The Honda CG 150 Titan Is a Legend in the Used Market, but the Story of the ‘Naked’ Popular That Goes Almost 600 km on a Tank Blends Data from Two Very Different Generations.
The Honda CG 150 Titan is one of the biggest phenomena in the motorcycle market in Brazil. Synonymous with robustness, fuel economy, and excellent resale value, it has become the choice of millions of Brazilians. The promise of being a ‘Naked’ popular that goes almost 600 km on a tank of fuel only increases its appeal.
However, when looking for a used model from 2004 to 2010, the buyer encounters two very different motorcycles. This period covers the transition from the reliable carbureted version to the revolutionary version with electronic injection and flex engine. Understanding this difference is crucial for knowing what you are truly taking home.
The Sixth Generation (2004-2008): The Height of the Carbureted CG 150
In 2004, Honda took a strategic step: the name “Titan”, which belonged to the 125cc, was transferred to the new and more powerful 150cc platform. The CG 150 Titan was born. This generation, produced until 2008, is considered by many to be the pinnacle of simplicity and robustness.

Little sister of the Hilux: Toyota launches Land Cruiser FJ with 4 radical versions, 2.7 engine with 166 hp and 4×4 traction with locking.
Equipped with a 149.2 cc engine producing 14.2 hp, fed by a carburetor, it embodied reliable mechanics. It was offered in three versions: the KS (kick start), the ES (electric start), and the coveted ESD (electric start and front disc brake). Its fuel tank had a capacity of 14 liters.
The Revolution of 2009: The Arrival of Electronic Injection and the Flex Engine

To comply with new and stricter pollution emission laws, Honda implemented the greatest revolution in CG history in 2009. The company retired the carburetor and introduced fuel electronic injection (PGM-FI).
In March of that year, another milestone came: the launch of the CG 150 Titan Mix, the world’s first flex motorcycle, capable of running on gasoline, ethanol, or any mixture of the two. The design also changed, gaining more angular lines and a larger 16.1-liter tank.
Unraveling the Myth: The Real Range and Consumption of the Titan
Here is the central point that confuses many buyers. The idea of being a Naked Popular that Goes Almost 600 km is a mix of information.
- 14-Liter Tank (2004-2008 Models): With an average consumption of 35 to 40 km/l, the realistic range of these models is between 490 and 560 km.
- 16.1-Liter Tank (2009-2010 Models): With similar consumption on gasoline, the theoretical range of these models can indeed approach or even exceed 600 km, but only with the larger tank.
Therefore, the claim is only plausible for the models with electronic injection. Consumption with ethanol, however, is lower, ranging from 27 to 32 km/l.
How Much Is the Legend Worth in 2025? The Real Price of a Used CG 150
If you are looking for a CG 150 Titan from 2004-2010, forget the price range of R$ 4,000 to R$ 6,000. This value is completely outdated. The immense demand for the bike and its reputation for being “unbreakable” greatly increased the model’s value.
The FIPE Table for June 2025 already places these models in a range of R$ 7,300 to over R$ 10,400, depending on the year and version. In the real market, it is common to find well-preserved examples being sold for prices between R$ 8,000 and R$ 12,000.
Carbureted or Injected, Which Is the Best ‘Naked’ Popular That Goes Almost 600 km to Buy?
The choice between the two generations depends on your profile.
- The Carbureted Titan (2004-2008) is ideal for those seeking maximum mechanical simplicity, ease of repair anywhere, and even lower maintenance costs. The 2008 ESD model is considered by many to be the “holy grail” of this generation.
- The Injected Titan (2009-2010) is the best choice for those looking for more technology, easier starts, less maintenance on the fuel system, and the flexibility to use ethanol.
Both are excellent buying options, but it is essential to know exactly what each one offers to make the best deal.
