      Yup I know that bro! And the question I asked was whether the speedo will check it's function when we start it from the remote?

            I was curious what tank grips you guys are using? Tank grips really helps when you brake every time.
            I got this from ebay, for $10. No shipping charges/ duties.

              Yes everything will be fine. Remote start also works perfectly like key start.

                there's no tank grips available that's designed for the R15. Best option is these Keiti Transparent Traction Dots, which can be applied in a ny shapes.
                available in planetdsg, an indian website for2300/- link: Keiti Transparent Traction Dots: TD120C - 2,299.00Rs

                  Hi everyone ,
                  This is mithun from chennai. I got a R15S 3 months back .. 3 days before , had a slight fall which resulted in scratches on the left sides fairing and broken headlight cowl
                  I have some questions now.
                  Took it to the yamaha service centre ,
                  1) They asked me to replace the entire headlamp assembly also cuz of small crack in the doom when seen from inside. They asked to replace the headlight stay also as its bent. I have decided to replace the headlight stay alone and not to replace the assembly. So is it necessary to replace the complete headlight assembly due to some minor crack. The mechanic told it will lead to rattles in quite a few kms.

                  2) The bike leans to the left after the fall which the mechanic diagnosed to be bent front forks of the suspension. Now , he said he can remove the bends from the forks and he charges 1000 for that. I was not convinced about the bend repair process , so I am thinking of replacing the forks. The complete fork assembly costs 6000rs. Now is it necessary to replace the complete fork assembly or just the inner fork tubes ( Each cost 1200) will be enough ?

                  Experts please guide me.
                  Thanks in advance.

                  • R15v2(2015) doesn't starts.

                    I bought a second hand R15v2 before 2 weeks. Today while riding suddenly the bike stops. Yellow warning light glows for 3 seconds continuously. After that i switch OFF the ignition key and again i switch the ignition key ON then the bike starts normally. After sometimes again while riding again the bike stops, now i am not seeing any warning lights. Again I switch OFF my ignition and switch it ON again now no response.I kept the bike in Ignition ON position for 5 mins, the bike suddenly starts its speedo check and turns on after that I tried to start the bike again the bike's speedo gets switch off, and again nothing in speedo. Again I wait for 2 mins the bike starts its speedo check, and after that I tried to start again the speedo gets switch off. After that i called my friend who is nearby and tow my bike to my home. Don't know what happens. Guys any idea? Its a big problem or minor only. I checked with the battery voltage its like 13v and I used my battery for another bike(pulsar), the bike starts smoothly. So no problem with my battery(100% confident)

                    Help me guys.

                      Change the headlight assembly, as im sure the legs thats holding it place must have been broken and it must be staying there just because of the connection to the fairings. over time like the mech said, it'll rattle and may break off. Anyway check the pic, those red circles mark the legs i mentioned, if they are intact, you don't need to replace the headlight.

                      2. Usually only the Inner tube gets damaged in a fall, so replacing 'em both might be sufficient. but make sure your Lower and Upper T-stems are straight too, any bend there will hamper the handling, usually mechs won't go that deep and just replace the forks and gets done with it.

                      Edit: don't try to fix the inner tubes, just don't listen to them in this case. REPLACE THEM.

                      cheers.

                        What is the average drain interval for the Yamalube SL 10W40? It is the OEM suggested oil for R15 after R3 got released, Anyone here using it regularly? How long did it last?

                          Drain interval is about 3000 km. Its cheaper than Motul 7100 which last 4500 km. I have used it thrice. Currently running on Motul. Yamalube is good product. Does its job for the price.

                            So, is the motul 7100 better? Should I change to it?

                            And one more thing,

                            Isn't the SL 10w40 Fully synthetic and won't Fully synthetic oils last longer?

                              Change the head light assembly if it is broken. Yes it will rattle at high rpms and water will seep in during rains/wash. And for the fork, a fall will not bend the fork tubes. It may be got mis alligned and can be corrected easily and if ur changing the forks only inner tubes need to be changed. Outer ones are strong enough to over come a good hit.

                                Yes Motul is indeed better than yamalube, I will suggest to use after 10000km on odo. Its just Yamaha understood lately that people love to rev the bike and to smoothen the things they have introduced fully synth oil. The drain interval remains the same as with semi synth & mineral oil.
