    • Hi all, I'm bit constipated and might puke anytime. Just saw this link, we do not have a main stand or paddock stand at home for Lubing and cleaning our motorcycle chain. I just wanna advise you all that seriously dont try lubing and cleaning the chain at home if you do not have proper tools (Main Stand or Paddock Stand). Its dangerous if your fingers get caught in the sprocket and chain, expect them to off from everywhere. I have attached the link, please read it thoroughly, i wish the product mentioned there was available here.

        • ^He did have the maturity to learn about something that he might have missed in the past. It is a very appreciative thing.
          I hope you also have an R15- So can you tell me what is the difference technically between a cbz-X and R15 in terms of gear shifting? By any chance are you shifting the gear with your hands?

              I referred to CBZ as a answer to what was asked on the above post. May b u should stop jumping the gun and read a little before being so quick about posting your thoughts, brother.

                Yes i do have a R15 v2 now. And by hands ,,, at times yes. Now when and how , thats for me to know and you to figure out . .


                I was trying to ask if what i was doing was that the correct way.

                    Shifting of gear depends on your requirement and Feel, and the most importantly according to my experience whenever shifting the gear
                    'minimize accelerator and press the clutch to max which can make engine free to change the gear', most of the people does not minimize acceleration and then shifts the gear which makes the kit kit sound,
                    i realy dnt like them. My one of the friend downshifts the gear to neutral at slopes that to on high speed and when he was doing it was sounding,
                    " Kat Kat Kit Kit and then neutral. plz never down shit the gears to 1st or neutral when you are at high speed.
                    coz the engine sounds like been beaten up with hammer.

                      can anyone tell me, what is the price of the the piece which is in black colour with a white yamaha printed near the silencer that too of both sides" check the image link

                      has any one tried replacing it on a Sunset red R15 if yes then can i have its pic.
                      i have seen that combination in R125.
                      2nd Question---- The visor of R15 is transparent, and found few of the has made it carbon black, personaly i dnt like both of them.
                      what if we put, normaly called "Film" which is put on the Car windows which is commonly of dark blue colours, that would make the visor looks shine and Genuine.
                      What you you guys say.

                          Some small air hole was blocked on the tank which restricted fuel flow.

                          For a quick check, run w/o locking the tank (use the spare key if needed).
                          I thought it might be the reason.

                          After washing, ensure you dry the bike.

                          Do the following

                          Fill some more fuel in the tank
                          Check the fuse (Not sure on how its done in a V2. In V1 it was a box under the seat next to the battery)

                          Replace the fuse
                          Check if the battery connectors are properly mounted
                          Disconnect the horn

                          Start the bike.
                          Thanks a lot Satyen, I appreciate your help! I couldn't open the rider seat that night. Took her to the SVC.
                          It was a loose battery connection! Stupid me!

                          Anyone has tried a battery cum bulb upgrade.
                          Am planning upgrading to 5 amp from 3.5 and replacing 35w twins with 55w.

                          Any reviews ?
                          Battery it was! He just tightened the screw and voila!

                          Thank you guys!

                                I second that!...I got a center stand fitted and although my friends tease me about it, I find find it worth the money!...cleaning a bike chain while its in use is the 'DUMBEST' thing a person can possibly do...

                                Moving on...went on a small ride to Lavasa on Sunday, awesome weather! Corners were just too good..here are some pics for ya'll!

                                p.s: Didn't face any problem with the center stand while cornering!
