  • Re: Yamaha YZF-R15 version 2.0

    Hi guys... I feel difference in handling after every chain adjustment.. But the alignment are perfect everytime. Is this normal?? I guess there will be tiny imperfections ( adjusting the screw a little bit more is not changing the level on swing arm ) which causes this.. Is this normal??
    Seniors plz help [MENTION=37022]Ron Syl[/MENTION] or [MENTION=26077]abhimanyu31[/MENTION] Also they changed my rear brake pads.. Should i check something for this handling prob??

        i would be worried if you felt difference without adjusting the chain since you adjust it, you are bound to feel difference. i have not done such thing, so cant say more. your rear pads need to set in. wil take about 200kms.

        BTW sid, i hope you got the news about yrc riding to valparai get in touch with kotty. i just updated him yest.

            The disc seems to be of R15 v1. Pls clarify it. What about the caliper holder ?

              The discs are compatible with both R15 V1 and V2. Though for the V1 you will have to make an extension to the
              caliper for it to fit properly. We are working on making the extension available as part of the kit as well.
              I am talking about the front disc. Both the bikes have different discs.

                The rear disc is compatible with both V1 and V2.
                Need a font disc for v2. The only company that makes it for v2 is Daytona and its price is.. err.. too much.

                  Ride to Valparai? When? Also, where are you going for in-plant training? I am desperately looking for one. Can you pm the details of both?

                    Hello,

                    I use motomax Dashboard polish for every fibre part on my R15, is that wrong.....my friend says, it is wrong as it will spoil fibre paint with regular use....i dont think so.

                    and what about NGK iridium spark plug which is of 550rs.....is it good and worth?....

                    has anyone tried doing black rear end for R15 v2, red.......its original rear color is white.....i have seen very good paint job in Bhopal.....in that combination....Bhopal is very good for Bikes stuff.....people are crazy for there Rides.....

                      Yes it bad.. Its only meant for dashboard black plastic.. Get a wax or motomax polish for other metal and fibre parts..

                      No idea on the rest and R15 uses NGK as stock.. Dunno its iridium or not and am happy with red and white

                        Did my first 400km+ ride yesterday. Just a question, I was riding and passed over a deep pothole. After 10-12km I got flat tire(front). There wasn't any puncture or so. Luckily, I found puncture-wala after 500m, he just filled up the air and it was all good. I rode 150+km after that and it's still fine. Why did it happened?

                          Check the tyre pressure again today. It is possible that when you went over the pothole, the rim might have bent a little and hence air must have leaked out.

                              You want an exhasut system alone and dont want to trouble your engine ? I say, stick to stock.

                                paradox. You can't have the best of both worlds, there is something called as a trade-off, to get the goodness of one you must sacrifice the goodness of some other part.
