        If anyone know what is the problem in front sprocket.. Oil leakage from front sprocket drive
        It leak from o'ring or inner side of crankcase...
        And this full set chain sprocket is only 8k kms run..
        Now front drive worn....

          The front sprocket looks ok, but the chain is in bad shape. if you continue running a chain in this condition, it will wear out the sprocket faster and might even snap.
          Make it a point to maintain a clean and lubed chain.
          I can't spot a leak, but its very common for chain lube to collect in the front sprocket area and sometimes leak down.. happens all the time on my duke. If it indeed is a leak from crank case, then the only fix would be to replace the offending seal for a permanent fix

            Well I think since last 8k kms you did not get the chain cleaned or lubed. If you continue to ride like this, you will damage it complete. An O-Ring chain needs to be cleaned and lubed every 1000kms when it is more than 1000km old. When new you need to do it twice for every 1000km at every 500km interval.

            In present condition take it to the SVC and get it checked. The chain looks that it may need to be replaced. See if it can be cleaned and lubed.

            Save the Earth - We are the one who are running out of time, as Earth will take it own time to heal but that time may not be enough for us.

                Seeing the condition of chain , i am surprised that sprocket and chain didn't snap till now. Kudos to Yamaha's Quality for this.

                There is a oil seal behind front sprocket that has worn off ,most probably due to overfilling of engine oil. Change it and leak will stop.

                Also please clean chain and lube it .

                    In that case brother, you need to clean and lube the chain more frequently. 500-600 odd km (mentioned in the manual) is just a representational figure.
                    Never let the chain run dry.

                      I will put it in different manner , chain is like sole of your feet and oil in chain is like shoes. When shoes get dirty we clean it , we cannot govern ambient or road conditions for state of our shoes , and sooner or later it will affect our feet . Same for bike , since you ride in dust a lot , it means clean chain a lot .

                      Also i see some scratch marks on front sprocket like someone used a screwdriver or stick to clean it. Dont do it.

                      Use some chain cleaner spray from Diamond or Motul (2-300Rs) which will clean chain. Then use Rolon or Motul chain lube.

                      Point is you can either ride like this and chain will break any moment without notice or clean it and use.

                        i have heard this whine on another r15 v1, and i was told it is normal. Something to do with the fuel pump. I am still skeptical if it is indeed normal.
                        Pl get it checked at the svc, it is probably some wiring issue.. get the earthing checked.

                            Thats normal, I have been hearing it since 2010 and last 1 lac kms. Its absolutely normal dont worry about it. The whining noise is from the petrol tank.

                            But when you saying that Battery becomes weak, you need to highlight on this more clearly.
