I need a help. I am about to shift to Bangalore from Kolkata. I want to take my bike with me. What are the formalities I need to do here before I take it there. Also, once I reach there, do I need to take care of formalities there as well?? -
Re: Yamaha YZF-R15 version 2.0
Yeah correctOriginally posted by B7ACKTHORN View PostEngine rebuild, crashed twice. I am giving a green, as long as the motorcycle chassis is in good shape, and the crash was just a minor one. Secondly, an engine rebuild is nothing to worry about, as long as the rebuild itself was done properly, and the bike itself is performing great. Do give heed to look into your chain sprocket, brake pad, and coneset bearing, as these do wear exceptionally fast.
It's a Yamaha, it will serve till Jesus comes! Just give it the love and care it deserves, by maintaining a periodic service chart, and this will clock more than 1.5 lakh KMS happily with the same charm. R15 eyes closed is, was, and will forever be a fantastic machine to ride and own.
Good luck.
Cheers!

Re: Yamaha YZF-R15 version 2.0
I personally do not think it'd be wise to buy this motorcycle due to following reasons:-
1. A yamaha if given adequate maintenance do not need an engine rebuild within 40000kms. Mine has clocked 46k kms and still it's pretty good with a basic maintenance. Japenese make really solid bike unless the rider is nuts and hell bent to choke it.
2. I believe you don't know what all has been change in rebuild, so there are chances that there are still some worn out parts inside which may require replacement in near future.
3. Fairing will cost you a good amount of money.
Overall prima facie it doesn't look like a very good bike and in my opinion you should look for some other bike..

Re: Yamaha YZF-R15 version 2.0
Hi Fellow R15 owners,
I am looking to buy an R15 V2 2011 model. It has clocked 40k kms and has had a engine rebuild recently. The motorcycle was involved in a crash and post that it was repaired and used without a fairing for 800kms. I rode the bike today and the everything feels really smooth in it. What all should i look for before buying the bike ? I would also like to know how much would it cost to for the front fairing and headlight assembly.Leave a comment:

My friend has recently installed tank grips on his V2, the feedback is really good, he has also made a DIY video on how to install the same. Below is the link...

Re: Aftermarket LED headlamp upgrade
I am using the nighteye LED from aliexpress. Using it on my V1 for past 2 years.Originally posted by petronas View Post
Haven't faced any issue yet.
Both beams work on low as well as high beam.
There is a flicker in idle, otherwise it's doing it's job.
Ordered it after talking to Saikat , he helped me in installing them.
Battery is 5amp 3years old. RR unit is the stock one.
Hope this helps.Leave a comment:

Re: Aftermarket LED headlamp upgrade
Not sure what is the cause.Originally posted by petronas View Post
May be: i) battery is old and not holding charge, or ii) RR unit is not charging when hot (in traffic), or iii) the headlight itself is drawing more than 25w.Leave a comment:
