  • Re: Yamaha YZF- R15 S Owners Reviews and Experiences

    Can anyone help me out with a good service center here in Kolkata.
    I went to Velocity Motors and they messed up my bike. My 2nd free service is coming up in 3 days. I need a good service center really soon.

      Its not coming to India in most probability

                      Congratulations for getting this wonderful machine; And welcome to the club!

                      Looking at this pic of your R15s brings back memories of the day I got mine (same color)

                      I call my ride 'Nimbus' which stands for "a luminous cloud or a halo surrounding a supernatural being or a saint" also because I am a huge fan of Dragonball Z if anyone remembers it from the early 90s

                      Take good care of your bike & Please invest in some decent riding gear. (Mesh Jacket, Decent Helmet, Gloves & Ankle protecting shoes are a must)

                      Go easy on her for the first couple of thousand KMs not because the manual says so; But rather so you know how it reacts in different terrains & situations. Control the urge to push it to the utter limits. Practice lots of braking till you figure out exactly how much load the front can take under panic situations. Listen to the feedback from the engine & the handlebars & let the bike teach you its ways. (Sorry if I sound too poetic here )

                      In your spare time learn how can sharpen your riding skills & Search YouTube for Twist of the Wrist II - Abridged do check it out!

                      And since the rainy season is fast approaching, get a bike cover if you park it outside and buy a can of lube spray and use it religiously after every ride in the rains.

                      Apologies for the long post with a hell lot of instructions, just sharing my insights here.

                      Looking forward to hear about your experiences!

                      Cheers & Ride Safe!

                            Small update from my end. Did this mod to have SBK look , lighter pull and consistent clutch action. Pull is more or less similar to factory wired setup bit rest of the concerns are taken care.

                              Which one is the best paint protection coating available in India ? Ceramic pro is bit costly !
