    Re: Yamaha YZF-R15 version 2.0

    Parked my r15 near a slum ,some asshole made a dent on left side tank from which a considerable amount of paint has chipped off ,fkin haters. ..!! [MENTION=76078]alwaysusing[/MENTION] there is a triangle shaped metal part just below handle bar and above shocks joining the handle bar assembly. I think since left side triangle corner has broken due to accident.
    Get it dismantled, take it to welder and get a tiny miny peice of metal welded to it.

      Had similar issue with my bike too. The clipon was slightly out of place. Adjust it, then it should be OK

          Clip ons are your handle bars. If you notice a non-sports bike, you will see the handle bar is one long bar. Our bikes, the handle bars are 2 seperate pieces attached to the fork using bolts. each piece is a clip on.

            Right! So I should loosen it when a Allen key and adjust it accordingly and done ?

              If you're confident and you know you'll do it right, otherwise get it adjusted during the next service.

                Hey guys I have owned the bike since 29 July 2014 and I think the rear tail section now has come down by some amount..is it possible because it looks a lot down when viewed.!.has anyone experienced any sch problems? I also am thinking about replacing the stock rear mono shock with a aftermarket one any suggestions or recommendations.?

                thanks for the shifting info.Turns out I wasn't letting go of the throttle fully and now I shift smoothly Al the way up to the redline. And I also have noticed that it is better and easier to speed shift after 7000 and much smoother.will it trouble me in the long run?

                Greetings from Singapore.

                Have been religiously following this thread for about a year now and only registered recently after facing this minor issue.

                Here is my bike as introduction.





                I had a accident about 2 weeks back involving a car hitting me from the side causing me to skid and fall on the left.

                Got fairing replaced, headlight cowl and I noticed that when steering my bike towards the left, the handlebar is able to steer till it "crushes" my fingers between the tank. On the right, it has no issue as the maximum turning radius allows my fingers to be within a safe distance from the tank.

                Here are some pictures




                Any idea on what could the issue be?

                Thanks in advance guys!
                Great looking bike buddy!
                can u post some more pics and I want to buy the levers and the golden little things on your engine what are they?
                Can u post the link to those parts and will they ship to India ?
                i checked the Handel bar spacing I have the small gap on both ends!

                        Learn to ride, twist of the wrist (book or video will guide you)

                        ----consecutive posts auto-merged-----

                        @alwaysusing , you have either bent your left side clip on or yolk, or the clip on has moved under the impact, easiest thing to try is to loosen the nut of the clip on left side and adjust it, there should be some marking to guide you (not sure, as I have not removed either of my bars) that would be your first try, if it's still not satisfactory I would guess the left bar has a slight bend, in which case you would need to replace the part.

                          Need help !!!
                          A friend owns a V2 2014 model.
                          His Orange warning light comes up almost every day for around half a minute and then turns off by itself. IT DOESNT BLINK. Engine Heat is fine. The bike behaviour remains unchanged during this time. What could be the issue?

                          And once or twice on different occasions the bike gave hiccups and stalled, it ran fine after restart. No Warning lights came on.

                          Please help. Thanks

                            Hi guys, got my bike a few days back. Today while riding the brakes lost power, when I checked the disc fluid had come out near the disc and the rubber cap had opened. I took it to a nearby mechanic and he told that the nut wasn't tightened. The disc oil was empty and he put new disc oil which was red color. Now the brake isn't effective and has a lot of play. Do I have to ride for some distance or should I do bleeding?

                              Bleeding should sort it.

                                I asked my mechanic and he told drive for 2 days it'll be proper as the disc oil was spilled on the disc, I've washed the rear tyre. Anyways will do bleeding tomorrow if it doesn't return to normal. Thanks for your reply
