Built around Honda's enduro - offroad motorcycle platform, the 2009 Honda CRF150R2 features a 149 cc (9.1 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 22.3 HP (16.2 kW) at 12,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 13.6 Nm (10 lb-ft) at 10,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 149.7 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (10,000 rpm) and peak power (12,500 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the CRF150R2 measures 77 kg (170 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.29 HP/kg (3.45 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 866 mm (34.1 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,285 mm (50.6 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 4.3-liter (1.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
