@Praful: I did not know that the ZMA's and the R15's ground clearance is the same - 160mm.

@Biker_Boy: Fairing nuts getting loose ain't a problem at all man. In those kind of terrain, it is NOTHING. Kudos to you for taking the R15 to Leh. Now, bring on the text and the pictures. Quick!

Waiting for the pics and log. Did you manage the trip with stock tyres or did you put any aftermarket tyres?
