well, I actually went for my Victor's speedo light and asked the guy if they come in colours. He said that they do come in colours and at that moment he had only white and the ones I got... @ Rs 6 each, I didn't think twice to pick em up!

There were many such on ebay.in and also available in car accessory shops.

Almost all bikes have this type of bulbs for their pilot lamps & console lamps. The older ones base would be like a regular light bulb... this one would have a flat base...

pull out the pilot lamp from ur R15 and see it for yourself... and show to the shopkeeper if needed! it takes just a few seconds.. no tools needed.

hi guys....after having a good look at all the 110 pages of this thread i am really scared about in what condition my R15 would be in....i have come to delhi for my vacations...and i study in pune...and the bike is standing still there...its been like now about 1 month...R15 --1 month dead without any ignition...thats very sad..i feel bad about my little baby....do you guys think when i get back to pune...there will be a total battery drain out....????...and i also wanted to ask you guys something about the gear shifting...when i shift from 1st to the second...most of the times it gets stuck to neutral....why is that....how can i solve this problem...

and regarding the accessories of the R15...everything is available at the factory owned showroom in saket..the citi select mall....from the rear seat cowl to the led position lights and also the racing stand...

hoping for sum help...thanks guys...
