It seems like he used rear brake to reduce speed in the middle of the corner. It is purely the fault of the rider.Originally posted by [IN]BeTrayedxD View PostHello Guys

he did some mid corner corrections with applying rear brake which is very rookie mistake.and the question remains why do i race?

nice video up there.. actually i think this is a lesson for him and everyy r15 owner here.. dont ever ever brake while cornering and if ur just learning to corner first be sure u try it on lower speeds and then gradualy increase ur speeds.

Just heat a knife a cut through the selected area and all is well. Remove the complete hugger and do it .Originally posted by ESCAPEXPERThey guys i m planning to remove my rear hugger and saree guard...what are the probs and cons if any...also i attached pics for the removal of it(made myself), how it will look after removal(took from net)...is the removal technique correct ???
One more thing...should i have to cut it(the huger) as show by 'CUT IT FROM HERE'...ALSO i dont want to remove the whole rear guard as rear disc wire is attached to it...so do i have to cut it...if yes then with what tool should i cut it...
help pls...
Ride, ride and ride.. But always do it responsibly..

Well i think removing the rear mud guard will not make a very big difference. Cuz the area fr mud to splash is much more in case of the new r15. Just my opinion.Originally posted by sayank10 View PostComment

@ DrVENOM and r_c111, happy to help
@[IN]BeTrayedxD, nice find, the video's an essential lesson on how not to corner, rear tyre skids are can be fun, and dangerous...
Has anyone tried a rear seat cowl for V2.0? Any idea how much it would cost?Comment

Any vibes faced ?
I am facing a little now...
Yet to complete first service...
Will it vanish of @ the first service?Comment

I far as i can observe, following maybe the reasons for this guys crash.Originally posted by [IN]BeTrayedxD View Post
-He was carrying too much speed through the corner.
-His lean is a bit aggressive compared to other R15. His lean angle was more.
-As far as the video goes, he has done a bit of mid-corner steering, cause he obviously was under-steered for the corner.
-Not much of video track to suggest he rear braked, cant see that.
-Maybe the tires have not been run-in, and maybe they are brand-new. (Yes, the tires too have something called run-in).
-Not sufficient temperature in the tyre for better grip.
@Shaan athani
-Gears change maybe hard till first servicing. Check for chain lube state. The state of the chain has a big contribution to how easy the gear change is. Also check chain-slack, if at all needed. These will anyways be carried out during first service. Its okay.
-Loud click noise with every gear shift is okay. That's from the shifter.
-Loud thud when engaging first gear is also okay. Enjoy the bike. Lube the chain if necessary.Last edited by DrVENOM; 03-26-2012, 12:45 AM.Comment
