  • Yep, No ECU Remaps or Performance changes to R15 as said by the one of the disigner of R15 at R15 Championship at Chennai on 19th. He also said that there wont be any changes to R15 or can be called as upgrades. It will remain unchanged (What is left to add in it?? , May be good headlamps).

    Also said that Yamaha has just launched Synthetic Engine oil for R15 (Not specifically) and will be on sales shortly.

            Probably a mule or something... An ass (meant as donkey) might be a better option, as you will easily be able to communicate with it.
            And God said, "Let there be light" and there was HID Kit. And God saw that the light was good;

            • Headlamps...

              Hi Fellow r15 riders,

              I have just bought an R15 yesterday and am truly impressed by the bike. Read all though this forum filled with wonderfull information before making my decision.

              I ride my bike for the only purpose of touring and night trawls in city with my buddies.

              Ok, my first question... In Dipper mode,i only see one side bulb lit up whereas in Beam mode both bulbs are lit up. Is this by design or is it that one of my bulbs is faulty ???

              Thanks
              Suhail

                    • Buddy, nothing against it but as per my touring experience 20-30% on a highway is vast improvement.

                        Yes i know.. But if the battery was of bigger capacity we could have fit more power full lights.. Still amazed how they did all this in 3.5 A battery

                        • Well... all i say is finally somebody who loves to make clever rides ..... nothing against any other brands.. but Honda/Yama are definitely ahead technologically in Indian Market, atleast in my opinion.

                          I hope nobody takes offense to it as its just a personal opinion.

                          • I went to showroom today to pick up T/R and also visited service station and requested the guy over there to lower the gear shift and he did it in few minutes. I'm comfortable with it now. I was disappointed when he told that same can't be done with rear break lever

                                cheers mate, all has been good so far in initial 100kms.. using premium fuel as suggested, just the one light on dipper is irritating
