    dude its your personal choice, how can anyone tel you which colour to choose. best is that you pick the colour you want. as far as the attractiveness goes, the white LE and red\white combo attract lot of attention. then comes black n blue. now its totally up to you

    P.S: too many red\white on road.

                Hey do let us know about the quality of servicing they do. I was not thoroughly satisfied by the servicing done by Factory shop
                Keep Calm and Kaam se Kaam

                To all those how-to-run-in-the-bike-oh-it's-so-confusing. Here's an advice.
                Read and follow the OWNER's Manual. Keep it simple.. Old School technique will do more good than harm your bike

                    Yeah, Saturday there is a huge rush, so you have to wait till 4pm to get your bike back. And then they hurry up the servicing, i had to literally point them out that such a task is left, that task is remaining. I wondered what would have happened in my absence. That guy charged me for coolant top up and I dint actually see him doing that, when asked he said he forgot, so did it in front of me. And then there is a huge list of taxes that you need to shell.

                    Can't risk again.

                    Okay cool.

                    I have couple of questions in regards to Air Filter, please sort out as i actually do not know which one is used.

                    1) Type
                    2) How is it cleaned? I havent seen it in first service being cleaned or anything Please elaborate.
                    3) Stamina or when to replace
                    4) Reusable after cleaning
                    5) Cost

                    • Can someone tell me the location of the battery in R15 v2?
                      Also what will be the cost for 5ah or 9ah battery?
                      Would a 9ah battery fit the v2 without any mods?

                        Under the rider seat. Little mods are required for all batteries except the stock 3.5A.

                          5A battery is a direct fit to the battery box you can still use the same battery retainer strap. Just peel out the sponge kept inside the box. I have 5A Amaron in my bike and my friend has 5A Amco.

                            How long have you been using it? My friend after using 5A battery, his battery never charge automatically while running. Changed to stock and everything went right, thats what I said.

                              2yrs 20K Kms, never faced any issue. Have to say 5A is better than stock 3.5Amps. I have dual horns and no horn squeaking while at high beam. Not only me many R15v1 owners should be on 5A by now.

                              You can simply close your eyes and use an Amaron/Amco 5A coz I have tested both. Battery charging issues will be found only when using a 7-9A battery, so thats when you re-wind and change the wiring harness.
