CFMoto's all-new 150NK naked will hit Aussie showrooms in March, priced at $3090 (plus on-road costs) and replacing the Leader in the 150cc commuter space.
The bike is powered by a SOHC two-valve liquid-cooled engine which is good for 11.8hp (8.8kW) at 8500rpm and 10.6Nm at 7000rpm. The 150NK tracks on a tubular steel twin-spar frame, and the look has been crafted by the Austrian-based Kiska Design, which has been associated with European juggernaut KTM since 1992. The 150NK is the work of Kiska stylist Bjorn Shuster.
Most of the nakeds in the local LAMS space are 250cc and above, with the Honda CB125E, and Kymco CK125 a few of the exceptions. The 150NK will now join them, and its other vital stats include a 142kg wet weight, 785mm seat height and 10-litre fuel tank.
“When you look at the style changes between the CFMoto Leader and the 150NK, the company has come along in leaps and bounds, something which can be directly attributed to the relationship CFMoto has with Kiska," said Michael Poynton from CFMoto Australia.
As a launch special, CFMoto is offering a limited number of 150NK gift packs with every motorcycle purchased in March 2015.
The pack includes a sports motorcycle jacket, limited-edition t-shirt and a pair of CFMoto motorcycle racing gloves. The gift pack is valued at $300.
Later in the year, a 400NK will also be launched, as well as an adventure bike called the 650AK.
