The Suzuki Satria is a motorcycle made by Suzuki, first released as two-stroke bike in Indonesia in 1998. Many subsequent models have been launched since then. Major change was the release of four-stroke sport bike Satria F.
The bike is notorious for its high fuel consumption, sudden braking and short interval between oil changes. However, the bike's acceleration and agility is far surpassing other common 4-stroke motorcycles in the country.
The first type was released in 1998, with the second and third following in 2002 and 2004. the 4-stroke type was released in 2004 and new models are being released every year. The 2-stroke model (Satria 120 - 120 cc) stopped being sold in 2006. Its successor released in 2004 is named F-150 (known, elsewhere, as the Suzuki Raider 150).
F-150 Features
Twin Cam / DOHC(Double Overhead Camshafts) 147cc engine, SCEM (Suzuki Composite Electrochemical Material) cylinder, SACS (Suzuki Advanced Cooling System), rear disc brake, 290mm front disc brake, dual vertical headlights
Advantages
Suzuki Satria series, especially F-150 is capable reaching high speed in short time. The 147cc engine made F-150 is the biggest underbone motorcycle among underbone motorcycles released in Indonesia. Because using SCEM, F-150 is relatively light for such engine so it provides better handling. Larger front disc brake and rear disc brake gave plus points to safety.
