The car has been in hand for a week, the current mileage of more than 500 kilometers, talk to everyone about this popular UHR150.
There are three scooters in the family, a USR125, a Scarab, and an XMAX300, why buy uhr150?
This UHR150 is bought for my wife, the main idea is that in addition to the walk, the main two of us can go out to ride together, the USR is very good, riding out is still too hard, there is no ABS, the beetle is too high, she can't ride, XMAX300 is too big, there have been lessons about riding a big pedal in place, she does not dare to touch the big pedal again. So the 150-level pedal became the most suitable choice.
In the 150 level pedal, there are three alternative vehicles UHR150, PCX160, NMAX155, appearance, the wife likes the PCX160 the most, I personally prefer the handling of the NMAX155, but finally chose the UHR150, one is that the price difference is too large, PCX160 landed high 7000 and the rear wheel does not have ABS, NMAX155 landed high 10000, the middle is the price of a 125 pedal, this is indeed a bit more, Second, in terms of product standards, Haojue is still trustworthy.
On April 6, we got on the card, and on April 7, we both went to Moganshan to ride a bicycle. The last time one person and one car went out to play, it was 13 or 14 years, we went to Many places in Anji, Qiandao Lake, Anhui South Sichuan-Tibet Line (Taoling Highway), and it was the happiest and happiest time to ride a bicycle. As the children grew up and gave birth to the second eldest, they never went out to ride together again.
Sending the kids to school, we both set off on our bikes. We are not far to Moganshan here, less than 200 kilometers back and forth, it is easier, and it is too late to come back to pick up the children from school.
After all, it is a new car, and the run-in period still has to control the rhythm. At the beginning I led the way in front, 70-80 look, to the 104 national highway, I let her in front, I just looked at the speedometer from 80 to 90, from time to time on the 100, the new car is not at all painful ah. At the traffic lights, I asked her why she was riding so fast, and she said she didn't feel so fast, the car didn't shake, and she didn't look hoarse.
When I arrived at Moganshan Yu Village, the punch point Shangshan Cafe, which is often visited by car friends, sat down for a meeting. In the spring, Moganshan is sunny, the weather is warm, the law is fluttering, the whole street is quiet and soft, leaning against the window to look at the trees outside, passers-by and the old houses opposite, sipping a cup of coffee, enjoying the long time.
The mountain roads of Moganshan are very clean, the trees and bamboo forests are lush, the flowers and grasses on both sides are colorful, the farmhouse villas and old-fashioned bungalows are scattered, riding in such an environment, the breeze is blowing, can't help but revel in it, there is no speed and passion, but the fun of riding will not be less.
Without the involvement of children, the two people went out to ride a bicycle, it seems to be back to their youth, the happiness they have been missing for a long time is back, and this moganshan ride is just the beginning. Let the ride bring some color to life, let the rhythm change somewhat, I think this is the fun that motorcycles should bring us.
The car has currently run more than 500 kilometers, for UHR150, the wife is still quite satisfied, but I think the shock absorption is a little hard, and I want to install a tail box, so that when I take the child, I have a lean, and it is also convenient to bring things. UHR150 rode for two days, and then let her ride USR125 on the feeling is not used to, the starting power difference is quite large, riding up without UHR150 stretch. So I found a new owner for the USR125 that accompanied me for 3 years. The moment I sent the car away, I was really a little reluctant, maybe it was those days of companionship.
About the UHR150 car, the recent heat is also quite high, many car friends are paying attention to this car, my advice to everyone is that if there is a chance to test drive, you must go to test drive.
150 levels of pedals are also in the past two years in the domestic heat up, the previous pedal market is basically 125 levels of small pedals dominate the transportation market, more than 250 large pedals dominate the play market, 150 levels of scooter position is more awkward, on the transportation bar, more expensive than 125, feel uneconomical, on play, power and comfort is not as good as the big pedal.
The rise of the 150 pedal heat I think there are two reasons, one is the upgrade of the demand of riders, 150 level than 125 power, more comfortable, rich configuration, high safety, flexibility can also be well to meet the commuter demand, for the more demand for the driver will be upgraded from 125 to 150; the second reason is that the 150 level of the global benchmark model PCX and NMAX into the country, leading the outbreak of this category.
Now 150 pedal products are also very much, the differentiation is also more obvious, some focus on comfort, some focus on sports, some pay attention to personalization, as long as their needs are clear, they can still buy very satisfactory products.
From the use of feelings, UHR150 is a practical route of comfortable sexual orientation of the scooter, the style is flat and stable, there is no eye-catching novel appearance, no fierce power, nor the ability to bend the curve, it is difficult to find a particularly prominent point to label the UHR150, if you use a sentence to evaluate the UHR150 - the most balanced 150 scooter within 20,000.
In terms of balance, the PCX160 can be described as the benchmark in this level, so in the following report, the PCX160 will also be used as a comparison model to see the gap between the UHR150 and the benchmark.
Power side
The power of the UHR150 is 10.6KW, which can only be said to be at an ordinary level in the 150 level, and the two-valve gas distribution method is also quite criticized. I tried the 100 km acceleration result, 22.2s, the data of the PCX160 on the same road is 20.5s, the speed of uhr150 I only ran to 108.2km/h, PCX160 ran to 111.1km/h, I weighed 85kg.
0-80 data, UHR150 and PCX160 are almost the same, 10.6/10.7, the two valves in the middle and front of the performance is still good, the back section and the four valves gap is reflected.
UHR150
PCX160
Data is only one aspect, what matters is the power output experience. Just like the PCX160, the power is by no means the biggest in this class, but the smoothness, delicacy and texture of the power may be the best in this level, and the UHR150 is the closest to the PCX160 in terms of power smoothness, fineness and texture.
If the PCX160 power running quality is used as the benchmark of the 100, the UHR150 can hit the 90s, while other models within 20,000 are basically in the early 80s.
It's a subjective rating, so what's the difference? For example, the most comfortable high-speed range for PCX160 riding is 90-100, and the power, stability and comfort at this time can still maintain a high level, while the highest speed range that UHR150 can maintain a high level is 80-90. For other models within 20,000, the acceleration capacity may be able to maintain higher speeds, but the rough feeling caused by vibration and noise will obviously affect the riding experience.
Some riders will say that my 125 can also run 90, even 100 on the front of the watch, which is not much different from 150. The difference between the calmness, stability and 150 level pedal of the ordinary 125 pedal to 90 is still quite large, and you can't just look at the data.
I hope that in the future, everyone will establish a concept of power perception: high quality power level.
Static contrast explanation
Riding posture
The wheelbase of the UHR150 is 1315, which is shorter in the 150 class, which is only 1.5 cm longer than the AFR125's 1300. However, the leg space of UHR150 is handled quite well, the length of the front oblique pedal is 405mm, my height of 179 can be placed more comfortably, the pedal length of PCX160 is 205mm, I stepped on it is the outer figure eight, and the legs should be more curved.
Height 179
Height 165
The handlebar height of the UHR150 is slightly higher than that of the PCX160, which for me is on the low side. My wife thinks that the height of this handlebar position is quite appropriate, and there is still a relationship between this and the height of the person.
If the height is relatively high, you can consider raising the handlebar, I tried the heightened PCX160, the comfort is much higher, but the PCX160 height also has drawbacks, because the handlebar soft connection itself is soft, the stability of the handlebar is reduced after the height, the handlebar shakes obviously when braking sharply, it is not practical, the handlebar of UHR150 is also a soft connection, but the stability is much better than pcX160, perhaps the impact after the modification is not too big, this should be verified later.
In terms of riding posture comfort, I think the UHR150 is higher than the PCX160, and in terms of saddles, the UHR150 is also wider and softer.
Braking aspect
Many riders upgrade from 125 to 150, an important reason is that the 125 small pedals almost do not have ABS, especially in the urban commuting environment, encountering rain and sprinklers, the braking effect of slippery roads is greatly reduced.
The UHR150 brake aspect is the configuration of the front and rear disc brakes + dual channel ABS. Regarding the braking of UHR150, there is a large difference in evaluation in the owner group, some riders feel that the braking experience is very good, and the front and rear ABS feel very secure; some riders think that the brake setting is unreasonable, the rear brake braking force is too strong, ABS is also easy to trigger, and the front brake is soft and not fierce enough.
There was also a disagreement in our family, and my wife's evaluation was also very good on the brakes, very confident, and my feelings were different from hers. I think the front brake stroke is too long, the effect is not direct enough, again, the difference between the front and rear brake stroke is too large, I use the same force, the rear brake has triggered ABS, the front brake stroke has not been completed, but also continue to add force, this experience is not very comfortable. If it is a general speed-down brake, it has no impact, and the rear brake is stable, but if it is an emergency brake, I think the effect of the front brake must be strengthened.
In comparison, I prefer the PCX160's braking feel, the front and rear brakes are more consistent, but in the emergency braking, there is indeed a risk of rear wheel locking, in addition, the handlebar is too soft connection, it is indeed a bit panicked.
Handling aspects
The UHR150 is not a sporty scooter, and the handling is friendly and stable oriented. The car is very easy to get started, although there is a 140kg curb weight, but it does not feel heavy, and the city ride is also relatively easy.
UHR150 with tire specifications is the front 110/80-14 rear 130/70-14, PCX160 with the front 110/80-14, rear 130/70-13, UHR150 front wheel with 80 specifications, rear hub with 14 specifications, equivalent to a larger lap than the PCX160 tire, such an effect is better impact resistance, higher linear stability, corresponding to the sacrifice of some dumping speed.
In terms of suspension, the UHR150 is tougher than the PCX160 and has better support, especially when the driver with a large weight or a person can feel the difference in support.
The UHR150 engine cradle adopts the lower hanging lug method, compared with the PCX160 upper hanging lug, there will be no upward arching phenomenon when accelerating, and the vehicle operation is more stable.
The difference in handling between the two cars is that the UHR150 is more stable in a straight line, has a better sense of support on bumpy roads, and is suitable for riding with people, while the PCX160 is more flexible and more suitable for single riding.
Vibration aspect
UHR150 has a high level of vibration suppression, whether it is idle, low speed or high speed there is no obvious short board, the details have also been optimized, such as foot pedal double cushioning structure and anti-shake rearview mirrors, it is estimated that this anti-shake rearview mirror will become a modification of other models.
Although the vibration suppression of UHR150 is already excellent, it is difficult to meet opponents within 20,000, but there is still room for improvement in the overall standard PCX160, and the main difference is in the vibration of the high-speed range.
Storage space
UHR150 front storage box is a highlight, storage space is larger, the key is that the storage box cover reserved charging line hole is very reasonable, this is probably to learn the lesson of USR125, after all, the mobile phone holder has almost become the standard, mobile phone navigation charging is also the actual demand, there is this hole is much more convenient, PCX160 if you want to charge you have to open the storage box cover.
The seat barrel space is a short board of UHR150, because the use of a high air intake layout, affecting the size of the seat barrel space, the normal full helmet can not be put down, can put down part of the small or small helmet 3/4 helmet, like morex S30 such 3/4 helmet can not be put down, I will now put a retro half helmet. The PCX160's seat bucket space is much larger, and some models of full helmets can be put down, and 3/4 helmets can basically be put down.
Fuel consumption performance
Before the UHR150 was not listed, there was a lot of controversy about fuel consumption, and the official gave 2.2L of 100 km of working condition fuel consumption data, which was much lower than the actual fuel consumption of some 125 scooters.
Fuel consumption is closely related to personal driving habits and use environment. My car was filled with fuel at 73 km, ran to 359 km and the fuel gauge began to flash, to 372 km to refuel, the refueling amount was 7.09L, 299 km was added 7.09L, and the fuel consumption of 100 km was 2.37L. These 299 kilometers have the riding of the provincial highway national highway, there are also urban cycling, there are also double riding, and several times the speed is pulled, which is the comprehensive fuel consumption in the normal use state. The fuel consumption shown on the meter is currently 2.3. This fuel consumption is still relatively low in the 150-level pedal.
In addition, UHR uses a double high air intake method to extend the air filter service interval and belt life, which is also helpful for fuel economy.
Other aspects
As for start-stop, pulse ignition, headlights, instruments, buttons, etc., these will not be repeated one by one.
Summary
UHR150 as the first 150 water-cooled scooter of Haojue, there are many topics, according to the price point, UHR150 should be compared with Sanyang Cruise 150X, Gwangyang RKS150, but everyone will take PCX as a comparison model, Knight Network is also doing UHR150 and PCX160 comparison test content.
I think there may be two reasons, the first is that UHR is a product that stands on the shoulders of giants, and everyone wants to see the gap between the largest domestic and international manufacturers; the second is that to some extent, everyone has taken the UHR150 as a representative model at this price.
As a main practical and comfortable equalization pedal, UHR150 does not have particularly prominent highlights, in addition to the seat barrel space, there is no obvious short board, details and configuration are also quite rich and humanized, with "the most balanced 150 pedals within 20,000" to evaluate UHR150, I think it is more appropriate.
Compared with the benchmark model PCX160 at this level, the UHR150 has approached or even surpassed the former in some places, and the main gap I think is the engine performance, riding delicacy and seat barrel space, which is also the direction of future improvement.
However, from the perspective of product competition, PCX160 rear wheel does not match ABS is really a bit of a big trust, whether it is consumer psychology or safety, to this level and price, no rear wheel ABS is really impossible to say, TCS can not replace the role of ABS, if it is a choice between two cars, not to mention the landing difference of 7000, it is ABS, which will make many people hesitate.
The current delivery volume and order gap of UHR150 is still relatively large, and many places have not yet arrived. I hope that Haojue can lay out the goods as soon as possible and let the riders not wait too long.
People often say that the pedal is the last destination of The Moyou, I want to say that the family is everyone's destination, if a scooter can make the family more colorful and fun, how happy and happy should it be? I hope that everyone will get on the motorcycle of their choice early and enjoy the ride with their families.
