    Those wire seem to go in throttle body Fast idle solenoid. If it seems to work fine, then probably wires #still conduct well enough.
    Clad them up with that electric insulating tapes ASAP.


    By the way, I had a mouse living in air box of my bike too. Got pretty friendly with him, never ate a single wire off.

            If you're running stock headlamps and no other electrical mods like horn etc. Then stock Tata Green is best option.

                Can someone please identify which those chewed up wires are and its implications? The bike starts perfectly, and no warning cluster lights light up. So im thinking its not serious, if god continues to be benevolent.

                Ever since last jan, i have been unfaithful to my darling r15. In fact i neglected her. I wanted to tell her i love her, in the intermittent rides we had. But that wasn't enough, i was seduced by a red foxwagen polo. Im sorry. i want her back! Because im a dog and i like sticking my head out with my tongue lolling about. 😝

                So yesterday i got d clutch cable replaced, as it had snapped. Also changed engine oil and filter. Then when i ws goin to clean air filter i noticed these wires. Please help.

                That's the connection to idle solenoid as [MENTION=67486]Tanmay26[/MENTION] said I think rats have an affinity for this wire it was totally ripped n disconnected in my case but still no lights popped up

                    Re: tinted visors

                    Heyy fellow R15 riders!! I\'ve been riding my bike for 5 years now and i finally have the time and the patience to do a few changes. I have two questions:

                    1. Can i get any super short clutch and brake levers?? I currently have the short levers installed and i am not satisfied, i want something shorter. Any info would be appreciated
                    2. I installed a new rear tyre recently, cause the stock was busted after 5 years of use, its a 120/70 i believe. One thing I noticed is that the clearance on the right side (from the swingarm) is shorter than that on the left side, should i be worried about this??


                    Well, those are my questions, it would be rally appreciated if anyone could help me with those

                      probably would be direct fit, I have v2 front stay on v1 2008 as they told me when I claimed insurance. Front mast is also of v2, so 99% there won\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'t be any problem, direct fit. Go for it.

                      Why not just cut stock ones off, shorty levers would worth as much as stocks or near about. I have a short clutch lever. If you are into stunt riding then I would advise you not to cut off the front lever.

                      2.I installed a new rear tyre recently, cause the stock was busted after 5 years of use, its a 120/70 i believe. One thing I noticed is that the clearance on the right side (from the swingarm) is shorter than that on the left side, should i be worried about this??

                      Tyre you are talking about is probably 120/80 MRF vyde, I am using the same and no problem so far. Yes clearance at right is very very small indeed.

                        I am using Michelin Pilot Sporty 120/80, i\\\'ve had some nasty issues with mrf, so I gave up on the company

                        Hi, thank you for your response. I also wanna know if getting the racing brake rotor and calipers are worth it, and if the K&N air filters actually provide a boost in the bike performance

                        I just ordered the rear brake rotor, the seat assay and a few nifty little parts (rear brake reservior, electrical leads, a bunch of plastic/rubber covers), since mine have worn out from years of riding. Found this website called indiaspares.com you can pick and select exactly what part you want, and they sell everything individually from the small nuts and bolts to complete transmission assay.

                        Its time to take care of my beautiful baby


                        EDIT: Does anyone know where to get one of the rear (and possibly front) paddock stands, or designs to have one built??

                          AFAIK K nd N doesn\'t increase much performance alone. You need to have all other things done with it and then use this for easy breathing of engine. Can\'t say about rotors, But if i were you I would order larger front rotor then rear. Most stopping power is on front so I need more torque there than rear more, although most people use rear still.

                              You wont need larger calliper or something mate, what you will need is a bracket to move that calliper that far away as increase diameter of disc would interfere. That is all you need.

                              See the backer below, it is between calliper and stock mount points on the fork leg. That grey-ish thing.

                                OK, thanks for the info

                                Can you tell me a bit about how you lift your bike?? I\'ve been tryna find online dealers that sell the rear paddock stand, but havent been having any luck so far
