2012 Honda CRF150RB Expert[edit | edit source]

2012 Honda CRF150RB Expert

The smallest racing-specced bike in the family, the 2011 CRF150RB Expert is basically an "evo" version of the 150R CRF MX machine. Tuned to perfection to deliver the best performance in the hands of an experienced off-road racer, this machine is a full-on motocross beast. It may seem small and tame, but by all means, looks are deceiving.

In fact the new Honda CRF150RB Expert comes with so many improvements for 2011 that one could hardly miss it for the racing beast it is. The bike comes with a new cylinder head, piston, carburetor and cam shaft, revised suspensions and capable to deliver more torque and more power across the entire rev band.

2013 Honda CRF150RB Expert

Based on the same platform as the CRF150R, the 2012 CRF150RB Expert is a bigger machine, engineered for taller riders. If your aspiring champion is a tad too big for the base 150cc MX machine, then the Expert version should suit him or her just fine. A bike sporting the same racing nerve as the rest for the CRF-R family, the CRF150RB Expert brings in bigger wheels, revised suspensions and the same legendary reliability.

Just like the CRF150R, the Expert version comes with a new FCR carburetor, a new forged piston and updated graphics inspired by the bigger machines in the family.
