Why did you or would you wash with diesel? Automotive shampoo is not that expensive.Originally posted by shrinathrao View PostHey Friends, I did a complete diesel wash of MY R15 yesterday evening and after giving a good wash went home and parked her. Today morning as i started her to go to my office, i observed that the front break lever has become too hard, and even the bite of the front and rear brake is not as powerful as before. There is no squeaking noise or anything, wondering what can be the reason that the disk brake is not working that effective and the front disk operation is too hard today.
What shall i do as i recently bleeded my brake fluid and refilled it.Beware of Bread, don't say I didn't warn you!
More than 98 percent of convicted criminals are bread eaters !
Statistics show that more than 75 % of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread !
Bread is known to be extremely addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and given only water, actually begged for bread after just two days !
Bread has been proven to kill. Scientists have now uncovered alarming evidence that 100% of the people who eat bread will eventually die !

I think stock batteries would be just fine or you may use amaron 5ah battery, my stock battery works fine supporting 2 HIDs...Originally posted by bprashant View Posthello people i am new here, can you plz help me

I don't think running 60/55 watt bulbs is a good idea, recharging the battery during use may cause a problem and the reflectors may begin to melt/disscolour with the extra heat , best to go for 2x35w/35w bixenons and run them together, many of us use this set up with no issues, just keep the rpms above 3k. Better to check out the let there be light thread, you will find your answers there.Originally posted by bprashant View Posthello people i am new here, can you plz help me

honestly bro i am also quite confuse if i keep the bike above 3k rpm then i can run two bixenon 35w 43k hid at a time ( i mean at low and high beam both ) ?? will there be any prob with the battery ?? btw i am running on stock battery i.e.. 3.5 amp battery

The 3k rpm is standard to keep your battery completely charging when you ride the bike. i m not sure about 2 bixenons as i m using one stock 35 and other bi xenon on high beam.Originally posted by sunny9830687955 View Posthonestly bro i am also quite confuse if i keep the bike above 3k rpm then i can run two bixenon 35w 43k hid at a time ( i mean at low and high beam both ) ?? will there be any prob with the battery ?? btw i am running on stock battery i.e.. 3.5 amp battery

No probs at all, I have been running for 6 months, many have been using for well over a year, remember the high beam is the same as low beam, the solenoid in the bixenon just moves the position, contact Navnish on the forum, he sells good quality kits. If you can stretch to a projector set up with bixenons, that will be the best you can get.Originally posted by sunny9830687955 View Posthonestly bro i am also quite confuse if i keep the bike above 3k rpm then i can run two bixenon 35w 43k hid at a time ( i mean at low and high beam both ) ?? will there be any prob with the battery ?? btw i am running on stock battery i.e.. 3.5 amp batteryBeware of Bread, don't say I didn't warn you!

Bad idea, don't do it, it will just damage your refelector in 3 months or even less time. Best would be to do for HIDs and if you want the same kind of color as your current stock bulbs, go for HID with 4300K temperature for best visibilityOriginally posted by bprashant View Posthello people i am new here, can you plz help me

Hello there..
I am currently running following setup..
Low Beam- stock 35W bulb.
High Beam - Philips Premium 60/55W bulb (85 Rs.)
disconnected Pilot bulbs to save 10 W
And I use low beam all the time and High Beam when required.. I have never had any battery issues.. as said earlier, if bike is above 3K RPM, I feel comfortable using high beam, otherwise uses low beam.
Just a bit of caution, nothing else.
I hope, you already know, how to adjust the headlight beam with adjusting screws on either side of speedoMeter.
For battery, I would have gone for one size up.. that is maintenance free 5Amph tata green or whichever type..no practical idea.. search in this thread, and ping the people who have done that already..
ride on..

@all: upgrading to 2* 55w bulbs is not a good idea and instead the glow won't be good as it would require more power and the battery won't be able to support it and you will notice that the battery is draining up fast.
(after installing the 2*55w bulbs you'll feel that the 35w bulbs were better
)
The best idea is to either get HID's intalled (even the Chinese ones work better) or get the headlight beam/focus adjusted.
P.S.- all that I've said is based on personal experience.My Stable.....
