Wow Max, what an amazing innovative machine, you're right if Honda put them in production it'd be a best seller, getting any inspiration for your 600cc Goliath, fantastic wheelie mate.
Haha Thanks Kevin, as far as wheelies go it was't massive but pretty good by my standards lol Andre builds a real nice bike, so it was cool to pick his brains in regards to our 600 build :-D
Bought a 2019 KTM excf 250 and put a 2004 GasGas ec 300 2 stroke engine in it. Engine is so perfekt and chassie is awesome. Turned out to be the best combo i have ever riden so far! 2-stroke for life 👍

Another cracking bike, Max , 150cc 2stroke more usable for the average punters. So much fun without ripping your arms out of their sockets. Another sick bike mate.
Made a YamaHonda many years ago. Took the IT175 motor I like so well and put it in a 1983 CR125 frame. nice ride for a lot of years. for trail riding it was nice. The top speed was good too and the 175 had longer range and did not need re built as fast as the 125
That bike is one of the best looking bikes I've seen. The new Honda + 150 SICK. The Japanese under estimate how fast they would leave the show rooms across the world. 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

Shame there is fck all honda CR about it 😂😂 absolutely nothing. It's a crf450r rolling chassis with a ktm sx150 power plant .....like me buying a ford Sierra rolling chassis fitting a BMW V10 engine in it then calling it a fcking Escort cosworth 😂😂😂😂😂 come on get a grip ffs
There is a guy who made a kx 150 but there's nothing kx ......its got a kxf450 frame Ktm sx150 nothing kx 😂😂😂😂 Like me buying a Mercedes SLS rolling chassis, fitting a V12 ferrari engine then calling it a lamborghini 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Actually, you're right. I didn't pay attention to the seat at first. But black, at least on the sides of the cover, would create some seriously needed contrast.
I reckon you guys should make a crazy 2 stroke crosser using a Yammy V4, but the chambers might take a bit of work to get them to fit well, but with that power and traction issues I would definitely go for a supermoto 👍
@999lazer in the supermini class at BMB, the top guys all run KTM 85's bored and stroked to 112cc, the they're ace. On tarmac with 12" wheels, you should come join us for a practice day I'll lend you my Buccimoto
It’s kinda cool but I don’t really see the point, the conversions made sense before KTM had top notch small bores but I can’t see how it would be as good as a KTM with a purpose built 125 frame.
This is definitely a fair argument, I really rate the KTM 125/150. But some guys just love Honda and a build like this get's them going. I'd be really interested to see how this bike feels on track compared to the KTM. Thanks for taking the time to watch dude
I'm struggling with this one. Its cool but is it better than a 150SX? Especially when its in a 450 rolling chassis. The bike (frame) looks too big for the engine in it being honest. Then there's cost. How much would this cost vs getting an AF 125 and going through it top to bottom?
Rappa sells them for around 10-15k depending on chassis and engine choices. It actually makes a lot of sense if you like kawy/honda chassis and suspension but want a 2 stroke. The weight of the chassis is roughly the same (some 2 stroke chassis are also heavier than 4 strokes ones). Rappa also makes yzf’s with 2 stroke engines because lots of people like it more than a normal yz
The comment below from Nazzy has some good points and info on this. But as you say how would it actually compare against the KTM...I'd be very interested to find out
@@999lazer I think it would be great to find out. I mean we all know the chassis difference between orange and red but the orange chassis is specific to that motor which could be a big advantage or mean nothing depending how far into it they went. I think you know what you have to do if you can pry it out (or one like it if there is another) for the day at a track. Oh and sick wheelie by the way. 👌
@@siraff4461 sure, the ktm chassis is made for that engine, but I can tell you by experience that if you learned on a Japanese bike you’ll have a hard time switching to ktm frame and suspension. Rappa has been very good at creating his own business around that and actually puts a lot of engineering in these bikes, it’s not as simple as bolting the engine to the frame. He also said he won’t do any of these bikes anymore since it’s really time consuming to actually be able to build a fast bike (he will only build yzf frame 125’s and 250’s). I will be really curious to see a ktm compared to that bike, but I think most of the responses would be too subjective to actually be valid, it’s either you really like it or you hate it.
too bad Mr. Honda hates two-stroke right from the start but one day he accepted that two strokes were faster (roadracing) and he switched to two stroke. but honda was very fast by giving up twostrokes soon as possible.. look how long they didnt changed the last version of the CR 500.. they didnt care about them and that was a shame. i would surely buy a 150 CR or a proper 250/300 Endurobike from Honda
Someone can correct me if i'm wrong but in the UK i'm pretty sure you can race the 150 in a mixed 125/250f class. At club level that's the case I'm sure

Like a 300, what class would you race a 150 in? Fun but obsolete. 😮
Someone can correct me if i'm wrong but in the UK i'm pretty sure you can race the 150 in a mixed 125/250f class. At club level that's the case I'm sure

Such a shame
How much do I need 2 kidneys??
Haha Medically you only need one right? lol Thanks for watching Pete
If honda actaully made 2t 150 itd definitely be a lil smaller frame like maybe frame size between a 125 and 250 would be used be probaby would just slap it in the 125 frame and call it a day
How much does it weigh?
I'll take a 2 cyl 125
Am I missing something? Isn’t a Honda 150r a small 85 sized bike ??
the 150 honda make is a four stroke, this is a 2 stroke :)
Crank ends up too far away from front wheel, nobody talks about that, fine for a jumpy modern track, but not for old school turn track
so basically not a cr if it has a ktm engine just has Honda graphics
its the latest generation honda chassis
Wouldn’t you just build a cr 125 to a 150?
first
I love the TM s***150cc fuel injected 844 horsepower
