        It is good but in dense city traffic you will struggle due to lack of torque at lower revs.

        It is very good for touring. I am 6 feet tall and have not had any problem with riding position on long rides...

        rusting in some parts,chain requires lubing (every 500-700kms), the main problem is poor after sales service provided by Yamaha dealers...

          Ah I am glad that I am a laggard in booking the R15, I get access to so many first hand experts

          So what do you suggests is the best setup for lamps... and would that mean any change in battery n all?

            @Satyen: Using 2 55/60 would burn ur reflectors. Best combo would be a HID on one side and a 55/60 on the other. Saves u from the cops and gives brilliant lighting too.

              Last two weekends I wasted my time at Pearl Yamaha and I'm not gonna visit 'em again for some reasons. Back to Venkatesha.... Sorry dude....

                Change your low beam to 60/55 w like philips vision plus(Rs.250) or night breaker(Rs.700) that should do for you

                  I am a bit slow when it comes to the 'tech' part of the bulbs
                  So can you suggest model names that I can throw to the hardware guy
                  Wouldnt the HID need some work as well?

                  Edit: Thanks Mithun, any reason on why so much price difference!

                    I use a bi-xenon. Its just plug and play. And the nightbreaker is also plug and play. Ask for a 4300K - 6000K bi-xenon HID. Anything more than that and its a waste!

                      No idea man but Night breaker is good compared to Vision plus but aint that great when price is considered

                              No problemmo! Actually Pearl is the most recommended place in Hyderabad, that is what I have been told by members here. Bad that you had a hard time with them. Goodluck!
