    I guess you posted it in a wrong thread.
    There is a thread 'showcase your ride' where you can post such pics.
    Nice pics though!! I have liked the page on FB and nice mods I see on that R15!

      Why not try out Motul 7100 20W50(if he has that at least in stock :P ). As @Ivin mentioned earlier that too is a good oil and can last long as it is FS oil!

        I wouldn't buy it.Motul says it can guarantee 2yrs shelf life for its oils. What happens to oil beyond that is open for speculation.

            damn, that reminds me i think in a bit of hurry that i was at the time i'd forgotten to check the date of manufacture on the 300v i bought and filled about 3 weeks ago despite my usual habit of checking such things in pretty much anything i buy :|

              Guys today while riding my bike I noticed that when lean from one side to other and go in a zig zag motion there is some vibes and noises comig from the wheels but only at certain angles. And even while driving straight there is some noise from the wheels.

              One more thing I have noticed is that is tick tick sound from the engine? What is that sound?

              And there is some tick sound coneset while braking but the frequency is very low

              And what would be the idle rpm setting for the bike? The svc guys have kept it at 1.5k which I feel is more by the engine sound

                Just check wheteher your break pads are worn out or not!!!! also check whether metal disc plate is fine and its linear!!!! Hope you didnt had any accident/incident which might had effected your metal plate.

                Just go to SVC and ask to check the tappet sound.

                WHile breaking are you getting this sound???
                Also when you go over potholes, humps or uneven roads, do you feel centre pin is loose or handle seems to be bit loose???
                Seems you have damaged your coneset.
                Just get your coneset checked, dont just get your center pin tightened up.

                Ideally it should be somewhere 1.2-1.3k

                  But the sound is different and is not the sound of the brakes. Can this be because of chain being loose

                  And yeah I get that tick sound oly on braking. None of the other symptoms are there which you have mentioned

                    plate.

                    - CAN THIS BE BECAUSE OF CHAIN SLACKNESS BEING MORE THAN THE RECOMMENDED LEVEL OR SOME ISSUE WITH THE WHEEL BEARINGS.

                    - IS IT BECAUSE THE GREASE IN THE WHEEL BEARING HAVE DRIED UP

                    I AM NOT FEELING ANYTHING LOOSE OR ANY PLAY.
                    JUST THE TICK SOUND ON APPLYING FRONT BRAKES BUT NOT ALWAYS.

                      As Saquib has already mentioned the brake pads, I would ask you to check the wheel bearings, as you said the vibes and noises are coming at certain angles only.

                      Again, adding to Saquib's comments, check if the engine is having two different tones at moderate or high RPMs. If it is so then for surely ask the SVC guys to check the tappet (remember to tell them to keep a minimum of 0.2 mm clearance).

                      I had this same sound which I thought to be coming from the coneset but actually it was a rusted swingarm bush. So in addition, check that also. If you feel the handle is rotating smoothly then it may not be coneset.

                      BTW before doing all the checks do one initial checkup of moving your bikes down a slope with engine stopped and at neutral gear. Check what all noises are coming.

                        Both the discs (front as well as rear) are not full smooth throughout. There is a 1-2mm more width at the edge of the discs. Rest of the disc is fairly smooth. Is this normal ? I don't think so, but the braking is good. Odo at 13k.

                        Ride safe and have fun.
