    Finally got chance to get a hand on this beast.. that too after a year of its launch..

    R15 didn't made a rider out of me... but its handling was so fine that even i felt like rossi on the corners... Sad could not take it to the speed i expected... discovered a new place... can be called paradise... PROS: superb handling... superb pickup... attention getters CONS: takes time getting used to its riding position... sucks with a pillion on board (except its ur girlfren)...

        Yep the R15's windshield is more rakish than the Fazer's. Fazer's is a bit more upright.

              hey guys just clocked 9.5 k on odo, and my next service is around the corner, so was wondering can I go for K&N filter, what are its pros and cons? I for one reason am interested for its peculiar nice sound and i presume there wont be any increase in performance though, due to its FI. If yes then which filter?
              Guys who have retrofitted projectors or have some depth in the subject, could you plz let me know which is the best option for projector without straining the Battery, The skoda projectors or the Pulsar220 one, since i think only the prior one is 35w/35w. Or do i have an option for HID Projectors , specially the BI-xenon, I must admitt that I'am more of persion who appreciate performance in priority but I have something in mind with the projectors, so any help from buddy Bhpians???

                @Garry_rxz&sveetvenom: Trust me on this, the R15's rear seat is much better than the CBZ-X, RTR&also FZ. My close friends have these bikes&we ride pillion pretty often on them.
                I would feel happy that a sportbike has better rear seat than the other street bikes!

                                Your bike is way better than babes,only thing is that you need a proper vision to mull over this fact. :D
