actually i was thinking about shifting it back to 1300 cos i remember pranjal saying it is injurious to the engine ....

My bike's idle rpm is 1100 (has never set it till date ... and no problems with it though) should i change it to 1300 or let it be?

I really like the quality of the work too. The painjob is also good.
Wondering what the exhaust note is like!

IIRC, at the Yamaha Fiesta, they said Yellow had a 1week to 10 day waiting period. The other colours were readily available, & ready for delivery in 2-3 days (for regn) after payment.
LE is out of production it seems, & the showrooms have no stock anymore.

Its way too low. You should get it adjusted to 1300-1400 RPM. Its a 2-minute job, but ensure its done on a sufficiently warmed-up engine.

The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back;
and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.

hey guys, I have been noticing that many people out here are getting a long waiting period...I think you guys must be living in south India most probably...As I live in Lucknow and the Yamaha company is also in the same state, there is no waiting period over here....All the showrooms are full with the bikes and also every colour is available except the LE because I think it need to be ordered..

Right now my father's Bajaj Chetak gives me more adrenalin rush than the R15 (coz it is in run-in period ). The 125 cc 2 stroke engine is really great yaar. Just open the throttle and you have a instant 'blast'. I hope the same/more from R15. I also find Chetak more nimble. R15's turning radius just sucks

Please dont insult our beloved R15. The Chetak can in no way be compared to the R15 !!! (sorry no offence meant)
