      NO

      you cant fit that onto R15 unless you cut the swingarm which is strictly not reccommended.

                      haven't noticed anything at all really. except now the bike feels more masculine. also the rear tire of the r15 was shifted to the front and the skinny front tire was taken out. the bike looks really good (when washed-- i rarely clean/wash it).

                        Ok, Let me tell you. It looks like its still on R15's rims.


                        Okie, Finally decided to go for IRIDIUM in my R15.

                        So any reviews by a owner using it or heard about it? I guess we need to pair it up with Spitfire cables..!

                            the stock rims r still there , looks like a 140 sec tyre has been fitted to 100 sec rims .
                            i am not sure it is safe and also the fz tyres r compleatly SHOT NO GRIP IN THEM
                            you hav been taken for a "ride" by them

                              Two things:

                              1. Do not post such huge images directly on the thread. If you want to post pictures in a thread, first, resize the image(s) to 800x600 and then post. However, if you DO want to share such large pictures, then better you provide only the thumbnail version (clickable ofcourse) on the thread.

                              2. Do not post consecutively, one post after the other. I believe since you are a part of xBhp, you must be well versed with the forum etiquette.
                              :)

                                but i haven't felt any abnormalities. and i hope i don't.
