7 months old, and had my first puncture today. Got it removed.
1) Anyone used/using slime products for treating punctures ? Are they worth it ?
2) And do we just have to remove the nail(what ever caused puncture) or do something else too?
3) Any idea about the cost of these ?

I hope the following thread might be useful for you. Have a look at it!!

Ride-on TPS (tyre protection system). Totally worth it. Been using it for 10 months, 6,000 kms without any problems whatsoever. Added bonus; the formulation also balances your tyres

Had gone to the work shop today. There was no electricity , though.I am a bit thankful for it because the guy there said meddling with the swingarm is something they have not done as of yet, but did not refuse to do it in any way, he being a friend of mine. I am skeptic about giving my swingarm in inexperienced hands. Should I do it at all? I may be wrong, but i think swingarm and steering bearings are not subjected to much movement compared to the wheel bearings. Have greased the wheel bearings at 10,000 km. I wonder whether to totally skip out the swingarm greasing?

Guys , how much for the r15 whole fairing ? Today i saw a fz with the v2.0 sunset red fairing. Was wondering how much cash these guys are spending on fitting something that spoils their rides and basically the vehicle cost and the fairing cost +fitting chage would have gotton them an r15 itself. Weird i must say.

Cheers
Ride safe

We're going to Goa in March end, so track day is out of scope. But we will surely try for YRC anniversary day and definitely let you know in much advance to avoid any inconvenience.
In case we decide at the last moment, all the headaches on us only, will directly meet on event day

Yes, you can surely wait till May i.e. ODO ~15k.

nahi re, no problems at all. just let us know when and how many

you still have time so you can plan up.
FYI Tj had done pune to bangalore in 12 hours :P so take 2 days for travelling to and fro. and 1 day for yrc anni and one day for going around bang.

ride on friday, stay on saturday and roam around, sunday have fun and return on monday.

Guys...Need some help. Got a bit of problem. Recently i feel that My bike is not That stable when i brake with clutch engaged.. But it is stable when i brake without engaging clutch ( Think so).. Is this normal?? i dint Run into any potholes tat hard.. i think i just ran over one medium sized stone which was buried just at 30kmph,which shouldn't have caused any problems..Checked the forks for damage but none. Dont know about alignment. Tyre pressure perfect. I dont know whats the problem..Anyone?? I feel like some kind of wobbly feeling when i brake with clutch engaged..

Or is it my mistake of braking with clutch engaged? i know we lose traction but i thought its only for cornering... anyone help plz

I was asked to post some more pics of my LS2 FF350

**himanshunegi1987** · 03-10-2013, 09:31 AM

Back from Rishikesh on my R15. Had my 3rd service done yesterday. Now i have started noticing that engine has started heating up sooner, fan start kick in sooner. My coolant level has also not gone down since it was filled during the first service. Any suggestions ?
And is it a nice idea to fit a mobile charger on r15 bike ? If yes, any particular choices ?

Since you got 3rd servicing a few days ago, bad Engine oil cannot be the cause(assuming you changed the engine oil). Still check the engine oil for its color and level. If engine oil is not the culprit than the problem has to be with non-smooth circulation of coolant. I once had vapor lock and coolant wasn't circulated properly. If that's the case(which I doubt highly in ur low mileage bike), you ll have to replace head gasket and re-fill the coolant after draining the previous one or bleed and top-up.
