    There is a option, but it is very very expensive. Bell helmets has come up with a transition visor for its helmet. If you insist on a color visor that can be used in night then that is your best option. You can take a look at it over here: Bell Transitions Photochromatic Visor Review - Motorcycle USA
    Well.. Thats nice.. am ready to spend 5k too.. but, is it available in india...
    can we see how it looks/works before buying..

    Mmmmm. then i should buy a helmet with tinted visor and open it while riding at night..

            I am not sure about type of chain, i will lubricate the chain this week. Thanks for the info

            Short note: Just tried once , 1st gear goes upto 50km, if u revv hard i hope engine is in good condition
            I think you will be the first person to reach 20000km in CBR 150 R . The only pain I get is in the arms and shoulders. No back pain and leg pain during the first drive.

            I like to rev in first gear much!But I have to wait for the finish of run-in

              Congrats Bro!!! Dude I will suggest you to visit Helmet Paradise in JC Road (opposite to Urvashi Theatre). There are super cool collection of Helmets there. I bought 1. LS2 Helmet (2700/-) and 2.A pair of Gloves(650/-). There are Biking Jackets also available there which starts from 5500/-. If you want you can go for that, i couldn't get the jacket due to short of money but i will buy one very soon.

              I think this info might help you!!! and Congrats again !!! When are you getting your bike form Saphire Honda and what accessories they are providing???

                      Thanks manoj...
                      i thought will will get helmet from showroom itself, anyway - will give a try in JC road.
                      They havent yet confirmed about the accessories - my finance thing will confirmed today and then i can check all these.. Am planning to take a body cover, seat cover, helmet lock (cant carry helmet everywhere i go)grip cover. Not sure what else - is side stand also to be bought as accessory?? is there anything i ask them for?

                        No No....side stand comes with the bike.....you don't need to pay for it. it's depends on you....and bargain with them to give the accessories free..

                        Can you tell me when are you going to get your bike???

                          i can confirm the exact date may be in a day or two.. they told me once the finance is approved, it may take approx 5 days to deliver the bike..so roughly am guessing must be mid of next week.

                            Whats the reason for this? can anyone tell me?

                            Hello bro . This is common for all Bikes . When i travel on empty roads or on over bridge , the cross wind will push me and my bike towards the opposite side direction of the cross wind . And yes , the bike will shake and even i had felt of loosing the balance . But if we get used to the BIKE means , we can balance the bike easily .
                            To other owners in Chennai :

                            May i know any one bike got TN - 09 BP - 7xx9 registration ? It was orange white CBR 150 r . That guy was driving normal and i was following , overtook him , went side by side and at last i again followed him to notice the BEAUTY of the Bike and its exhaust note . We both were driving around 50 km/hr
