic moto gear first is always recommended. Minimum a good helmet, boots, and gloves. Personally I would recommend an air cooled trail style bike to start on. Learn to ride it, handle a clutch and shifting gears, then you are better prepared for something like a 150r. I had a lot of street riding motorcycle experience on my R6 before getting my 150r, so it wasn't my "first" bike, but just my first dirt bike

i'd like to see them put electric start on it and make the plastics more rigid like the 250 and 450

Is it a pain in the rear end to rejet it when you go from flatlands to mtns? Do you have to remove tank or plastics to get to the carb or can it be reached from the side? I get tired of rejetting my 660 Rhino when we go up in altitude as we make stops along the way. Thanks dm

im hoping to get one of these from southern honda powersports cause its the only one i can find

I love everything about this honda, its perfect for a light guy like me, somebody plz tell me is it a good quality bike that's fun ?

It's 2023 now and I wish they would have beefed up the suspension on the F models or if anything made it adjustable. I was looking at buying a 250F but now I'm almost thinking about grabbing one of these 150's for about the same price I feel the 150 is a better value.

Hey mate, im about 5,8. Im just wondering if this bike would be the right size for me. Amazing video by the way.

UPDATE: Grandson earned (grades, attitude, skills) a 2024 crf150rb. This baby 250 is a BEAST! We swapped the 38 pilot jet with a 42 for easier starts. She's still a bit choppy so looking at Tokyomods full jet kit & fuel meter screw. Great investment. He'll be on this bike for a while. Great review! Thanks for the schooling. Grandson is currently racing a '22 crf110f that we pimped out. I'm thinking 150r when he moves up rather than the 125. Hey, if it ain't broke... right? I'm all about "built like a tank" especially, something that's gonna be thrashed & crashed. ✌️from Galveston County, TX #braplife

My daughter got a 2023 CRF 125 FB and she already wants to start modding it. She’s rode horses all her life at a competition level for over 10 years, so going over the handlers on this (Which she has) is nothing compared to a horse (Which she has many times). I didn’t know how much she’d like it but after 2 tanks of gas she’s already wanting something with more power. If the 150R was fuel injected I would’ve likely bought it. Kids don’t want to screw around with carburetors like I did when I was a kid. They just want to start it and ride.

I think keeping this bike lightweight and simple is the way to go. Fuel injection would be good if it was not going to add weight.

Is it good for kids who are experienced because I am almost 13 and have had many bikes before and plan to get a new Honda crf 150 r soon

I'm about 5'8" and 160lbs, will this bike be a good fit for me? Also, can you get an aftermarket fan for the radiators to help keep them cooler? I've seen them on other bikes so I was just curious.

It just depends on how fast you want to go and how much maintenance you want to do, as well as how much $$ you want to spend. The 125F models are more of your "regular" dirt bike where's there's not much maintenance to it but with that comes a slower bike when compared to this 150R race bike. Whether or not it would be "good for you" would be contingent on a lot of questions I'd have to ask you etc but could you ride it? Oh yeah!
