    How is the audio on the Hero 4 Session? I was thinking of getting myself one to start some Moto VLogging.
    It's got dual mics. Which is good if you are doing vlogs. But not good for motovlogs.
    You need an additional mic.

      Had problems of bike not starting and engine shutting off - error code 19 was being displayed . found out from the international R3 forum that it may be a sidestand switch issue .Has anybody else had this issue ? The problem is my service centre is 150 kms away.

        It's the contact issue, spray WD40 on contacts of engine kill switch and key hole.

          what, the bike has a side stand switch?

          What does it do?

              I read the manual and it says that the bike wont start if the side stand is open. But my bike starts even with the side stand ON. So the switch/sensor is not working??

                  In US version, there is side stand switch in which bike doesn't start when side stand is down but in Indian version this feature is disabled by a jumper. But many have faced error code 19 which was due to contact break and removed by spraying WD40 on contact points.

                      got the same code the factory mechanic is going to check what the problem is tomorrow.

                      hi guys, my engine cut out twice while i was riding on the highway. The first "notice" of some issue was an uncharacteristic jerk when i just shifted into gear 5 and slowly rolled on the acceleration. like there wasnt a spark for 1 or 2 revs. The first time the engine cut out was when i was...
                      As I gaze upon your beauty, I think to myself, "never have I seen an angel fly so low".

                        Engine cut out while riding, error code 19 - Yamaha R3 Forum
                        This is what my service centre head sent me (attached image) . Tried it at home the error code went off and bike was starting but after fitting back the seat the code came back once , so problem not solved ,let me know your experience.

                          yes you are right bro, though there are a few more mods.
                          Ride feeling is more responsive and sporty now. Its like bettering the best. hehe
                          Though it might be a little uncomfortable on longer runs, but as of now I am not doing any touring so I took the handle bar below. When I will tour I will make it to stock setup.




                          Hummm... Yes, You have a very keen observation bro.

                              My Rear MRF tyre got cracked, punctured, peirced and what not. This is only after 1 month of regular use so decided to change them for good. Didn't bothered to go for a replacement since I am done with MRFs.

                              Ordered from X-Torque. Waiting for tomorrow when its done.
                              The new set is of Michelin - Pilot Street Radial 110/70-17 - 140/70-17 stock size.
                              Total cost (front/rear)- INR 10836/- + INR 750/- fitment.

                              Not sure If I got a good deal but it was urgent. Will post the pics soon after.
