      I used to say before and i am saying now too...what is this guy doing here , he should be in MIT or some R&D department of Yamaha or TVS.

      Hatts off to you bro...The R15 Stock engine already gives a kickass performance for being 150cc now ur modds have just taken engineering to another level.

      soon Performance parts will be out..added that to your bike man it will shed the Kawa 250cc also or come closer to it.

        Ahmm, can you enlighten me more oabout how a piston can be modified without changing it completely? Atleast over the PM?

          Thanks man.
          Well, this is something that I'm waiting to happen and its the most unlikely however. The same story with the TVS performance kits as well. Forget it.

              nice mod there joel, apar did tell me about the exhaust you've made and how much he likes to have one on his bike. BTW did u grind the lower portion of the cyl block to actually increase the compression ratio(since u say its got a stock con rod) or does it have some other reason to it. just curious

                            I thought you shaved off the lower portion of the cylinder block to increase compression. Now you say some other reasons too? I am curious what it can be. Any hint?

                              Hint is nothing. I've very clearly mentioned that the cylinder head was modified. Which effectively bumps the compression. i wont say what exactly I did, but its a tricky stuff.
                              My development on the R15 will soon see the next levels and unfortunately I wont be able to disclose my owns works here. I'm getting committed for some development sake.
