My Honda SH150i Walkaround

My first walkaround of my scooter. A Honda sh150i. A bit dry, my bad. Still getting used to this camera business.

Feel free to ask me any other questions.

I am looking at getting either the SH150i or the Aprilia Scarabeo 200. Any thoughts on which one is the better choice? I would probably choose honda because its a reliable brand but my only concern is whether its fast enough for the freeway @ 65mph. Most of my driving is on surface streets but it would be good to always have the freeway as an option.

@eric2530 I actually looked at the Scarabeo too and was debating on it too. I went for the Honda for the same reason you mentioned. I actually went onto the freeway accidentally with mine and she didn't do TOO bad. I would still probably go with nothing less than a 250cc scooter or motorcycle on a freeway. During rush hour you're totally fine on your scooter on a freeway though. Especially when it's a parking lot like it is here in LA hahaha...

No doubt I'd really enjoy this scoot: practical, great "blood lines" (Honda resale, service & qulaity) , ridiculously good mpg and 16-inch tires. But $5,000 OTD for a 150cc scoot? Heck, I'll probably GET one this Summer, anyway. ;)

Hahaha yeah. The price is a bit steep, but I can't complain too much. I really love how she performs. Really great overall scooter.

Thanks for this video. This is the scooter I plan to buy before I move to Morocco (Job) . I like the fact that it is fuel ingected, water cooled and has 16" wheels. I think the magic ingredients to a sound bike. Plus, its a Honda engine. I learned more from your video that I did with the salemans at the showroom. There is no doubt in my mind that the SH150i is the way to go for me. Again, thanks for taking the time to do this excellent video.

No problem man!! Hope you enjoy her as much as I do. I love mine!!

Hello Sir,

Great video thank you. May I ask you a quick question? I just bought my used Honda SH150i 2 days ago and noticed that on the same sticker that has the VIN#, the stickler is located on below the ignition, center, mine says SH150D, even though it is the 2010Honda SH150i. May I ask you if yours says SH150i or SH150D on the sticker? Thank you

You said 80 Km per tank which is like 1.5 gallons? that's only 33 miles per gallon...

Seriously, anyone who is considering this scooter should look at the Aprilia Sportcity 250 ie. Faster, cheaper, and has both front and back disc brakes. You should not be taking this 150 on the interstate and if you shouldn't be doing that, then why not either go up to a scooter you CAN take on the interstate (like the Sportcity 250) or just stick with a 125 and save over $1,000. Lots of good 125s out there.

I buy a new tires from michelin or pirelli when I buy a new scooter becase tires on them really bad.

Top speed? Depends on how much weight the bike is carring. With a lone 175 lb. rider, I should think the Sh150i would top out at close to 70 mph. With my heavy (250 lbs +) keester at the wheel, top speed is 60 mph on level ground.

[welderman27]

what is the top speed

Just bought the Honda Sh150i last week! It was technically "used" at the dealer, as she had 30 miles on her. After one week I'm pleased, except for the brakes and lack of even a small front glove compartment. How's your Sh150i doing after what..11 months now?
