    get a tankpad for your tank.

    assuming you dont remove the entire default stickers, since yours is a red-white you could go for the yamaha 50th GP anniversary look-alike graphics, or the milwaukee yamaha look-alike graphics if you are thinking of making it resemble any of yamaha's pro-race bikes...if you are not fixated on making it resemble some yamaha race bike and are more open to graphic possibilities, well there's all kind of shit you could stick on it..i am not so graphically imaginative haha.

    of course, if you remove the original stickers, you could then re-design its look pretty much any way you want...

          Exactly doesn't have the video of r15 tappet sound... The below links might give you fair amount of idea

          does anyone know why this motor is ticking like it is? Rebuilt it with a tb 148cc kit. Readj. The valves twice now and still cant seem to fig. It out!!!


          I have edited the audio , no gain increase,only removed the bass part, so tell me if the tappet noise is too loud,btw it's a cold engine ,

            Spills of water wont be a problem. Try avoiding as much as possible.
            Ride, ride and ride.. But always do it responsibly..

              dude why only your hid ballast keeps getting loose and hang from under ? :O

              yeah, except 1st and usually also 2nd gears, i too keep the RPMs above 6000 for the most part...absolutely love getting my ass power-pulled the way it does post-6000.

              also, i dont live in or anywhere near pune or bangalore thus no YRC meets for me.
              on the levers, searched around nana peth didnt fid anything worthwhile. So dropped the idea for a while.. Going to lavasa this weekend after long. need to get those knee guards scratched
              Keep Calm and Kaam se Kaam

              To all those how-to-run-in-the-bike-oh-it's-so-confusing. Here's an advice.
              Read and follow the OWNER's Manual. Keep it simple.. Old School technique will do more good than harm your bike

                        I am fine dude...i guess the footrest is made to be broken to avoid more damage...
                        because the impact was too hard to brake others stuffs as well...
                        We have to pay for others mistake I feel bad about that.
                        I never drive harsh.. follow all rules + all riding gears...
                        I went to nearest Yamaha SVC, the part would cost around 80RS and currently not available.
