Our verdict

The CB 150F costs Rs 499,900 (Blue and Silver Rs 503,900) and the GR 150 Rs 552,900. Both have about 150cc, 5 gears, self-start, a front disc and alloy wheels. The CB 150F has a balancer-equipped SOHC engine, a 13-litre tank, 168 mm ground clearance and 124 kg dry weight. The GR 150 has a 12.5-litre tank, 165 mm ground clearance and a 133 kg vehicle weight (not a dry figure).

Suzuki publishes power (8.2 kW) and torque (11.5 Nm) for the GR 150; Atlas Honda does not publish them for the CB 150F. The GR 150 has the fuller dash with a tachometer.

The CB 150F is cheaper, has a larger tank and Honda's stronger resale and dealer network, which makes it our pick for most riders.

Specs side by side

A value is marked only where better is clear-cut — a lower price, more cc, a bigger tank, more claimed km/l, more ground clearance, a higher rating, disc over drum, self start over kick — and only when the gap is big enough for a rider to notice. Differences too small to feel, like a cc or two or a tenth of a rating point, are left unmarked. “—” means the figure is not published.
