      Good:-)
      Did a paid service...oil and brake pads changed...odo stands at 11k kms
      need to break in the brakes.....how much kms one has to do for the pads to break in(I know, the amount of braking is what will depend for the pads to bed in but approx. how much kms?)

          Dude its better tat you need not go for any air filters!!! because r15 is loaded wit good air filter by default! and if yo goin for k&n you got to make some holes which may take lotta dust! according to my friend's experience! so check out! but no from my side!! Happy ridin!!! enjoy your babe!!!!!!

              Hey friends,

              Yesterday evening while riding on a smooth road i was ripping at 90+ and suddenly one idiot came out of nowhere, i used my both brakes and somehow maneuvered the obstacle, but after that i observed my rear was sliding too much, also when i pressed the front brake hard in straight line it was making tak tak kinda noise. Though i replaced front disc pads 600 kms back. Also when i left the steering at low speeds of 50, i observed the bike was tilting towards left. My bike is close to finish 1 year and 14000 kms on the odo.

              Please advice what to check.

                Looks like your cone set is going. Get it checked/greased. My bike is also facing similar problems with the handle pulling to the right&sometimes feeling heavy at low speeds.

                      looks nice but i doubt that it would fit directly...
                      worth a tr if maybe you have another vehicle to fit it on, just in case!
                      else try something else, something that you get locally maybe?

                        hmmm...no other vehicle. since I fitted the High beam with 55/60W bulb, was thinking of LED for tail lamp. not getting a direct fit anywhere.

                          Two things-1stly check whether the tail lamp wattage is the same. Next, I feel you need a clear lens cover to give the right effect. Even my indicator lens covers were replaced with clear ones when I got the LED accessory indicators.

                            the light is of 4-5W I guess. Wattage wont be much prob I guess because I replaced the 5W pilot lamps with 2W LEDs

                              well, if thats the reason, then you may as well leave it at that. i've been using a 60/55w bulb on the low beam, riding both on the highway and mainly city with varying traffic conditions...just a few precautions and there hasn't been an issue since long, keeping in mind the horrid reputation of the minda battery i have in the box!!
