    Woah neat co incidence... My chain gave up today... it was on the last tensioner level and the ODO reads about 19k + KMs
    The rear sprocket shows definite wear and tear due to the muck and sand!

    I am quite ok with the fact that it lasted this much, as I have been riding too hard and too much!

    Has anyone tried using an aftermarket chain tensioner on the R15? I was kinda wondering if I should go that route as the SVC here doesnt have the chain+sprocket kit...
    +1..
    done close to 18000 kms...have to say the same... but here in blr we have the whole set available but alas my pocket does not allow me currently.

          I'm Missing Pages 10.17-10.29 (inclusive of both)

          Can anyone brief me about those missing pages. What can those be? And is it necessary for the dealer to tear each and every one of the pages from 10.17 to 10.29

                • Guys, am finally a part of the R15 club. YAY! Probably am the 2nd xBhpian in Hyderabad (after BOOO) to get an Impact Yellow R15 a.k.a. Taxi.

                  The bike felt just AWESOME to me (even under 5k RPM) probably because my previous bike is a HH passion plus, but I don't care, I'm just in love with the bike (both) ! Took a loooong route home from the showroom with bro as pillion, and tried adjusting to the position, absolutely no discomfort in my back. But palms and right wrist were a little uncomfortable (ya I know not to put weight on my arms, am not doing that) but I guess now its only a matter of time till I get used to it.

                  Impact yellow looks AMAZING. Ppl on the road were just staring at it, I was sure some accident would happen because everytime I overtook any two wheeler, 50% of the time both the rider and pillion stared at my bike when I was passing (and I was looking and enjoying their reaction)

                  ..Thank God for everything that's happened til' now, and thanks to dad n mom for support, and to bro for enthu !! .. I wanna thank all those who've been a part of this thread and more importantly a part of xBhp, you've helped me get my blurry dreams into focus and to work towards them.

                  Gonna have a bite to eat n go roaming ... a few pics will be uploaded in the evening!

                  Cheerio!

                                bhai, its not palm pain, its wrist pain.. at the joint. More pronounced on the right hand probably due to throttle usage in unfamiliar position. I dunno if gloves will really help. I am really not putting any pressure on the hands, am holding the tank properly with legs.
