    yea, thats because they picked one from one of their existing bikes so that they didnt need to invest in them

        Yesterday, I got the tires of my bike changed. The MRF tyrewallah had trouble re installing the rear wheel but the front was installed in a jiffy.
        I noticed that the front wheel wasn't moving as free as it should and it started emanating a rubber on rubber friction sound, the Mrf mechanic tried something but it won't go. After riding 3 km back home, the noise became even more prominent and the resistance too. Took the bike straight to SVC where they greased the sensor and re installed the wheel. Things were fine until I went to college and came back today but now the noise comes back again. It appears that it increases as I ride.
        Any suggestions?

          Try reinstall the old tyre and check whether you are getting the same noise

            It was an improperly fitted sensor hub that caused the noise

              Yellow malfunction light flashing? If so then check for sensor connection or possibly the sensor cable had to be replaced

                Last year around this time, the new colors were released. But this time, it gets delayed, even the site isn't getting updated. I really think its getting a new ECU and some other mods(not visual) since one of the Yamaha dealers suggested it over FB too.

                  Did a 450km high-speed run yesterday with speeds we'll above 110 continuously at 5am in the morning.

                  These are my observations
                  Bike has become butter smooth
                  pick up has reduced especially 6th gear.
                  Topspeed reduced to 135 from 145kmph.
                  Bike starts up as if it is suffocated and settles at 1300rpm after throttling a bit.

                  Are the tappets too tight?
                  I get a secondary tik tik noise other than the tappets anybody experienced it?
                  Had setup a HI Lo HID on both sides of headlamp and got to test it as well, bike doesn't take HID HI well even at highspeeds and engine check light switches on after an hour on the stock battery, not recommended at all. Decided to run on hid only on one side next time.
                  Same thing is happening to me. My bike's engine is not getting started when its cold. But when its warm, the idle RPM is settling at 1.3k. And I am also getting the tik-tik sound. I am yet to solve the issues. But I have asked many experts and they have given me the following possible causes:

                  1st Prob:

                  1. Low Compression.
                  2. Valve clearance not correct.
                  3. Battery not charged correctly.
                  4. Fuel system not adjusted correctly.

                  2nd Prob:

                  1. Valve clearance not correct.
                  2. Front brake faults.
                  3. Cone set.
                  4. Fork issues.

                  I will check out this causes one by one. Will let you know what has been the exact cause for each of the probs. Meanwhile you can also check them out and share the findings.

                    I was referring to the speedo sensor buddy

                      New handlebar grips?? And can we swap the ecu?? If its closed loop, then i think its not possible.. Else i hope its swappable

                        No no, thats just a wrap up. If an O2 sensor comes in , I too dont think it would be interchangeable.

                            Hey guys, just met with an accident today.got slipped off and my left side outer fairing took the hit..
                            The R15 sticker is ripped off and there is crack(not deep) but color is off.. And few scratches(not noticeable) on left side headlamp

                            How much does MotoGP edition outer fairing cost??

                            There was yellow light, but as i turned the engine off and back on it was gone...is it ok to ride or should i check at svc??
                            And i am starting to feel that the engine is getting stressed in every gear at every rpm...

                              Hope you are safe. The part costs around Rs.1000. The yellow light comes on during a fall as reported by many. I hope the yellow light has gone off now, if not, get it checked by a Yamaha dealer. A fall where the fairing took the hit wont cause any engine stress. Its just your mind playing with you Ride safe.
