  • Noise from R15

    I am having this weird sound from my bike only when the throttle is open and bike is in motion. as soon as I let go of the throttle the noise goes off.. I am guessing noise is coming from the chain and it has increased alot in last 2 days.. I went to SVC 4-5 days back and got the chain cleaned and lubed with motul products.. After i got it lubed there was no sound but ir rained and I guess its the problem.. What do you guys think?
    Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead.

    The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

      The chain does get messed up when it rains as the lube gets washed away. In case you did extensive rain riding, it time to re-lube the chain.

      Also, in case you are getting the lubing done at an SVC regularly, its a more viable option to buy a can & do it yourself. Saves a lot of money, plus you don't need to run to the SVC everytime.


      @Mods: I think this query doesn't require a separate thread, & can be merged with the R15 ownership thread

      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.

          Where do you stay?
          I'm pretty sure the Yamaha SVC would be selling the Chain Lube atleast, if not the Chain Clean.
          They sell it over the counter here at Yamaha SVCs.

                    You should be able to get it easily then. You do not need to go to a Motul Distributor for it.
                    Almost all bike accessories/ spare parts shops would be stocking the Chain Spray for sure!

                    Take help from members from Delhi if need be.
