Kymco CK1-150


Kymco introduced the CK1-150 with four-valve configuration which sells at 12,980 yuan. The bike has four various colors, white red, black, green, white. The CK1-150 overall shape and configuration is same to the older brother, CK1-125, except for the engine.

CK1-150's main selling point is the engine. The new engine produce by R & D Gwangyang has 149 cc ,4-valve, EFI, water-cooled engine with high horsepower, low fuel consumption, high torque, low vibration, high durability, and low noise. Of course, this is the official said, believe it or not. But the benefits of four-valve are obvious, and this compared to the second valve 150 popular domestic models still have a great advantage.


The CK1-150 head is the same shape and function as 125 model. Halogen headlamps plus LED eyebrow lights on both sides. Set two rows of LED lights beside headlight eyebrows. Different from 125 model, CK1-150 upgraded taillights to 16 LED lamp beads, modeling and effects have improved significantly. Dashboard shape is similar too, but having some upgraded with the LCD screen. The right side is the tachometer plus a variety of instrument lights display, the left gear indication LCD screen, speed, fuel gauge, mileage and time. Five stalls plus the neutral N has a different display position.


Another obvious change is the two stout inverted front fork. It seems, now inverted fork 150 has become a domestic trend. Rear Center shock now multi-adjustable. For braking systems, CK1-150 equipped with a 276mm front disc 220mm rear, the front and rear brakes are unidirectional dual piston, the brake for a 150-level bikes should be sufficient enough. It equipped with 17-inch pieces of type wheels, paint work in general. New front and rear tires are positive, but also for cost control. Front Wheel Size 90/80-17 and rear is 120/80-17.


CK1-150 sitting high parameter is unclear, feel should be at 780 or 790 mm. Sitting relatively upright, unlike other street bikes. This single-cylinder engine is very good, do not know how to behave after pulled speed. In addition, CK1-150 reached 13.6 liters fuel tank, battery life should be good.


CK1-150 has 9.5 kw power, lower than the Spring 150nk of 10.7 kw, higher than Honda Phantom 9.0 kw; maximum torque is 12.6 Nm, are higher than the latter two. But it is vehicle weight higher than the latter two, but the wheelbase is shorter than the other two. It can be inferred that acceleration and handling should be better than the Phantom, but the tail speed can exceed 150nk hard to say. The actual driving up, Who fastest, or to know answers to evaluation.
