    BTW this dry-thingy has happened with me.

    I returned from a certain place, and there was negligible fuel in the tank. When I went out to refuel the next day, every time I was turning, and the bike leaned, it was switching off. I had to press the clutch (mid-corner!) get it vertical again, and re-start the bike.

    Happened 4-5 times and it completely went dry 100mtrs before the pump. Paddle-pushed the bike in, re-fueled right till the top. Then when I switched it on, the fuel pump sound didn't sound right. Similar symptoms as GPfreak. Bike started giving lower response.

    I just rode it hard (large throttle openings, almost full throttle couple of times) in 3rd, 4th & 5th, and now the bike is back to normal.
    You get the point?? :D

          Dont worry Gp , nothings gonna happen to ur pump or anything.
          Fill up fuel again , Give it some kms , 50 -100 , then it ll be back to normal.

          If still persists , then open the throttle body ,clean and re assemble ,
          Will be ready to go again.

            Thats sweet to hear. Will update after some 100km or a couple of days.
            If not will clean every darn thing. So much of rust in the tank's mouth

              Hey guys, I just want to know whether the bike gets pushed sideways when there is a heavy cross wind since it is the first bike in India with a full fairing..... Pardon my ignorance on this, just outta of curiosity....

                Yes it does.. and it is the only thing that scares the sh*t out of me while riding!
                I have to come down to 50-70km/h to resist the winds.

                  guys, today the r15 stalled and stopped for no reason..

                  there is no battery though! i am push starting the bike! will it be because of that? i have enough fuel too..

                  what could be the reason?

                  the orange light is glowing! but i was able to ride the bike for the past week like this!

                  hope its not any engine cease!
                  A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

                  Always be ready (get geared) to fall and then think of sitting on the motorcycle.

                    I had asked you to do some checks remember!
                    Try them again and check how many slow and fast flashes happen if the bike can do self test....

                      Have run out of fuel about 5-6 times. No issues. Just filled up some fuel and continued riding again. No performance related problems either!

                          ^^ hope you are not talkin about the bardahl fuel additive. thats not really gonna clean the injector.

                          Buy pennzoil injector cleaner ~ 35 bucks, mix before filling fuel tank to full. I use it every 3000 kms on my bike..
