Before buying went to the service and checked it thoroughly. No problem was found so I let it pass. Now there is no mark.

      Riding faster than everyone else only guarantees you'll ride alone.

          AFAIK the LE logo has the tuning forks in golden color and the usual logo has it in white/ silver. So I think Chirag got a regular logo.

          • Guys,
            Need a little help.
            Is there a problem filling up the bike with Premium Fuel ?? (Speed etc.) or i should just stick to regular unleaded.
            Second, need some views on the entire daytona kit. Cams, Exhaust, ECU et all ... is there any one who can tell me if its worth it and how much diff does it make from the stock bike.

            Almost done 1300 Kms on the black beaut in less than 2 mnths. Looking at the kit sometime in Feb March next year.....

            Cheers.

              No problem at all, But you have to drain entire petrol to get this new premium fuel affect. Else you won't get a better out put. Though the out put would be approx a small difference. But yes there is an increase in performance.

              If I am not wrong then Datona Kit cost almost over 50K+
              check this link:


              And it gives a boost of some 10-15kmph only!! INMO it's not worth spending this big amount over 1.3L.

              Where as a person can get a CBR 250 for power and speed.

              • Fuel station guys are asking nowadays about filling 'oil' along with petrol. Told them its a 4 stroke, they said its a different oil.What kind of oil they are referring?

                  Thanks for the update on the fuel. Id heard Premium Fuels affect the Fuel Injection in some way ... Maybe i was wrong ..... Do u regularly use Premium Fuel ???
                  The Daytona kit is for 31K in all .... the SVC says it boosts power to 22 BHP ... (almost as good as the Duke, 200NS, just shy of the CBR 250) ...... id like to try it though ....

                  Cheers ...

                    I use to use premium fuel earlier from day 1 to 2 yrs full, but really it's not something a big change in performance. But yes a small change can we felt. It's on your desire if you want to pay 5-6Rs/liter

                    Ain't you thinking on exhaust kit either ? I don't think you will get 22bhp on engine kit alone, Muffler kit also plays a vital role in this entire mod...

                    I don't think that 31k contains muffler kit also, because in pdf it's a different entity. Do ask SVC before installation. And do it from best SVC..

                    If you really wants to invest then do it quick! So that you can enjoy it more.

                    Frankly speaking I won't suggest you mate to invest this because you are coming very close to CBR250 STD investment. CBR250 power and performance is awesome, which won't come with R15 mods.

                    think wisely before you invest it!!

                    • Bike is not accelerating as it used to before.

                      Hi Every one,

                      I am new to this forum.

                      I am in trouble due to my bike issue. Recently I got free 5th service done for my Yamaha R15 V2. But it is not satisfactory as the bike doesn't accelerate like it used to before.

                      When I clock 7K RPM It does only 65-70Kms/hr. Earlier it used to clock 90+ Kms @ 7-8K RPM. Can someone please help me in getting a good mechanic from Bangalore who can look into my bike issue?

                      I do not want to go back to Yamaha Authorized dealer (Bangalore Wheels) They sucks! I paid 3,800RS for 5th free service in the name of Periodic maintenance & some parts replacements. But they did not look into bike's basic issues that I mentioned above.

                      Thanks,
                      Sachin

                        The prices you have shown is old. The exhaust price has dropped from 16k to 9k. Similarly all other. Many would prefer a powered R15 than any other higher cc bikes since R15 is different. Even if you pump 50hp into the chassis, its handling is unmatched by any other motorcycle out there.
                        Ride, ride and ride.. But always do it responsibly..

                          On a funny note this is not a mutual fund investment to be concerned whether to spend or not ! If one needs more power, he has no other option but to go in for mods which obviously will cost more! Comparing it with CBR cost does not make sense at all because R15 is not a CBR250. It is something different.

                            Show some respect deepak. If someone tells you something, you better listen. Being in Coimbatore, don't you know how stock R15's perform against the CBRs at Kari. You better do your homework before posting anything.

                            And BTW where will you use the full power of CBR/R15/Duke or even Ninja in India. So buy a splendor/platina ( may be 5-6 for the price of a ninja) and be happy with it. Go to office find some free internet. Type in a cock and bull story, drawn from stories across forums/ownership threads or imagining one's self to be a genius of the Nth order. I seriously wonder if the forum transformation filtered few people with "all fart , no fact " Brains.

                            @Deepak : you still owe me a beer the next time i am in Coimbatore bugger
