Roger that... But check this link-----> MRF ? Official Website Go and select the Make and model i.e Yamaha R15 to which it shows Zapper FY TL for the front which is correct and the size is apt! But the rear is shown as Zapper S TL which has the size 140/70 17 and not 130! Thought that it hasn't been updated since the version 1 and searched manually and could not find MRF REVS

Has MRF stopped its "REVS" tyre????

. By the way where you get this size in pirelli...

Oh yeah

Didin't realise that till now

Well... The Aspect ratio of this Pirelli is bigger than the stock which means that this one is not much of a low profile tyre like the stock and that won't do much of a change i believe

Well... Where do I get it? You mean the place??

Regular customer eh?

Well I'm also going for the Sport Demon but one problem is that there is no 90/80-17 for the front but they've got 100/80-17 M/CTL 52H SPORTD F

That's the only hurdle I've got!!!

Rear 130/70-17 M/C TL 62 H SPORTD is Perfect and equal to stock specs!

Re: Yamaha YZF-R15 version 2.0

Can someone spot the difference between the chain settings on each side? If yes, is it significant?

i think there's another rider in this thread who recently posted about installing smaller levers (front brake and clutch i believe)...if that person is reading this, he can maybe suggest you something.

I have installed adjustable levers on my r15, they are not as short as shorty levers, but much better than the stock ones. Here are some pics of it

I got these of GP Road in Chennai for 1k (the same levers are sold on ebay for 2500!) . But I heard from @abhimanyu31 that Motozone sells something similar. You can check out with him, or visit Motozone's page on fb.
[MENTION=52770]Sushrut[/MENTION] The best way to tell that is by checking the chain slack.

Nope I use to go with my friend. He always looking for some cool stuff for his baby... The last time we have been there just to get projectors for my bike as well as his Duke 200. Not so pleased with quality though.. But we both bought it through ebay mine cost 6k and his 3k with better quality, we finally go there for installing work & we spend around 700 each for installing HIDs

Which ASC was this? Let me guess? JMB Anna Nagar?

Yes.... Its off by half point in swingarm marking... Please fix it asap. It affects handling, vibrations in foot peg and improper wear of tyre.

Btw,is it a brand new chain sprocket set??

from my experience, JMB Anna Nagar is one of the worst ASCs out there. During last service, I had to change my left RVMs, but they didn't have stock of it. The guy at the billing billed it up and then he said he will let me take the mirrors when they get stock. I called them every week and there was no response. Took those buggers one full month to get RVMs for a freaking R15. I am done with them. These guys got nothing in stock and they are very lazy. I didn't even get a keychain when I took delivery. Sairam Motors gave a couple for free when I serviced my bike there and they know how to treat a customer. I'm going to do my future servicing from there itself, besides I'm thinking of doing the next service myself.
