    try to use the P135's rear number plate holder,mounted on the fuel filler cap as a camera mount.

    I agree, but i wonder how many people actually utilise this factor. Anyways that is not a matter of concern, as i probably never will. And none of us here are getting into comparisons, so please keep the discussion to the relevant topic. Hope you dont take it otherwise.

    Not to start brand wars again, but 220 dtsi does handle well, due to changed rake angle and stiffer suspensions. It may not handle like a R15 on the race track, but on the streets, its very engaging and fun to ride. Try out the 220 dtsi, theres difference between the Fi and the carb version in terms of dynamics.

    Talking about the stock R15, due to low bottom end torque, what will you do with all that dynamics, when you cannot cut the city traffic when it is moving at snails pace? Well Joels moded R15 are a different breed

    Once you taste the freeflow, stock will be too boring. There is a lot of difference in the entire powerband. Have fun

    Performance update with the FFE

    Spent a few hours riding my P220 with Joel's FFE and a friend's stock P220. There is a marked difference in the performance of both these bikes, My bike is building up revs faster and the midrange definetly has better pull. The stock P220 now really feels restricted to me and bogged down. Keep in mind my bike was not in top condition that time, what with a dirty filter, improper chain slack and lack of lubing. Have prepped the bike now,going to do few high speed runs tomorrow morning and update further.

    Oh and yes, this "thing" is scaring the living daylights out of one and all . And yeah thanks to Joel, I no longer need to use the horn anymore ,its useless!!!

    @joel thala

    Any silent FFE's for RTR?
    Yes i did have a P200 earlier,but sold it long back and got myself a P220 DTSi. And silent FFE?? I will never get myself a subwoofer in my car now,nothing will come close to it.

I am easily crawling in 2nd gear in traffic whereas earlier i was shuttling between 1st n 2nd. I kept riding aimlessly for more than 4 hrs after installing the FFE !!!!
    The number of eyeballs, err, ears its attracting is phenomenal. I am literally being chased n flagged down by curious riders. Some even come too close for comfort and run the risk of being rammed

    God, what can a mere exhaust do..Oh and did i say its LOUD!!!!!
