I got my 3rd servicing done 2 weeks back. At that time ODO read 5400KM.
Servicing was done at YFS and they did not say that the bike needs decarbonising.

Check the bike's manual and see if any such thing is mentioned.

The best thing for CBR dudes are to get your mudguards lengthened. There are aftermarket guards for the N250R. Try sourcing that. But, it could not be pocket friendly.
Sorry about the part no. I forgot it. Just mail Yamaha, they will tell you the part number. Its known as Engine kit.

And you wont get it for 14,500. You will have to buy the complete engine kit for 29.5k. The price was 35k+ some months ago, price was decreased 2 months ago I think..

Follow the page. All dealers are mentioned in it towards the end.
Ride safe

Vivek, I did change my oil n filter at 400kms and then again at the 1st service.
The purpose was to get rid of the metal filings created mostly during the first 300 kms.

Same

Oil and Oil filter as well.
I did it at 300 on the ODO and got her serviced at 700. Some heavily experienced members told me to do that and I did it. (Its logical, and no harm as well)

fuel pump complaint

Hi guys,

I am new to this forum. I had recently purchased a white R15 2.0 LE, my bike was fine for first 3 months, after which it started showing problems. My bikes engine was killed all of a sudden while riding. when i called service center, they said i have to bring it to their showroom. so i had to put it in an auto and take it there. After reaching there and after a days check they said the fuel pump is damaged and it needs replacement. I got my fuel pump replaced after one month.

After all that hustle it was fine for 2 weeks. This Friday, again while travelling to office, the two indicators on the dash one orange and another red glowed and all of a sudden ,engine killed itself. the fuel pump was not starting after turning on the ignition and the two lights which use to glow before the fuel pump starts also stopped glowing. so i had to push the bike for nearly 2 kms to find the nearest rickshaw stand so that i could take my bike to service center. But then when I placed the key and turned on the ignition for one last time , it started and everything was working. Does anyone have any idea why its behaving this weird. i have done only 2500 kms in that. if anyone has any idea regarding this kindly give your suggestions. I gave it to service center today and they don't have a clue.

Check electricals.

How much fuel do you keep in your bike? fuel pump goes kaput when ridden in reserve always, there is no lubrication to keep it working and hence the fuse blows.

@ Eshan,

I never ride at reserves. Infact when my engine was killed for the first time, it was full tank.

could be a malfunc. fuel injection system.


Put up the problem in the Help Me section as a new thread.

anyone tried using ngk iridiums? if yes, any change felt?

Ask me.. Using it since Day 2 of my purchase.. Smooth acceleration, better feel at lower gears.. Smooth delivery of power from lower gears.. Must buy in short..

I wouldnt contest you there asking how you know the difference between the normal and iridium since you replaced the former at day 2 of ur purchase.


I'm rather more interested in your 'metal knee pads'. Review,please?

well iridium spark plugs hardly makes difference in performance on stock or slightly modified ride.moreover they help if you rev engine at higher rpm.the only gain is better cold starts.always choose according to heat range of your engine.

Irony is, we're discussing a FI engine here.

Umm, I don't own R15 in either avatar, but I got the Manual from my friend and read it. If I am not wrong, R15 comes with NGK spark plugs from Factory. If that's not the case, then I guess it was only V1 which had NGK spark plugs from Factory.

Note : Please don't pounce on me, I read V1 manual, not V2.

I did not ride an R15 v 2.0 first after I purchased it. I have ridden many other R15 v 2.0s prior to my purchase. Moreover, 1 day is enough to understand how your bike behaves specially when you have ridden a more powerful bike for 17000 kms.

Well they are not some Alpinestar or Fox, but they are really really nice.. Never felt they were uncomfortable. Very nice. Pure VFM..

Do you or have you ever used an Iridium? If you did then your statement seems to contradictory. I agree doesn't make a huge difference but it does make a considerable difference. Iridium is a metal that can sustain much more heat compared to normal spark plugs, that's why normal spark plugs last somewhere around 15-20k kms where as Iridiums last close to 50k kms. Also the density of spark fire in Iridium is much better compared to normal spark plugs so better fuel burning, better combustion, better performance. Simple science.

Do I need more clarification in that case?

NGK does not solely manufacture Iridiums. Iridium spark plugs are just a series by NGK. NGK also has normal and performance spark plugs other than Iridium and all R15 comes with NGK normal spark plugs.
