never heard of one, but the capacity indicates it is a bike not designed for uk markets (they use the 125 version of the 150's available elsewhere) getting your hands on one could be tough!

Looks interesting (I googled and came up with the same link above when it was first posted).
Sadly it may be more of a budget bike, along the lines of the NSR150.

I'm guessing this is supposed to appeal to riders who want the advantages of a small capacity bike (i.e. good handling), but without the stigmatization of a 125cc?

No. As mentioned above it's for countries where the learner laws restrict you to 150cc, not 125cc.

Is that photo squashed a little width-ways? It looks a bit odd!

Yeah the pixel dimenions for the above are 640x500. It should be 640x480 Thumbs Up

In other words, its been stretched height-ways.

Sure that's not the line of text added at the bottom?

No, it's in the actual image properties. The line of text has probably been added on top of existing pixels, in this case, part of the ground.

It should be 640x480 since it's a standard image dimension. Multiply them by a coefficient of 1.6 or 2 in order to get two common desktop resolutions, 1024x768 and 1280x960, respectively.

640x480:

Not a bad looking bike, but I bet it's a pain to insure over here?

This may be the case, but the white line exactly 20 pixels, which would suggest that without it, it would be your 'standard' 640x480, though i see no reasons this should be the case.

I would suspect that to some degree we are both right - the algorithm that was used was wrong, maybe, so it actually increased the whole picture by 20 pixels before adding a 20 pixel line of text, rather than just adding the 20 pixel line of text.


Anyway, erm, motorbikes or something, they're good, aint they? Smile

Not liking that kwak, looks skinny and poorly put together, Doesn't look like a quality machine at all. I think G had it spot on when he said it was a budget bike like the NSR150. Only thing is, the NSR looks better in terms of quality.

While the NSR150 looks quite good, I read up on them a while ago and apparantly they aren't too great either.
