- Suzuki RG150
The Suzuki RG150 was a 148 cc two-stroke road
motorcycle produced bySuzuki inThailand . The bike was produced from 1996 until 2000. In 1998, it was selected as the 2nd best new motorcycle of 1998 byMotor Trend magazine. It was produced almost exclusively forThailand although around 100 were exported toNew Zealand .Overview
The frame was made of box cut steel and had a banana-shaped rear
swingarm . It had a single mono shock on the rear with a singledisk brake . The front suspension was a traditional telescopic fork also with a single disk brake. The wheels were tri-spoke eniki mag type wheels. The engine was a single cylinder water-cooledtwo-stroke engine . It had a six-speed close ratiogearbox with a kickstart. The engine featured AETC (Automatic Exhaust Timing Control), basically a valve in the exhaust port of the engine. At low RPM it restricted the exhaust gases so the engine produced moretorque , at high RPM (approx 7800 RPM) it opened up to increase top RPM power. The exhaust also had anexpansion chamber to give better top-end power. Maximum power was 36 hp (27 kW) and top speed was 180 km/h, top speed was limited to 180 km/h due to the gearing allowing the motor to hit therev limiter in top gear. The bike featured a full fairing which was unusual for such a small bike.pecification
