@Joel: Finally, the entire line-up! Congrats for this achievement. The biking scene at India is really getting positive, and I see your name almost everywhere there's a positive change. Great going!
And btw, I know I wanted the head and exhaust from you, but I'm thinking of coming there and getting it hand-finished by you..a little exclusivity you can say!
Expect me after my exams! And, would you be kind enough to suggest me the right combination of goodies? Me and my bike'll be present there physically, so not just the bolt-ons. Like, a combination that's a "must have" for atleast stage-1 or stage-2.

Your biking tells a lot about the person you are!

Hey Joel, I am sure you must have kept this in mind, but still...
Do you think the stock tyres and especially the stock front/rear brakes would be good enough with the big bore setup since the bike will get more powerful? So do you feel the need of more powerful brakes?The Chronicles of Motorcycling - The Man, The Machine and The Road

No arguing with that. But great going i must say. So what kind of power a 175cc full blown street setup is producing. What is the max CR you are able to run without problems. Will you be able to post some photos of the stock pistons and combustion camber of the r-15 as i will like to see them.Thanks.Originally posted by Joel View Postmore than capacity, it depends on the amount of power ur making.

@digi - As for the stages, this is how i would classify.
adding a sticker and an exhaust etc is not even 0.5 stage in my context, coz it hardly boasts.
stage 1 for the R15 would be the bigbore kit. To begin with. You can add a street cam also. Even ECU cn be included to treat it like an icing.
stage 2 - add exhaust to the above, with a hotter cam, valve train components and then add the ECU if you havent added earlier.
Stage 3 - everything else out of the list above and will need more tuning by me. Cylinder head to everything.
@satellite kid - The stock tyres and brakes on the R15 are truly amazing. I use stock parts on my bike too. They work perfect.
@born2slow - pls identify urself. We'll take it from there.sigpic

Not to forget, the ECU is a very crucial part of the R15 to make serious power. There is no shortcut to it. Starting off with an ECU upgrade is the most logical thing to do. Can easily support mods and we are working towards developing the most advanced system for the R15. With endless tuning capability (for racing) and make good difference over stock as a plug and play affair.sigpic

A small query Joel. The 165 bore kit is a bolt on, what about the cylinder head...? porting to allow better port flow or the stock ports are already well designed to accommodate the big bore...Originally posted by Joel View Post@digi - As for the stages, this is how i would classify.

OT:And i definitely think RTR owners will also get to enjoy all these goodies...

The bigbore is a plug and play. The cylinder head can still flow a lot. The cylinder head is very well casted and there is little that you can correct anyways. Unless you are pushing the engine to next levels.Originally posted by Racing Hart View PostA small query Joel.

Well that explains it..Originally posted by Joel View PostThe bigbore is a plug and play. The cylinder head can still flow a lot. The cylinder head is very well casted and there is little that you can correct anyways. Unless you are pushing the engine to next levels.
And your bigbore would already seem like next level for most here...

@gd - No issues. Lemme know anytime you need them.
ECU development in full swing. We are seeing a good difference over stock ECU on a stock engine. Should be fun once its complete. Fuel efficiency is currently or par with stock with slightly improved performance.sigpic

I have a question joel
1) can the same ECU be used after i add further mods to the engine i.e say i decide to add the FFE or the bigbore kit? Just a change in map is all that would have to be changed or can we use the same map for the modified engine too?
