2) Fuel injection system and self check mode (That's the noise)
3) To check oil level, open the nob at the bottom end of the right hand side of engine. And the coolant level can be seen from the left hand side beneath the seat ... (Other, Please help me put in better words)
4) Press the button once, when you see trip 1, press again but don't release, after 4-5 seconds it will reset.
5) Enjoy...

Thanks a lot for assisting..

Stalling below 3k - Resolved!

The SC guys had replaced the Adapter that comes with spark plug during my service, but that made no difference.

The problem has been resolved now when the distance between the Adapter and Spark plug was corrected (correct me if am wrong, this is what i was able to make out from what the Sc guy said).

Thanks to harjotR15 & speedemon, whose posts made me get a better idea on the cause of this problem; gave me peace beforehand

Guys mine is a new V1 - 520kms on ODO - 20days old

I have a strange problem, when i come below 3k rpm, the bike behaves as tho there is a blockage in the fuel. This does not happen on a cold engine, it moves smooth. This happens only after i travel 4-5kms. Its very hard to travel in traffic or crowded streets with this problem where one cannot rev more than 3k rpm. Even on the first gear i cannot travel in less speeds. Even with half clutch acceleration, this happens and the engine stopped twice last night.

What might be the reason for this problem ?

I would be pointing out this during my first service. But wonder what would be the source for this problem. Experts, pls throw some light on this !!

my R15 started stalling at idle and low RPM in all gears, most below 3K RPM it just stalls, at the feel is like its deprived of fuel and thats why its stalling, I hear a "kit-kit" sound from left side some where before the stall, it difficult to ride the bike as I have to keep the rev above 3K to avoid the stall.

please let me know what might be the cause and did any owner have experienced it before.

Bike stats
2.3 years old, only 5K on odo.

Hey
I had the same problem and the solution is very simple.
You need to get the Spark Plug Cover(Black in colour) replaced. It costs around 75 bucks and happens generally during rains.

Hey Pramod, you need to ask the service station to change your "adapter". I know exactly what you're talking about. In fact, I just changed the adapter on my bike today. This problem is common during the monsoons, I have changed it thrice now in two years. Costs just Rs76/- so won't hurt your pocket.

My first look on Black V2

For first time saw a black V2 on the roads today.. The bike sure is a heard turner

in fact i tailed him for few moments as i was completely lost in the sparkling LED tail lights !!

Then went past him and as he noticed me, his adrenaline pumped to show up its a V2!!

But din give him a chance.. no matter its V1, it still is a R15 !!!

**preetham dias** · 10-22-2011, 11:13 PM

i have some problem with the smoothness of the bike
does reviving hard affects the smoothness
and the gear shifts are hard
and also while changing gear there s some jerk when up shifting
how much ll the clutch plate cost
someone pls help

**Parth** · 10-23-2011, 12:28 AM

My bike's battery is dead after 1.5 years of use. I don't have much time to get it replaced till a couple of days. Does push-starting a fuel injected bike cause any long term problems?

**soojy007** · 10-23-2011, 12:29 AM

R15 V2 posts are being put here also it seems. anyway here is my copy-paste

waiting period 20-25 days, onroad - 126,540(mysore)

black is out of the equation, my decision is between red and blue. For the time being i booked a blue one.

i absolutely love the RED one:

but does the white underpiece get muddy/dirty easily from dust/dirt thrown from the front tyre ?

whoever has taken sunset red, please help me out on this.

R15 IS for reviving hard only BRO..
but chain treatment is mandatory after every 500KM.. clean it,lube it and you are ready again, for reviving hard..
gear shift hard, jerk on upshifting.. chain treatment..

happy revving..

check your oil level, if is fine then best get to the svc and have it checked out, other than this to have a smooth ride keep your drive chain lubed and have the slackness checked periodically. Even one ride in the rain can wash away some of the lube, so get that checked.....

hey there!
i took my r15 from JMB anna nagar. T-Nagar JMB is the HQ.

anyway coming to the point:
1. look for scratches on body panels, check electricals, if possible check the oil levels also. While taking delivery i had my front wheel assembly changed since it had paint marks(whitewash) all over it.

2.A teflon coating needs to be done but i'd suggest you get this done from some place else cos JMB says it does it but now i feel they have charged me for something that hasnt been done on the bike.

3. I'd suggest you get your bike serviced from some other dealer, i changed my SVC after the second service since i wasnt satisfied with the quality of the work done at JMB.

No such thing as Telfon coating for your vehicle! demand to see the 'Teflon' when they come up empty handed slap everyone there, at least that way you get your VFM!
