    I am new to MCM, looks like a great resource.

    I have a Honda RR150, and was wondering on what aftermarket parts are available here in Viet Nam? I don't really care for the stock exhaust, but don't want some that "whines/screams", maybe more deeper and "throaty". It's a great bike, super comfortable for tripe here, runs great and handles the roads here really well.

    Thanks for the help in advance.

    Hope to hear from you guys soon.

    Welcome to MCM, Jimmy. Do you know whether that 150RR was made in China? I don't follow that segment much, but it would be interesting to know that Honda is exporting this from China. There's a decent thread on this bike here in MCM.

    How about some pix of your bike?

    Cheers!

    I am pretty sure the RR150 is made in China. The Honda Hero "Hunk" is also available here as well, it does not have a rear DB, but has dual shocks, slightly different frame mods. and some cosmetic finishes I don't like. I am still looking for maintenance schedules for the thing, and there are no dates or mod. numbers on it, so I don't know how old it is.

    I do know it takes i liter of oil, gas milage is awesome. Very strong motor for a 150. Overall a great traveling bike for longer trips.

    Any more advice or recommendations on this bike would be great.

    Made by Wuyang-Honda in Guangzhou which isn't far from VN. Search chinese sites in "150rr" " 幻影" will give u the idea what's available in aftermarket. taobao.com used had many interesting product BUT the "Tết" causing them closing (Courier... in holiday).
