How did u manage to get it without the booking?

I am from Allahabad(U.P.)
As this place is not so big and sunset red and white(L.E.) is most popular here no one booked black till then.

The bike you got is absolutely fine... Initially I too thought of the same thing about rear brakes, but after that have driven many of my friends R15 v2 and it all felt the same.

The reason behind less braking power is that most of the weight is concentrated in front. So front works great without skidding even under harder braking. Try hard with ur rear and it will start skidding at once. I hope you got the reason and apply braking at Front:back::75:25.

thanks dude... and what about the "ghee" sound ?

For south India one reason is track and the next one is road that are far better then the north.

hi, i am new to all of you but this thread is not new for me.
i got my bike yesterday 19-03-2012 and the most interesting part was i got the bike(r15 v2.0 Black) without booking.

It cost me Around 1.22 Lakhs On-Road.

There are already so many beautiful reviews present in this thread so i am not going to write about it.
i have 2 doubts which i want to clarify :
1) While coming home(with pillion),the braking was too good when i was applying the both brakes but when i was applying only rear brake i feel the braking was not so good. Is this a problem for me only or anyone also facing the same or is this normal?
2) In the evening when i start the bike one "gheee" type sound was coming, is this the radiator's fan sound(engine was not hot that time) ? And is there any problem with that?
sorry for the picture quality, will post better pics later

Even I got my bike without booking at Sri motors chennaiat 7th march... They used to have some bikes in stock... By the way I got Firey Red LE without booking!!!
Thanks to Srimotors...

@ Shada007

@ gklc811

Congratulation on your Purchase of New Baby R15 V 2.0 And welcome to this Family .

Sri motors Chennai sometimes will have Excess stock so that you can just go and make Full payment and you can bring your bike home in that same day or by the next day .

But if you go by Finance means , they will take " 3 " working days to process your loan amount and you will be able to bring your bike by " 1 " week .

1 . Do you both live in and around K.K.Nagar or T.Nagar ? ( If yes means , i also live in K.K.Nagar . So that we can have G2G meet and we can share our experience

) ( If you don't want to Publicize here means you can PM me )

@ sayad007

you have to use front 70% and rear 30% at all times that's the art of braking with r15

Well , I will be getting my Bike on/before 15 th April 2012

Cheers S.V.Prasad

Hi all I have completed around 540 Kms. I kept my bike strictly below 5K RPM for the first 500 kms. After that i took it to 7K RPM(under hard acceleration). and I feel vibrations at around 3-5K RPM.
Help me out. THanks in advance...
