Guys,

Thanks for all your support. I have finally booked my baby R - 50th Anniversary LE White.

Will get it in a week or so.

No words to express how happy I am. It was my dream to own this bike since it first came out in 2008.

Thanks again. Good day.

why havent you tried it yet? you will get a better idea if you are planning for either of the bikes.

m planning to take a test ride of CBR150R soon to see wats the fuss about :P but i dont think i will be happy sitting on it

as i have R15

good bud

finally you boked it and lucky too that you will get it soon

one moer thing, yest there was heavy rain here, went home after the rain in slight drizzle, the bike obviously got dirty, but i was surprised in the morning to see that it was not so much

i had suffered a lot when i had FZs. there was hardly any dirt due to the bike, most of it was due to the water splashed by other vehicles

I followed this one and I guess it worked out well. The engine at least responds well and has opened up well.

Unless you are absolutely sure of what you are doing, follow the run in as described in the manual (<5k RPM for 700 KMS, <7.5k RPM for the next 300 KMS, gradual speeding/ braking).

**[IN]BeTrayedxD** · 04-26-2012, 08:38 PM

Thanks for your suggestion guys

One Doubt !!!

Guys

I have a doubt .

1. When i start performing my Run-in period , i mostly used to ride with pillion and rarely solo ( i.e. 85 % / 15 % ) . My doubt - By riding with pillion , will it cause any harm to the engine ( By stressing it , will the piston rings and other stuff will not get properly settled ? And , will the engine performance will be reduced and will the engine life span will reduce ? )

I guess . Buying a BIKE was quiet easy for me , but maintaining its Run-in period is going to be a big challenge for me

Cheers S.V.Prasad

Bro, you seems to be too tensed about the run-in... Riding with pillion doesnt cause any harm to the engine, just down shift gears at the correct time rather than trying to climb a hill in 5th or 6th gear..

You can change the oil at 150 , 500 and 1st service and keep her under 6k for the whole run-in period.. It should be enough to get a better engine life...
After all its YAMAHA !!!

guys met with a minor accident today. was hit by a cab from behind and i hit a car in front of me, it was not a head on collision, i was going left in the slow moving traffic when this cab behind me suddenly came fast n hit me which made me hit the left side bumper of the front car. i was so angry i shouted when it happened, nothing happened to the bike or me, small bruise to me n small scratch on the tank. thank god no major thing happened. i ll take the bike to service center tomorrow if i find any serious thing.
now the cab hit my left rear side, mostly on the guard that is connected to the tyre hugger, is there any chance that the wheel alignment would be disturbed|? only the hugger is bent half inch towards right. will post pics tomo/...

**nullphobia** · 04-26-2012, 11:10 PM

Hi Ron ! I am glad nothing serious happened to you bro ! I am sure nothing serious would have happened to the bike either ,don't worry. Did you feel any change while riding it back ?

while carrying a pillion it is advised to shift at higher rpm than normal. Only shifting at lower rpm tends to load the engine.

And trust me s.v ... r15 has bullet proof engine

Hey man ...nice to hear about your rim job.
I personally think ... any darker shades looks pretty... on your L.E

u can choose a rich brass like this:
