Overview

Introducing the 2015 Keeway Superlight 150, a custom-cruiser that perfectly embodies the spirit of freedom and individuality on two wheels. Positioned as an entry-level motorcycle, the Superlight 150 caters to new riders looking for a blend of style, performance, and comfort without breaking the bank. With its sleek lines and classic cruiser aesthetics, this bike draws attention wherever it goes, making it an ideal companion for both city commutes and leisurely weekend rides. At the heart of the Superlight 150 is a robust single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that displaces 150.10 ccm (9.16 cubic inches). Producing a commendable 11.80 HP at 8,500 RPM and torque peaking at 11.00 Nm at 6,000 RPM, this motorcycle offers a delightful balance of power and efficiency. Riders can expect a top speed of 95 km/h (59 mph), making it suitable for urban travel and short highway jaunts alike. The five-speed gearbox, combined with a wet, multiple-plate clutch, ensures smooth shifting and a responsive ride, while the air-cooled system keeps the engine operating at optimal temperatures for long-lasting enjoyment. The Superlight 150 is not just about performance; it also boasts a range of features designed to enhance the riding experience. The bike's bassinet frame contributes to its stability and comfort, complemented by telescopic front forks and a rear suspension that absorbs bumps with ease. Measuring in at a manageable 134 kg (295.4 pounds) and featuring a seat height of 730 mm (28.7 inches), the Superlight 150 is accessible for riders of various heights. Its 15-liter fuel tank provides ample range for extended journeys, while the dual starting system—electric and kick—offers flexibility in various conditions. With a striking gray color option, this bike stands out in both style and functionality, capturing the essence of the cruiser genre. **

Pros

  • Accessible Power: The 150.10 ccm engine provides a balanced power delivery, making it perfect for beginners and urban riders.
  • Comfortable Ride: With its lightweight frame and well-calibrated suspension, the Superlight 150 ensures a smooth and enjoyable riding experience.
  • Stylish Design: The classic cruiser look, combined with modern features, appeals to both new riders and seasoned enthusiasts alike.

Cons

  • Limited Power for Highway Use: While it performs well in urban settings, the top speed may not satisfy those looking for extended highway cruising.
  • Basic Braking System: The drum brake at the rear may lack the responsiveness and performance of modern disc brakes, particularly in emergency situations.
  • Single Cylinder Engine: The single-cylinder design may lead to vibrations at higher RPMs, potentially affecting long-distance comfort for some riders.
