RVM is the abbreviation for Rear View Mirrors. And did u remove it ?

Nope. They told me to get it in the evenings. But it was rainy yesterday so i gotta get those Mirrors and Saree guard. But i guess that saree guard and mirrors are gonna make the bike look somewhat Bad. But being safety my first preference i will have to put them

Today morning i took the bike for a ride (at 6:45am).
Just did a 0-110 test.

I ended up 0-110 with 16 seconds (approx).
(Extra info : The road was wet and i didnt have enough confidence on braking. And i do not have a licence too. So its better to stay below 100 for now )

Guys...whats the tire pressure to be maintained to avoid handling problems? please its urgent

Finished the second service today. Not much good service. .

They say there is no Stock for even a Allen screw. A.

the hard gear issues is ok for now. There is no smoothness in the gears, but I think it will be smooth after some kms.

Guys, the complete log is up on my thread. Check it out.
I have only posted a couple of pics of my bike there as it was supposed to be a general thread. But, here now.... something to droooool over :P

Enjoy Guys! Drive safe!

132kmph with pillion ??? That's good!! but i was thinking how did it do it with a pillion, DId it take time and open road??

Hi All, did a solo ride yesterday 19.09.2012 to Pondicherry from Tambaram (Chennai) in my CBR 150R. It was exciting and learnt new things (physics) of riding. I rode all alone on ECR till Pondicherry and returned back. Couldn't spend time to take snaps as i was late to reach there. Yes, it took lot of time and promises to get APPROVAL from my family (Wondering how ppl have done SS as simple as that). Started from home at 3.30 pm. Moved slowly till Perumbakkam and once i reached ECR, revved fast. I thought ECR would be nice though aware of insane 4 wheelers, and beleived there will be many fuel stations that will accept card...but in reality only one accepted and nowhere you can find ATM once you pass Mahabalipuram. MY CBR did a fabulous job. Just a act of balance saved me from a speeding red Santro Xing in the opposite direction overtaking the other. They were 3 cars coming parallel from the opposite direction and i am in 80s. This happened before Mutukadu. After Mahabalipuram somewhere a calf came in front of me all of a sudden...what to expect...i tried brakes hard , with my rear tire skided ( not let me down) and just missed hitting the calf. Punched myself for not watching the calf. One more instance happened with a mad man crossing the road on a turn. He is really mad. I had 150 bugs only in my purse and after being let down by few fuel station got worried and afraid. Only three bars showing (most of it used up) and i am not even half way to Pondicherry. Finaly filled the tank in HP station. Till here it was full of drama followed by smooth ride till Pondicherry. Just clicked that Pondicherry arch on the highway and Pondicherry University. My camera showed no internal memory, delete some images ??? I forgot memory card. Even otherwise i would not have spent much time in clicks and i reached there only at 5.45 pm and it almost dark because of just finished rain. Bought some snacks / fancy articles and headed back to Tambaram at 6.20 pm. I was scary as though i am in some alein territory. Eagerly looked for TN vehicles who are on there way to Chennai just for a company. All i could see were PY number plates only. Rode some 20 kms away from Pondi..it was pitch dark. THUT...a bat banged on my face just below my left eye through the helmet. Later some time i found a sumo passing me...luckily TN number plate. I just followed at the same speed ( 80 to 95). It is safe to ride behind 4 wheeler at considerable distance in dark as you can avoid unexpected intervension. Inside Sumo there were some guys staring at my Bike as it glides effortless. That was like boost to me...and i rode tirelessly following the Sumo till some place before Covelong where it stopped for break. Finally i reached home at 8.45 pm. Total distance travelled 280 kms (virtually non stop) ..did not realy pinch hard. Lost the balancer in my Left handle bar on the way to Pondi. I didnt see it got loosened and fell off on road.
Thats all for now.
PS: I am not posting this here for show off...i am aware this is just childs play for Touring GURUS here.

the bike doesnt go smooth after crossing 70kmph on speedometer.
.

well i have one more question can anyone suggest a good service center or mechanic in bangalore for the CBR-150R.

GUYS, pls help me on this.. where can i get some good pair of glove .. preferebly fingerless.. My budget is not beyond 1000 rupeess..

I also planned to take a ride to pondi last week.. But felt somewhat lazy and i dont have gloves.. My hands are getting numb just for a 45 kms ride ( My office is 45 kms from my house).. and i hate this...

45kms one side and 90kms both side???

And you brought a CBR 150 ??? Why not a TBTS or electra?? ANd daily riding to office would be boring ?? I ride 40kms both side and i am bored daily, we can't race daily to be entertained!!

Mostly why din't you opt for car like alto or Eon with CNG ?? That would have been more affordable on daily route ??

You will finish your SVC very quick!!

or do you term weekend sprints as a race.

any bike for daily commute is absolutely okay depending on the rider -- when an r15 can do 100 kms daily office commute for two years, rest everything should be notch higher on the comfort level

Yes .. 90 KMS both sides

I wont take it daily .. .so i enjoy my ride a lot (not getting bored)..Once or twice a week to office and weekends i wud roam around ... & I wont take the bike when it rains... .. my bike is 2 months old and completed just 1300 kms.. which is infact very less..
