Ok did a bit of searching on ye'ol ECU remap topic.

Turns out the particular ECU we are looking for can be found in Malaysia / Indonesia . If you have any cha cha, mama coming from there then tell them to bring the "yamaha ego ecu", it is something used on the V-xion bike. -::- Yamaha Motor Indonesia - The Official Website -::- (look at the engine specs closely)

Apparently this ECU will allow you to rev higher.

( If you screw up your bike/body in the process of pulling this off i shouldn't be held responsible. I have absolutely no way of verifying the above information. This search was the result of caffeine induced googling, to get rid of some boredom. And if you do win any races with this no need to share any credits either

Need help urgently....

Yesday on my way back from office, my bike got punctured. I took the bike to near by MRF tyre shop. On Inspection we found dat the puncture was caused due to 1 inch tear caused in tyre due to a metal piece(still in tyre

). Dat metal piece went right thru d grip gap(where thickness is less

)
So dey said either I have to use a tube or buy a new tyre

..

Guys plz tell me is this d only option. I can't think of changing tyres in jus 5K kms. Please advice....

Is R15 tyres tires available in market now( dis MRF dealer told dat it's not available in market till now

). If yes where can I get it in Chennai...

Help

I own the paddock stand, and stand by it. Its good and a steal at 1500.
But....

I don't get why you need the paddock stand for the R15. Use the provision for attaching the centre stand, and remove it when you want to ride.

He is right. The paddock stand only helps you in repairing the rearwheel/chain issues. If you need to do something with the front wheel you'll need a front stand as well. So, better than the paddock stand is the metal stand which'll cost around 600-700 and is small enough to be carried along. And you can repair the front/rear using it as the weight of the bike can be tranferred to the fron/rear.

But rossiter, the paddock is pretty sturdy and the bike feels very stable with it. Also, she looks neat when on it

Atleast the paddock stand gives the bike a SBK'ish look rossiter! Why are u spoiling us of that fun?

BTW what is that main stand u guys are talking about? where do u get that? Does Yamaha sell any?

Apar, is it not enough that the R15 looks like a mini R1?

In any case, a paddock stand is good and has its own advantages I guess.

As for the stand, it's a removable centre stand which is fixed under the bike with the help of a rod. Mithun and me saw it while we were at BW last month. I think he'll have the info on the cost etc.

No air leaks from the tyre?

Nope. I rode over 200 kms after the incident and the bike is standing on the tyres for a week since then (lost wallet, so no money until I get my new Debit Card even to get the bike cleaned!). Checked pressure Y'day and it is at its usual 29.

Now My rear tyre has this problem ever since... The pressure comes down to 29 psi in one day (haven't checked earlier than this). I have even tried filling the air to 35 psi instead of 33psi but the same story. Even Nitrogen didn't help. Checked it twice. Will complain that to service center... but does anyone else have this problem?

Not really... I made 5 or 6 trips and had a small sliding fall once and this pothole now. Let me tell you, I take on numerous pot holes and speed brakers in every ride at higher speeds than this but this is the first instance of damage to the alloy... I am still happy with the way the bike performs and with the quality of parts.

BTW, does anyone know the cost of the rear allow?

Guys, the paddock stand from Yamaha is very good in quality but as some of you have mentioned above, I don't find much use for it and hence got a center stand made (small adjustment to be done yet). I have used the center stand in my previous two trips and it's been really useful (I carry it in my tank bag).

I did not take pics of the one I got made but here are the pics of the one at service center (that I copied)

No need to go to any yamm centre , its ur fault here , open the seat , remove the battery, get it charged for 8 hours and then its be alright ,

u expect a 3.5ah battery to support 70 watts of power when ur not even charging it ???

dude next time avoid it , what if u went somewhere at night and did this amazing thing , hw will u get back home.

push start it and leave the engine on for sometime now , let it get charged. else get the battery charged.
