sad to hear about that dude. I had that same bad day today. A bike hit me from behind when I was in a traffic signal. But to my luck he hit me on the exhaust.... no scratches to ma baby R1 Thank God!!
and about the wheel alignment.... don't worry dude it will be fine.. and also check the rim for any bend or cracks..

Thanks Ajaythedon . I think ill have to start working on photoshop to see what looks best ..dont want to screw it up :P

1 - around 600
2 - around 1000
3 - headlight assembly doesn't come separately, even if there is a crack in the dome or the left or right eye, you have to get a new headlight set -2300
4 - handlebar - 450
5 - mirror 250
6 - t-stem i suppose u mean the headlight stay - 450
7 - by head light mask you mean the front Faring or headlight faring - 760

I know these costs because i too had an accident, thats why had all the prices, may differ ..

Thanks! Can I trust it, is all what I wanted.

True!

The thing is Res- Rec mileage of people would vary a lot! Better fill petrol till a mark, like I said couple of pages ago, and next time fill it to the same mark.

Aww.. Thats bad!

Servicing doesn't include labor and washing charges as well.

mine was 470(Oil)+ 167(Oil filter)+ 250(Coolant top-up Was cheated here, I guess)+ 200(Chain cleaning + Lubing- A lot again)

Now thats bad! :-(

3.5K is too less buddy.. If you want increase the RPM by .5K/150 kms, and later /200 kms.

Like 100- 3.5, 250- 4, 400- 4.5, 600- 5, 800- 5.5, 1000-6 and make her ready to fly..

Thats great to know! But sad to hear about your accident!

Are you talking about the paid service or free! If free, then change the dealer.
According to me, no labor for free services.

If thats the case then, something not good happening with us.
They might "oil" the chain, not use the Motul chain cleaner.

Thats great! Ride safe!

But 5 more days, in front of your door!
Salute to your patience..

What bike section would help you! Here you would find some biased opinions as well!

Great! Welcome buddy!

Are you the same guy that posted on FB, Yamaha R15 page?
I hope your questions have been answered.

Now thats bad!

What has happened! Lots of people with minor accidents..

But, good that all are MINOR!

Bent hugger! You need to check from wher it has been bent, may be the mount, not much!

Ride safe!

Thanks so much for your reply brother...

Atlast Entered the Family

I got my Bike Yesterday(26/4/2012)
I got it from YAMAHA FACTORY SHOP MUMBAI after waiting for long 3 days.
She is one of the 4000 bikes produced by yamaha. Yes its White Limited Edition and im very proud to have her.
I went mad when i looked at her for the very first time tbh.
But then i had a FZ-16 with me.But fortunately things dont go along the way it should.
I lost my FZ on 9th Feb from Khalsa College,Mumbai.It was parked outside the college and it was my bad bcoz i had left the keys on the bike itself.
Yeah i know i'm a fool but have very awesome memories attached to it.
Long trips to murud harihareshwar,moments whr i thaught my love how to ride,the time i spent with her on the bike,With brother,everything !!
Mann she has a very special place in my heart and will be always missed and No other bike can replace her.
As life moves on i too had to move on

So talkin about my new baby r15
As i told you guys i felt in love with her when i saw her.
Its a huge bike,bigger than its earlier version.
All in all i liked every minute thing about the bike but except the fact that the pillion rider has a tough time CLIMBING on the seat and also at the time of getting down.
I have used the word "climb" because the back seat is too high but once you get there its like a different world out there waiting for you.When the winds blows in your face the feeling is awesome and you feel like you are a free bird.
Riding Bike on TC number from MALAD to Chembur , yea thts where i stay was a risky job without the form 19/90, i dont know, which the traffic cop told me was illegal but who cares.
Reached safely home , rode it < 5000 rpm and 50 km/hr.
It was very difficult to control my hands because when you have an empty highway in front of you , you just wait to hit the acci and go vrooom vroom
Day1 : Did 40 kms of riding.
and yea forgot to mention tht i too had problems riding the bike in the first hour but i experimented a lot on the sitting posture and found one posture whr i was comfortable.
Well now i'm planning to buy LS2 Dragon for my baby.Any suggestions?

Glad that nothing major happened. If you dont feel any change in the way the bike behaves then nothing to worry. Else SVC is the place to take here.
Since yours is the LE white, Option 2 would be the best IMHO. Brass would look cool on darker shades.

Congrats dude and welcome to the club! You are lucky you got it in 3 days, people here have waited for anything from 30 days to 3 months!

My Red Rachel Nearing 6k &amp; queries list

Guys

Hope all are rocking with your Baby R1s
My Red rachel is nearing her 6k Mark
and she s due for her third service . now my queries are

1st is about chain lubrication , i have done it only during Service 1 & 2 ( two times )
now it will be again done in the 3rd service
whats the general duration for chain lubrication ?
whats the recommended product for chain lubing ?

secondly , having some sounds from the front fairing when i go in some normal uneven roads ( not too bad though).
did anyone experience the same probs
pls guide me

and During drive at lower RPMs and esp during 2nd gear/3rd engine gets off And i press ignition again it starts again
iam very much worried about this issue.

eagerly waiting for your replies

Don't have so large intervals for chain lubing. Though there is no standard prescribed range, I do it every 500 - 750 kms depending upon the chain condition.
N yes, Motul seems to be the most proven of them all. I am currently using Tricobor.
What RPM range are you talking of here?

Absolutely Stunning man. No words further...

+1....Why not spend the double amount on pooja and avoid riding gears too..

Dude , i can't get you

Dude , i din't say to avoid Riding Gears ( And i dint even mention it , because every one knows that Riding with complete riding gears will protect them more than half ( with less damage to their body parts ), when they met with a accident )

And the Pooja is for both of you ( 50/50 )

Any ways , i'm still why did you say this ( avoid riding gears )

Cheers S.V.Prasad

So very True .

Oil Change

Completed 180kms on ODO. Changed the oil filter & engine oil. Mineral oil. The svc guys was telling to change to SS then i realized that these people know nothing. After the oil change i feel bike has become more smooth & even gear shifting is getting smoother. No false neutrals till now. Getting used to the bike.less back ache & wrist pains. Very helpful info from many of you guys. Will be changing oil & filter after 500kms. They charged around 508/-
167/- - Oil filter
260/- Mineral oil
50/- Labor
15/- Tail Yammy logo

No mocking or anything, But this is the first of its kind post on XBHP ever i believe. Congrats and thanks. Thanks was for, the fun of reading your post after a long hard day's work.

On the other hand, reading your post over and over...one question...ARE YOU FOR REAL...??? *claps* for the break-up and saving scheme. Now we are safe. Thanks to you.
