Well,its now a known thing that the "mechanic/electrician" doesn't even know anything about the R15's internals. 55w is way too much,and there's a high chance that it will blow the whole electrical system of ur bike,AFAIK. 2x35w HID with projector is still acceptable and change battery to 5A or 7A max. Plz let experienced guys handle ur babyR.

Hey everybody was out of sync for long.
The other I just happened to go to pro-biker on MG road. The guy there was installing philips 55w projector setup on this babe. When enquired about, he told me that the bulb will cost around 1000 per piece and for installing there were 2 options
1. pay 200 as installation charges for each bulb which will include everything right from ballast to wiring so that would be 2000 bucks for bulbs and 400 for installing those..=2400/-
2. pay 500 per side as installation charges and it will cover every minute thing caused while installing like if the fuse shorts out or for some reason the bulb goes kaput or even if any sensor/console goes bonkers it will be replaced without any extra charges. so in all that would take the total to 2000+1000, 3k for 55w HID's 6000k temperature.

As for the projector setup 1500 per side additional.. and yes one more thing battery will have to be put in.
I was telling the guy that the factory fitted battery in R15 wont take up so much load being a puny 3.5A.. He was hell bent on telling me ke "Sir R15 ki battery 9 A ki hai, 3.5A ki ho hi nahi sakti."

Well anybody going for any bulb change apart from this 55W thing ??

Someone did 5th servicing and which includes greasing front and rear bearings, i think the bearings is been filled with grease which does not leak and it last for life long. and if you try to grease even though its useless, and it is been charged for 150 to 200 rs
thats horrible
plz let me know if i am wrong anywhere.

Can anyone please highlight the above mentioned query, I carry zero knowledge on that, also would be hitting that service somewhere in Jan. Would be good to know some knowledge on that.



Yup, but time is not in my hands, actually living on weekends, did you install it on your ride? Puspal a V1 owner said its a home job, plug and play types.

Really hate the MRF tires...no quality and no reliability at all....just 1400 kms on the odo and my rear tire is no more!!! had to shell out rs 3500 for the rear tire

2x55w won't work. Electricals won't support. As answered in reply to my email to yamaha.
They just suggested to adjust the focus.



Few members are using the Blue 35w option and is marginally better.



well, as per manual, it needs greasing at 12000 Km. Yamaha guys would also suggest you not to go for it unless something went wrong with the ride.
But if you are a manual freak, go for it. I did as well.



Putting in the bulb ? i saw a DIY somewhere and studied the guy who changed on mine. Pretty simple job.



You sure ?. Was there no problem with your ride, like a bunch of punctures ?

Yeah am sure....was really depressed bcos had to buy a new tire in just 2 months of taking my bike's delivery

and guys....i wanna know how to adjust the headlamps.....i have observed the light goes off the road instead of being straight on the road....suggestions plzz

Someone did posted a DIY somewhere. There are two visible screws just behind your lamps on dashboard. Use them to adjust the focus.
Don;t ask me which direction rotation does what, its quite simple.

and mate, there has to be some problem with your tyre. The tyres we have are the best industry has to offer.
Did someone told you that your tyre is gone or you took the call yourself ?

I took my call myself....some steel plate had pierced in the rear tire....and when the puncture guy tried to remove that plate...half of the tire got tore

waaat ? something fishy here. steel plate? pics please. we will get the clear picture.

Not yet. By some reason i have to postpone it. Will try and go this saturday to check and change. But I need some reliable shop. I heard bombay scooters is good in nana peth

Dude i forgot to take the pic.....bcos i was shocked to see a small steel plate with sharp ends had pierced ma rear tyre it was heart breaking

can we implement projector headlamps in our R15 like the pulsar 220....

Don't worry, with power comes responsibility. You don't lost your hope in rossi if he gets hurt for a series. He is rossi, he'll strike back.
I don't think its tyre's fault. They aren't made to run on off-steel-roads.
