Hey guys .. i am facing a problem since few days .. when ever i park my r15 under direct sunlight constantly for more than 20 mins. and then ride it , a mild alarm sounds off the bike for 15-20 secs. and then fades away .. i checked the manual and there is no description of what is it ? has anybody else in here faced this kind of problem ...

Replaced my Racing ball kit of R15, Headlight entire assembly with the black tinted windshield of V2, The front cowl of headlight assembly that i got dint had the white strip and R15 wrote like other V1 R15 has got, Got it 180 /- rs cheaper than the stickered one though.

Now she handles better. Any suggestion on how to remove small scratches sorrounding the tank and the dull shade happened in the area around the tank lid.

From my post a couple of pages back. I strongly advise you not to change tyre specifications.

As I continue to use the original rims, the rear tyre has 'bunched up' and I have ended up with a profile which is higher than the original 100/80 MRF tyre despite the new tyre having a lower profile. The front seems okay. This has slightly raised the height of the bike as well as causing the bike to lean sharper when on the side-stand. There is also a noticeable loss in speed when riding above 100kmph.

Any ideas how much a suitable rim for a 120/70 section tyre will cost me and where is this available in Mumbai or Pune? If available, will this rim and 120/80 tyre fit without modification in the swing-arm?

All in all, I think this is probably one of the most silliest things I have done and do not recommend this to anyone.

I recently did a short 150 Km trip to Pune and the angle of the bike ended up giving me a pain in the neck and back. Not to mention the drop in top speed - couldnt go above 115Kmph.

I have now reverted back to the original MRF Nylogrip Zappers R 100/80 and F 8/90 and the bike is immediately back to its old self. The tyre set cost me 3600/- from the MRF showroom incl. fitting.

Guys, does the R15's stickers come separate or do we have to buy that part..??
If it is available, can someone tell me the rate of stickers. Its not available here...

anyone have any idea of a service center near WAKAD/ Hinzewadi/Aundh area in PUNE, where I can get my R15 V1 serviced? Too tired to goto wakdewadi/ MG Road everytime..

Since this being the ownership thread, could you guys please let me know how comfortble the R15 V2 is if I take her on a long ride (300 KM in a day) ?

Also howz the overall on an average servicing cost of this beauty?
