      Reset your tappets, normally this issue happens when the inlet valve's are set too tight.

        WHat do you mean "recharged the coil" ?? Coils don't hold an electrical charge whatsoever so no question of recharging . So the question is what work the guy did for your first 1700 Rs ??!! This guy is taking you for a serious ride bro . Get rid of him/them asap. No such widespread manufacturing defects known in Yamaha R15 , the guy is trying to fleece you for more money .
        The problem you describe sounds simple one like Ashwin says . Get a competent Yamaha service center to look into the bike thoroughly .

          exactly.. looks like the service center is ripping you.
          step1- goto another yamaha service center with thorough checkup.
          step2- write a mail to yamaha telling the incident. I hope you get your 1700 back and good problem resolution for your bike..

          ride on..

            I had exactly the same problem with my R15.
            Eventually i figured out that the spark plug was making a sound when the bike got off..(I got new spark plug a day before).
            Then I opened the fairing re-installed the spark plug and tightened the plug cap.
            I got no problem after that day .
