will take this on later

Varies from city to city/dealer to dealer



to clear old stocks it is on their website, it is still there but i presume the old stocks have been cleared and perhaps Blue color is stopped

it is still a seller's market

The bike begins to develop good power from 5000rpm and will be a diwali rocket post 7000rpm
If you like shifting gears(you will have to shift gears more than any other motorcycle available) then i don't see you complaining about this aspect

Just enjoy the motorcycle and i too am not equipped with much info to shed some light on these aspects

if you happen to use high beam all the time(in city traffic) it might bother you
^after market chinese kits are available and guys are using w/o much problems

The performance parts are still unavailable, should be on sale in a month or two

can't help you much here



depends what you want from your motorcycle and what kind of rider you are,
if you understand trail-braking, apexes and lines you won't look any further,
she is just so composed and beautiful and shall forgive your most on-road mistakes you make
and i tell you, it will teach you how to ride a motorcycle
and yes, no bulbs are fused, the bike stays just like new however you rip it,
if there is a case of bomb-proof motorcycle, the R15 ticks the right boxes,
so the price which you pay also buys you quality and refinement

^^know it is hard to grab a R15 to have a go, but do so and also take a test-ride of other motorcycles which you are considering and take a call
Happy Buying
